New York, Oct. 36~—President John K. Tener of the National league issued a statement here tonight replying to a statement credited to President Ban B. Johnson of the American league in Milwaukee yesterday in reference to the much-discussed ‘McGraw inci- dent” Johnson is reported to have criticized the National league for what he considered its failure to rebuke John McGraw, ma: of the New York Giants, for his denouncement of his players in the game which won Brooklyn the National league pennant. “In Tegard to President Johnsom's second reference to the McGraw inci- dent,” reads President Teners state- ment, “it i4, like the first, pure bun- combe.

It is being intimated on apparently very good authority that important changes involving the Pittsburgh and Chicago National league clubs are about to be made. These rumors are to the effect that when the 1917 season begins Jimmy Callahan, now manager of the Pirates, will be at the helm for the Chicago Cubs, and that Joe Tinker, present S of the Cubs, will be without & job. It is well known in baseball circles that Callahan and Barney Dreyfuss almost reached the parting point last summer through an act of Callahan’s, and that Dreyfuss s pretty certain to be looking for e new manager. It is not believed Callahan is on tne Pitts- burgh reserve list, although his con- tract is sald to call for another year of service in Pittsburgh. Callahan had a fairly good year in Pittsburgh and has improved _the Pirates to some extent, but his differ- ences with Dreyfuss, it is said, are sufficient to cause the owner of the club to seek Callahan's release. Most_men intimate with the affairs of the Pirates believe Fred Clarke will head the team next year. The former manager of the Pirates has not said anything in regard to the rumor. He repeatedly has stated thar he is through “with the game. He has a large farm In Kansas and it takes all his_time to look after it. Chick Fraser, veteran scout for the Pirates and old-time pitcher, also has| been mentioned as a probable succes- sor to Callahan, A change such as that suggested, which would take Callahan back to Chicago, probably would be welcomed | by Callahan. He is well liked in Chi- cago. Probably no more popular man ever led a baseball club in that city. And a man so thoroughly effieient in team building as Callahan’ would be a_most welcome figure in the ranks of the Cubs. Callahan's family lives in Chi- cago and his heme is there. Stockholders of the Cubs are said to be crying loudly over the payroll of the Cubs, and Owner Weeghman is reported to be lending an attentive car following a year in which Joe Tinker wrecked the Cubs and paid out a barrel of money for youtaful players who have done very little. The stock- holders are believed to be ‘making a demand for a slash in Tinker's salary and it is thought certain Weeghman will attempt. fo pare scme’ when Tin- ker shows up to sign the papers again. Tinker is Hke the average man—he wants all the’ money he can get. So it is probable he will raise a rumpus and then, if things can be adjusted, it will be Weeghman's cue to drop Tinker and sign Callahan for the lead- ership of the club. This deal is not expected to be men- tioned until the National league magnates gather in New York the second weelc in December, and then severa! trades cooked up already are expected to be dropped on the public. Wilbert Robinson, Miller Huggins and George Stallings have had their ears to the ground for a long time, and some sensational swaps are likel. NOVELTY PLAYS LACKING THIS YEAR IN FOOTBALL Majors Eleven Fail to Show Anything New on Gridiron. New Yor so-called “m t. 25.—Althoush the elevens have round- mark and are plung- ing headlong into the more important tages of their campaign, the gridiron season has so far failed to develop anything in the natu v play. Various team | mented more or less freely with riety of shifts and forward pasSes, but for the most part have been modifications, most of them tollowing closely along -the lines of the models they were patterned after plays that were developed at Yale and Harvard in other years. The only “new” plays that have ex- cited any serious comment in expert cles were the maneuvers with which Tufts encompassed the defeat of Har- vard on Oct. 7, and with which the Medford boys tried vainly to bewilder Princeton a week later. The Tufts hift and the passing game employed the same team received no end of publicity after the Crimson had been humbled, and were acclaimed in some quarters’ as brand new developments, whereas they were merly adaptations of the once famous Shevlin shift and the aerial game that was so popular at Yale during the first year of the Hinckey regime. But if the first half of the season has been singularly devoid of anything that could properly be labeled as strictly origiyal, there are many zood believing that the second half will be otherwise. Already Yale and Harvard are indulging with un- wonted freedom in various “open” for- mations that are customarily held in reserve until after the first of Novem- ber, and it is not at all likely that they wollld make such persistent use of the forward pass in its simpler forms if they were not planning something of a kindred but vastly more complicated nature for use later on. Of the three elevens which are ac- customed to dictating .the abiding place of the eastern championship, only Princeton has shown a tendency to cling fast to a straightaway run- ning game, and this is largely ac- counted for in the fact that Speedy Rush is devoting much of his energy to building up a defense calculated to stop the admittedly powerful offense of the Yale machine under process of construction under Tad Jones' capa- ble direction. In none of their games to date have the Tigers strayed more than a_few uncertain steps from the path of the strictly orthodox. Against Tufts the Tigers made few half-hearted stabs at forward passing, but the play was so perfectly obvious that it was easily “smeared” by the alert young men of the opposition. CORNELL SQUAD OF 25 LEAVES FOR CAMBRIDGE Ithacan Football Players Get Sendoff When They Left to Meet Harvard on Saturday. Ithaca, N. Y., Oct. 26.—The Cornell football squad OF 25 players left Itha- ca tonight for Cambridge, where on Saturday they will meet Harvard. The squad_was given a rousing send-off by a big crowd of students. “Don’t bet on Cornell unless you can afford it,” was Head Coach Al Sharpe’s advice to the undergraduates before he left. “If the breaks are with us we are_golng to come through,” he added, however. Captain Mueller sald the team would try to duplicate the 1915 victory over Harvard. ANNUAL FALL REGATTA AT YALE POSTPONED Will be Rowed on Harbor Instead of Housatonio on .Nov. 3.

Cubs and White Sox Are Expected to Have New Leaders. Boston Red Sox, Chicago New York, Oct. 26.—Change in man- agement of major league clubs can usually be depended upon to piece out the off season gossip of baseball. It is not likely that the “winter of 1916 will prove any exception ito the rule. There are two instances—one in each circuit—where a change is bound to come, while gossip names several other pilots as likely to be relieved of their responsibilities before next spring. Bill Carrigan has quit. 'The leader of the world’s champion Red Sox will under no consideration remain in the game. Carrigan had decided to retire before a relative who passed away last summer bequeathed him a_modest for- tune to supplement one of pretentions he already enjoyed. Carrigan had made all plans for a business career at his home town of Lewiston, Me. He will engage in the banking business there. President Joserh J. Lannin of the Red Sox admitted vesterday that he had given up hope of inducing Carrigan to change his mind. “It is not a_question of money,” said Lannin. “It js not a question of any differences with me or any member or members of the tcam. I think I ap- preciated Bill's c: pabilities long before the general public did. If Carrigan should decide to_change his mind, the Job will be open for him. No successor will be appointed while there is the least probabilty or possibility of his recanting. But I confess I believe the clever manager of the Red Sox most sincere in his announced determination to_retire.” Lannin will not intimate who may be appointed to succeed Carrigan if the leader of the Red Sox does not falo club of the International league, has declined the honor. For the last four months there has been talk of a change in the leader- ship of the Chicago White Sox. Clar- ence Rowland, in the opinion of his contemporari has not measured up to really high class standards. Smart managers of the American league maintain that Rowland for the last two seasons has had a ciub 15 or 20 per cent. stronger than the world's champion Red Sox. The return to the White Sox in ca- pacity of coach of Kid Gleason during the last few weeks of the last season has already been interpreted in some quarters as a move by Charles Comis- key to provide a new manager for 1917, This Comiskey has denied. Nat- urally, if the Old Roman intended to let Rowland go, he would ease the blow as much as possible by making the change during the off ‘scason. The great majority of the major league managers of 1916 are protected by term contracts over the coming scason. Cincinnati, the most flighty city of all, has tied itself to Christy Mathewson through 1917 and 101S. The contracts of MeGraw with the Giants and Wilbert Rol son with the Rob- ins both have one more year to go. George Stallings is bound to the Braves to the end of 1920. Pat Moran is un- der contract to the Phillies for next vear. Jimmy Callahan is sure of an- other y I's grace, at least, in Pitts- burgh, unless Dreyfuss sells the club, which is improbable. The same goes for Miller Huggins with the Brittons in St. Louis. American league managers are not 50 well protected Connie Mack at Philadelphia and Clark G: fiths at Washington are stockholde as well as leaders, and consequently beyond the reach of directors’ foibles. Hugh Jennings is bound to Detroit by a term coniract. The same goes for Fielder Jones and the Browns. Bill Donovan has just sigred to lead the Yankees rext year. The owners of the Yankees felt that the Smiling One should have another year in which to perfect his plans. Joe Tinker is doomed to the order of the tin cam, according to informa tion obtainablée from the west. Cha Weeghman, president of the Cubs, is not so friendly as he was to the man that won a pennant In the Federal league with the Chicago Whales. The stockholders thought a_combination of the old Cubs and the Whales would waltz to a National league pennant. When Tinker, who cultivated just such an impression, failed so dismally, the myriad stockholders started = after scalp through Weeghman, it g0, just now, Cincinnati,” sald ont of the Cubs during the last eastern trip of the Chi- cago team. “The ectors hold a star chamber meeting every morning, and discuss ways and means of run- nii the club. Tinker didn't really have a great deal to say, and I am sure he would not continue under ex isting conditions. We understand his contract expires av the end of this year. - There is little Ikelihood of it being renewed.” In Chicago it s sald that Weegh- man and the other directors have be- zun to make a great play for Franlk Chance, who s stil a lion in the ‘Whether Chance would return to the National league is a question. When he left the Yankees he declared he was through with the big show for all time. The Peerless Leader was dis- gusted with the game at that time. He quit to devote his entire at- tention to his California ranch. Later when Chance went back to the game, he entered it as a minor league mag- nate.

The owners of the Cubs might in- duct Chance to return to his first love.

Ted Meredith, holder of the world's half-mile record, has probably run his last championship race at that dis- tance. The probability of Meredith's steer- ing away from all races over 600 yards in the future has nothing ‘whatever to do with his recent defeats in Scandi- navia by J. Bolin, the Swedish mid dle distance champion. Meredith, ever since his triumph in the 00 metre Olympic championship at Stockholm, more than four years ago, has had no hankering to run the longer di tances, and except when preparing for the intercollegiate championships | has consistently avoided races over 600 yards when it was possible to do so. Of course, Meredith has started in a long race at the indoor mecets now and then to please promoters wh wanted to have him appear in _their pecials,” but he has never trained regularly for the half mile, except when the University of Pennsylvania | needed his points in dual meets, or in the intercollegiate championships. In the last four years old Penn’s point column has beén the only factor capa- ble of making. Meredith works hard in training, as he must, to be fit to run the haif, and now that Ted is in- eligible to race for the Red and Blue it’s but natural to supposc that the Quaker flier’s half-mile days are about done. Because of his susceptibility to t ing on weight Meredith has alw been obliged to undergo a long of rigorous training whenever sought to travel the half mile at the wace he is capable of. This thing was wholly possible for him as a_collcge student, but now that he is out in the world hustling to make good it is not likely that Ted will be able to give up the necessary time and make the other sacrifices necessary for him to reacquire the stamina that enabled him to travel the “$80” in better than 1 minute and 53 seconds John McGraw's charges _agains some of the Giants in thelr final se. ries with the Brooklyns will be Io nto by the board of directors of; tl National League.
