The three offices “combined for the first time since 1907. r. Heydler vru mimou!ly three years. ent * since of ohn K. Tener last had acted -as president m\ca Pl" ly after the death of President Pulliam in 1909 until his successor, ThHomas “J. Lynch, was elected. Mr. Heydler is thoroughly ponversant with every detail of the national game, having been connected with the National ‘League executive |office for the past fifteen years. Mr. Heydler was born Lefargeville, N. Y. July 10,-1869. His first pro- fessional eperience in' baseball was as a National League umpire in 1898 when the double umpire system was- first -established.. r to that he was a writer on Sporting Life and the Wash- ington Star and. subsequently he was sporting editor ‘of the ' Washington Post. In 1902 at the request of Pres- jdent Pulliam, Mr. Heydler compiled the, National League averages for that season and he became the president's private secretary in , 1903. In 1907 when the office of president-Secretary- treasurer of the National League was split,” Mr. Heydler was appointed sec- retary, a position he has filled very effectively ever since. The rules were changed so that in the future the board of directors will consist of four members and the pres- ident, ex-afficio, who will have a vote in case of a tie. Messrs. Herrmann, Cincinnati; Dbbets;’ Brooklyn: Balker, Philadelphia, and Hempstead, New York, were elected as directors for the ensuing yéar. There was no discussion as to the length of neft season’s playing sched- ule or of a joint session with the American league, but action on eithier or both is expected to be taken at to- morrow’s session. Up._to a late hour tonizht the league members ' were debating proposed changes .in the constitution and by- laws of the organization. President Baker ‘of th> Philadelphia National League club, offered. the po- sition of manager, made vacant by the unconditional release of Pat Moran, to FPitcher Jack Coombs, Coombs informed President Baker late tonight that he would not accept the offer. deeufl for a term ‘e’ had been act tho resl!m MINOR BASEBALL LEAGUES FOR SELF-DETERMINATION New York, Dec. 10.—The National Association of Minor Leagzue Baseball Clubs stands for self-dstermination, according to-a statement made here tonight by President John H. Farrell. Referring to a report from Chicago to the efféct’ that A, F. Prestdent Johnson of the American appéd. out 2’ pr me undar which the nation1l ‘commission | would become the sole adminis ive pawer in settling disputes of major lnld minor leagues alike,r Mr. Farrell said: 4 | “Mr. Tearney is not ‘a member of the National Association ard Xas no authority to formulate any change in the governmental section . of the: tional ‘agreement. % “There are nine aciive lzagues in our.association and I have received assurances from all of them that they desire to govern their ~owa ailairs through the National Association of Minor Leagues; taking care of their own contracts, which run into thou sands; maintaining otfiginal jurisdic- tion over their own disputes, of which there are hundreds, and handling the sale of players betwean their’ ow club members, believinz absoiutely. the ‘principle of seif government which is advocated thmuglmut the world.” YALE NINE MAY BE MISSING 1 IN COLLEGE LEAGUE New York, Dec. 10.—The annual meeting of the National = Collegiate Athletic association, which will be held in this city late this month, is anxiously awaited in: college cir- cles. It is felt that this will: be the most important meeting in the history of the national body—one tiat will possibly mark an cpoch in iatercol- legiate sports. There is no desire on the part .of the men who are in charge "of the athletic activities of the = colleges throughout the country lo ‘zo_ahead with 'anything” until the N. A, A delegates have been heard from, and. as well, it is possible that the War department may have a thing or two to say about athletic conditions of the future. The attitude of one of expectation. the At is “for colleges Yale, instance, not a movee has. been made to start up teams for sports in spite-of the fact that all .need of' a continuation of the ban on gen- eral athletics has disappeared. It is felt at New Haven that starting things now would be going ahead in the dark, as it were. It is already known that New Ha- | excedding] ven that any activities that are at- tempted next - spring will be on, a much reduced dnd more economi- cal basis. Coaches will be few and every alleged extravagant: fea- ture of the pre-war days will be missing. It is believed. though, that Yale will be represented on the* baseball diamond, on the wa- ter, and in track and field athletics during the coming spring season. chairmen of the lnited States Stéel Corporation respecting future indus- trial conditions,*stocks today opened with a firm undertone, gathering greater etrength and breadath as the session progressed.

President Harry Hempstead of ‘the Giants _announces his club §s not for sale. President Harry Frazee of the Red Sox makes a similar but hardly new announcement. It is now square- 1v up to Connie Mack to inform the public that the Athletics do not in- tend to quit the American league.: One big advantage in having col- leges make tennis a major sport lies in the alluring fact that tickets for the Harvard-Yale .match would not be so hard for the general public to obtain. It is evident that the football rules are going to be . changed to pro- vide for just such a situation -as arose at the recent game between Navy and Great Lakes at Annapolis.

These are the facts. on which the rulemakers will work when they start making up the pres- ent deficiency in the code. ¢ Columbia, ‘Weslevan, Pennsylivania, Lehigh. Princeton and Yale are among the colleges that may play basketball this winter. Cornell and -Dartmouth will probably remain idle. Little bas- ketball is expected from any of the schools for at least six weeks. Technical high school students be- llieve that when their school basket- mall team “gets going,” it will show up all other ‘school teams. That may be true, but the fact is it is time for the get-going. process. TWO NORWICH MEN ON BROWN CCMMITTEE Prown university is-only one of the four hundrei colleges of the country which have turned over aimost their entire course of instruction, for the school year commencing October 1, 1918, to the government fof the train- ing of their boys for officers for the army: Brown, howéver, 1s zlmost alone in having a navy unit. It was es- Pecially Tavored for this department ! of training as the college 1s so close- 1y in touch with the gre: tion at Newport. It had seven hun-| dred boys in the S. A. T. C. and naval unit. In fact there were only fifty of the whole number of boys who did not elect to take one of these courses. The government tcok entire charge of the college campus and the hill was and still is, a regular military camp. The boys are under special charge ' and training of United States government -officers turning out at qua:ier of six every morning and breakfasting at six thirty, with.drill and study until ten o'clock p. m., when every iight has to be out. No boy ean get ontd the cam- pus after that hour without his pass. Much of the study hour: are spent in study devoted to higher mathema- tics ‘or civil engineering. This train- ing has woaderfully developed boys into men and they have learred the les- son of obedience, such as many of them never had had at home. It is claimed that this college camn has had few equals in this training and no su- periors. The corporation and faculty and the friends of this college, lika every oth- er college, felt the thing to do under the circumstances was to grant the wish of the government for the train- :ng of the boyvs and obayed the call to arms at once. If, however, it had been known, -tht the war was 1o end’ so quickly, probably such a change would never have heen thought of. Now the war is ended the problem which all .of the colleges have to solve is how is the best way to get back to its former college activities. This i change and cther war conditions have caused a great deficit in cvery college: : 1t is estimated that at Frown $150,000 will ‘be required for this vear to meet the deficit- caused by thess war’ con- ditions. A meeting comprising -one member from each of the last sixty graduating classes was held last evening at the University club in Providence to ar- range for the procuring of this amount. Adams P. Carroll ahd Lucius Brown of this city were appointed class agents of ‘their classes to assist in this work, and were present as such at the mesting held last evening. There ‘were present at this meeting one mem- ber from each of the y classes with three exceptions.

Jacobs, president of the Jacobs Manufactur- ing Company was granted permission by Judge Donald T. Warner, in the superior court last week to file a cross complaint in the divorce action pend- ing in the court against him by Gladys W. Jacobs. Mrs, Jacobs charges her husband with intolerable cruelty, and in the cross complaint her husband accuses her of infidelity, naming her former chauffeur, Joh: Hynes, charging that the two commi ted the acts alleged both in their sum- mer home in New London and in their home on Beverly Road, West Hart- ford. The attorney for Mrs. Jacobs ob- jected to the filing of the cross bill, stating that he did not think it was done in good faith on the part of Mr. Jacobs, He said it was, in his opin- ion, offered for the purpose of squeez- ing Mrs. Jacobs’ demands for alimony down. -~ The first claim was §50,000 Mr. Clarke pointed out, and then Mr. Jacobs squeezed it down to $30,000, then to $15000 and now offers the cross ~complaint instead.
