HUMOR OF THE DAY “Do you expect to make any mon- ey as an architect?” “I am making plang for that end.”— Harvard Lampoon. “Are you the captain of your soul?® in the Decem-. western and two eastern clubs will be represented on the board and that they would alternate each succeeding year. Late in the day it was rumored that the Brooklyn club had been sold to a syndicate of Brooklyn men, but Presi- dent Ebbets emphatically denied this. Major Branch Rickey, president and manazer of the St. Louis club, was present during the latter part of to- day's meeting after he had explained that there was still a doubt as to whether he or some other person would manage the team next season. The constitution was amended so that any club owner, manager, player or agent convicted of tampering with players belonging to other league clubs would be fined $1,000. Rxpulsion may be the penalty for second-offense. The league voted in favor of a 154 game schedule for the 1920 season, which will open on Wednesday. April 14, subject to the - approval ot tne American league, which will meet here tomorrow. The training season was extended from four to six weeks prior to the onening of the playing season. Mr. Heylder unofficially stated that the lengtHening of the world series to nine games and the new rules for the division of the receipts seemed to find favor among the club owne:s. President Heydler presegted his an- nual report, part of which read as fol- lows: Jn the debit side of our affairs, we can place the ruling of Judge Stafford in the Baltimore suit, that professional baseball is commerce and that the ystem of operating organized baseball s 2 monopoly or an aitempt at monop- oly and therefore in violation of the Sherman law. “This finding has been appealed from to the higher court, which hearing, however, hay not be reached until the spring or summer of 1920. .“The breaking away of the minor from the national agreement may lik wise be viewed unfavorably; for. al- though the majors have not suffere by this breach, yet chaotic conitions are boun to ensue unless proper working unerstandings are re-estabdlishe un- der a central government. The minors have notified us that they have ap- pointed a committee of eight for ti purpose and there is no question as to the wisdom of holding a joint confer- ence. It is my judgment, however, that no new agreement can be entered into except on legal advice of how best this can be done without running into conflict with the Washington court's ruling on the question of mo- nopoly. “Passing to the credit side of the year's work. we are all to be congratu- lated on the thorough and rapid man- ner in which baseball made the tran- sition from a wartime non-essential to an after-war public necessity and sta- bilizer.” Mr. Heydler then comtmented upon the establishment of Sunday ball in New York and Brooklyn, which he said had worked out for the good of the game, won public endorsement and set a liberal example for other sections of the country to follow. Several deals were spoken of, includ- ing the rumored purchase of Shortstop Roger Hornsby of St. Louis by the New York club. President Rickey spiked this rumor by saying “there is not enouzh money in the National league to buy Hornsby from St. Louis.” it was said that Manager John J. Me- Graw had offered a recerd nrice for this popular plaver, exceeding the $75,000 mark which was set by the purchase of Carl Mays by the New ‘| York Americans. President Ebbets of Brooklvn stated that he had purchased Harold Elliott, a former catcher for the Chicage Cubs, from the Oakland, Cal., club. The Brooklyn club also has signed Catcher Ernest Kruger again. President Chapin of the Rochester club bought Al Baird. an infielder, from the New York Nationals.

Joe* Wright, the famous C: rowing coach, signed a three tract Monday to coach the Universi: of Pennsylvania crews. Previous to this year Wright has worked at the Red and Blue institution on one year contracts, but his work has met with such universal favor among Penn men that it was thought better to tie him up on a three year contract than risit the possibility of losing him to a rival college. Wrisht went to Penn in 1916, and since that time has rapidly placed the Red and Blue in the front rank in intercollegiate rowing. Tn 1918 ana last spring Wright was runner un for the intercollegiate title, In 1916 at Poughkeepsie Wright thrilled the, row- ing world by changing. his crews for the varsity race, sending his junior eight to the post for the big race ana his varsity in the junior race.

In these major contests in the month of November Rodgers figured in gain- ing no less than 790 yards. Against Princeton he rushed the ball_eighty-four yards (three more yards by himself than all of Prince- ton could do); returned punts and kickoffs twenty-one yards and threw forward passes for net gains of 124 yards.
