The local magnate declares Isbell's part in the affair was for the ex- press purpose of bringing about the downfall of Frank Zehrung of Lin- coln, president of the league, Hanlon declares that Isbell and the other two club owners managed to get Zehrung into a room in a New Orleans hotel last month and demanded his resigna- tion: Hanlon says Zehrung was told by Isbell that the league’s club own- ers were dissatisfied with him and wauted him to resign. This Zehrung refused to do. Hanlon also accuses Isbell of giv- ing publicity to the effect that- the league was going on the rocks; was a financial failure and that there was no money in the treasury since Tip O'Niell was deposed as president. “The reason there is no money in the treasury,” says Hanlon, “is be- cause Frank Isbell failed to pay his dues, and up until a few weeks ago owed the league $800. Isbell has tried to undermine President Zehsung ever since he has been in office. In this he has been assisted by certain other members of the league. I know Continues to Grow New York, De ~In his annual report to the directors of the Base Ball Players’ fraternity, President David L. Fultz states that the organi- | zation, which has completed its fourth | year, continues to grow in strength |and is demonstrating its ability to ac-| | complish benefits for its members. | Although two of the major league clubs—Philadelphia and Cleveland Americans—are not in the fraternity and the Chicago American club play- ers have shown a lack of interest, the organization has a large representa- tion and is stronger than ever in all the other major l)ague clubs, Fultz dsserts. In _the minor leagues, according to President Fultz, the fraternity has made more rapid strides. Three class AA clubs—Baltimore, -Indianapolis and San Francisco—are not in the organizations, but membership of the others is increasing rapidly. Every club in the Southern association is represented with entire strength, ex cept the Mobile club, while there is room for improvement in the mem- bership from the Western league. The return of a number of Federal league players increased the active membership considerably during the last season and the total enrollment consists of 1,215 members. - President Fultz, states that, ac- cording to reports made to him, play- ers have been forbidden to join the fraternity from the Philadelphia Americans, Indianapolis and Denver clubs, and adds if this is true all three clubs have violated the fraternity agreement which says that there shall be no discrimination against fraternity members, Notre Dame Stars FAST FLOOR FIVE | Mulligan Lines Up Stiff Sched- | ule, Including Sioux City, | Lincoln and St. Joe. THREE VETERANS RETURN With the foot ball season over, ! Coach Mulligan of Central High is| busy lining up a strong basket ball schedule for this season. The follow- | ers of the local team will be treated to a high grade of basket ball and a | lot of it this year. Lincoln, Beatrice, Sioux City, St. Joseph, Fort Dodge, and University Place will be some of | the big games on the schedule. The athletic board of the Sioux City | High school voted a short time ago | to abolish basket ball but the student | body will probably influence them to change their mind. Sioux City has always put out a successful team and has plenty of good material this year. Two games will probably be played with Lincoln; Beatrice and Sioux City. Athlétic Manager C. A. Cairns talked with Coach Reese of Lincoln when the latter was in Omaha last Friday concerning the exact dates for the two games with Lincoln. Omaha High wants the games on February 3 and 24, the first game to be played here. Beatrice High will be played on January 20, one of the early dates on the schedule.

Y., too far east for Omaha entries. The local cracks did not fare so well this year at St. Louis as they have in former tournaments. None of the teams rolled good totals and only two two-man teams and four indi viduals will draw down any cash prizes. The reasons for this poor showing are well known and the St. Louis failure will prove an awakening for the high-class pinmen who have formerly capably held up Omaha’s reputation as a strong bowling center.

STATEMENT BY HERRMANN Chicago, Dec. 3.—Base ball players in the American and National leagues if injured on the field will get their salaries in full until the expiration of their contract, according to a new form of contract adopted tonight at a special meeting of the National Base ball commission. Under the old contract club owners were obliged to pay injured players for only fifteen days, and at the end of that time could dismiss them. “However, that was not usually the case despite the charges of David Fultz, president of the Base Ball Players’ fraternity,” said August Herrmann, president of the Cincin- nati Nationals and chairman.of the | commission. “Mr, Fultz has charged that the contracts were unfair to players who had been injured, as he alleges, in cer- tain cases, they were not compensat- ed. The charge is groundless, The commission, I think, has gone further than -Mr. Fultz had lmpcg. The new contract means that a player, if in- jured, will be paid in full and the con- tract cannot under the circumstances be terminated until it expires.” The clause under which a_player can be dismissed after receiving ten days' notice and the optional clause were retained in the new contract, ' which Mr. Herrmann said contained only minor other changes. The op- tional clause provides that a player can be held under reserve if sent to Make Visit to the that a certain letter was put into the played at St. Joseph on March 3, and | being the consequence.

Neither was Northwestern, runner up to Ohio State, awarded games with Wisconsin or Minnesota. Prac- tically the only upset in the 1917 pro- gram was the dropping of Indiana by Chicago. Coach A. A. Stagg of Chi- cago declined to grant Ohio State a game and Coich Harry L. \Villiamsi of Minnesota said it was impossible | for Minnesota to play at Calumbus. | The 1917 schedule as drawn will be | practically the same as last year, Ellison Winner 0f Turkey Shoot At Omaha Gun Club Frank Ellison captured the turkey event at the Omaha Gun club yestere day. Over a dozen geese and ducks were awarded as prizes in other events, | but Ellison took it easy in thesci shoots, letting his opponents win. But when the single turkey event of the | program came off Ellison got down | to business and won the bird. Doc ye won two geese and a| duck, Chris Christensen, one goose | and one duck; J. T.

On October 14 the strong aggregation from Wesleyan went down to defeat, 14 to 0. The fast Dubuque college players held the varsity to a 6 to 6 score October 21, and the next week the representatives from Denver university succeeded in carrying off the honors by a score of 19 to 13, but on November 4 Creigh- ton jorneyed to St. Louis and came away victors by a score of 20 to 0. On November 11 the representatives of Friends university, Wichita, were defeated by a score of 34 to 0. High- land Park of Des Moines held the local men to a 0 to 0 score on Novem- ber 18. And the final glory was the defeat of South Dakota November 30, by the score of 20 to 13. Caledonians Win Over Nonpareils In Soccer Battle \ Over 1,000 persons saw the Cale- donians defeat the Nonpareils, 5 to 1; at soccer yesterday afternoon at Mill- er park. The Caledonians won their advantage in the first half, scoring four goals and one penalty kick. In the second half the Nonpareils more than held their own, scoring one goals while the Caledonians failed to mark up a count.
