NO MEETING OF
SCHEDULE COMMITTEES

CHICAGO, H., January 5-PresideAt
Johnson OF the American League last even
ing announced there would be no meeting
of the schedule committees in Cincinnati
next week.
ut was not the American League idea
lie exclaimed, lin asking for the appoint
ment of joint schedule committees that the
actual work of making out detailed sched-
uleS should devolVe on those committees
That plan was tried In the first year of
peace, and did not prove satisfactory to
either league. We desired to have the COM
mttees confer and agree on the main fea-
lures of the schedules. such the length
of the season and the opening and holiday
dates, and leave the details to be worked
out by Mr.. Puliam and myself, they
have been in recent years.
THAT plan has worked satisfactorily To
all parties so far as ! have heard. but has
been handicapped by certain arbitrary in
structions voted by the National League
each year. 1t was to avoid this friction
that joint conference was suggested this
year and at our league meeting no action
was taken regarding the length of the sea-
son or it's opening, intending to leave those
matters to the committees. The National
League having fixed by vote the length of
the season and its committee already hav-
ing drafted n schedule there does not seem
to be any reason for holding the conference
originally intended"

BOSTON THINKS
WELL OF UNGLAUB

BOSTON, January 5.-Presdent John I.
Taylor of the Boston American League club
is in San Francisco, where he went after
the Chicago meeting, but is expected to
leave there for the east within few days.
Hugh McBreen, treasu of the club was
seen last night in regard. to the report from
Williamsport, Pa, last night saying that
Robert Unglaub, who played last season
with the Williamsport team of the Tri-State
League, had been notified that he had been
traded to Washington for Jake Stahl Mr..
McBreen said:
Il do not know of any such an arrange
ment. and none has been made, unless
President Taylor has done so since he left
for the Pacific coast.
"Unglaub is still the property of the Bos-
ton club under base ball law, and is
valuable man. The Tri-State League is 60
ing to apply for protection under the ma
tional agreement, but the Williamsport
club wants to be allowed to retain Unglaub
and Wolverton.
ton club. and a very desirable player the
American League will, of course, protect
the rights of the Boston club and refuse
to allow the Tri-State League the protection
of the national agreement unless Unglaub
is returned
''Unglaub recently wrote President Tay-
lor, fnquiring as to his status. He said that
he had been sent a contract by the Gin
cinnati club which claimed to have got him
from Baltimore through the deal for Out
fielder Hayden.
IN this letter Unglaub spoke of the Tri-
State League applying for protection under
organized base ball. and said it would prob
ably have to come in under class B, or as
minor league He thought himself compe-
tent to play major league ball, and said he
was anxious to do SO. He intimated that
he could get chance to play first base for
the Washington team if matters were salts
factorily arranged.
HE is fine infielder, and President Tay-
Tor is not likely to let him go without come

of these is the mems event, and interest
promises to be keen among Chicago play
