A. A. u. WILL AGAIN
ELECT SULLIVAN
PRESIDENT OF BODY.
HARVARD ELEVEN HAS
BEST RECORD SO FAR
Yale and Penn, However, Are
Close Up to Crimson
Mark.

In comparing the records of the lead
to date Harvard, Pennsylvania and
Yale must be classed above all others
None of the three has been beaten sc
far this season, but ZACH has been Tied
once-Harvard by Annapolis Middies
6-6; Pennsylvania by the Carlisle In
dams, &c, and Yale by Brown, 1910.
Fewest points have been scored
against Harvard, s, against IA for Penn
sylvania and 16 for Yale, while Penn
sylvania leads in the number of points
scored against opponents, 1913, against
1853 for Yale and 12S for Harvard.
Pennsylvania has played two more
games than Harvard and three more
than Yale, the latter having played but
eight games. However, the Yale and
Harvard schedules seem to outclass
Pennsylvania's, the Cambridge team
having met williams, Annapolis. Car
Isle, Brown and Dartmouth, with the
final battle with Yale still to come.
Yale has played Syracuse, West Point,
Washington and Jefferson, Brown and
Princeton. and still has to meet Har-
ward. Pennsylvania's class games in
clude those with Pennsylvania State,
Brown, Carlisle, Lafayette and Michi-
gan, with the Cornell match yet to
come.

teams which played on Saturday will

When he is right he will never be
beaten a half straightaway in LOT.
There Is a question whether or not he
can beat Robert L., jr, but one thing
Is certain, and that is the bay gelding
will have to step faster than he did
Saturday to beat the yellow son of En-
sign when he is right.
Harry Hersey, acting on behalf of
M. w. Savage, owner of Dan Patch,
and of the international Stock Farm,
Savage, Mimi, has offered $40,0 00 for
the pacing stallion Minor Heir, 1:59Aa.
Hersey examined the stallion and
found him perfectly sound after mis-
sensational campaign. p. G. ~Isaaccs, of
~Stoystown, Pa, the owner of Minor
Heir, has a high opinion of his horse,
and has not yet signiied that he would
accept the offer.
Highland Laddie and Prince Alar
will be paraded before George Balm on
Friday night at the garden, and those
intending to bid on this pair should
bear this in mind. 1t is reported that
there are several local horsemen who
will try to buy h chestnut stallion.
Joseph E. Meyer has been conspicu-
Gus by his absence at the speedway
matinees for the past two weeks. and
there can be no doubt that he meant
what he said when he announced his
retirement from the game.
Jake Meyers bay colt Boswell acts as

The American League meeting will be
held in New York December 0. The
| National Commission will hold a ses-
sion about the same time. There prom
ises to be doings at both meetings.
Something lively for both board and
club presidents at the National League
meeting. The action of the board in
it's famous decision on the tie game be-
tween the Giants and Cubs at the Polo
Grounds, September %. will come up
for ratification. Charles Ebbetts, Gar
ny Hermann n George Dewey were
the only three that voted on the ques-
ton, as Charles Murphy and Barney
Dreyfuss were barred. 1t is unlikely
that Chubby Charles cares a whit now
that his club won the championship.
but Barney Dreyfuss is still mad as a
wet hen. Barney swears he will tell
the rest of the board just what he
thinks of 1t. He will introduce a meas
ure, he claims, to a such tie games
In future an utter im~possibility. Bar
ney Is annoyed because his Pirates dis
banded while yet there was a chance
of a triple tie with Chicago and New
York.
The National Commission is still busy
handing out penalties. Following the
suspension of a a dozen members of
the Chicago White Sox for playing
against the outlaw Logan Squares, the
commission has just imposed a $3.50 fine
upon the owner of the Chicago Cubs
for violating the rule with regard to the
farming Of players. It appears that
the Atlanta club recently purchased a
player named Campbell from the Chi
cago Cubs, but upon investigation 1t
was learned that the player did not be-
long to Chicago at all.
Besides the usual chatter of trades
and routine it Is unlikely that any
thing startling will develop. Most every
magnate has some pet scheme which
he thinks would be a benefit to the
game. Such schemes as cutting down
the number of balls from four to three,
altering the foul strike rule a trife and
kindred suggestions are sure to be
sprung. A movement to abolish the
spitball will undoubtedly be made. In
justice to teams such as the White Sox,
who depend on spitball pitching almost
entirely, such action, 1t is generally
felt, would be unfair. At least one
years warning will be given before
such a drastic rule is put Into effect,
1t Is believed In local circles.
Frank Farrell, president of the Amer
lean League club, is one of the mag
mates who will oppose the abolition of
the spitbaIl. when the matter came
before the league once BEFORE" said
Mr.. Farrell yesterday, "the opinion of
Napoleon Lajoie vas asked. .Lajoie
said in his opinion a pitcher WIS en-
titled to anything he could master, and
/ agree with him sincerely. I am not
In favor of taking a players bread and
butter from him. There are lots of
competent pitchers in baseball today
who could not hold down a minor
league berth u for the spitball."

A. j. TO CHOSE
JAMES {. SULLIVAN
PRESIDENT AGAIN
Delegates in Session Today al
New York Will Reflect
Him,

The great big men Of the Amateur
Athletic Union OF the United States
are in session today at the Hotel Aston.
The most important business will be The
election of officers for the ensuing yea
Although there have been rumors to
the effect that James e. Sullivan would
not again run for the office of presi-
dent, which he has held for two years,
the chances are that he will again be
elected to the position he so brilliantly
filed.
According to a rule that no president
can hold office longer than two years,
Mr.. Sullivan wants to retire and give
way to some one else. but the delegates
are willing to break that rule and have
Mr.. Sullivan in office again.
Mr.. Sullivan Is against the breaking
of the rule, as he himself had it
adopted. but the chief. as he Is known,
has done such good work and put
amateur sport on such a strong footing
that he seems to be the only candidate.
Mr.. Sullivan said today that he wants
to retire. He thinks by giving some
other men a show it would be for the
benefit of h sport. There are any
amount of good men, but it is hardly
possible that the sport could be much
more improved upon That is just the
way the delegates figure it out.
Besides the election Of officers there
are other matters that will be consid-
cred. The suspension of Carpenter,
the man who beat Halswelle, the pride
Of all England at the Olympic cham
pionship, and who was suspended by
the British Amateur Athletic Associa-
tion, will come up for discussion. The
s~uspending of his clever athlete,
which practically bars him from COM
peting In England again, is the last
straw, and 1t can safely be said that
the A. A. U. of the United States will
break all athletic relations with Great
Britain.

the spring train them and, If possible,
give them both a record next season.
The special match races over the
speedway are attracting considerable
attention among local horsemen, and
thus far have produced q lot of good
sport. Next Wednesday a race will
take place at Q o'clock between the
trotting gelding, Robert L. j., owned
by George Oil, jr.; Dewey Ensign,
owned by doc" Bodenweiser. and
Billy s., owned by William Stengel.
These three trotters' are pretty evenly
matched and should produce a fine
contest.

at "the Garden" next Tuesday evening,
directly after the supper intermission

Some baseball FAM are like a great
many baseball players. They never
have any pepper unless it rains all day.
Then they are particularly good men,
bers of the stovepipe league, gather
around the good old stove and wax en-
thusiastic. Many players will walk
about the diamond as though they had
lost all ambition on days when the sun
shines, but when it rains and there is
no chance of getting out of the club
house the players jump about In that
old rainy day pepper style that makes
the manager think that he has a phe-
nomenal aggregation. The stovepipe
league is composed of rainy day men,
but an effort Is to be made to GUST
them. The organization should not be
killed In its infancy.
The local baseball situation has rex-
cited the members of the league, but
all seem to be satisfied that the pros
poets are roseate after the detection
of George T. Stallings. Should Harry
Wolverton be selected as the grand
cadl of the Tigers, and there is every
prospect that he will be, he should be
decidedly popular with the fans and
deliver the goods in copious quantities.
All league members are enthusiastic
because Tommy" Martin is to be king
of the jungle, taking the place of Mr..
| Stallings as president. There is no
better versed man in matters that per-
tain to the national game than
Tommy Martin. He is popular with
the players n will accomplish re-
suits. All in all it can be said that
baseball prospects are brighter, al
though it Is a far cry from now until
The opening of next season.
After the cruel war is over the prin-
cipal baseball topic will be concern
ing the training arrangements made
by the different major league teams.
Both Chicago teams have selected their
training camps. Comiskey will again
journey to California with his White
Sox n the Cubs will try to get into
condition at Shreveport, La. 1t will be
no longer a case of "Chance before
Vicksburg." j.. Pluvlus turned the
hose on Vicksburg with such astound-
ing regularity last year that Chance
and Murphy concluded to move to es-
cape the flood. The Cubs training in
1909 will probably be shorter than usual.
Their "bush league" 90 pitchers will be
sent to Hot Springs early in March.
while other members of the team will
go at the same time to West Baden,
Ind, the team getting together at
Shreveport for the final workout on
March IS.
There is war between the Cardinals
and the Browns. Owner Hedges, of
the Americans, has obtained a lease of
the grounds at Houston, Tex, where
the st. Louis Cardinals trained last
spring, and where they expected to
indulge in preliminary stunts this year.
President Robson, of the Cardinals,
vows vengeance, threatening to do
away with the annual spring series of
the two clubs. which brings in a goodly
sum of money.
Kid Tlberfeld. 1t is said, is anxious to
leave New York and figure in O trade.
