AT ODDS ON POWERS
OF COMMISSION.

Baseball law has it's vagaries. Harry
Pulliam is of the opinion that it is
within the jurisdiction of the National
Commission to adjust the indefinite re-
serve lists of clubs, 30 far as numbers
of players are concerned. On the other
hand, Ban johnson holds that the COM
mission has nothing to do with the con-
troversy, claiming that il Is up to the
respective leagues, large and small, to
do what they please. 1t goes without
saying hat Pulliam is the better law
yer, and he should know. But Ban has
all sorts of diamond gray matter and is
seldom wrong. When he is he gener-
affected as to make him right.
I'VE did not consider the reserve list
limitation, because the commission was
too busy with other matters" declared
Mr.. Pulliam. "Of. course, the question
is a vital one, but it a be attended
to later. 1t is too important to rush.
We are waiting for the American
Leagues views on the subject. The
matter a be attended to by mail"
1.-THE question is entirely out of the
jurisdiction of the National Commits
sion,'' volunteered MI. Johnson, 1T is
up to the leagues. Personally, / think
the question is a dead letter now. Rule
36 has been amended to cover the fault.
This, of course. will go into effect after
this year, and will prevent clubs gath
ering in players on speculation to be
turned loose on the minors the sue
ceeding year without loss of invest
ment. Clubs are seeing the folly of
warming the bench with a lot of tim
Der. 1t is to their own interests to
remedy the fault without special Iegis-
~lation.'

ATHLETIC DIVIDEND
TIED UP in BANK.

NEW YORK, Feb. 29.-The annual
committees of the intercollegiate AS
ISOLATION of Amateur Athletes of
America was held last night at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, preliminary to the
meeting of the association which will
be held today Although G. T. Kirby,
the chairman of the advisory commit
tee, reported tina. the receipts of last
year $4,24S.49. were the largest in the
history Of the organization, it was de-
cided that owing to the fact that the
organization has $4,000 tied up in the
Knlckerbocker Trust Company no divi-
dends would be paid TO the colleges
this year.
These dividends amounted last year
to between 81, 900 and $4,000, and were
distributed to the various members ac-
cording to the mileage covered in get
ting to the meet and to the number of
athletes competing.
The committee decided to recommend
that the annual field meet of the as
s~ociation on May 80 and 80 be held
at Soldiers Field, Cambridge. This
was strenuously objected to by the rep
re sentatives of Pennsylvania, who
wanted the contests at Franklin Field.
1t was decided to recommend that
81, 900 be appropriated for the Olympic
games fund. and that $3.50 be used to
buy a cup 10 go to the winner of the
intercollegiate ~cross-country champion
ship. 1t is expected that at the meet
ing today the association will vote to
take control of this branch of sport,
which previously has been under the
direction of a separate organization.

AYO. Old Fan: Pitcher Walsh, who
N has been purchased by Montreal
from Chicago is not the Walsh
who was the sensation of the major
leagues in 1906 and was instrumental
in winning not only the pennant, but
the worlds championship for his team,
They are brothers, but of a far diff
ferent calibre and disposition. The
pitcher purchased by Montreal is Mar
tin Walsh, a big, freckle-faced, over
grown boy. He halls from the Chicago
Nationals, though it is doubtful if he
has eve set foot in the Windy City.
The other player is Ed Walsh, of the
Chicago Americans, the famous spit
ball artist, who twice defeated the
Cubs in the worlds championship
series in the fall of 1906 ana surpassed
even the record of Christy Matthewson.
Both the Walsh brothers formerly
played on the Newark Eastern League
team. Ed came here with Catcher Ira
Thomas from the Connecticut League
late in the season of 1903. Both gradu-
ated to the major ranks. Walsh was
purchased the same year by the Chi
cago Americans. Thomas was plucked
by the New York Americans. after he
a put in another season with Provi-
dence.
The n Walsh became famous, but
it looks as though Frank Chance
handed little Jimmy Casey a ''gold
brick when he took Montrears good
money for Martin Walsh. The reputa-
ton of a big brother seems to count
something in baseball. Hank Mathew
son., whom few class A minor league
clubs would have on the payroll, stuci

was clearly shown during the contest,
and they earned their victory.

PITCHER WALSH PURCHASED BY MONTREAL,
NOT FAMOUS Ed, But PLAYED HERE SHORT TIME

Lakewood. Martin took his TURF in the
pitching practise. The other players
thought 1t necessary to TAX out acct
dent policies the moment the big fell
low went in the box, for Martin, though
he had binding speed, never knew
how many yards from the plate his ball
would whizz.
But there's one thing that Brother
Martin could do. He could sing; that
is, in a way. After the toll of the day
was over the green pitcher. q second
edition of RUDE Waddell, would stalk
into the sitting room of the hotel, open
his mouth so you could scarcely see
his face and reel off songs in a way
that would drown the noise of a steam
caliope. He never weakened in that
respect, though some nights he would
go a dozen innings.
Walsh No. 2 lasted two weeks with
Newark. Before the opening of the
Eastern League season when the
ghost begins to walk, the gent from
Wilkesbarre was lost in the bushes OF
the Connecticut League.
On a trip Down East the Newark
team struck Hartford. Walter Burn
ham persuaded the Hartford manager
to accept his big pitcher as a gift.
That night Frank Gatins, who was
then captain of the team, in a jest
tipped Martin off that he had beer
sold to Hartford for $1,000. adding thai
it was customary for ball players tc
receive half the purchase one in
deal of that sort.
The big fellow was off like a flash
hunting up Burnham. OF course. the
manager had no particular excuse tc
give the pitcher a cool $500, having re
ceived nothing for him himself. but
he had a hard time explaining things
TO the player.
And this is the Walsh sold by Chi
cago to Montreal

In England the parent organization is the Football Association. There the

which major league clubs look after baseball in this country.

It's much the same abroad In order to properly manage and controlt the
