CHAMPION BOTHNER HERE
BY OLD SPORT.

George Bothner, the only real light
weight professional champion in Amer
lea today, will be at Waldmann's to-
night, where he and Young Hack si,-
schmidt, who is known as the 'sBaya-
rian Tiger" will grapple for honcrs
with the genial John p. Dunn as gem
eral major domo. For years Bothnsr
has been wasting away for the want
of a fit rival on the mat. Where he
learned the tricks of the game. he and
his former business partner, Billy Ell

the superintendent of a place in New
York where fat men are made lean and
lean men made stout, alone can tell.

George Bothner is not as young nov

PRINCETON, April 1.7A driving
rain forced the Princeton team indoors
for its final practise before the Dick
inson game scheduled for today. But
Coach Meier did not allow the weather
to interfere with his plans. He evil
IDENTIFY took the Ursinus game Satur-
day, which came painfully near being
a reverse, seriously. for he drilled the
men in the getaway and in base run
ming until they were ready to drop.
The usual batting practise had to be
dispensed with. owing to the limited
dimensions of the baseball cage, but it
was not in the use of the stick that
the Tigers showed their weakness on
Saturday. The fact thai six errors
were charged against the Princeton
nine, and most of them coming at criti-
cal points of the game, speaks for it
self.
Coach Meier hopes that before the
Southern trip, which comes in two
weeks. the nine will have mastered the
fielding department and will have
settled down to the consistent work of
last year.
Wister is still deep in his books. pre-
pairing for the conditional exams
which will decide his baseball career
this spring for him. At present War
wick is holding down Wister's former
position in the field in good enough
style to warrant his keeping it even if
the faculty decides to lift the ban from
the football star. 4
First base. at last, seem to have
found a fixture in Eddie Fish. He more
than distinguished himself with the
stick in Saturdays game with four hits
out of as many chances to his credit.
Fish has beer tried in nearly every
position on the diamond for the sake of
his proficiency with the bat, but not
until he tackled first base did he sat
lsty a Meier as to his fielding
ability as we'll.

Rules and Regulations

Rules and Regulations.
Under rule 81, as revised since its
adoption. a club which asks for waivers
on a player during the year following
his purchase has the option of retain
ing him or of letting him go to the club
refusing to waive on him at the fixed
price of 81, 500.
The right to retain carries with 1t
the privilege of juggling with pur-
chased minor league players. that a
only he prevented by compelling a club
to sell such talent as it puts on the
market.
What n Waiver Means,
The request for waivers is in itself a
declaration that the player is, in the
judgment of his manager, either In
ability or experience not up to the
standard of the league to which he
has advanced, and IL another major
league club wants him he should be
awarded to it for 81, 500. regardless of
the amount paid for him by the sell
ing club.
The rich ma ior league clubs outbid
their less wealthy rivals in the annual
competition for minor league stars,
and, unless their discards are avail
able at a reasonable price, the second
division teams will be practically
powerless to secure promising recruits
for development.
Much Farming.
AS a result. this seasons farming"
output will be large, for the overstocked
clubs will avail themselves of the
chance to retain control of players who
are regarded as promising, but who
canno be sold to advantage. A year
hence the salutary provision that a
major league club that recalls an option
player must do so on August 20, and
take him into its service within three
days, will be effective, and few minor
clubs will care to accept 'farmhands,"
with the prospect of having their re-
spective teams broken up in the middle
OF August by the recall of one or more
men.
