WYLY.

We are puzzled to decide who
has the best field of corn in this
locality. But it looks like it will
go to r. I'll. Herrin or M. A. Petty
John; then Albert Presson, W. Fl.
Hicks, Steve B. Herrin and S. F.
Baker will have to call in COM
mittee to act for them. However,
Jasper Rushing has q small patch
of the best corn ever seen here!
His son, John, procured the seed
in Iowa.
Rushings Greek was settled by
Abe and Willis Rushing in the
year 1918, and plans are under way
for their descendants and those of
other old settlers to have celebra-
ton in 1918, the close of the first
hundred years since the settlement.
One feature already planned is an
exhibit of furniture and other arti-
cles used by our forefathers, and
all elderly people and the younger
ones, too, are urged to gather up
all family relics of the long ago
that would be interesting to all
who may be permitted to survive
and take part in this celebration.
Other localities in the county
might take up this idea, and all be-
gin now to make preparation for a
general celebration in 1918. We
would like to hear from some of
the readers of The Chronicle on
this subject.

CONNIE MAck,s SECRET.
Utica Manager Tells Why Philadelphia
 Club Gets Rising Stars.

Charles Dooley, manager of the Utica club of the New York state league. thinks he knows why Connie Mack is so successful in landing young and brilliant ball players. The Phila- delphia manager" says Dooley, has more friends in the small leagues than any other leader and he also has a high batting average among the col legians. Connie is no rah-rah boy, but he treats the men picked up from the colleges finely. and, even if they fail to make good, all will depart from Camp MeGillicuddy vowing they never work ed for any better fellow and spreading this gospel among undergraduates who may have intentions of becoming pro- fessionals.
 Mack treats minor leaguers and men who have outIived their useful ness in the big show in the same white manner. When he comes to dealing with a fellow like myself, who is a manager of a club in class B league and who needs players every spring, Connie never tries any hOldup tactics. If he has a man for whom he has no immediate use and who cost him only $200, Mack does not try to put the bee on us and make the player bring in revenue to the club. Connie does lot Of farming, or, in other words, places a lot of players out on optional agree ments, but he never tries to make us pay S70O for man who cost him $500. Other major leaguers are different. Two years ago went to the president OI d AidJor league clup WHO ndu on his reserve list five first baSemen. T told him he wasn't going to keep ali these men and that I would like to have one of them. He told me I could have so- and-so and that the players tempo rary release could be bought for $700. This was $400 more than the man had cost him and he wanted me to make the Utica club expend that sum just for trying the player out. If he had made good the Utes would have been deprived. of his services and if he had f1zzled the major league club owner of whom speak would have been s40o in pocket. Connie, by treating minor league managers fairly, has assembled the greatest bunch of scouts in exist ence. We tip him off the abilities of youngsters long before gumshoe artists employed by other clubs ever have chances to see them play"

WHEN WAGNER BATS.
Hooters Threw Up the Sponge
 When Hans Appeared.

Hugh S. Fullerton. writing about Hans Wagner, the greatest baseball player in the world" for the January American Magazine, recounts the fol- lowing amusing incident:
 "The best testimonial I ever heard to Wagner as a batter was given one day last summer in Chicago by two negro boys in the bleachers. They had bet $2 that Chicago would beat Pittsburg and were accordingly excited. The game started with Jap Barbeau lead ing. Barbeau is about the size of were full of glee. 'Ho, ho.' yelled one, look at dat little man. He kain't hit nothin Brown gwine strike him out.

 They turned and sat with backs to the diamond, in awful suspense, and then one, speaking to a man above them in the seats, said in awed tones: Say, mister. tell us when he hit it."

MURRAY DECLINES FOGEL'S TERMS.
Former Manager of Philies in Clash Over Surrenderng His Contract-Fogel Offers $5,OOO-Nfurray will Ap- peal to National Commission-Other Sports

Philadelphia, Jan. 5.-WiIliam J. Murray, deposed manager of the Phil adelphia National league baseball club, and Horace Fogel. the new pres ident of that organization. failed to come to an agreement today at a meeting held to consider terms on which Murray would surrender his contract with the club. This contract. which was made by the former owners of the club calls for the payment of $7,500 a year salary, and has two more years to run. The new owners of the club are anxious to install another manager, and they offered Murray $5,- 900 to resign without litigation. This Murray refused to do and said he would place his case in the hands of the National commission. Another meeting will be held tomorrow, at which counsel representing the new owners, Murray and the former own CTS, will consider the legal aspects of the case. Besides the $150O0 claimed by Murray on his contract. the club owes him $1,500 on last years salary.
 About Keeping Waivers Secret.
 New York, Jan. 3-The National baseball league club owners are taking 8 mail vote on the question of whether a manager or president shall be re- quired to keep secret the requests for waivers on his players sent him by other clubs. There has been complaint from some clubs that the present prac- tice does them damage by giving away their plans in advance. A circular letter has also been sent out by Pres ident Lynch of the National league asking club owners to fix dates when their teams will have to carry only 25 players and when 35. When the Ma tional league clubs adopted 8 resolu- ton last month to have a limit of 35 men during the off season and of 25 later, no dates were specified.
 Neither Taft Nor Murphy.

Mur- phy also made the statement that he does not know who the packers of President Horace Fogel of Philadel- pl1ia are.

REVISED FOOTBALL
That Will Be the Game, Says Stagg-
 No Substitute for Gridiron Sport.

Coach A. A. Stagg of the university of Chicago who returned to Chica go Sunday from the meeting Of the In tercollegiate Athletic association in New York, declared football as played in American colleges is well on the way to thorough revision. but he was certain that the present game would be retained, with changes, and no other would be substituted
 T feel just as strongly as ever" said MT. Stagg. tfthat the modem sci- entific game of football should not and will not be given up. I also feel that the salvation of the game will be in making more open."
 Stagg further asserted that any im- pression that the national experts fla vor a reversion to Rugby or the adop- ton of the association game, is false.
