FARRELL ACTION
IS NOT POPULAR
Sporting Writers of New York
Support Stallings in the
Trouble.

NTw YORK, September 2T.--New
York sporting writer's do not take
kindly to the action OF Owner Frank
Farrell in Diminishing Manager George
Stallings and appointing Hal Chase
In his place. That the move will not
be a popular one lie echoed on all
sides to-day.
Sporting men declare that while
Stallings probably made his charges of
laying down, against Chase in good
faith. II was impossible to prove
them. They declare that Chase's fire.
ouent absences from the team. to-
gether with his Jump" when Elber-
field was acting as manager of the
Yankees, shows that there was some
thing in Stallings' charges
1t is further pointed out that
Stailings took charge of a team that
was hopeiessly in the ruck. and one
year produced a bunch of pennant
possibilities. The Yankees understood
Stalltngs guidance, always been in the
running and even now promise TO
finish in second place in the Ameri-
can League race. This wonderful i'm
provement, they point out. was
wrought by Stallings.

. as rapidly as baseball contest There
will be no delays. The action was
continuous
While some of the old timers may
criticise. undoubtedly the new rules
are going to please the great public
that pays the freight and makes the
game possible.
The impression gained is that a
premium will be put on individual
play Team work of the old kind
will not be possible. OF course. there
con be concerted play in the nature
OF interference. but the kind of push
ing and yanking that used to be
taught is now not only not desired,
but Will bring penalties.
1t was one of the expectations of the
rulemakers that the new rules would
put a premium on speed and give a
chance for lighter men TO make sood
in the game.
The little man. denied of the help
of his bigger fellows. will find it hard
to push his way through the OPP
position. His only chance will be by
lodging.
Penn's defeat Saturday, while ii re-
fleets infinite credit on Coach Price
and his men, is not occasion for gloom
at Franklin Field.
Everybody conyersant with football
at Franklin Field knows that Ahe
Penn coaches first teach defense and
let offensive work wait.
In the earlier games they rely upon
their men to hold down rivals. but
never strive for rolling up big scores.
Ordinarily the red and blue teams
are able TO carry out these plans. But

The report from Roanoke that the
club of that city is not worrying over
the Virginia League trouble and is
contemplating the organization of a
Hxinia- Carolina League is true only
in part. The Roanoke club Is worry

and they are more than a little wor-

Virginia Carolina League and they

order to have baseball.
President Williams, of the Roanoke
club, wishes 10 remain in the Virginia
League and he will show this when
the magnates meet here October 10.
However, they are making plans TO
protect themselves in the event they
are thrown out and they have a good
bunch that this is about what Is
going to happen to them.
The Virginia c ar olina League, /!
organized, will he strong and pro-
fitable com bination. Danvilie. Roa-
noke, Lynchburg. Winston-S salem
Greensboro and Charlotte will make
a nice league. The salary limit Will
be $1,000 as against Sl.Te0 in the
Virginia League. and the mileage will
not amount to very much
So In the event things do not go
right with Danviile and Roanoke al
the coming meeting. they will do a
little lobbying with the Lynchburs
club and endeavor to get the Shoe
makers to drop out also. thus making

not be hard TO do as both Hampton

MAKING PROGRESS
Coach Roper Believes Tigers viii
Be In Shape For First
Game.

PRINCETON. n. j., Sept. 27.--The
Princeton team Is at last acquiring
a semhlance Of team play and con-
certed attack and defense under the
new rules. and by the time the first
game Ii played Coach Roper Is con-
fdent that the Tigers will be able
to give good account of them
selves.
The early form shown by Captain
Hart and the backfeld combinations
is a source of satisfaction to the
coaches, but the same thing may not
be said of the line. Scrimmaging will
be the order of the practice for the
rest OF the week.
The freshman team, not as prom
isiuk as the last year cub bunch,
but will line up against the varsity

LAKEvILLE. CT. Sept 27.-Three
of Yale's best football players are
crippled and will be out of the open

happened under the old rules, but the
Yale coaches decline to condemn the
new code till it has had thorough
trial. The hospital list includes Baker

weeks with q broken finger: Howe.

Robinson. halfback. wrenched knee.
Baker has left the squad, but will
resume training after his finger has

here and Coach Ted Coy said tonight
that they would be needed badly In

Yale expects to catch a tartar IN

are made TO leave here after morn

to order practice game tomorrow

and they hardly dare hold tine first

COLUMBIA WILL LIFT
THE BAN ON FOOTBALL

NEW YORK. Sept. 27.--The ban on
intercollegiate football at Columbia
University will undoubtedly lift this
season, but hardly in time for the
scheduling of any games. A commit
tee OF students, acting under instruc-
tions from President Butler. Is now
canvassing the student body on the
question of resuming football. and the
sentiment is said to be overwhelm-
ingly In favor of it.
Reports from the various coaches to
the effect that the new rules have
eliminated many of the dangers OF
the game are reported for the chang
ed attitude of the faculty.

lars in place. Penn's defense was in
adequate against the fleet and we'll
drilled Collegeville boys, and only the
possession of rapid scoring machine
would have put Penn In the running.
This the Quakers did not have. for
the simple reason that the coaches
have not yet come to that part of the
work,
But later in the season the tacti-
clans OF Franklin Field will be in a
position to take advantage of the pos
sibilities of the new rules for varied
attack. and then some brilliant work
may be expected.
Meantime 1t looks as though the
public has cause to be grateful for
the work that has been done on the
rules.

Several magnates do not look with
favor upon the attitude of the Nor
folk club. II is pointed out that the
Tars have no cause for growing out
side their own camp. Bad manage
ment, incompetent players, heavy
salaries and other conditions are
pointed TO as the real trouble. The
Norfolk club has lost money and ex-
penses have been high but this could
easily have been remedied.
1t LIS believed that a number OF the
players were paid the limit in salary
and they received nice fat bonus on
the side. That's where the coin went
and that helped swell the expenses
that frightened the Norfolk magnates
And they blame the league and the
other clubs for this. They also blame
the schedule and say II would not
have happened had they been given
more Saturday games at home.

Manager Clarke pulled off neat
one on the magnates at Norfolk also.
Ii liz understood that the old skipper
handed in a contract tying him up
as a player manager. and he was sup
posed to MI one of the regular posi-
tons on the team, Did he do it,
Yes, he did not. He went in to bat
for some other player about two
times, and he did go in the games
against the Hampton Peninsula
League team In an exhibition barn
storming series. He got sT2 extra
coin for his week on the lower PENN
suia-
No, the willy skipper was bench
manager throughout the season, and
this necessitated the paying OF an
other salary for some player TO nh
the position he was supposed TO fill.
Nobody biames Clarke: that is, no.
body but the Norfolk mRgnates, III
they have yet been able to perceive
where their coin went. II was right
for the manager to keep out of the
game and take things easy If he could
do II. and he could all right.
But IT'S all the leagues fault. II
must be. The Norfolk club says SO,
and they ought 10 know. Are they
not one of the oldest clubs in base
ball in Virginia and familiar with
all conditions? Well. then; who's
