NcV II ereemcnt.

Chicago, Feb 1.-THE American League
will adopt the playing schedule of 154 games
at its regular spring meeting. which be-
gins here tomorrow, regardless of the
action of the National League in New
York, according to statement made by
President b. 3. Johnson to-day.
I'VE will stick to the old length of the
schedule during 1910" said Mr.. Johnson,
I'VE vii! adopt 154 games whether the Ma
tfon1l League decides upon 15t or 16S games
The old schedule has worked we'll for sew
eral years, and 7 see no reason Why it
should not be retained. The season is long
enough. and we will have enough double
headers without adding any more games TO
the list
The American League meeting will begin
tomorrow, but the schedule will not be
adopted until Wednesday, According to an
agreement between the two major leagues.
the National League will announce its
schedule one day in advance. There will
he no discussion on the American League
dates. the schedule already drawn up
Will be adopted unanimously.
The principal business to come before
the meeting tomorrow will be the adop-
ton of the ten-year agreement. The
present agreement under which the Amer-
can League exists will expire in November
of this year. The American League was
in existence at the beginning OF 1900. but
the agreement was not adopted until later
in the year. Probably there Will be no
objection to the continuance of the circuit
for another decade, as all the clubs are
well satisfied with present conditions.
According to President Johnson, there is
no other business of Importance to be
brought 10 the attention of the club own
ers. although q few minor changes may
be discussed.
1t is expected there will he several trades
and deals. as the owners and managers of
clubs in three leagues will be here to-rnor-
row. Oh which day the American Associa-
ton will hold its schedule meeting, while
the Western League will adopt it's 1910 dates
on Wednesday.

The directors of the rowing club will hold
