the Kharkof already described. The

quite equal to the Kharkof. 1t has

MURPHY TO FIGHT
RULE REVISION
Cub Magnate Says II Is the Work of
Ban Johnson and Is Therefore
Obnoxious To Him

CHICAGO. Jan Eft President
Murphy of the Chicago Cubs adheres
to his determination 60 vote against
any changes in the present playing
rules il Is likely that the National and
American Leagues will play next sea
son under differing regulations. The
changes have been advocated by Pres
ident Johnson of the American League
and this fact alone is enough TO make
Murphy oppose them
To me the proposed changes look
favorable 20 the American League,
said Murphy today. They are the
work OF Johnson and when the ques-
ton comes up for vote at the Ma
Uonal League meeting next month
will vote against them That means
that we will not reach an agreement.
The American League Is already
practically ON record in favor OF the
changes and is expected 10 adopt
them.
Murphy declined 10 discuss the re-
port that Catcher John King had ar
ranged 10 return 10 me Cubs. Muir
ply does not deny however, that such
a deal is pending. II IL clear from his
attitude that he fears 10 say too much
right now. believing he might spoil
any chance King may have TO be re
instated in organized baseball.
