Suspended gracefully rrom

Then came the crowning feat OF

LONGER TERM
FOR LYNCH, TOO
Nationals Would Have Their
President Hold Office
For Three Years
l54 GAMES ON
NEXT YEARS SCHEDULE

NEW YORK, Dec. 14-When the
magnates Of the National League re-
sumed their sessions at the Hotel
Breslin this afternoon, it was with the
definite assurance that President
Thomas J. Lynch would be reelected.
The only fight expected was on the
length of his term. Garry Herr
mann, of the Cincinnati Reds, who is
Lynchs chief backer. had already Sc
cured five votes toward Lynch's re-
election, all that were necessary.
Hermann wants Lynch to serve
three years instead of the customary
one. AS this would require six
votes Of the eight to be cast, Herr
mann was busy all morning trying
to round up the other vote. He re-
fused to say whether he had been
successful, but intimated that he
thought his plan would go through.
II was though the National League
would adopt a schedule this year sim
liar to that Of the American League

Hermann had a scheme which he
put up to the American and National
Leagues of having each league play
a schedule of 112 games, at the ex-
piration of which each club in the
American League was to play each
club In the National League a series
OF eight games, four in the home
town of each club. In this way, he
expected to arrive at the worlds
championship on bettor basis
Hermann announced that he would
urge the adoption of such a schedule
but there seemed no chance that II
would go through at this meeting.
Al the same time the National me

LANCASTER HOLDS
TO SALARY LIMIT

LANCASTER, Pa, Dec. l4.--ln
spite of the disposition Of some of the
magnates of Tristate teams to reduce
the leagues salary limit, Lancaster
will oppose anything of this kind. 1t
fought against tho last reduction, and
at the present time would heartily
welcome an increase to $25 to 500 per
month for individual players. The
club takes the view that II is unwise
to attempt to improve the finances of
the league by any reduction of sslar-
les, as it would inevitably cheaper
the sport and tend to detract from
its interest II is contended that with
towns of the Tristate Leagues aver
age population the salary limit should
be a little higher, instead of lower,
than the present figure.

Many a pleasurable contest at
ball has been married by rudeness.
This is frowned upon more and
more, until now clergyman of the
Friends church could witness a
game and not think he had CHANGED
to stray into the fishmarket called
Billingsgate.
Gentlemanly manners have done
much to popularize the game since
the period when an ill-bred person
was desired on the grassy arena.
Such a one finds his occupation
gone except in a street car strike.
The umpire is no longer addressed
in a pettish manner, nor are opos-
ing players tainted with loud and
fierce words when our side is de-
pgiy6 of the decision. All hands
cSl1&brt themselves like gentlefolk.
For example, a person makes a
verysadmirable toss of the ball from
left field into the grasp of the
catcher while another individual
essays to attain the home goal. The
catcher seems to touch the individ-
ual, tagging him out, but there is
such q grievous cloud of dust that
the action is obscured. The arbi-
traitor, who is in closer proximity to
the encounter than nearly anyone
else, states in a clarion tone of
voice, "Secure!"
There have been occasions when
this would have become the signal
for every player on the field
swarming to the spot, irritateed to
an extreme of rage, and rudeness
been rampant. If not blow with
the fist or club, the umpire would
be assailed with macerated
mouthful of tobacco in the eye and
be called Terrible Cheat" into
the bargain.
But now all keep their places
calmly, courteously. A shodaw of
disappointment may cross their no
BILE faces, but they refrain from
clustering. One of their fellows
may, if the grievance be very
weighty, approach the arbitrator In
