Thinks Worlds Series !,
May Be Played in Cuba

CINCINNATI, Dec. 16--Business Man
mayer Frank c. Bancroft, of the Gin
cinnati Reds. who is spending his time
in Havana with the Giants, is quoted
in the Havana Post as saying that 1t
will not be long until the worlds series
is played in that city. Says Banny:
1T is only matter OF time until the
worlds championship baseball games
will be played in Hanava. No person
on earth can appreciate the growth Of
baseball in Cuba more than can. The
advancement of the game since came
here in 1879 with the Hop Bitters' is
simply astonishing. While I may not
live to see 1t, i predict that it will not
be many years before the worlds cham
pionship will be played between the
champions of America. Cuba. Japan, and
other foreign countries. where baseball
Is getting firm hold.
While out riding last Sunday morn
ing I noticed every vacant lot around
Havana fairly alive with boys playing
baseball. and l thought that no doubt
among those youngsters are many who
will be stars when they grow to man
hood.
THE Cubans are certainly quick to
pick up the fire points of the game, ana
when l near American players going
Odck nome after Delng beaten down
here anil giving all kinds Of excuses,
laying the blame on the climate; ets.,
il makes me laugh. While the Amer
lean players may not be used to the
climate. and H. is to certain extent j.
handicap, the cold fact remains that
the Cubans are good ball players and
win on their merits.
Look at Almeida as an exemple IT
what Cuban can do. He went to Gin
cinnad last season and outhatted every
PLAYER his tAam. Ma raana fhe otha.
Cuban on the Cincinnati team, forged
rapidly to tho front as q brilliant
fielder. base runner and quick thinker.
And both were playing on American
grounds. They made the value of Gu
ban players recognized.
american scouts In looking for talent
Will keep in touch with the coming
young Cuban players. and predict that
many more will be grabbed up by the
league teams in future years.
Cuba is very fortunate in having
such man as Senior Jimenez to handle
base oall affairs. and the support that is
given him by the sporting writer's can
not be beaten in any city in America.
While the sport Is kept as clean as it.
now is by the support of the press, the
public, and the players, baseball here
Is certain to grow until 1t is equa, to
the game la anv country.
Il want to praise the Havana Post
for the careful and thoroughly impair
tlal way In which IL has reported all
the gs mes that have been played here
In the series between the New York
Giants and the local teams. Nc papAc
could have been fairer"

WARD WILL INSIST
ON CHANGING THE
FOUL STRIKE RULE
Expresses Himself as Soon
as He Learned of

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.--If John NJ.
Ward, chairman Of the National League
rules committee, has his way the foul
strike rule will be modified. at least
In his own organization. Ward, who
Is also president Of the Boston Ma
tional League club, az soon as he
learned that he had been appointed the
head Of the rules committee to serve
with Roger Bresnahan and Robert Ems
lie. declared that at least one reform
should serve to increase the batting.
The present foul strike is too great
handicap for the batsman to over
come and gives the pitcher an immense
advantage. I have studied the working
of the rule with much care, and I be-
lieve that It should be modified. While
haven't had time, Of course, to think
OF alterations, II seems to me that IL
the first foul ball was called strike
instead Of the first two, the batsman
would enjoy more leeway. It doesn't
batsman drives the ball over the fence
or into the stand few feet outside the
foul line.
Perhaps It might be better to call
certain radius Of the home plate. Any
plan that will increase batting, think,
will be well received by the baseball
public. Il is possible that I shall ad-
box. The raised box, in some cases
two feet higher than the base paths.
also gives the pitcher an unsportsman-
IKE advantage. He should be made to
deliver the ball on a plane with the
plate instead of pitching down hill. 90
to speak"
Messrs. Ward. and Ganney talked
over. the affairs Of the Boston club at
length yesterday. They will visit the
Hub next Tuesday to take over the
stock and elect officers. Ward will be
president, Gaffney vice president and
board of directors with Todd Russell.

Aviators Will Test
i New Muffled Motor

Along with the many important ex-
periments that are to be conducted by
the army aviators at Augusta, Ga, this
winter. will probably come the trial Of
a new mufffed motor.
This is considered extremely import
ant, because of the fact that wireless
telegraphy is to be attempted from a
fast moving aeroplane, and with the
noise made by the motors now in use,
1t will be impossible for an aviator to
receive a message from the ground or
from another aeroplane in the air.
A wireless machine now is at Augusta,
and will be installed on the Curtiss BIZ
plane operated by Capt, Paul w. Beck.
Captain Beck still Is in Washington, but
goes to Augusta in about week.

Reds to make a visit, and 1t is to be
hoped that the barriers will be low

The Phillies and the Giants have not
conducted themselves in a manner con-
ducive to the pleasure of their hosts.
and, in fact. have done many things to
make themselves unpopular.
The Reds = so the Habanaros think,
will appreciate hospitality far better,
and are urgently invited to come along.
