Schedule for 1911 Adopted
and Spalding Ball Chosen
For Period of 20 Years.

New York, Feb. 16.-Baseball mag
mates of the National league closed
their annual spring meeting yesterday
afternoon after one of the quickest and
most peaceful sessions ever held. The
schedule for the season OF 1911 was
adopted and made public, the Spalding
ball. which has been used for so many
years. was chosen again for a period OF
twenty years. and the club owners
closed the meeting by voting President
Tom Lynch a raise In salary from So
900 to $4,000 year.
The schedule was approved without
a murmur from any magnate and a
vote of thanks was extended to the
committee that served in the drafting
of 1t. The season is to open on April
IL and close Oct. IL, the opening
date being the same as that of the
American league. but the closing date
coming four days later.
Conflicts with the American league
have been wiped out in every city ex-
cept Chicago Here there will be no
more clashes than usual. nine in all.
Eight of them will. be Sunday dates and
one a Saturday. In ST Louis all con-
flicts have been eliminated for the first
time and each league has thirteen Sun
days to Itself. There are but two
scheduled dOu ble-headerS, DOtn IN ooS-
ton. None of the eastern clubs plays
two series in succession with the same
club. This will prevent weak club
from being pitted against a strong club
for a long stretch of games. Each club
plays on twenty-six Saturdays out OF
a possible twentysix. Each eastern
| club has two Saturdays and two Sun
| days in the west, new feature work
| ed out by Barney Dreyfuss- The open
| ings and holidays, az usual, are fxee
by rule of alienation with the Amerf-
can league, and these, 1t is believed
| have been distributed as evenly as pos
| sible.
The new schedule shows that the Chi
| cago Cubs open on their home ground:
| against the St Louis Cardinals. After
| a series of four games with this cluf
| the Pittsbnrg team comes for the same
number of games.

and even opinions National league
players claim they won. ) to 0. Ameri-
can league players claim the victory
by a 4 to / score. Numerous other
scores were given out by various on
lockers. Fromme of Cincinnati was
touched up for seven hits in four in
nings and Clark Of Providence, r. l..
gave four in five innings. The feature
of the game was the excellent twirling
CT Dixie Walker of Washington and
big "Rube" Chapel of. Mobile, who
allowed a single each. Neither team
made an error. Chapel also made
first home run. catching the bali on the
nose and sending 1t over the left field
fence. Grover Land of the Cleveland

minutes of play. At this stage the
score. was tied. Is to Is. Ray Lampke
gave the Purple rooters chance to
cheer when he shot a difficult basket
from a side angle, breaking the tie. The
*Gophers tried hard to overcome the
advantage, but their tactics were so
rough that Umpire Reynolds called two
fouls. This gave the purple two
chances to score from the foul line, Ed
Lampke making one of the throws and
missing the other and putting the north
shore men three points to the good.
The Gophers rallied but the referees
whistle ended hostilities just when a
score seemed certain.
