LOWER SLAB;
MORE BATTING

New York. Jan. 6.-The agitation in
baseball circles against the raised
pitchers slab has become widespread
and critics here in general admit that
abolition would improve the batting.
Pitcher Christy Mathewsons opinion of
the proposed elimination OF the mound
is as follows:
While ii would be as fair for one
pitcher as another. there is no question
that the lowering of the slab would
take some of the kinks out of my drop
curve. If ! was compelled to start the
delivery two feet lower, naturally 1
would not set much break on the
ball.
4 don't think the proposed rule
would affect the spitball pitchers in the
least. 1t would help pitchers of I'M
derhand balls like WARRIOR and Nc
Ginnity- But in my opinion, there
would be more free hitting"

PREP LEAGUE
PLANS TO GUST
OUTSIDE SCHOOLS

Another bomb was exploded by the
board of control of the Cook County
High School Athletic leagu yesterday
when a motion was made to GUST Oak
Park. University high. La Grange. Har-
vey and Thornton from the league. The
proposition viii be brought up at the
next meeting of the board, and, if it
goes through. the circuit will be re-
organized and confined to Chicago
schools only.
The action is the result of protests
that have been made on all sides re-
garding the athletic methods of Oak
Park and University high. The recent
football trip of Oak Park was not APP
proved by the board, and this is
thought to be the main reason for the
threatened disruption.
