FLAG FIGHT IS AT AN END;
RED SOX CROSS THE GOAL

Chicago, Sept. 19.-Boston's red sox
have run their race-and won. The
one thing that for two months or
more has fitted across the American
league horizon as a possibility be-
came a reality yesterday when the
Chicago white soX handed the new
champs their crown by whipping the
Athletics in one end OF a double
header. Boston needed an additional
game to c.inch the honor, and this
was wiped out last night when Presi-
dent McAleer announced that a post
ponement at New York would not be
settled. A loss of fifteen straight for
the red sox now will lot figure in the
flag marathon.
Thus ends, as far as the actual
winning of flag is concerned, a race
of note, one that was featured by the
unexpected from every quarter, after
an early spring outlook promised moth
/ ing beyond a repetition Of a previous
! seasons happenings. The biggest o
! these unlocked for events was thu
! triumphant march made by StahTi
new champs, and now that cold fig
ures show red streak safely over tbs
! goal, it remains for the seven hopes
of last March to tussle to the end L
hold the respective berths that in sew
eral cases are none too certain. Mean
while the champs can shuttle alonl
care free and perhaps set league rec
ord ia the way the games go.

POSIES FOR MIKE
FROM T.MURkANE
President of National Associa
ton of Minor Leagues
Praised for Plan.
TO KEEP SALARY STRAIGHT
Eastern Writer and Baseball Authority
Approves Scheme for Travel
Ing Auditors.

Approval Of NJ. H. Sections PLAZA to
bring about a method whereby club
owners in the minor leagues will be
obliged 10 stay within the salary limit
comes in the shape of Tim Murnane's
weekly letter to the Sporting News.
Murnane is a well known eastern
sporting writer, knows the game from
beginning to end, and ii addition, is
next to the inner workings Of various
clubs. Recently, Mr.. Sexton, the pres
ident Of the National association of
Minor leagues, sent forth a scheme in
which he preached the advisability of
appointing auditors TO travel over the
country and go over the books of the
clubs under the control of the ma
tional association. 1t is concerning
this plan that Murnane has the fol-
lowing TO say:
POSIES FOR MIKE.
President Mike Sections plan to
have auditors appointed to travel and
/ look over the books of the minor
league clubs. 10 see that salary limits
are lived up to, is an excellent idea.
Men will be on the level in a game
of poker, and in their business deals,
but let them get connected with a
ball club and nine times out OF ten
they will break their promises to keep
to tn elimits. The result is that about
onehalf the minor league clubs lose
money each year.
Mr.. Sexton will do a great work
II he can bring about normal condi
tons among the minors, and no man
Is better fitted for the work than he
with his years Of study Of conditions
in the National association.
From what l hear, the minor
league gathering at Milwaukee in No
vember will be the largest known tc
the great organization. At st. Louis
l met Morris Block of San Antonio
Morris had completely recovered from
his base running act during the game
!, for sweet charity at San Antonio anC

Il would not be amiss If former ath
letes Of Rock Island high school
would profit by a scheme which was
put into vogue at Moline high school
q few days ago when there was a
home coming" at the Pow City IN
stitution at which former stars of the
gridiron, together with former pupils
OF the school who still have spirit and
enthusiasm for the school, gathered.
At the present time there are at least
half q dozen former Islander stars OF
the football field IN the city and
they would undoubtedly welcome an
opportunity 70 get in closer touch with
those who are candidates for foot
ball hUnors today.
In the sister city enthusiasm was
pushed TO a high speed notch just
through the get-together meet Stories
OF the old days, full of spirit were
told, yells were given and in all, the
meeting was one of the most success
full of any ever held in the Plow City
10 advance enthusiasm along high
school lines.
RESUMPTION OF RELATIONS.
/ Possibly II the local men would
/ take up the same proposition it would
bring about a new and clean spirit
which Ultimately might bring about a
resumption OF athletic relations with
Moline and even Davenport There
is no use making any bones about
It. The majority of Rock Island PEG
pie who ever did have any real inter
est in the school are anxious to gel
back into harmonious relations with
the sister cities.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Sept. 19.-Back
in Ann Arbor again and hard at work
with his squad, eight Of whose mem
''Hurry-Up" Yost speaks with optim-
ism about Michigan's chances for the
1912 season, and with enthusiasm
about the new football rules.
After careful consideration Of the
new code, do not see that rule was
added or changed by the football
rules committee that will not be for
the betterment of the game" said
Yost, on being asked his opinion of
the new code.
/ The rules have been materially
/ simplified so far as they affect the
actual play upon the field" he con-
tinued. For, while but few changes
have been made that vitality affect
/ the game, there has been a decided
! lessening Of the complexity of the old
system. The committee. in my opin-
ion, has at last reached the sought.
after combination-that Of saving the
player and the play.
Under the system OF 1911 the
break of the game, which embraces
fiukes and chance plays, was rs per
cent of the scoring result. Under the
present code these elements OF chance
will not go beyond 20 per cent and
in the proportion that luck has been
eliminated, science, speed, versatility
and power have been given their
chance to shape results.
The change as l view them, will
not work against the smaller and
lighter teams of ability. The granting
OF four downs and the right TO make
a forward pass for any distance and
for 10 yards in goal, have given the
lighter team a better chance to viii
on its merits than this team eve
held under the previous rules. Unde
the old regulations it was almost
consistently by rushing the ball ant
SO they were forced almost entirel,
to open field work Heavier an
stronger teams, finding a close dc
, Tense unnecessary, were able to shift
back and, thus, easily block this opel
field play. AS the rules now stanC
the heavier team will be forced t
concentrate its defense more than bt
fore and, with most restrictions LITE
from the forward pass, an aler
. shifty IL should be able to do'a doubl
amount of execution.
There is no reason to fear an
: return to the old pushing, smashin
game as long as the rules reQuir
seven men on the line of scrimmag
when the ball ia put in play and ths
a ruhner cannot in any way be a
sisted by his teammates. l believ
, the public will be more pleased wit
the game of football this season tina
. at any time IN the past, and thu
the game will be as free from acc
. dents as ii is possible to make 1
There will be more scoring, moi
varied attack and more scientif
| work"
