PITTSBURGH, April. 29.-Does IL
pay the major league baseball mag
mates to part with big sums of money
for crack young ball players. This
question has been asked many times
during a season by the followers of
our national game. Some experts say
yes, while others answer no. History
tells us that low price pill tossers
have in tho past turned out to be the
greatest bali players. For instance,
Ty Cobb, Fred Clarke, Ed Walsh and
host of other stars have cost their
clubs practically nothing. Last sea-
son Barney Dreyfuss OF the Pittsburh
club set a record price for a player
when he paid S22.500 to th,V5t Paul
club for Pitcher Marty O'Toole. He
was used in a few games last fall,
but did not do anything startling. This
spring Marty complained of sore
arm, and many experts say he will
not prove he is W rth the price paid
for him. On the other hand, the
Pittsburghers say he will be the SEN
eation of the year. A few years age
the New York club paid $1,000 ia

Nc PROFANITY ON
THE DIAMOND THIS YEAR

Charles F. Carpenter of Altoona
president of the Tri-State League. has
prepared forty-six rules for umpires
for governing the teams at play, tell
ing them how to legalize the contests.
He has also handed out some stuff to
the players and managers Much of
his announcement is covered in the
book Of rules of the T i-tSate League.
Carpenter tells The jumps what TO
wear. including a whlsk boon and a
watch, the latter properly regulated;
to put snap in the game; to refrain
from getting into a suuabble with the
spectators; 10 refrain from profanity;
to promptly report any attack on the
umpire. and to hold tempers in check
and not get into an argument with
hot-headed player.
President Carpenter defines a balk,
gives base rules and hands out ex-
plicit regulations about removal of
players from the game and the pay
ment of the $40 fine which always
goes with removal His rules for play
ers and managers follow:
"The league desires as creditable a
campaign as possible. and your assist
ance in conforming with these regula-
tions will be greatly appreciated, as
rigid enforcement of order on the
ball field is necessary.
The umpire is the sole Judge Of
play His decision cannot be ques-
toned and any one violating the rule
providing for this authority will be
dealt with accordingly
"1f any one is ordered from the
game he must leave the playing field
instantly and he cannot appear again
during the progress of the game fror
which he was expelled.
THE umpires are directed. in cases
where the offender in their estimation
deserves further discipline than mere
expulsion to notify President Carpen-
ter. This will meet with action as
may be deemed proper.
when a manager, captain or play
or is under suspension he will not be
permitted any of the privileges of the
playing field during the progress of a
game and he will not be allowed TO sit
on the bench. either in uniform or in
citizen dress. or occupy any position
on the ball field
Managers. captains and players
are especially warned against attack
ing the umpire in any manner after
the completion of the game or by any
overt or secret action try to influence
the spectators against him and cause
him bodily harm Any one resortine
to such cowardly tactics will be dealv
with to the limit

This season he started off we'll. In
1910 the Philadelphia club paid
$4,000 to the Baltimore club for
Lefty" Russell. Last season he was
on the bench most Of the time. This
spring he is In good condition and
may prove he Is worth the money
paid for him. In 1909 the Chicago
club paid $4,000 to Providence for
Russell Blackburne. He was a rank
failure from the start and last year
he was out Of the game nearly all
season. He is now i'm good shape, and
Manager Callahan says he will shine

answered by the work he performs
