HAVE $4,000 LIMIT

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-Club owners oil
the American Association met hers
yesterday to discuss the salary limit
of the association for next year. After
a fve-hour session behind closed
doors it was announced that a limit

forced, but the mount was not made
known. st. Paul was the only club
in the association not represented
Mrs. Agnes Havenor, wner of the
Milwaukee team, was present and
took active part in the discussion.
Despite the statement that the limit
for 1918 would not be made public.
SIS, 900 was the sun it was understood
that the owners would be satisfied
with as a monthly limit. This is 81 800
more than the figure named several
years ago, but which was suffered to
become a dead letter because of its
numerous violations, some of thu
n going as high as $4,000.
1t was understood that the Milwau-
kee, st. Paul, Minneapolis and Louis
Vile owners were in favor of a lower.
limit because of a poor season this
year. It was pointed out at the meet

CHANCE MAY LAND
WITH WHITE SOX

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-Frank Chance
has been tipped off that a job as
manager awaits him in the American
League. The club is the Chicago
White Sox if Chance can get his re-
lease from President Murphy and the
Chicago club team. 1t is reported
that an offer of 5000 300 salary was Of
fered him as a playing manager.
Comiskey thinks Chance has sew
eral years left as a good first base
man, and admits there is not a better
first baseman or leader of a team
than Chance in good health.
President Comiskey has made no
efforts to secure Chance, as it is
against the law of the sport to tam
per with another clubs player while
he is still under reserve. II was
learned yesterday that friends of the
South Side owner have seen the eX-
Cub leader and asked his attitude on
the subject. He refuses to discuss it
until he hears definitely what Pres
ident Murphy intends doing with
him.

share of the spoils has steadily in
creased each year, until $50, 900 was
set aside after the recent struggle be-
tween the Giants and Red Sox.
Several club owners insist that the
commissions portion should not ex-
coed $25, 900, in which event the bal
ance could be split up among the men
who pay the salaries of all major
league players.
The worlds series has grown to
such enormous proportions hat the
impression prevails among baseball
men that the players are getting too
much money.

the teams taking part in the worlds
series is adopted it will be interest

bookmaking, and he further ruled
that directors of C courses could
not be held criminally liable for the
acts of patrons on their property
when they were ignorant of those
acts.
1t was expected that Assistant Div
trict Attorney Mccarthy, who handles
the case for the State, would take an
appeal, and the action is in no sense
a surprise.
Under the Scudder ruling private
betting was declared legal and the
paragraph that relieved the directors
of liability n that made the
resumption of racing possible. 1t was
this clause more than any other in
the last that resulted in the stamping
out of the sport in New York.
If the ruling is sustained by the APP

this direction arc the usual expecta-
ton of the coaches in the last fort

Harvard's showing against Brown

Princeton, with a defense showing
some weak spots. has developed an
attack with speed and drive enough
TO cause much worry at Yale and
Harvard. The Tiger coaches have
been hammering steadily from the
start at positive offensive tactics.
Dartmouth riddled the Princeton line
time and again and showed the
coaches that a difficult task is III

retain the gridiron supremacy which
it won last year.

GARRY HERMANN WOULD
CUT PLAYERS SHARE OF

Movement on Foot to Bring About Neces-

NEW YORK. Oct. 2S.-A plan to cut
the players share of the receipts of
the world series baseball games will
be given serious consideration by the
National Commission this winter.
August Hermann, chairman of the
committee. is one of the advocates
OF the scheme which would limit each
member of the winning team to ST.
400. while the losers would get $3.50
apiece.
This money. according to the Herr
mann idea, will be deducted from so
per cent. of the first four games. the
balance to be distributed equally
among the players of the other four
teen major league teams.
6Under such a plan the world series
would provide a nice bonus for all
the major league players, even tall
enders, and it is believed would also
put an end to squabbling n possible
scandal.

some of the diplomats of the e. p. II.
10 do some heavy thinking. IT is in
regard to the division of the money in
the worlds series games. The ball
players, who, under the rules share
only in the proceeds of the first four
games, which this year included the
eleven-inning tie-score game, think
since tie-score contests do not count
as a victory or defeat for either team,
they should not count as one of the
four games in which the players share
in the gate. 1t is an added revenue
for the club owners and National
Commission, and should be, they say,
an added revenue for the ball players.
