Brooks Dill, of East Orange, corpora
ton lawyer and capitalist, against
Charles M. Schwab for large counsel
fees in connection with special legal
work performed several years before

counsel for Mrs. Dill, s~tipulations ex-
tending the time for the complaint to
be filed, were made, 80 thai the action

OWNER Of GIANTS
TO WAR AGAINST
TICKET SCALP|NG
Brush Gets Home and Sug-
gests Plan to Avoid
Scandal.

NEW YORK, April 10.-John +.
Brush. owner OF the New York Giants,
arrived in this city yesterday from San
Antonio, Tex, where he has been spend
ing the winter in order to be on hand
for the opening of the National League
pennant race in Brooklyn tomorrow.
One OF the first things he did was to
address a letter to the sporting editors
OF the New York newspapers offering to
place the sale of tickets for the opening
game in the hands OF a committee of
baseball writer's. while furnishing full
clerical force TO attend to the detail
work.
His purpose in doing this is to avoid
repetition of the unfortunate ticket
scandal OF last fall. Mr.. Drush's letter
follows:
Having in mind the ticket scalping
barnacie that fastened itself upon the
baseball public during the last world s
series, and being dcsirous of preventing
a repetition. If possible, when placing
| the reserved seats diagram before the
public for the opening game, I earnestly
request the sporting editors of the daily
newspapers in New York city to unite
in suggesting some plan that will pro-
tect the legitimate baseball patron and
eliminate any speculative pest.
II would be glad to have the baseball
writer's, collectively or through COM
rnittee, aid the clum management, to the
| end that there may be no occasion Tor
complaint or criticism. The manage
ment will gladly place the sale or re-
served seats for the opening game in
| the hands of such a committee and fur
nish such clerical assistance as may be
| needed to conduct the sale"

American Association
Begins Season Today

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April To-
While major league cohorts are ap-
sorbed in anticipation of the opening OF
the season in their respective circuits
tomorrow the fans of the American
Association have their long-anticipated
opportunity today. None the less
marked in pont Of interest and entlu-
siasm, the followers OF Tom Chivtng-
toms circuit start on what promises 10
be the most successful of all American
Association seasons.
In the initial contests today Kansas
City plays at Columbus, Milwaukee at
Toledo, Minneapolis at Louisville, and
st. Paul in Indianapolis. The schedule
calls for a season of 16S games, with
September 20 as the date for the curtain
to fall.
Reports from about the circuit indl-
cate that the outlook is one OF opt-
misn, notwithstanding the fact that all
of the teams were handicapped in their
training by bad weather. Though the
early opening date left little time to
complete the work OF preparation, the
teams swing into action today with
every indication pointing to spirited
race. Mud hen fans, Saints enthusiasts,
and followers OF the Brewers, Cowboys,
Millers, Senators, Colonels, and Hoosiers
all have their eyes toward an eventual
pennant- winning team.
Minneapolis expects to cop its third
successive pennant. Toledo. under the
management of "Topsy' Hartsell, looks
good to finish we'll to the front of the
race. Milwaukee,. Indianapolis. and
Kansas City will be surprised II tney
fail to finish In the first division. The
real strength of the Columbus Club
has yet to be tested. and the Louisville
and st. Paul teams have problems to
solve before they can hope to win.
