HIGHER SALARY COMING.
Walter johnson Likely to Demand
More Money Soon.

The Washington ball club will have
to pay the price for having the speed
king of baseball. Walter Johnson. Ac-
cordins to latest reliable information,
the man who has won more games
than any other big league twirler Will
finish the term of his present contract
with the Senators this season
Right now Johnson Is serving the
last stanza Of his threeye contract.
He signed the document at the begin
ming of the 1911 season, after a miss
understanding with James h. Nc
Alecr. then manager of the capital
crew.
Johnson is drawing S21,00 for three
years work. He signed that contract
after he had reported at the beginning
of the training season, returning to
his Coffeyville (Kan) home, and then
rejoined the team in the east, after
the season had opened.
Johnson's value to the Washington
club is generally rated more than Ty
Cobb's usefulness To the Detroit team.
But Johnson will hardly draw down

Cobb is a wonder. but when You end
there, this kid Shanks is as good If not
better.
Without Cobb's speed on the bases,
Shanks pulls more wise stuff on the
bases than any other player I'm the
league. He knows to fraction of an
inch just how much distance To take
off base, and his delayed steal calls
for absolute perfection. He doesn't
think anything of setting opponents
by their ears on the bases, making
them throw around wildly in an effort
10 get him. This calls for headwork
of a superior nature.
The best outfielder in this league

Shanks. In the field the Washington
player Is just as fast, just as sure on
ground balls or flies and can throw
like a shot to any base"

UNIFORM RULES
BADLY NEEDED
Difference of Opinion of Presi-
dents Confusing to Fans

Some day the men who govern the
major leagues will realize that rules
should be made for all games and not
those of any one organization. All
baseball games are played under the
standard rules as adopted by the Ma
tional league and the American
league.
occasionally a play comes up which
Is not covered in the code and then
confusion results. The umpire has
To use his judgment and there is an
appeal To one or both of the major
league presidents. Sometimes con-
dieting opinions are given on the same
play. This kind of confusion should
recognized as the national pastme of
a country.
There should be uniform intcrpreta-
tion Of the playing rules. This can
only be brought about by committee
whose judgment shall be final AS 1t
is at present the president of the Am
erican league interprets play one
way and the president OF the Nation
al league inierprets Il entirely diff
ferent. In consequence the fans are
continually puzzled
The latest difference of opinion be.
tween Messrs. Johnson and Lynch has
arisen through the play which occa-
sionaliy comes up when "A pitcher
drops the ball while in the act Of
throwing to q base to catch a runner
President Lynch recently issued a rul-
ing that In all such cases, no matter
whether the pitcher dropped the bali
Intentionally or not a balk should be
called. President Johnson, however.
says that on such n play no balk
should be called. on the contrary, he
rules that the BAH shall remain in play
and II shall be up To the pitcher to
redeem the slip or the base runner to
earn his way to the next base.
In discussing the two rulings. Jack
Sheridan, the dean of umpires, says:
ut might be argued with effect that
an umpire can tell when a pitcher has
wilfully dropped the ball. The best
way is to leave the ball in play. The
umpire knows then what to do and
tire is no question about the play.
The pitcher must recover the ball and
work for play on the base runner.
The new National league rule Is not
fair to the pitcher. and the old Amer
lean rule wasn't fair To the base run
ner Under the new rule both will be
given chance. II the base runner
has taken a big lead and deserves a
stolen base he will get what Is coming
to him. IL the pitcher RECEIVERS the
ball AMI gets the base runner, all good
and we'll"
silk" OLaughlin says:
"By this new rule the ball will be
In play and the pitcher will drop the
ball at his own peril and the base run
ner taking a long lead. II the umpire
ruled he had done so purposely. he
would incite disorder among players
and fans. All the umpire has to do
now is To watch the ball and decide
whether the player is safe or out, as
the ball will be in play under such con-
ditions."
