CHICAGO, Ill, Jan. 9.-Frank L.
Chance will begin his duties as man
ager of the New Mork American League
team on February IL, according to in
formation given out today. The Peer
less Leader having signed up for what
is thought to be the largest terms ever
offered a manager will remain here I'M
I'll Saturday. Owner Farrell prepared
to leave for New York today.
The Chance contract will run for three
years 1t is yariously rumored that the
new manager will receive $4,000 per
year with per cent net profit of the
club added. This is accredited as true.
Farrell and Chance discussed the
spring training trip in Bermuda and the
Strengthening of weak spots In the
team. Chance was told that he would
be given full charge and could go ahead
and do as he chose.
Chance is heartily pleased with his
lot, and while not predicting anything

UMPIRE TO TRAIN
WITH WHITE SOX ON
THE PACIFIC COAST
Frank Haskell to Join
Comiskey's Team En-
Route to Slope.

CHICAGO, Jan. Slack Haswell, who,
despite contrary statements, is still
chief umpire in the Western League,
will do his spring training this year
with Charlie Comiskey's White Sox on
the Pacific coast, according to announce
ment made by him last week.
Last year Haskell accompanied the
Omaha team, Of the Western League, to
Joplin. Mo. He umpired all the games
in Joplin, and in fact, every game in
which the Omaha team took part, prior
TO the opening Of the season. He played
ball with the team and took the same
long runs. This year. however, he Will
not lay himself open to the criticism of
the other clubs by following a Western
League team.
He has written to Charlie Comiskey
and that venerable peer of baseball was
tickled TO death at the idea and Haskell
will Join the White SoN when they pass
through Omaha during the latter part Of
February, bound for the Pacific coast.
Haskell will get out and play ball with
the Comiskeyites and will umpire all the
games in which the White SoN take
part. In this way ne expects to get
his eye in good shape and prepare for
the abuse, knocks, and kicks of the
Western League fans, who, by the way,
are a very particular lot when II comes
to umpires.
Haskell does not take any stock in the
story that he has been let out with the
rest of the umpires. He says he will not
believe 1t until he receives official word
from Tip O'Neil. He says he is for
Tip" at all times and Is certain that
he will still retain the leadership of the
Western League. Even IL Haskell
should be let out of the Western
League. he is sure of getting on Ia
other leagues. He has a standing offer
TO work In the American Association
and has received offers from the South
ern League. Pacific Coast League, and
tho Northwestern League, not to men,
ton several leagues In the East.

The Law of the Game.

No matter how good they are,
No matter their rank or fame;
No matter the grip they tighten with
In the whirl and swirl of the game;
No matter the stride they hold,
If they only stick long enough
Another will come to the front some day
With double the line of stuff.
No matter how fast they look,
No matter how great their Day;
No matter the power or speed they show
In the wrack and wreck of the fray;
No matter that thousands crown
Them kings of a nations fad,
Some day another will reap the field
With something they never had.

WILMINGTON NOT
A. ONE IN CT Ass
There Are Many Cases Similar to His Where Athletes
Do Not Compete Because of the Pro-
fessional Ruling.

BOSTON. Mass, Jan. s.-No less
authorities on amateur athletics than
James E. Sullivan and Edward Z
Babb, former presidents Of the ANA
terr Athletic Union. are certain that
Paul Wilmington, the Harvard ath-
lete, is a professional because of his
position at Harvard. Wilmington IL
not the first athlete who has been
judged so, and today there are men
connected with the development of
amateur athletics who hold positions
similar to that of wilmington, WHO
do not believe for minute that
they are eligible to compete, just
because of the rule under which such
cases come.
DR.. Gulick. one of the greatest work
ers in amateur sport, comes under the
same head, and he. himself, feels that
he Is not entitled to amateur standing.
Edward E. Babb, when president of the
A. A. U. in 1902, had to deal with Ellery
III. Clark, the well-known amateur, be-
cause Of the latter having accepted a
position as supervisor OF Fairgrounds.
Clark had accepted the position and was
working about a month when he was
asked to confer with Babb. Clark felt
that he did not in any way impair his
amateur standing by accepting the posi-
ton, but when asked II he did not be-
lieve that he had been selected to such
a position because Of his knowledge OF
athletics, he agreed that he believed
that he had been. On being informed
that he had forfeited his right to COM
pete as an amateur athlete by holding
the job he was very much surprised.
Clark was anxious to continue az q
competing athlete and was told that he
would have to return whatever money
he had accepted and resign from the
playground association, the head Of
which was to notify President Babb
when such was done.
Given Clean Bill.
Clark. of course, was given a clean
bill on doing so because of his unfa-
miliarity with amateur law, and 1t is
possible that wilmington would be
treated likewise II he was to follow
Clark's example. Wilmington, however.
has no intention of competing. and 1t is
possible that nothing will be done with
him unless he again should care to en-
ter competition.
It has been reported in some quarters
that Wilmington Is being made the
goat" This, the registration commit
tee of the N. E. A. A A. U; says Is not
SO. He is no different from hundreds of
other athletes who have identified
themselves with A. A. u. by registering,
the body clai<as, and while under the
jurisdiction of the A. A. U. he will have
to abide by its laws The wrestling
committee Of the New England associa-
ton asked the registration committee
for the status of Wilmington, with the
idea that wilmington might want to
compete as a wrestler. And as the New
England wrestling committee has ap-
piled for the national wrestling cham
pionships, 1t wanted no question raised
as to Withington's eligibility.
Several times the A. A. U. authorities
have tried to make legislation for just
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1913-01-09

such cases as that Of wilmington and
other men who hold positions because
Of their knowledge Of athletics. This
was found to be impossible and such
men as A. q. Mills, Hepbron, DIR. Quick
and others. who have done much In the
promotion OF amateur athletics, are not
classified as amateurs.
The members Of the registration COM
mittee were not In harmony at Friday
nights meeting. and It was only because
Of the late hour that no decision was
rendered. 1t Is known that one member
Of the committee II in favor Of allowing
the matter to rest until Wilmington en-
tiers competition, while another member
II DESTROYS of clearing up the case, for
II was only last September that with
ington competed In the New England
amateur swimming championships
1t Is very likely that the registration
committee win announce its findings in
q few days. and II Is possible that
Charlie Brickley, the Harvard athlete,
who represented this country at Stock
holm, win be asked to appear before
the committee In regard to statement
alleged to have been made by him
which charged rottenness In the A.

Why Not?
SHEPPARD PLANS
A BUSY CAMPAIGN

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Satisfied that
he can race faster on the boards than
ever before in his brilliant career, Mel
middle-distance runner in the country
today, plans an extensive campaign in
the remaining three months of the in
door season. He has entered almost
every meet of any consequence during
January and February and hopes 10
work himself into proper shape for an
assault on the 600 and 1,0cO-yard senior
national championship runs.
Sheppard conferred with Coach Law
son Robertson at the Irish-American
Club yesterday afternoon, at the con-
clusion of which Peerless Mel" gave
his trainer the understanding he would
begin actual training tonight at a local
regiment. He was not pleased with his
showing In the half mile at the recent
Seventy-first Regiment meet. and from
now on, he declares, he would not be
caught mapping.
Xavier's First.
Having rid himself of constant mill
tary troubles, Sheppard looks like a new
man. He has increased in weight. but
hopes to wear down the surplus pound
age in short order.
Sheppard gets a-going Saturday night
at the Xavier A. As diamond meet in
the Twenty-second Regiment armory.
He has entered himself in the 300-yard
run, and we are told he will have sitter
competition than he ever dreamed of.
Tom Halpin in coming down from Bos-
ton and the national uuarter-mile cham
pion, who beat Shep In Pittsburgh, ex-
poets to score again. Sheppard is glad
Halpin will toe the mark with him, for
he declares the Beantown boy will make
him run fast enough to smash Hal
Hollands record for the distance.
Two Events.
Not satisfied with competing in the
800. Sheppard will also start IN the
three-quarter mile handicap. In this
event he will find his work cut out for
him, for he will have to test his speed
against such good ones as Eddie Prick,
Dickgan. Frankie Joyce. w. A. Ander-
son, Gaffney, Kelly. Riley, Devanney.
and Fisher of the Irish-Americans.
On January IL Sheppard will journey
TO Newark to run on the I. A, A. c.
relay team I'm special event at the
Father Mathew 7. A. B. games. He
will start In another relay for the Irish
