SEEKS GAME HERE
Portland Basketball Team
Nav Be Accommodated.

Probably the first out Of town bas-
ketball team to be seen in Richmond
this winter will be from Portland, Ind.
A letter has been received by Physical
Director Pearse of the Y. NJ. c. A.
stating that a team has been already
organized in shat city and expressing
a desire to play game in this city
in the near future If satisfactory ar
engagements can be made, the Portland
team will probably be matched with
the Y. M. G.. A. first team.
Having too much to attend to with
his gymnasium classes and forty bas-
ketball teams, Director Pearse has
turned over the managership of the
All Stars to Louis Dunning, who will
schedule all games for that team this
winter.
A large crowd is expected at the
association gymnasium tomorrow ev-
ening for the big basketball fest"
which will herald the opening of the
local. season. Three good games have
been arranged, which will be run off,
one after another, without intermis-
sion, giving lovers of the indoor sport
almost two hours entertainment for
the price of admission to single
game.
The All Stars, the Earlham fresh
men, two high school teams and two
teams from the Y. NJ. c. A. will oc.
cupy the floor during the evening. The
games will be started at s o'clock.

BASKETBALL GAMES
Work of Completing Sche-

ried on.

The E,arlham basketball schedule is
about completed with the exception of
naming the dates for the various
games. The Quakers will play l. L.
and Purdue, but these dates cannot
be fixed until after the conference
dates are named. With their dates for
the two state institutions still uncer-
tain the secondary college cannot com
plete their own schedules until the
dates for their games with the two
universities are settled.
Earlham this year will meet Indiana
both here and at Bloomington and will
play Purdue and Notre Dame on their
own floors. Games are also practical
ly assured with Wabash, Franklin,
Butler, Rose Poly and the Winona Ag-
gies.
All efforts thus far to line up De
Paw for a game have met with fail
ure. 1t has been rumored over the
state that the Methodists will not put
a basketball team upon the floor this
year. Basketball at Greencastle has
never been a success, due to the fric-
ton that invariably arises among
Methodist quintettes.

Four of the Twenty
Requests.
NJ A G. n ATES SILENT

NEW YORK. Oct 24.-In baseball
circles yesterday the suggestions
which it is said the players fraternity
will submit to the magnates formed
the main topic of conversation. Opin-
ions differed on the demands of the
players, but to the most of the fans
it seemed that it would only be fair
to the magnates to take up several of
the recommendations
The national agreement only is
binding between leagues and clubs.
and the fraternity seems within its
rights to ask that its suggestions be
embodied in the rules governing the
players and in the actual agreements
between magnates and the individuals
themselves.
cussing the demands which will be
submitted at the annual meeting of
the two major leagues
Western magnates stand willing to
adopt four of the twenty suggestions
that have been submitted by the fra
ternity.
Dislike Transfer Clause.
The club owners undoubtedly will
turn a deaf ear to the recommended
ton that it be provided in the rules ::
When a player is transferred he shall
De transferred SUBJECT 10 all the terms
of his contract"
That would necessitate doing away
with salary limits in the minor or
CARNATIONS and incur many hardships
for the major league owners. The
magnates see no reason why a play.
er who has outgrown his usefulness
in major league should be paid a
major league salary by minor league
club. The suggestion might receive
consideration if it appertained only to
the transfer of player to team in
the same league or in the same class
league.
/ If the fraternity asks the magnates
to make a ruling whereby a player
when he receives his unconditional
release, or when waivers are asked
upon him, he shall be notified in writ
! ing to that effect" the players organ
iZation is likely to be turned down
The magnates are willing to notify a
player in writing of his unconditional
release. but see no reason for notify
ing a player when waivers have beer
asked for him. Such a procedure
would not benefit the player, while ir
many cases it would hurt club anG

the fans are skeptical. The bout gives
promise of being thriller and one
of the greatest staged here in many
years. But other bouts have given
the same promise and have resulted
only in adding to the disgust of the

The white hope" contingent is re-

this city, which for many years has
been one of the best fght towns in the
country. 1t has paid out it's money
gladly, willingly to see fights, but the
innumerable burlesque performances
that have been press-agented as fights
between white hopes, have robbed New
York of its enthusiasm.
New York, after two years and more
of witnessing white hope bouts, has
grown quite tired of them

M'LEAN IS SATISFIED
Larry Says He Shared Equal
ly With Rest.

BOSTON, Oct. 23.-Larry Mclean,
who caught for the Giants in the only
game they won during the recent cham
pionship series, denied the report that
he was dissatisfied with his treatment
by the Giants in regard to the divi-
sion of the worlds series receipts. In
statement issued today he said he
received a full share, the same as the
other players.
A rumor, which likely had it origin
in the ''stove league was started
here today that Roger Bresnahan, Cub
catcher. and former manager of the
Cardinals, would lead the Brooklyn
Dodgers through 1914. In that he is
not needed by the Cubs, a trade of
some kind might effect such shift.
