PROPOSE NOVEL
WORLDS SERIES
i FOR NEXT YEAR
Latest Plan is For Sport
SCribeS to Select Two All
Star Teams - All Clubs
Would Share in Profits.

NEW YORK, Dec. As an after
math Of the recent worlds series a
number OF suggestions have been ad-
vanced for revising the present system
IN vogue in the meeting of the pennant
winners OF the two major leagues each
Various objections have been
raised by both magnates and players
regarding the round robin series as
proposed By Garry Hermann and
other suggestions along sin1ilar lines.
The latest proposal, which came from
a New England baseball authority.
calls for a real inter-league series with
all-Amer1can teams from the National
and American leagues playing for the
worlds title.
1t is proposed that a committee Sc
lected from the member of the Base-
ball Writer'S association appoint two
all-league teams, one from the Amer
lean and the other from the National
league. and that these combinations
play a series OF nine games for the
worlds championship, each game 10
be played In a different city on the
two big circuits.
Forty Players in Series.
The plan calls for the choice 10 be
limited 70 20 players in each league.
e-A-A 624 NVAAA AAAAtAA a pAdFt - liz
bihty 10 two years Of such worlds
championship play. The selection OF
each player woul6 be made by a ma
1ority vote In the committee and no
city would have more than one rep
resentative on such committee.
The father OF the idea points out
that such a plan would provide a Sc
ries between the best players OF each
league and would thus prove a test
Of the playing ability Of the two rival
organizations. IT would further give
star players in second division clubs
a chance TO share in the worlds series
money and the fans Of the two leagues
cults an opportunity To witness at least
one game OF Zach seasons worlds
series.
All Clubs To Share.
From a financial standpoint N Is
clubs composing the two major
leagues would all share in the receipts
and the leading players as we'll. BY
limiting the eligibility of a player TO
two years n way would be open for
new and rising players TO figure in the
series.
1t Is pointed out hat such a plan
would do away with the jealousy and
jeers of those players and
who feel that they are entitled 20 a
portion OF the thousands of dollars
now annually divided by the leading
clubs OF the two leagues. Those who
have heard the scheme explained and
do not approve OF il. claim that it is
too UtOpian for professional baseball
and opens the way for charges Of
favOritism n wire pulling during the
selection process. They further con
tend nat he interest. being national
rather than centralized. would result
in a heavy falling off in gate receipts
and lead to the eventual collapse of
the worlds series as the climax Of the
baseball season. Regardless. however.
or personal opinions. the fact that
such a broad plan should have been
evolved shows that there are baseball
men who do not believe that the pres
ent worlds series is the last word in
Americas national sport.

That Commission Matter"

one matter concerning Anderson
must be settled before he is at liberty

before he can play in organized base

KING NICK OF MONTY.

King Nicholas of Montenegro has
become a very prominent figure upon
the European horizon, and it is GER
tain that the powers do not know
just what attitude to assume toward
him since his wonderful success in
achieving the downfall of Scutari.
How to dislodge the Montenegrins
from Scutari without fighting the
little kingdom is nut that the pow
ers will have to crack and it is known
that though may countries have
armies almost as large as the entire
population of Montenegro, no one is
anxious to fight Nicholas, who seems
to bear a charmed life. His success
in battles have been almost phe-
nomenal and he is not afraid of any
thing, anybody or any country

LET THEM ALL PAY.

1t is easily understandable that the
income tax is about the most unpopu-
lar measure brought forward in many
years. 1t is tax on the brains of the
individual, who has by combined in
telligence and hard work achieved a
competence.
The reduction in the cost of living
promised, but which may prove but
an iridescent dream, is welcome to the
family man, but if the income is also
reduced the gilt is removed from the
ginger bread.
There's one thing about the income
tax bill that looms up. Salaries fixed
by law are exempt.
Just why members of Congress and
the great army of pap eaters general
ly should not have to pay, pay, pay
with the rest is not clear, nor is il
fair. In his absolute impartiality
President Wilson should have this
amended.

THE LONGEST FLIGHT.

Another approach to fight in an
aeroplane which would cross the At
lantic, where the ocean is narrowest,
is reported from Europe. The French
aviator, Guillaux, started from the
frontier of Spain and made continu-
Gus flight to Holland, traversing more
than 1000 miles. He accomplished
this feat in few minutes over TWEEN
ty-two hours. averaging almost fifty
miles an hour.
There is point between Brazil
and Africa where the Atlantic is not
much over 1900 miles wide. 1t
would require only little more than
Guillaux's fight to make continu-
GUS air voyage from shore to shore.
Indeed, the difference would be so
lsmall. in comparison with what he

AFFAIRS IN ENGLAND.

England's prosperity is subject
of which much is near these days, for
the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr..
is taking advantage of
every opportunity to send the good
news broadcast throughout the coun-
try. There are counteracting infiu-
ences, however. Prosperity will al
ways take care of itself If ii comes
in the proper way. Therefore a
thumb-nail as it were, has been plac-
ed on the matter Of England's good
times. 1t is known that the attitude
of other European government to-
ward England and toward each other,
is causing some interesting discussion
in Government circles. For instance
the situation between Germany and
France is about as keen as possibly it
could be on account of the persistence
of German airmen in accidentally
landing on the French border Eng
land is also hoping that the visit of
the King and Queen to Geramny next
month will create better feeling be-
tween England and Germany. Just
how King George relishes the idea OF
having the King of Italy in Germany
on an official visit at the same time,
is not known.

THE BALDWIN BREAKS GROUND

THE Baldwin breaks ground is
supposed to be the intelligence that
will electrify the entire region. 1t is
the thing that the region has been
waiting for ever since the Indiana
Steel company built its plant at Gary
Breaking ground is merely the
visual confirmation of what we al
ready know. Breaking ground is not
for the benefit of the real estate deal
er, the skillful investor. IT is for
the benefit of the doubling Thomases.
When the officials of the Baldwin
Locomotive Works actually closed the
deal for the purchase of the land for
the company and then took flyer in
some adjoining acreage; that was
enough to satisfy the wise ones. They
knew the plant would be built just as
soon as possible.
And so the wise ones bought the
property of the doubling Toms and

strange if he does not try the great
Hight across the ocean before long
or see some other "birdman" achieve
that triumph.
1t is still an open question whether
the airship or the aeroplane will be
first to carry a man across the At
lantic, but this latest flight in a
heavier-than-air machine looks like
impending victory for the smaller and
swifter device.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1913-05-03

took advantage of the delay In build
ing the plant to get set for the big
boom
Coteries of Hammond capitalists
have been buying East Chicago bust
ness property ever since the memoir
able tenth of January of over a year
ago. They have been buying quietly,
steadily. secretly.
They did not know when the
formality of the breaking of ground
would take place. They did not care
particularly. They bought with the
certainty that they would be able to
carry the load until the Baldwin did
build
Most of this buying has not been
for speculation. The purchases have
been made as an investment. The
purchases have been made as an in
lvestment. The purchasers expect to
, improve the property as soon as con-
ditions warrant. Most of them are
willing to build in advance of the
needs of the city, just as was done
in Gary.
1t is safe to say that there has
been five dollars of Hammond money
invested in East Chicago real estate
to one dollar of East Chicago money
since the Baldwin located. This real
estate will have to be made revenue
producing in time. That means i'm
lprovements.
i Thus the aims and ambitions of the
lpeople of Hammond are similar. tc
those of East Chicago. Some of the
most persistent boosters East Chicago
has are Hammond men. Naturall,
Ithey are boosting their own game but
whatever the motive they are booster:
just the same.

PERILS OF HOLDING PUBLIC Of

(From the Rensselaer, Republican,
Trustee Tunis Snip of Keener
township had a runaway near Rose
lawn this Thursday morning and it
almost resulted seriously for him.
He was driving to Roselawn to take
a train for Rensselaer, and stopped
to talk to a hire man on the Otis
ranch. Two dogs, neither of which
belonged to the trustee. started a
fight right under his horse and the
animal at once began to jerk and
kick and as Mr.. Snip said, tried to
climb into the buggy backwards. He
realized that the buggy was not
large for both and decided to jump
out and did so.
He was considerably bruised abou.
the legs and his clothing was torn
and soiled. The shin of his right leg
was barked for several inches and
his left foot somewhat sprained.
The horse is ordinarily a very
gentle animal, but a dog fight right
beneath him was enough to frighten
him.
