BASEBALL RULE SUSPENDED.
Major League Clubs VIII Garry All
Promising PLAYERS.

NEW YORK. April 21-The most
important measure that organized
baseball has yet taken against the
Federal League is the suspension this
season of the iron-clad rule which
compels all major league clubs TO
reduce their playing force 10 25 men
after May Is. This year the major
league clubs may carry all the play
ers they wish. While the National
Commission has made no special an
nouncement on this action, all the
club owners in both leagues have
come to a common understanding that
to turn their young players loose
would be 10 play right into the hands
OF the outlaws.
Il will be possible. however. for
only the most prosperous of the
major league clubs to keep their play
ers throughout the season. The tail
end teams cannot AFFORD IT, AS II is.
it will be a heavy financial burden on
the richest Of the clubs to carry the
excess of playing talent.
This move on the part of the big
leagues is the first action to protect
their reserve forces. While the Fed
erals have threatened 10 organize
minor leagues of their own as farms
for the regular clubs. organized ball
has not taken the scheme seriously.
heretofore.
The suspension of the player limit
rule Will come as big surprise 20
the Federals. because several weeks
ago President Gilmore laid plans to
sign several promising youngsters as
soon as they were released by the
major league clubs in the South.

HOW PENNSY RELAY
RACES Will Be run
Fifty-iive Track Events to
Be Decided in A IL
Hours

Pennsylvania relay race program
this year comprises no less than 55
events. 40 Of these are track events.
This does not include the heats for
the 100 or the hurdles, so that prob
ably 55 track events will be on the
program alone Only three minutes
are given for the half-mile grammar
school race, while but six minutes
are allowed for the mile relays,
which compose the bulk Of the pro-
gram.
The program is so long that for the
convenience of those who are inter-
ested only in the various teams, the
races have been divided into various
sections. The grammar school race
will start at 1 O'Clock and continue
to 1.21. The parochial school race
will consume the next six minutes.
The high schools will have their ten
relay races, in which nearly 80 high
schools will compete. from 1.30 to
2.24. Thus, in the first hour and 25
minutes, no less than 20 events are
on the program.
At 2.30 the trial heats in the l20-
yards hurdle will be held. The pre-
paratory schools will be on the track
from 2.40 to 3.16. The 10O-yards dash
trial will then be held and will be fol-
lowed by the college class relays
from 1892 to 4.2O.
/ The rest of the program will be
consumed in running off the cham
[ niOnehins and thn finals of the tive
! special events noted above The two
mile college championship Of Amer
ica will be the first championship, al
4.26. The big event of the day, the
four-mile championship, in which OK
ford will compete, is listed for $50.
The field events viii go on during
the entire afternoon. There is a dis
Gus throw and a javelin throw, the

in college sport.
