HARPER HAS UNIQUE
METHOD FOR TRAINING
Luke Kelley, Former Star, Will
Have Charge of Year Round
Work of Athletes.

While coaching methods of western
football mentors have changed from
year TO year and although some
genius OF the great gridiron game has
almost every season invented some
new device for developing mis- men, 1t
remained for the coaching staff OF the
University Of Notre Dame to put into
action a system that Will keep the
football men in condition practically
the entire year around ana that viii
hold them keyed up tor the grldirOn

Jesse Harper, director of athletics
at NotTe Dame and head coach of the
gold and blue football squad, an
nOunced yesterday the new plans and
made known the fact that Luke KEEL

reputation, will play an important
part in the system.

ball squad will become candidates for
the track team, not merely 10 aid the
track squad, but to develop them
selves for football. Coach Rockne Of
the track team will endeavOr to put

At the conclusion Of the basketball
season, the men who do not go out
for baseball and who will be candi-
dates for the football team next fall,

CONNIE MACK WILL
MANAGE YANKEES?
Inside Story Says He is to- Dispose Of
His Holdings i'm the
Athletics.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. Connie
Mack will manage the New York
Yankees next season. becoming one
of the principal owners of the club
and franchise, if this scheme of Ban
Johnson, president of the American
league, is carried out. This was the
startling inside" information received
here Tuesday night.
1t is almost certain that the Yam
KEGS will be sold To Jacob Rupert,
jr, and Tillinghast Huston. There is
100000 difference in the price asked
and offered and this is holding up the
sale. Rupert and Huston are willing
to buy at 100000, but will meet the
100000 asked.
The American league wants a win
ner in New York and Rupert is will
ing to put his money up under the
proper conditions. He refuses. il is
said, to waste time on experiments
and wants Mack as manager. A deal
is being arranged by which Mack S
$4,000 worth Of stock in the Ath-
letics will be taken off his hands,
leaving him free to consider the New
York offer. In the event of Mack s
going to New York, Jack Dunn, the
Baltimore International league man
ager, probably will be his successor
as manager of the Athletics.

NEW TEAM AT HIGH WILL
BE WINNER SAY REPORTS
Despite Fact That Regulars Leave
This Season Prospects Are Bright
for Next Years Schedule.

Despite the fact that every one OF
the regulars of last years squad grad
uated. prospects for a championship
five at the high school are the bright
est in years. This optimism has de-
vel0ped on account Of an eXtraOrdi-
narily large squad Of capable men VINO
have turned out for the daily grind OF
basket shooting and scrimmage.
But two places seem certain or the
team. Capt. Fernandez will hold
down one forward job, while Wolf is
slated TO occupy a guard position.
These two men have easily displayed
more class than any man out for
places and if they keep on travelling
at the clip they are going now, they
will be the stars of the year.
Sousley, Scott, Sweeney, Hagerty
Sullivan and a host of lesser lights
have come out for the other place at
forward and the selection OF a reg
ular will be a difficult job.
At center Whiteman, captain of the
championship junior five in the inter
class league last year and center on
the second team, seems almost certain
of landing the job. although COllmer
and Garfield will battle him hard I'M
til the final selections are made.
Some good guard material in Ander-
son, Scheibelhut. Zilky. Mueller and
Stanley has shown up and no fear as
to the other position is felt by Coach
Metzler.
No game for next Saturday has been
secured and the season is not expected
TO open before Dec. 10 when tho
Plymouth squad opposes the locals at

ECONOMY TO BE
WEAPON IN WAR
Organized Baseball Will Put In
to Effect StriCteSt Rules
Known to Game-PIayerS to
be Probable Sufferers.
BY Frank G.. Menke.

NEW YORK, Dec. 9. - Organized
baseball has decided 10 continue the
fight on the Federal league, not with
the mythical $4,000, 300 war fund, -
but by putting into effect the strictest
economy rule that ever has been en-
forced the modern history of base ball.
When the magnates of the National
league met today in their second day
session, it was mainly for the purpose
OF formulating some further economy
plans. These probably will hit the
players. The magnates are not con-
tent with their action of yesterday
when they voted TO cut the limit OF
players TO p men and To delay the
opening of the training season 10
March l. They want to make further
cuts in the cost of maintaining a ball
club and the magnates seemed TO be
IN favor Of a plan of greatly lowering
the travelling expenses of the clubs.
Ban Johnson, president of the
American league club, today gave as
surance to PTest John X. Tener OF
the National league, that whatever
economy moves were made by the Ma
tional league also would be made by
the American league. The American
lague some time ago decided to limit
=
There is a possibility that the Ma
tional league magnates will conclude
their meeting today. Usually they
dwaddle along for three or four days,
but Pres't Tener declared that two
DAYS is enough" and the magnates are
trying to rush through the routine
matters.
In the Hobbies of the Waldorf AS
toria, where the magnateS are meet
ing, the future of the New York Yam
KEGS was the main topic of converse
ton. 1t seems certain that the YAM
KEGS Will change ownership very
shortly and ii seemed more than like
~ that Jacob Rupert, jr., the million
aire New York brewer, would secure
control. Getting into baseball would
make a nice advertisement for Rup-
pert beer.
Connie Mack, as one report says, is
to manage the Yankees next season,
but the wise ones" were inclined to
thing otherwise.

Who Will be Handed S10,-
600 Yearly on New Job.

NEW YORK. Dec. g. Charles
Comlskey was on his way back TO
Chicago Tuesday night while Nation
al league and National commission
magnates are still here transacting
business. But Comiskey leaves New
York with the record Of having tran
sacted more business than all of the
rest put together.
In his pocket the old Roman bears
8 bill OF sale for Eddie Collins. star
second baseman OF the Athletics, and
ne has left behind $4,000 in real
money lie has also left a contract
calling for $4,000 more. but while
the first $4,000 was in cash and de-
posted to the credit of Connie Mack,
the second $4,000 viii be paid in in
sediments covering the next five
years.
That is. Comiskey is contracting 70
pay Collins $4,000 a year for five
years and il is reported that this IS
so much more than Mack actually
was paying MIN, no matter what Cos
sip has said in the matter, Collins is
tickled TO death TO think he is going
10 the White SOx.
Comiskey had just time 90 pack his
grip, after completing this deaf be-
fore he climbed aboard h o'clock
train for Chicago.
There is a banquet OF the Wood
land bards in Chicago Wednesday
night said "COmmy." and / would
rather miss all the big league meet
ings in the world than miss that festi-
val.

the White Sox UNNECESSARILY and we
hope now to annex the pennant next
year"
VIII Collins manage the team 20
he was asked
I'm sorry 1 can't stop and talk. -
said Comiskey.
There is a general impression that
Collins will manage the team and
this was strengthened by a close
friend Of COmiskey who remains in
New York to watch the doings of the
rival league magnates.
What will become OF Callahan if
Collins is made manager" this base
ball man was asked.
IF some one hazsEds a guess that
Jimmy will be kept on the Sox pay
roll at a fat salary and then follows
il up with a guess that 'Commy' will
send him out into the bushes as a
scout. / believe that guess will be
about as close as any one will come, %
was the reply.
This same baseball man was au-
thority for the statement that Comis-
key bought Collins outright and that
Mack viii receive no players to com
plete the trade. II had been report
ed that five players had been named
