Magnates Plan What To Do
If Federals Are Forced Out
Organized Baseball Is Planning Funeral Before Subject
Is Corpse; What Will Become Of Players, Is
Discussed; VIII They Be Barred For Life,
or Quietly Taken Into Fold?
BY MONTY.

7 BW YORK, March 21.-Wherever
~ the Federal league is discussed
by the average fan, the constant
question is, what effect viii it have on
the game in general if the Feds sue
ceed?" The magnates Of organized
baseball hold a different kind Of con-
versation these days when they bring
UP the topic of the Feds The question
they ask is what will be the best
thing to do when the Feds so bUst?"
The mOguls of the two old circuits
really are so confident the Feds haven't
a chance that they already are planning
what to do with the corpse when the
subject dies. A number of plans have
been suggested to cope with various
phases of the problems that will arise
if their predictions of a Federal league
bloWup come true
The first element to demand atten-
ton is the player. According to base
ball rules as they now stand, every
man who begins the season with a
Federal league club automatically
blacklists himself from the organized
fold. OF course in these war times it
is possible that any rule may be waived
in order to steal back players from the
Feds, but that move has not been de-
cided upon yet.
VIII Players Be Barred For Life.

PLAYING ABILITY NOT
REQUIRED OF MANAGERS
Connie Mack and Hank O'Day Are Ex-
amPIes of Mediocre Players Making
Good As Directors Of Teams.

Good As Directors Of Teams.
New York. March 21.-That playing
ability is not necessary in order to be
good manager of a baseball team
has often been asserted and now
Connie Mack and Hank O'Day are put
forth as shining examples to prove
the contention. Connie Mack was only
a mediocre catcher during his activ-
tiles behind the bat. Now he is con-
sldered the greatest leader in the game
II not the premier manager in the his
tory of the national game. Hank
O'Day, as a pitcher, was a pretty good
baseball manager.
Connie and the new leader of the
once famous Chicago Cubs were bat
terry mates many years ago. As a bat
terry there was nothing in the makeup
to stamp them as a pair noted for
genius or prOWeSS. As a matter of
fact, when ODay and Mack Weree due
for the heavy work, the opposition had
little to worry about The last year
Hank and Connie were together was
with the Washington club in 1889.
They acted as the Senator's battery
Just three times and on every occasion
that they worked = the Senators were
beaten. Hank was later signed as a
pitcher by the Giants. The veteran
umpire hurled his first game for the
Giants on July 80, 1889, against the
Senators. Pearson pitched for the Sen
atros, with Mack catching and Arthur
Irwin playing short Hank beat his
old club by the score Of to l.

BALKLINE BILLIARDS
DOOMED. SAYS EAMES

New York, March 20.-Fred Eames,
the three cushion billiard player from
Denver decries balk line billiards and
predicts that in a few years the balk
line game viii die out. In the west,
according to Eames, the cushion car
rom game is again coming to the front
and the public is losing interest IN the
balk line game.
"A thing that is tending to make the
balIz line game unpopular is the absO-
lutte mastery that Willie Hoppe holds
over everybody else. He is a. young EEL
low and unless some other young BILE
Herd genius springs up, he'll be the
kingpin for years and years to come
This is not a very pleasant prospect
whenever Hoppe plays nowadays
it looks like a fOregOne conclusion
that he'll win easily, and who wants 10
attend such a match? These are the
reasons I say that in a short while
balk line playing viii be as dead as
door nail. Then the fascinating cush-
ion carrOm game will come back into
its own"

to stick by the old ship when new
leagues tempt them. Thus the old cir
cults would be hurting themselves
somewhat for the time being in order
to ensure greater security in the years

Little Red Tape Necessary.
But the magnateS figure they prob

ends without absolute enforcement of

stands now, there is a little red tape
necessary for magnate to take pack
a player once declared ineligible. First
the magnate whose contract was

the national commission to consider
his case, and if nobody objects the
player is reinstated. This is likely to

May Force Feds to Minors.
It is suggested by one of the major
league club OWnsrs that the best
method would be to arrange q secret
understanding or "gentlemen's agree
ment" that would bar all the former
jumpers from ever playing in the big
leagues again, forcing them to do the
best they can with minor league clubs
that work under salary limits. This,
he Opines will be the probable dis
position of the matter, which will offer
the spectacle of pitchers like SeatOn
and b'alNenberg pitching to minor
league batters and Joe Tinker batting
against minor league pitchers.

to happen sOOn," he said. "0f course

GYMNASTICS ARE
REPLACED BY SPORT
Competitive Athletics Are More Bene-
fetal Than Gymnasium Drill, New
York University Decides.


New York, March 21.-New York uni
versity has been added to the list Of
educational institutions which have
given up the plan of drill gymnastics
and substituted competitive athletics
for the physical development of its
students.
DR.. Frank H Cam, director of ath-
letics at the university, admits that
gymnastic drill always has been less
popular than competitive games and
that its unpopularity has apparently
increased in recent years despite the
excellent facilities at the gymnasium.
The beginning already made in the
introduction of the new system has
proved a great success. The jumping
events, track meets and other contests
held between the SO men who have
registered in the new work has awak-
ened keen interest and a more favor
able attitude toward physical culture
DR.. Mum, father of athletics at New
York university, has offered handsome
gold, silver and bronze medals for the
winners of various contests in both the
freshmen and sophomore classes.
