FEDS PREPARE TO
PUSH Their WAR
chifeds are After rip" Ha-
Says
Rebels Are Well Fixed.

Chicago, Nov se.7lAfter a precari-
existence the f~aseball dove Of
peace was again ruftled yesterday. 1t
was with rip" Hagerman's arrival
at the Chicago Federal league office
that the bird took wings for parts un-
known. Hagerman, former Cub and
last season Of the Cleveland American
league club, sounded the first note of
discord in the renewal of the war
fare between the Federal league and
organized baseball when he practical
ly came to terms with President
WeeBh1nan of the Chifeds.
RIP spent the better part Of the
afternoon closeted with President
Weeghman and Manager Tinker, and
at the conclusion Of the conference
the elongated pitcher said that he
would never again play with the Maps.
He asserted that he had not received
a square deal from Cleveland. and, al
though he set a good record for a tail
end team, he got very little credit for
his performance.
Maps Wanted Grip"
Manager Birmingham insisted
last summer that I sign a two-year
contract" said Hagerman. "but I told
Grand Forks daily herald. (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1914-1916, 1914-11-26

him I did not want to sign just then.
After that I became the 'warm-up'
pitcher for the club. I was in good
condition all season, as my record will
show. The fact that I lost I'VE games
by the score of / to 0 shows what
backing I had" :
President Weeghman would only
say that he had talded with Hager-
man. but while RIP" was there. there
tracts being carried from the outer
to the inner Office. The head of the
Chifeds said he figured that Hager-
man would make a good man for the
club, and this was seconded by Joe
Tinker. who added that the club was
after another outflelder and an in
fielder and two more pitchers, includ-
ing Hagerman.
After the Hagerman interview word
was given out that there will be war
from now on and that all the players
needed will possibly be signed this
week and the list given out at the
annual meeting Saturday. At the same
conference will be announced a war
fund which will carry the league
through another year.
"Bun," Says Plamondon.
1T is all bunk, these stories that we
have lost all the.way from $500, 900 to
$900,0 900 during the past season." said
Vice President A. D. Plamondon of
the Chifeds while discussing the out
look yesterday. IF you are a betting
man lay a wager that the total losses
in the Federal league were less than
%S150,00O for the entire season. That
should spike all those absurd rumors.
Now. we could have had peace In
baseball in a minute had we only
looked out for the Chicago club, but,
of course, we counted in all the rest
of the owners, and, as a matter Of
fact. they were less inclined to dis
cuss peace terms than was organized
baseball.
: We would welcome peace on an
equitable basis, but we are prepared
for war. Now, talking about the pros
perity of organized baseball, it might
be we'll to bear in mind that our team
on the North Side drew 50, 900 more
fans than did the Cubs on the West
Side, and then they talk about US go
Ing broke. Also don't forget that IL We
start the season we will finish it, and
o car give odds Of 100 to 1 that we
will de both.'
1t was apparent that it was a busy
day for the Federal board Of strategy.
Messenger boys rushed in and out Of
Weeghman's and President Gilmore's
offices all afternoon and the heads Of
the local club and Of the league were
In frequent conferences.

portant, in anything. But it comes
unbidden. Breaks invariably are
made by alertness on the part of the
individual or team which gets them.
For an example. take two teams
which are engaged In a football bat
tie. The fourth period Is under way,
neither eleven has scored. A punt Is
essayed, a forward breaks through,
blocks the kick, picks up the ball and
runs so yards for a touchdown.
Luck says the losers. From their
point it was. The victors prefer to call
it a break of the game" and they are
more nearly correct.
In nine cases out Of ten the forward
who broke through to block that kick
was just a triae more alert. mentally
and physically, than the opponents.
He knew something desperate had to
be done. He put his all into the eff
fort. He caught the enemy off guard.
In fact. he made hat break" It
would not have come to him had he
not been keyed up to take advantage

MAULBETSCH IS

Michigan's Star Left Half
Refuses to go to sidelines

Ann Arbor, Mich, Nov. ,26.-one of
the numerous reasons why Johnny
Maulbetsch, the German dreadnaught

serves serious consideration for ALL
the most durable young men on the

Some star football players make
most Of their gains along the corri-
doris Of a hospital. They are great
performers when they are In the
game, but they arc " out of splints
long enough to be Of any great value
to their teams.
Yost has had a flock of lads in his
tim who might have made the "All-

MT devoted 20 much Of their talents
to entertaining medical students who
were interested in the treatment, OF
fractures.
1t is rather aggravating for a fell
low to show q lash Of wonderful
form in a couple Of games in his
clutches by carload lots. 50 as to get
them cheaper.
Minor Hurts Are Forgotten,
'Mauly" doesn't belong to this type.
He not only is a great football player,
but one who can be depended on to
show up for each game with the reg
ular number Of arms, legs and collar
n IN a fair state Of preservation.
He has learned the trade Of making
touchdowns and he works at it.
In almost every game this fall the
opposing team has cherished q secret
hope that Mr.. Maulbetsch might be
laid out. It would be unfair to say
that there has been any deliberate in.
tention Of getting him, for this style
OF football isn't being -practiced in the
best families to the extent 1t formerly
was.
But, all the same. any man who has
tackled or blocked "Mauly" has taken
pains to make his work as strenuous
