FEDERAL LEAGUERS
MAY START ANOTHER
JOHN VI. WARD SAYS THERE Is
ROOM TOR FOURTH MAJOR
ORGANIZATION.

New York. Jan. 23.--Four major
leagues in the near future Will be
inflicted upon the long-sufferiug pub
lie, OF prophecy made today by John
NJ. Ward is fulfilled. Ward made this
statement to bevy Of sport writer's
at the Hotel Imperial
The promoters of independent
baseball" said Mr.. Ward. =" are pre-
pared TO launch another circuit OF
major pretention, and within the next
season or tno you will tind the Fed
erat champions pitted against this
new rival in worlds series competi>
ton
There is no doubt in my mind that
there Is plenty of room for fourth
major league. and that in time the
pubic will have It's eyes opened to the
fact"
Mr. Ward was asked to name tho
possible makeup OF a fourth cir
cult
That Is the easiest thing in the
world" he replied, Detroit. C1eve-
land and Cincinnati are three recog-
nized major league clubs of the West
1t would not be difflcuit to md q
fourth with which to complete the
western wing louisville always has
been pretty fair sort of town. Then
there is Toledo which Is a hustling
city. Now as to the East, Washington
has only one major league represent
tative. The International League has
evacuated Baltimore. This big city
would welcome a second major league
promotion. New York. OF course, will
not be overlooked The west side Of
Philadelphia is a most fertile field.
There you have a strong eastern cir
cult. have you not?"
Many C-<Srs1 pvn vev,a
John NJ. Ward was asked where
the promoters would find enough good
talent to maintain the established
major leagues reputation in four diff
ferent circuits.
The country Is swarming with good
players he replied. -Four major
leagues will be seen in the near future.
and It will be a big blessing to all
who have the interest OF the game
at heart. For the player 1t will
broaden the scope OF his opportunities
For the promoters 1t will stimulate
interest through continuous baseball
IN all OF the major league cities"
Mr.. Ward further said:
The Federal LEAGUE does not seek
to disrupt organized baseball, or its
principles. Such a movement on its
part would be the height of absurdi-
ty.
'I. of course. am speaking as an
outsider. But I believe that the Fed
eral League seeks nothing more than
the protection by Injunction Of its
players rights"

In the opening half the Tech outfit

half the score stood II to 10. favortng

half the Howitzer boys started out in
a manner that characterized their
playing last season, and before many
minutes had elapsed they had forged
ahead OF the visiting team. From that

tBy d. r. TYLER,

Before a crowd of a thousand or
more persons that taxed the big Blues
Armony to its entire capacity last
night, Company c Of Richnond's crack
infantry battalion ran away with the
big stick in the Blues third annual
inter-company track meet scoring
more points alone than did the other
teams been more evenly matched there
would have been much more enthus-
iaEm on the part of the spectators.
Half Mile Feature.
The Ss0-yard run proved the thriller
Of the evening. ~Dick" Vaughan. a for
mer Richmond College star, started out
In tho lead. followed closely behind by
Burton. Dick" set the pace and Bur
ton followed close at his heels. These
two held these positions until on the
home stretch. and then Burton. to the
surprise of ALL by a wonderful burst
of speed. shot ahead of Vaughan and
crossed the tape a hairs breadth In
front OF him. From the start until the
moment Burton made his sprint every

If Vaughan had not thought II him.
self. he would, in all probability, have
come out victorious
In the 4<o-yard run IL was nip and

the first two laps, with Ancarrow lead
Ing, then McRee. calling up his reserve
energy. forged ahead of Ancarrow and
kept the lead for the rest of tho race.
In the meantime. as the runners were
tearing down the home stretch, j.
Peaseley. who had been running third
managed to crawl ahead of Ancarrow.
and crossed the line a few inches In
front of him. J. Peasiey, Word and

jump. and the honor was awarded to
the first who won on a toss.

WHITE S0X LEADER
GIVEN BIG BOOST

According to Jack Kennedy. mi
nor league player. who halls from St.
Louis and has been in the same
league with Clarence Rowland, the
new manager Of the White Sox. CAL
lahan's successor IL q combination
OF McGraw. Jennings, Grfffith ana
Armour
This is what Kennedy says of Row
land:
IF you think that Rowland de-
serves the name OF Clarence. then we
ought to call McGraw Algernon.
Rowland may be a bush Lacquer,
but ne knows more baseball than a
lot of these big Ieaguers. II he can
down the prejudice Of the big
leaguers against a manager who has
not had any big league experience as
player he will show the public
something
II would not compare him with
Connie Mack. He II not that kind
Of manager. He reminds me some
what Of John McGraw. Then. again.
he is like Hughey Jennings, and when
makes you think Of Clark Grifiith.
Yes. sir. he plans like McC,raw,
jollies his men Hike Jennings and gets
the goats OF the opposing players Hike
Grifirh. In fact, he's the greatest
goat-getter. He'll dig up things that
happened to player perhaps three
or four years back. and remind him
of them when he Is at bat or In the
field. You have got to be game when
Rowland is around. for II there is a
yellow streak in YOU he will bring
II ont.
"ffU reminds nae OF Bill Armour In
the way ne can dig UP young players
and turn them into big leaguers You
see he knows how to handle players.
And he Is one of the finest fellows
In the business. You can't help but
like him. even when he's getting
your goat.
Hell make the wise guys in the
American League sit up II they will
give Him half chance. !.
