OFF TO THE WAR.
Andy Kyle, Former Cincinnati Out
fielder. Joins Ontario Cavalry.

CINCINNATI, January a3.-Andy
Kyle, outfielder, may not have been
first of the Reds in the batting aver
any other organized base ball aggrega-
tion-in the field of war. Andy Kyle
has gone to the fighting line and ex-
poets to show the Germans along the
Rhine more class than he ever showed
the Germans over-the- Rhine. A Cana
dian by birth and a British subject, Mr.
Kyle has enlisted in 4 troop of Ontario
cavalry and is on his way to battle.
1t is supposed that Mr.. Kyle. to in
sure success in battling the Teutonic
foe, has taken along good hickory
bat, a fielding glove and his spikes.
The bat will discount sword or bay
convincing when applied to a German
helmet. with the glove an expert
fielder like Kyle can stop the bullets.
and the spikes will be simply invalu-
able when 1t comes to climbing hills
or scaling the walls of the forts when
they must be taken by storm.
"A ball player writes Mr.. Kyle,
should have no difficulty in becoming
a fierce and terrific soldier. Let him
imagine that all the opposing troops
are umpires. and the rest is easy"
Andy Kyle played only half sea-
son with the Reds, his small size SEEM
like a good little hitter and was rat
Ting fast outfelder. Since leaving the
Reds he has played in the Southern and
Central leagues, but will hardly re-
turn unless the war ends sooner than Is
generally anticipated.

NAVY DEFEATS c. J..
Scrappy Basket Ball Battle
Goes to Middies, 28 to 9.
LITTLE UNDUE ROUGHNESS
Embryo Admirals Are First to Score
and Lead All the Way
Through Game.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, January 23.-In a
game that was scrappy all the way, yet
free from any undue roughness, the
Naval Academy basket ball team won
from Catholic University Of Washing
ton on the armory court this afternoon
by a score of 2S to 3.
In spite of the drizzle. the game WAS
keenly contested and from a spectacu
lar standpoint was the most interest
ing seen at Annapolis in a long time.
The Middies led off in the scoring and
Tailed three goals from the court in
the first few minutes of play. Overesch.
one of the guards. seemed to have the
keenest eye in the opening stages and
Gagged the ball Oh the first two occa-
sions. Then Smith. the Navy captain.
came along with a tally when he shot
goal from near the middle of the
court, and il was a difficult throw. too.
Caffrey was the first to make a count
for the Catholics. He got a field goal.
The remainder Of the first half was
very stubbornly fought and ended with
the scoring figures reading Navy, -.
c. T., 3. The score at the close of TINS
period just about showed the superior
ity of the Middies over the Washing
tonians, while in the second half, which
was almost as bitterly fought, the
middies showed to practically the same
advantage.
AS an indication of the scrappiness OF
the game total of twenty-seven fouls
were committed. Seventeen OF these
were charged up to the Catholics. as a
result of which Smith placed eisht
points to the credit of the Navy score
by successful shots for the basket. The
m,ddies we're faulty in ten instances,
and White of the Catholics made goou
a half of the opportunities.

AWAIT OUTCOME OF SUIT
Special pispatcb to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PITTSBURGH, January 2S.-Four
we'll known minor leagues, one being
a New England circuit, have offered
to affiliate themselves with the Fed
eral League at any time. The truth
of the above statement was verified
this afternoon by President Ed W.
Gwinner of the local Federal League
club. Mr.. Gwinner returned home
yesterday morning from Chicago,
where he attended the opening ses-
sion of the Federal Leagues anti-trust
suit against organized base ball!
The matter was discussed by the in
dependent moguls assembled in Chi
cago and all seem to be in favor of
the plan. Mr.. Gwinner said his league
would have a farm for surplus players.
Outcome of Suit Awaited.
Much depends on the outcome Of the
suit before Judge Landis at the pres
ent time," declared Gwinner. Each
Of the four leagues has through a
representative offered to come under
the independent flag, and at least two
of them were willing to come in be-
fore the suit was even settled"
According to Gwinner the minor
league officials made their offers vol
UNFAIRLY and without any solicitation
from the Feds whatever. Each gave
the assurance that his colleagues could
be Influenced to make the change and
many of them were already decided.
Gwinner said he was not at liberty to
name the leagues that have offered
to become farms for the Feds, but he
declared that they are we'll established
circuits in prominent sections of the
country.

1t was possible to turn these PLAYERS
over to some minor league club on op.
tionat agreements for development but
under existing conditions the minor
league clubs demand some assurance that
such players will be of service to them
before they will consent to take them
over.
There are four or five PLAYERS on the
Washington list whom Griffith would
IKE to place in the minors and yet has
not been able to find any small league
club that Will accept them. Buck Bar
ton, the local pitcher, and Hedgepetli.
the southpaw. are two whom Griffith has
been unable to place and may have to
release outright.
The minor leagues are retrenching as
never before. The past season was a
most disastrous one for the small
leagues and It is but natural, that these
organizations should curtail to such an
extent that they will avoid losses or hold
them down to a minimum
For the past few years the American
Association, for instance, had a play
ing season of five and half months
duration. during which it played 16s
games. just fourteen more games than
the major leagues played in six
months.
In order to accomplish this the
smaller league scheduled lot of dou-
BILE headers and had decidedll few open
dates. Next season this league is to
have but a five-month season, and
while 1t is not announced how many
games will be played. it is sure to
save the league lot of money, as
the players contracts will be for only
five months. in addition to the cuts in
salary which existing conditions have
made necessary.
Had the ball players as a whole ap-
preeiated year or SO ago that they
were obligated to an extent to organ
lied base ball. which had made their
prosperity possible, present conditions s
would not exist. 1t was the eagerness
of the players to grab higher Salaries.
regardless of what the ultimate result
might be, which made the Federal
League possible. and their punishment
IN the end may be severe, for when
the smoke has cleared away it is the
players who will have to suffer. I'm
fortunately it will be the loyal as
well as the disloyal who viii have to
undergo hardships.
