NEW YORK. Feb. 22.-That old be-
whiskered gent who back in The stone
ages somewhere. announced that
every action has its reaction must
have been looking into the dim and
misty future at the 1915 baseball
chaos. Certain It is that the reaction
of frenzied finance in our national
pastime is here. Never was a thing
more fully demonstrated than at the
recent meeting of National League
magnates here.
Thirty-two berths in the National
League occupied last year will be va
cant this season. That means a saw
ing of from $4,000 TO 100000 to
the magnates and the blighting of 80
aspiring youngsters hopes. For the
moguls decreed that no club should
carry more than 21 men from May
TO September 1. Last year they
were allowed TO pay travelling eX-
penses for 25.
Thirty-two jobs have been sudden
ly snatched away from ball players.
Friends of o. B. lay the blame on the
Feds. Federal adherents, quick to
resent anything of the sort, claim
[ that its merely the result Of hard
times, and deny absolutely that the
/ Feds arc responsible for anything
that would take anything away from
the sun-burned athletes.
BE that as Il may, the retrenchmeni
days are here. Ball players a few
months ago held up the Federal ogre
as a means of drawing fat contracts
from their o. b. bosses. Now their
bosses tell them il they can helI
themselves any by taking the hurdle
go to H. That is what President
James Gaffney OF the champion
Braves told Lesley Mann at the Ma.
tional meeting. Mann wanted S3.-
500; Carney offered $4,000 and re
fused to bulge.

W.C.A. HITS SNAC IN
SALESIANUM FIVE
Local Quintette Hand Down
StaterS Short End OF
81 To IL Game
WERE EASY THE
ENTIRE JOURNEY
BY BILL MCGOWAN.

Playing in championship form the
Salesianum Catholic High School bas-
ketball quintet administered drub-
bing TO the Wilmington Conference
Academy of Dover on Saturday af-
ternoon by 80 to II count.
At no stage of the game did the
down-State boys threaten or scare
the local boys. Salesianum held a
lead at the close of the first half
by a 16 TO 5 score. The visitors had
with them quintet of husky floor
boys, who put up a good game, fight
ing every inch of the way, and took
their medicine like true sports. The
warriors of the gold and gray, how
ever. played a dazzling game from
start to finish. Although they were
outweighed considerably, their clever
passing simply baffled the conquer
ors of Wilmington High School.
AL DOugherty, who holds down
guard position for the locals. put up
sensational game. He broke up the
team play of the visitors time and
again, single handed. Al managed to
toss in few tWo-pointers. besides
being all over the floor starting the
wonderful passing of his team. Much
can also be said of Bud O'Neil, the
hustling forward. Bud was handi-
capped somewhat with a boil on his
head, but when the game became ex-
citing he forgot his troubles and dis
played great head work. Captain Clem
Carney put up his usual good game,
oaging field goals from all angles,
and being the pivot man when Sal
Iofw ofr n q
stunts.
Francis Dougherty and John Dough-
erty also put up spectacular exhi-
bitions.
For the visitors Robinson was the
shining light. He Gagged some beauti-
full shots. which brought applause.
A large crowd attended the game
and everybody was satisfied that Ar
thur Malloy's crack Salesianum FIVE
is the best passing team in Delaware
barring none. Il is a we'll known
fact that the boys from Eighth ana
| West streets have a wonderful all
round galaxy of stars.
It is likely that the Dover FIVE will
seek another game with the locals,
the game to be played in Dover.
