WAIVERS ON PLAYERS

National League Adopts Rule.
Ignores International Plea
for New York Berth.

NEW YORK, February '11.-Having
adopted the playing schedule for the
coming base ball season shortly after
converting yesterday. the National
League club owners wound up the
business of their annual schedule
meeting last night after a lengthy dis
cussion on the new waiver rule. In
future when a club asks for waivers
on a player there can be no with
drawal. nor can q club withdraw a
claim for q player under a waiver. This
was made a hard and fast rule by a
6-to-2 vote, New York and Pittsburgh
being the dissenting clubs. 1t was
also decided that no manager can ask
Tor waivers or claim a player. Such
action in future must be taken per-
sonally by a club president.
During the discussion on these points
Mrs. Schuyler r. Britton. part owner
Of the ST. Louis club. addressed the
delegates This was the first time that
q woman has taken part in the debates
of the base ball magnates. Mrs. Brit
ton was warmly congratulated upon
her familiarity with the waiver and
draft clauses.
The league ignored the request of the
International League to locate Il club
in the Bronx by not even discussing
the matter. President Barrow said ne
had received assurances that the re-
quest would be considered, and 1t was
plainly seen that Mr.. Barrow was not
pleased when he ascertained after the
meeting that the matter had not even
been discussed by the league.
President Tener said that Mr. Bar
row would receive an answer to his
request IN today's mail. The only an
swer that can be made is that the mat
ter was tabled. President Hampstead

Keeping with the new policy instituted

foot ball system. A complete change
was effected last fall, the whole con-
troll of athletics being given over to
the alumni association. Graduates are
now directing the working of each
branch of sport. and the obtaining
OF one of the greatest foot ball players
in recent years to coach and to insti-
tute what is known to be a successful
policy is in line with their efforts to
bring about q complete regeneration
and new athletic life.
In the last three years Hopkins has
tried out the Princeton, Yale and Chi

tenn taught Briclkley at Harvard fail.
then it is hard to tell what the Balti-
