Star.

ST Louis. Mo, Dec. 1f.-President
Schuyler P. Britton Of the St. Louis
Cardinals, admitted yesterday he is aft
er Zimmerman Of the Chiago Cubs, but
said he feared Bresnahan would ask
too much in return. He spiked the
rUmoFs that Bresnahan had asked for
Artie Butler and Cozy Dolan In return
for Zimmerman and Jimmy Archer,
saying he would snap up that kind of a
trade in less than minute.
We have done absolutely nothing
definite" he said. We want another
pitcher and an outfelder and believe
we have prospects Of landing both, al
though this is merely advance specu-
lation,
"Bresnahan has let # be known that
he is willing to trade Zimmerman.
Higgins is in favor Of getting Heinie II
we can make the right sort of deal.
However. he viii not weaken his pitch
ing staff. Hug believes he can do more
with Tin than other managers.
Il do believe that we will make at
least two deals with other clubs. We
will take an even break on the theory
that change of scenery Is good for
any player. That means We will pay g
pretty good price for Zi1n If Roger in
sists on getting rid Of the tempera-
mental one. Higgins has five outfeld-
ers and at least one Of them WILL be
traded or sold. It's a certainty that we
will make at least one swap, although
for my life could not tell you Just now
which enc it will be"

COMMITTEE PEEVED
AT TENNIS PLAYERS

New York, Dec. 1.-THE ranking
committee Of the National Lawn Ten
MS association in its report TO the
parent body again emphasizes the IN
satisfactory response to its request
for data upon which to base It's rank
ing Of players. According to the COM
mittee, the replies received this year
were less than the number turned in
at the end Of the 1914 season. Blanks
were supplied, through every club
holding membership in the associa-
ton, TO all players who competed in
sanctioned tournaments during 1915.
It Is estimated that more than 5000
racquet wieIders competed In 142 tour
naments sanctioned by the U. S. N. L.
T. A, yet but SO singles and az dou-
bles record blanks were returned to
the committee. AS a result g portion
Of the ranking had TO be done upon
unofficial and press reports Of the
play. Since but small proportion OF
the tournament players evince any de-
sire to supply the committee with the
necessary data for ranking purposes,
ether methods for recording the prog
ress Of tennis competition will be
adopted before the 1916 season begins.
