PLAYERS FAVOR HERMANN.
President Fultz Opposed to Dropping
Garry From National Commission.

NEW YORK, January 27-The sug-
gestion that the national commission
drop August Hermann at its next
election will receive no support from
the Players Fraternity. Dave Fultz.
head of the players organization, in
discussing the new demands which the
fraternity has made upon the national
commission, said:
I've have always found Hermann
fair and just in his decisions, we recog-
niZe the unsettled state of affairs in
the minor leagues at present, and con-
sequently in our new demands VIC have
asked no concessions except from the
major leagues. Chiefly we are interest
ed in trying to protect the young play
er who is turned back to the minor
leagues under an optional agreement.
We feel that in many cases such play
ers might be used by other jor
league clubs, and We think it would be
only just that the major league clubs
holding the option on the player should
make up the difference in the figures
between his major league contract and
his salary in the minor leagues"
In discussing the reserve clause Mr..
FultZ stated that he was entirely in ac-
cord with the Interpretation held by
George Wharton Pepper, Counsel for
organized base ball.

AWARDED BOWLING CLASSIC.
New York Gets National Tourney
Second Time in Six Years.

NEW YORK, January 27.-For the
second time in six years New York will
get the National Bowling Association
championship tournament, beginning
Saturday evening. March 20. Arrange
ments have been completed for the
ninth annual tournament of the as
sociation to be held on brand new
alleys" in the Grand Central Palace
over a period of days to be decided
later, as may be made necessary by
the size of the entry. A decided inno-
walton, which has been discussed for
several years, will be the introduction
of a three-man fixture, and it is looked
upon as certain that this popular fea-
ture will be introduced. Under these
conditions it is likely that the tourna-
ment will be run night and day for
at least three weeks. Twelve new
alleys will be built
When the national championship
tournament was held last spring in
Atlantic City the desire of the. bowlers
to visit New York once more was eX-
pressed. and work was Immediately be-
gun to arrange the meeting. The
awarding of the tournament was left
to the governors, who turned 1t over
to committee. This committee has
completed all details and a decision
was reached yesterday.

If President Chivington of the Ameri-

TEN for the coming season it will not
be because, as Chivington says, the

down expenses. The association is
merely following in the footsteps of
most of the other minor leagues. which
have long since cut down the num-
bcr of officials to be on the ball field.
There is comparison between the
single and double umpire system. 1t

Ehoxs OF the Federal League pub
licity department to discredit Chair
, man Hermann of the national COM
mission by giving out a story that he
is to be ousted from the head of the
supreme court OF base ball have alb
solutely failed. Even President Fultz
of the Players Fraternity. who has
not before spoken any words of praise
for any of the major league officials,
comes out with 4 statement, in which
he declares that he and the players
are for Hermann.
How any one interested in the well
fare of base ball could take any other
stand is not clear. No man identified
with the game has done more for it
than Hermann. The first year that
he broke into the sport. il 1902, he
brought about peace between the Ma
ttonal and American leagues. He ac-
complished this BY his unseltishness.
At that time the American League
had taken lot OF star players from
the National League clubs Cincin-
natl, for instance. had lost Sam Craw-
ford and Jimmy Barrett to Detroit,
while other clubs had also suffered.
When peace was discussed between
the owners of the two leagues the
question of what should be done with
the players who had jumped caused a
hitch. 1t was Hermann who paved
the way for peace at this stage by
volunteering to allow the players who
had been taken from his club to stay
with Detroit. Other magnate: fol-
lowed suit. and peace resulted.
Since then Hermann has been the head
Of the commission and he has proven HIM
self fair and capable judge.
Clarence Rowland's task in leading
the White Sox is going to be much
more difficult than that of Bill Dono-
van with the Yankees. The America II
Leagues two managerial experiments
are not starting on even terms. Dono-
van will not be blamed if he fails to
make his team finish in the first di-
vision. 1t has been years since the
| Yankees have cut any figure in the
race, and any sort of Il respectable
showing will put feathers in Donovan's S
managerial hat.
With Rowland il is different. The ac-
QUESTION Of Eddie Collins to the White
SoX has led Chicago patrons of the
game to give the team Il good chance
for the pennant. That makes it tough
for Rowland unless his team should
do the unexpected and be knocking at
the first place door all season. To fin

sidered no achievement for the new

OF TEAM is ALMOST OVER
Wally Smith Only Remains to Be Let
Out Before Training Sea-
son Begins.
BY ]. ED GRILLO.

Mike Mitchell will be a member of
the Richmond International League
team next season. The veteran out
fielder, who finished the season with
the Nationals last year. was turned
over to Jack Dunn, the manager of the
Richmond team, this morning.
Mitchell was procured from Pitts
burgh last fall after Milan was In
capacitated in collision with Dan
Moeller as result of which he frac-
tured his jaw. Mitchell did splendid
work for the team for the first few
weeks. hitting we'll over the 400 mark.
He gradually let down. however, and
finished with an average of .2S5.
During the National League meeting
in New York in December Manager
Griffith made the New York Yankees a
present of Mitchell, whom he wanted
might draw the same salary he re-
ceived here. Frank Farrell, however,
after accepting Mitchell. turned him
back to Griffith just before he sold the
New York club.
Since then Griffith has been tryin;
to place Mitchell with some other big
league club. but failed, and he ar
ranged this morning to have Jack
Dunn sign him for his Richmond ag-
The sale of Mitchell leaves only one
more player who is to be disposed Of
before the team starts its training.
That is Wally Smith, and he may be
sent away most any day now, as Grif-
minor league clubs who want Smith.
The last two of the recruit pitchers
which he had on the Ineligible list for
the regular team have also been sent
to the minors They are "Doc" Hedge
peth and Buck" Barton, both of whom
will be with Bill Coughlin's Scranton
team of the New York State League
the coming season.
There are. of course, several players
on the list who will be taken to Char
lottesville, but who will be retained
only until about the time that the sea-
son opens. Griffith will take all the re-
naming players into camp in March
for the purpose of looking them over.

reputation of being a fence buster. has
probably played his last game in fast
company. Ping has been released to the
San Francisco club of the Pacific Coast
League. San Francisco is the big fell
lows home. and he is sure to make a
good showing in that company, for he
is a slugger against the right kind of
pitching.
] is to be hoped that the New York
club will carry out it's intention of en-
gaging Charley Duke Farrell, the
veteran catcher, in the capacity of coach
for it's pitchers.
Farrell. who was a credit to the sport
many years ago. has not been employed
in base ball for couple of years,
though he is one of the most capable
of the veterans. Farrell played ball in
the day when high salaries were un-
known. hence he did not save a great
deal.
couple Of idle seasons have been a
drain on his savings. and it will not
only be a good move for the Yankees
to have him in charge of developing
the pitchers but it will give the veteran
the employment he is entitled to in base
ball.
