mined in future discussions between the
 two organizations"
 New York, November 1.-President
 John K. Tener of the National league
 was out of the city today and no one Ill authority at headquarters here would eX- pres an opinion regarding the probable meaning of Ban Johnsons remarks re-
 garding the formation of the national commission. From other baseball sources,
 however, 1t was learned that the dissat-
 is faction of the American league execu-
 tive over the preponderance Of Natlonai league representatives upon the national
 commission was nothing new, but that
 Johnson had not up to the present tune shown any indication of adopting radi-
 cal measures to change the balance CT
 power
 It was stated that a year ago Johnson
 announced that he would not vote for the reelection of Garry Hermann as chairman of the commission and that the annual meeting was postponed from time
 to time, but when the commission finally conferred Hermann was continued for another term.
 The chairman of the national commis- sion is elected annually by the votes of the two major league presidents, which means thta both Johnson and Tener
 must agree upon the third member since a difference of opinion would result in deadlock
 Several plans have been suggested fol changing the national commission. Ons called for a tribunal of three prominent men in no way conencted with baseball Aonther would retain the present maior league presidents. and third neutral member, while still a third scheme called for five members, two to represent the big leagues, two nor the minor lagues and the Players Fraternity, respectively. while the fifth member would be inde- pendent of baseball connections.

 MT. Lannin has owned the team three years and during that time the Red Sox have won two world series. He acquired possession in 1914 when the club finished second in the Amer ican league race. In 1915 the club fin ished first and defeated the Brook lyn club in the world series.
 After announcing the sale MT. Lan- min said he intended to enter the ho- tel business in this city. where he al- ready has large real estate. holdings. He also is owner of hotel in Gar den City, l.. l.. and has a controlling interest in the Buffalo team of the In- ternational league.

Hook Brunette. the blonde fullback of the Alabama machine, is one of the most valuable men on the eleven. Hook is fine line plunger aside from being an excellent man to run interference for other members of the team on end runs. Alabama followers are depending on Hook to test the Sewanee line. He hasn't failed to deliver yet, and he hardly will against an enemy like Sewanee.

Vandy and Tech, two of the fore most contenders for the title, have easy games for Saturday. The Commodores meet Rose Polytechnic institute while the Yellow Jackets meet Tulane. The race for the championship will, however. be narrowed down considerably fol- lowing Saturdays contests.
 On the following Saturday, how ever. battles of vital importance will be staged over the entire southland. Birmingham. for the first Saturday since the season started. will not be provided with gridiron amusement. In Atlanta, Alabama battles against Tech. In Knoxville, Vandy is meeting the formidable Tennessee aggregation. Auburn journeys down to Jack sonville to meet the University of Florida game. Sewanee and Chat tanooga meet in Chattanooga while Georgia has an easy opponent in Furman.
 As was predicted in these col umns early in September, long before the teams began to clash, the fight for the championship rested between Vandv and Tech with Auburn third and Sewanee the dark horse. Auburn may bet ter that position. but it is hardly probable. It looks more like Vandy every day. The Commodores have a great machine. one of the best ever turned out to represent the Gold and Black. Tech is also strong. while Auburn has the pos sibility of being a winner Since Vandy and Tech do not meet, if the claim is narrowed to them com parative scores will be the lone basis which football critics will have to select their champion"

from their hunks at the sound Of the
fire alarm and extinguished small
