Manager Chic Hartman
Builds Hopes on Barnhardt

Binghamton, N. Y, Dec. 13. = If
Barney" Barnhardt does not prove to
be one of the State League twirling
sensations of 1917, Manager Chic
Hartman will be disappointed. Chic
is counting on Barnhardt to repeat his
winning record of early in 1916 and to
continue his victorious march through
the entire period of play. The long,
lean, angular Pennsylvania boy was
nothing less than Bruin for John C.
Calhoun and really kept the Bing team
out in front with plenty to spare for
many weeks. Toward the close of the
seasons milling the "side-arm" flippist
became as careless as other Bings, but
his work was always clean-cut and
uniformly good. Hartman has several
surprises for fandom. He is out to
show results from the start, even
though several untried ones are on
the roster.
MURPHY, Konnick. Irving and Joe
Pepe are E. and j. employees and ex-
pect to have a good winter. Pepe
should be the State Leagues most ac-
complished shortstopper next season,
while Murphy, Konnick and Irving are
always good and ready to get into the
going at short notice. Konnick eX-
poets to be first string catcher for
Mike ONeilPs Syracuse team next sea-
son. John G.. Calhoun has said nary a
word about his 1917 Barons.

HUMMELSTOWN
TAKE UP TENER PLANS

New York, Dec. 13.-When the mag
mates of the National League entered
the second day of their annual de-
liberations here to-day one of the
topics was the change in the world
series rules advocated by President
Tener in his annual report. Mr.. Tener
favors setting aside part of the play
ers' percentage for distribution among
the players of other clubs not partici-
pating in the series. These shares are
to be apportioned, according to the
suggestion, on the relative standing of
the clubs in their respective pennant
races. Among other propositions to
be considered is measure which
would prevent any club selling or trad
ing a player after August l unless
every club in the league had granted
waivers on him. 1t is expected that
it will be adopted as a league rule.

ONLY ONE TRADE
FOR NATIONALS
Abolish Disability List at An
nual Meeting; No Increase
For Player Limit

New York, Dec. 13. - Trades were
few at yesterdays meeting of Ma
tional League magnates. The only
certain transaction was the choice of
Fred Mitchell to lead the Cubs
Mitchell admitted that the finger of
rumor was right when it pointed to
him as the next Cub tactician He
said that the thing was all settled ex-
cept the agreement between the Bos-
ton and Chicago clubs, by which his
services were to be transferred half
way across the United States map. The
weary magnates cast aside care and
united in banquet to President Eb-
bets, of the Brooklyn club last night
The magnates convened at 8 and
remained closeted until after o'clock.
Previous to the league meeting the
board of directors held sway.
Committee reports and the hearing
or TWO delegations consumed the bulk
of the session. The main bits of legis-
lation accomplished were the abolition
of the disability list" and the increase
of the player limit from 81 to 22, to-
gether with lengthening of the early
season try-out period during which
the clubs select their regular players
for the season. Last Springs bad
weather, making the early weeks al
most useless for try-out purposes,
brought about the change.
Must Reduce Limit
Managers next season will have un-
til May Is, instead of May l, to re-
duce their list to the statutory %. Pre-
Vious to that date, and after August
81, each club may carry as many as
35 players.
The New York Club wanted the
limit raised from 21 to 25, but when
It came to a vote. the Chicago clubs
ballot was the only one that sided
with the Giants proposition. A two
thirds vote was necessary for adoption
and the Brooklyn clubs motion for
22, following immediately, went
through unanimously.
Abuses of the disability list last sea-
son especially by the Boston club
caused it's death. At times last sea-
son, 1t was asserted, there were as
many as 2S players on the Boston
bench in midsummer, seven of them
disabled" so that they could only
take helding practice, batting practice
and make noises derogatory to the
umpires and opposing players.
The board of directors at its meet
ing awarded the pennant to Brook
lyn. They mentioned nothing about
the suggested scoring of an assist"
to the Giants. In fact, the "McGraw
incident" was talked about only in
the corridors. No magnate would ad-
NIT that he even thought of it while
the meeting was in progress
President Tener's report advised
changes in the worlds series rules, es-
pecially that some provision should be
made for setting aside some portion
of the receipts for players of clubs not
participating in the series.

CLEGG is STILL CHAMPION

II. Clegg, holder of the Harrisburg
Sportsmen's Cup. emblematic of the

yesterday successfully defended his
title in a challenge match with Charles

Clegg, "a; Eilber, %.
Clegg gave wonderful exhibition
of craftsmanship with the double
barreled scatter shotgun. He grassed

Eilbert's failure to larfd his birds in
the seventh and twentieth shots prov
ed his undoing.

Hughie Likes Young Ehmke ;
Expects Record Season

Detroit, Mich, Dec. 13.-Hugh Jen-
nings has high hopes for the 1917 sea-
son and looks for the Tigers to fight it
all the way to a pennant. Detroit is
hungry for the flag and Jennings wants
to drive his men to the front Two
newcomers are expected to add
strength to the club, Third Sacker
Jones and Pitcher Couch, from the
Coast
But the recruit hurler that looks
best to both Jennings and President
Navin is Howard Ehmke, purchased
from the Syracuse club, New York
State League. Ehmke showed his
worth with the Tigers in the crucial
series against the Red Sox at the close
of the season. He is expected to take
his regular turn next season.
