BASEBALL PLAYERS FINED.
Many Penalties Inflicted for Playing
in Exhibition Games.

Fines by the wholesale were inflicted
by the national baseball commission
at Cincinnati, O., yesterday on major
league ball players, who have taken
part in various exhibition games fol
lowing the close of the season of 1916.
Fifty-one players from Il of the 16
major league teams were fined amounts
ranging from $25 to 800. However,
the commission suspended the fines on
IS players, allowing only Is fines to
stand. The men who must pay are:
Players Henriksen, Janvrin, Shorten.
Hoblitzel, Lewis, McNallv, Scott, Cady
Ruth and Barry of the world S cham,
pion Boston American league team
Players Cobb and Young of the De.
troit Americans, and Player Davis of
the Philadelphia Americans. All of
these were fined 800 except Cobb,
who must pay $50.
The fines on the Boston Americans
came as the result of a game played
at New Haven, Conn, in violation of
the rule against members of the
world s champions playing in games
after the close of the season. Barry
did not play but managed the team
that did play.

NEW YORK, Dee. 9.-Four big rail

The strlctest embargOeS are on the Erie
and Pennsylvania roads. These include
live stock, shipments from connecting lines
and all kinds of food except foodstutfs
which require cold storage
! The Wabash embargo applies only to
grain, while the New York Central's en-
/ barge is against all foodstuffs except per.
! ishabes and live stock.
! The Eastern limits beyond which the
roads will not carry the stuffs they have
put the embargoes against are as follows:
/ The Pennsylvania, Pittsburg; the Erie
Marion, Ohio: the Wabash, Detroit and
the New York Central, Buffalo.
| The purpose of the embargoeS is to clear
the tracks and freight terminals all along
the lines Railroad officials say Western
shippers have been sending goods for ship
mcnt to Europe without having arranged

ocean, the result has been that thousands

Getting the Parents Interested

The Boston school committee has
issued a new kind Of report-not the
kind that is made up of dry and more
or less interesting statistics, but the
kind that makes direst appeal to
the avarage parent. The Boston COM
mittee makes its report interesting
and full of color. 1t tells the story OF
the Boston schools, not in mere fig
ures, but as a chapter in city develop
ment in particular and human devel-
opment in general.
But the unique part of the Boston
report is the assumption that parents
can be led to take more than pass
ing interest in the school work OF
their children. Here is what the COM
mittee urges upon parents:
To talk with your children about
their schools.
To visit the schools yourself.
To keep your childnen in school as
long as possible.
To teach your children respect for
the laws and the rights of others.
To read this report.
To recognize the interest of the
school committee in the pupils.
TO do your part in helping and sup
porting the schools.
That is good philosophy to apply to
any set of schools in the land. 1t
should not be said that the parents
who take an active interest in schools,
outside of paying taxes and sending
their chirdren, are in ridiculously
small minority. Andy Adams, in one
of his celebrated Western books.
makes the point that the father Is
mighty particular about the black
smith who shoes his horses, but he
doesn't even know the name of the
individual who is teaching his child
in school.
Perhaps the general apathy has
been chargeable in part t" school
committees. A few hearty aud speci-
fic Invitations, such rs the Boston
school committee sends forth to par
ents, might result i'll more of the
home cooperation which the public
schools need SO much.
