1860, indicates the attitude toward I'M

futile had been caught kissing each
other. Jacob tried to throw the blame
on Sarah, saying he thought she had

DODGERS May Make Change.

With the mid season past. and some
of the clubs of the Central association
not going in championship form, shake
ups in arrangements is the order of
the cay in several cities. With the
resignation Of Jim Drohan at Clin-
ton, the release of Jack" Herbert at
Cedar Rapids, and the suspension of
Eddie" Brennan at Waterloo, three
new pilots are likely over the circuit.
Fort Dodge, discouraged by the poor
showing of Manager furgeon. also
threatens change, and it is announced
that an effort has been>Imade to secure
Babe" Towne. formerly of the Chicago
White Sox, and later Western league
manager to pilot the Dodgers thru the
last half of the season.
It is generally conceded in the va
rious cities of the association that but
three clubs Muscatine, Burlington
and Marshalltown-are now in the
fight for the pennant. and the second
division clubs will make a heroic effort
to strengthen their forces for the clos
ing months of the championship race.

BRENNAN is SUSPENDED.

George Zackert, Veteran Pitcher. in
Temporary Charge of Waterloo Team.
Manager Eddie" Brennan, of the
Waterloo Shamrocks, who succeeded
DR.. Jay Andrews as pilot of the Water
loo club late last season, yesterday was
placed under suspension by the Water
loo club directors, and George lack
ert, veteran pitcher named as his tenn
porary successor.
The Waterloo manager has been sus-
pended by the club officials owing to
his closing the deal for the sale of
Outfielder Collins to Cedar Rapids. in
exchange for players Jack and Kuhn.
contrary to the orders of the club
directors.
Collins was to have become man.
ager of the Dummies. replacing Jack
Herbert, but at the last moment the
Waterloo club placed Collins under
suspension. preventing him from join
ing the Cedar Rapids club. Should
Collins disregard the suspension order
and participate in games at Cedar
Rapids. the Waterloo mana cement de-
clares all games won by the Dummies
with Collins III the line UP will be pro-
tested.
Reports from Cedar Rapids today in
dictate that the controversy over Col
Inns has been settled, it being found
that Collins contract provided that he
could secure his release in case he
could better his position. by giving the
Waterloo club five days notice. Water
loo. it is said, acquiesced, and Collins
is now in charge of the Bunny aggre-
cation. Herbert was dropped from the
rolls Wednesday.
Kuhn and Jack left yesterday for
Burlington to join the Waterloo club,
and may participate in the game there
today.
During the heat Of the controversy
the contending clubs appealed to Pres
dent Justice. who ruled that Waterloo
had no recourse in the matter and
could not suspend Collins. He stated
in letter to the Waterloo manage
ment that the release Of Brennanlawas
all that Waterloo could legally demand
IN the situation presented. The trans
fer of players. he decared> was legal.
Waterloo's objection to the trade was
that Belden Hill was transferring TO
Waterloo two players who were slated

secured. and therefore Waterloo waA
getting nothing for one of the best
players in the league.
Collins opened the season with
Cedar Rapids but was released to
Waterloo by Manager. Herbert. He was
formerly a member of the Brooklyn
Nationals.
The reason for the release of Her
bert at Cedar Rapids is said 20 be the
poor showing Of the CLUB this year and
the release of men VINO have made
good elsewhere.
