President Carney States His Players

The Boston Nationals, whose kick
ing tactics on the baseball field during
the past season were criticised in some
quarters, will improve its manners
next year If President James e. Gaff-
ney has his way. In a letter mailed
recently to every one Of the Braves
under contract the club executive an
nounces his determination that the
conduct OF the team shall be above
criticism"
Umpire batting is a thing of the
past. L is a defriment to the winning

cry player who ts fined by an umpire
next season must pay his own fine, and
no player under suspension Will receive
salary during that period"
President Gaffney assured the play
ers that he would "back them to the
limit if they were right and the UNI

TO Succeed Himself.
For several years there has been
more or less objection from men prom
inent In the game Of golf in this coun-
try to the form OF organization that
prevails In the United States Golf as
ISOLATION. This objection is based upon
the fact that the allied clubs, which
form the large majority in its member
ship, have no voice in its affairs.
The existing plan of government was
devised at time when golf was prac
ticnlly unknown in the United States.
and IL was then considered necessary
that it's control should be confined to a
few OF the more important and influen-
tial clubs. Over twenty years have
passed since that time, and thorough
knowledge OF the game, together With
an understanding of its spirit and
presidents. has kept pace with its pine
nOmenal growth and widespread pOpu-
larity so that the same necessity for
the old form of government no longer
exists.
