FOSTER NOT IN FAVOR
Of EBBETS DRAFTING
Says Plan of the Dodser.' Chief Is
Not Fair to Players.

New York. Jan. za-John 3. Foster
is usually mighty busy individual
but Jawn finds time to pass out an
idea now and then, and his latest
spasm is a new drafting plan.
Foster, let IL be known. is not in
favor Of the plan which Charley Eb-
bets has been trying to put over for
the past three years. He says that
the Ebbets drafting scheme is not fair
to the players and that major league
clubs would soon tire Of it
The Ebbets plan would permit the
eight second division clubs of the two
big leagues first choice Of players
every fall. And after the second
divisioners had their pick the nrst
division clubs would be given consid-
GRAFTON. IL the Ebbets plan was put
over. Foster points out that a player
with more than the average ability
second division club. with little or no
chance TO hook on with a winner. And
this would not enhance the chances
OF the player, to say nothing of put
ting damper on his enthusiasm for
the game as 1t is played in the big
leagues.
A much fairer method. in Fosters
estimation, would be to continue the
draft on the plan of a lottery. but to
Shduee the system sHRntly so tnAt
both first and second division clubs
would have an equal chance to grab
the talent.
Foster says each of the sixteen ma
jor league clubs should send q repre-
sentative to the draft meeting, and
to begin with the two leagues should
decide by lot which should have first
choice. In the event il was the Ma
tional League the names of each OF
the eight clubs would be tossed into
hat. The first club drawn out would
have first choice of a class AA player.
In the event this club did not want
to name a player. the second club
drawn from the hat would inherit the
choice.
After one player had ben drafted
by the National League the American
League clubs would hold their draw
ing and take the second player. Fol-
lowing this plan the Nationals would
take the third player. the American
League the fourth and SO on down the
line. After all the sixteen clubs had
been selected. the draft could go on
down through the leagues OF lower
classification. the teams holding the
same position. or numbers, as they
were drawn from the hat
Foster believes this plan would be
fair to all, and especially fair to the
player. Foster used to do some ball
playing himself. and he has a warm
spot in his chest for the athlete who
wears the spikes and sliding pads.

"CUT" SALARY LIMIT IN
INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE

jamestown, N. Y, Jan. 2.-The annual
meeting of the Interstate League was
held at Olean. The five cities hnlshing
in the circuit last year. Ridgway. Brad
ford, st, Mary's, Johnsonburg and Wells
vile, were represented. President Pat
Dougherty stated that he believed one or
more cities would be added to this list
before the playing season opened.
The directors voted to cut the salary
limit from 81, 200 to $1,000 and play strict
ly class ''D" ball. 1t was the playing OF
faster ball and overstepping of the sal
ary limit which caused the other cities to
go to the wall last year. Olean, Warren
and jamestown may be added to the
circuit The next league meeting will be
held February "a, at Bradford. Pa

FRENCH PROMOTER DIES.
Emil Matrot Killed Mt Front-Ar.
ranged Many Important bouts.

New York. Jan. 22.-Willie Lewis, of
New York, a well known boxer, is in
receipt of a letter from Vienna, the
French boxing promoter. stating that

moter and club owner. At one time he

and Georges Carpenter, staged it in his
own club and prevented Descamps, Car
pentier's manager, from hoodwinkIng the
referee when Klaus sent the French idol
to the floor for a Knockout in the eight
zenith round. Descamps was trying .
signal Carpenter to claim foul, but Mat
rot baked the scheme by getting into the
ring and insisting that the referee right
fully award Klaus the victory
