BASEBALL FOR
1918 ON TRIAL
lRv Associated Press.l

New York, Dec. l0.-The first of a
series of baseball meetings which will
have an important bearing on the
sport next year, will be held in this
league magnates assemble in annual
conference, The chief problem that
confronts the club owners is the ad-
visibility of continuing the league
during the season of 1918.
Opinion appears to be divided upon
this point among those financially
interested, and the outcome Of the
conference cannot be predicted. The
more conservative among the owners
and officers of the league advocate a
waiting policy, in order that the
league may take advantage of any ia
Vorable developments during the Win
ter and early spring, rather than a
definite decision at this time.
1t is probable that plans will be
made for a tentative schedule which
may call for a shorter season, and
other arrangements made for curtall-
ing expenses, in case 1t is decided to
place the league affairs in condition
for play next summer.
Attitude OF Majors Factor.
The attitude of the major leagues
will be an important factor In thns
decision. Several big circuit magnates
are understood to favor the continue
ton of the International league. One
has put himself on record as APPROX
ing such action, even though 1t be
necessary to change to some extent
the present list of cities represented.
Even such q movement involving the
shifting Of franchises, has been IN
formally discussed for some time.
1t is doubtful, on the other hand,
whether the merger of several Inter
national league and American assoeia-
tion clubs for the purpose OF forming
third so-called major league viii
even be- mentioned at the meeting.
Sentiment in favor OF this move ap-
pears to have lost ground, and there
is little likelihood that the project
will be revived at this time.
National Owners Meet Tuesday.
New York, Dec. 10.-Club owners,
managers and others interested in
baseball arrived here today for con-
ferences preliminary to the annual
meeting of the National league Tues
day. Proposal to abandon the Gus
tomary spring training trips during
the war was one of many problems to
be considered. Reduction OF the player
limit was another subject under con-
sideration.
Branch Hickey, president of the. st.
Louis club, who arrived here Sunday,
Is said to be conducting negotiations
to sign Jack Hendryx, of the Indian
apoIis club as manager OF the Cardt-
mails for the coming season.
