NO CHANCE FOR
Third LEAGUE
Committee to Recommend
to Leave Association
Out Of Redistricting.

Louisville, KY, Nov. 13.-There will
be no new league. This fact became
evident late tonight when the COM
mittee on the revision of constitution
decided to recommend to the National
Association that the American Asso-
citation be left out of any redistricting
that may take place. and also when
Joe Tinker announced definitely that
he would side with the Western wheel
of the circuit.
The Hickey faction of the league
won it's fight when President Hickey
appeared before the revision commit
tee, and although no report had been
made tonight it came straight from
the meeting that the members had de-
cided to play a hands-of policy on
the American Association.
Immediately after the news of the
committees action had leaked out,

1t was also learned that Wild Con-

obtained by the Mobile club of the

put on his swapping clothes today
and went out after another pitcher
for the world champions.
Rowland tried to talk trade to
Miller Higgins, OF the Yankees;
Harry Frazee, OF the Red Sox, and
Clark Griffith. OF Washington.
From the Yankees Rowland wanted
Mogridge, a crack left handler; he was
willing to trade for most any pitcher
on the Red Sox staff and he showed
a desire to relieve Clark Griffith of
any of his promising youngsters.
All of his efforts to trade were fruit
