BASEBALL RULERS
 TO COPPER SOOt.

The annual meeting of the National Commission in Cincinnati on January 7 is likely to be one of the most inn portant baseball conferences of the present winter. Indeed, the routine business of the triumvirate is but sec ondRry in importance.
 Major league club owners, who had intended to mail contracts to players the first of the year, will delay for a week or ten days so that definite policy toward retrenchment may be determined. There were a few mat ters of prime importance which the delegates did not find time to digest at the joint meeting in Chicago last week. These were referred to com mittees, which were instructed to re- port to the several major employers The national commission meeting af- fOrds a fine opportunity for these committees and those interested in their action to get together for a final thrashing out of the problems.
 The probable effect of the war on the playing strength of the two major leagues Is one of the last worries of the operators. If all the young stars subject to draft should be taken and
 
 all the others of military age should enlist there would still be material available for the shaping of 16 clubs In such a contingency the minor lea gues would be the first forced out, and their remnants could keep the major spirit aglow indefinitely. The elimi nation of high salaried men would ob viate the salary slashing planned. 1 One of the real worries of\organiz
 ed baseball at present is the hanging fire suit of the Federal league. Tht

GEORGIA TECH HAS
 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE FOR NEXT SEASON

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 27-Confident of again having great football team next season the Georgia Institute of Technology has mapped out an ann bilious schedule of games. Instead of meeting Pennsylvania in the early port of the year, as was the case last season when Tech showed under the Quakers by Al to o, on almost the first football Saturday of the season, the two teams will meet Nov. 16 next fall. The game will be played in Philadelphia, as Penn came South this fall.
 Georgia Tech is negotiating for a game with one of the Western Con- ference teams to be played Nov. 23. Several of the leading elevens have ben requested for 8 contest, but only Indiana University seems anicable to such an arrangement. If this game is played it will be decided at Indian apolis, which gives Tech two long trips away from home. Heretofore there has been a Faculty rule against allowing the team to make two trips away from Atlanta, but the national prominence gained by the players l during the last season has brought about a change of heart. Henceforth 1t is the aim of the football manager to arrange. two games each year, one with leading Eastern eleven and one from the West, in which an agree. ment can be had that home-and. home game will be played in success i've seasons.
 There are couple of dates sti1 uncertain on the schedule. One o, these is Oct. 19, when it is proposed to meet either North Carolina 0, Vanderbilt. The tentative schedul follows:
 Sept. 28, Lake Forest, at Atlanta Oct. 5, Clamson, at Atlanta; Oct. 12 Davidson, at Atlanta. Oct. 19, open Oct. 26, Tulane, at Atlanta; Nov. Virginia F. L., at Atlanta; Nov. North Carolina A. and E., at Atlanta Nov. 16, Penn, at Philadelphia; Nov
