NATIONAL SPORT TO
CONTINUE, SAYSTENER
Present Season VIII See Passing Of
Young Players for Older Stars.

That the present season will see the
passing OF the younger baseball play
ers in favor of tire older stars. because
OF the war, is the prediction Of John
=. Tener, president Of the National
League, who says.
MY opinion on professional base
ball. de declared. lis that II win con-
tinue as a national sport right on
through the war.
II base my prediction as to the con-
tinued popularity Of the sport upon the
experience of England Their sports
have been encouraged because the
people at home need diversion.
President Wilson and presidents Of
colleges have urged the continuance OF
sports. In war time and in peace time
those left at home need sport. either
that in which they participate or con-
tests they may watch.
"Of course, a large majority Of our
men are of draft age. do not know
how many were included in the first
call. Many of those who registered
will be subject to exemption because
OF dependents, Just as men In other
walks of life.
1T may be that after a time SONS
Of the younger men will have to be
replaced by other players. We have
plenty of men more than 81 years old
who are crack players. Next seasons q
plans are going right ahead on q pre-
war basis"
Mr.. Tener has left his duties Of the
National League at q busy season be-
cause he believes in the imperative
necessity of arousing the country to
food conservation. He Is an Elk and
is aiding in the organization of fra
ternal bodies to cooperate with the
voluntary conservation program Of the
food administration.

Big BASEBALL TRADE
CALLED FLVVER deal
Marsans for Lee Masee Was No
David Harum Stunt by Manager.

New York, July S1.-You very
seldom hear OF two major league
ball clubs trading fiivvers. The willy
magnates are always looking for
the best of 1t in q trade, and many
Of them have old David Harum tied
to q post in pulling slick deals. But
this is just what the Yankees and
st. Louis Browns did when they
negotiated the recent swap which
involved Lee Magee and Armando
Marsans, and time only will tell
which club got the better of the
deal.
As a member Of the Yankees, Lee
Magee outfivvered any fiivver. He
came to the club at q cost of $22,-
500, and froI the time he donned
a Yank tunic until he was traded
for Marsans he wasn't OF much use
to Bill Donovan or the Yankee
owners. As q fielder Lee has few
superiors: as a baserunner he is
still all there, and in addition TO
this he has a quick brain stored
away between his ears. But as a
batter Lee was q mo good" with
the Yanks. Hence. the decision to
trade him.
What Magee was to the Yankees.
Marsans was to the Browns. The
great Cuban outfielder lost his cum
ming at the bat and. like Magee,
proved to be q mighty expensive
bench warmer. Fielder Jones tried
everything he knew to help Mar
sans improve his hitting. to no
avail. 1t was the same old story
that has been told and retold of
Magee, and it seemed that the only
cure for Marsans was to dispose of
him.
So the deal was cooked up and
the two nivvers traded berths. II
didn't appear to be a very profitable
deal for either club, particularly
for st. Louis, as Magee's salary
was all too large to satisfy the
Browns owners. But the chances
are that in the long rUn both clubs
will profit through the trade, for
new surroundings often work won
ders with a ball player, and both
players were highly satisfied to
make the change.
Magee simply figured-after try
ing his best to come through with
the bludgeon-thath he would never
get out of the rut IL he stuck with
the Yankees. There was a jinx on
Lees trail. that's all. Marsans,
who has always wanted to play
with a New York team. was over
Joyed when the deal went through,
and those who know him best pre-
dict that he will make good in a
jiffy with Donovan's tribe.

TALK OF COMMISSION
OF CANADIAN TRACKS

ottawa, July H.-While the present
meetings are scheduled to be the last
In Canada until after the war, ac-
cording to the order-in-council recent
ly passed, members Of Thoroughbred
Horsemen's Association are still
working with a view to having the
time limit extended, in which event
there would be meetings next month
at Connaught Park, Dorval and Blue
Bonnets. Prospects in this direction
were said today to be remote.
1t is intimated on good authority
that the government would sanction
a resumption Of racing next year and
that 1t would be under a commission
composed of capable Ontario and
Quebec citizens. Plans, of course,
may be greatly altered meanwhile.
Il am in favor Of the appointment
Of racing commission" said a prom
inent member Of the Connaught Park

HOOPER'S HOME RUN
UNDOING OF CHICAGO
Boston Red Sox Takes Second
Game Of Series from White Sox.

Boston. July s1.-Jack Barfy's Bos-

American League race today by de-
feating the Chicago White Sox tribe.
5 to 2. In the second game of the
crucial series which Is now being

Harry Hooper's big bat proved the
big factor in the undoing of Eddie
Clcotte's shine ball delivery. as Harry
sent a clout to the center field flag
pole for a home run with two on in
the first inning.
Williams came to the rescue of
Clcotte. and was touched pretty hard
throughout the fray, as two runs in
the fourth and seventh frames were
made against him.
Dutch Leonard allowed the visitors
seven hits and after the first inning,
when two runs were scored against
him. he pitched brilliant ball. The

HARVARD in FAVOR
OF INFORMAL GAMES
Meeting Of National Collegiate As
sociation to Decide Issue Here
Thursday.

Since the declaration OF war last
spring athletics In all its branches
has been in a condition Of chaos.
Yale. Harvard. Princeton ana Cor
nell immediately called on all COM
petition. and several minor institu-
tons followed their lead. Few Of the
big track meets were held last spring
and baseball schedules generally were
considerably broken up by cancella-
tions. Particularly was this true in
the South, many OF the institutions
below the Mason-Dixon line having
nearly all their games listed with
Northern teams which called OF their
Southern trips. While there has been
quite recovery from the hysteria
which seemed to affect the colleges
in the first days OF the war, even
now an uncertainty exists which is
decidedly unwholesome.
1t is to alleviate present conditions
and to bring about some definite and
concentrated stand by the colleges
that the meeting for Thursday morn
ing has been called for at the New
willard Hotel. Believing that some
action should be taken by the Ma
tional Collegiate Association with the
idea OF clearing the situation, Mai.
Palmer e. Pierce, president of that
body, sent out a QUESTIONABLE as to
the adyisabifity Of calling a general
meeting. 1t seemed to be the opinion.
though, that the executive committee
ought to get together and make the
decision after a conference with in
vited representatives from all the col
leges sufficiently interested to send
them. This will give an even broader
expression OF opinion than that il
only the members Of the association
were present.
Just now 1t appears that the recon-
mendation Of the body will be to
continue athletics, with some few
curtailments or notifications to suit
particular cases. Yale, Harvard and
Princeton have made known that they
will not have teams. Harvard has
announced it will put on the field
an indendent eleven to play in
formal games with some of the New
England colleges. Some talk has gone
the rounds at Yale and Princeton Of
football for freshmen, but no def
mite course leading to that end has
been taken at either institution. Two
or three minor colleges have an
nounced a discontinuance of athletics,
but practically all stand united in a
determination to carry out their
usual programs.

COLLINS MUST HIT OR

Former Mackman Is Not What He

yEsTERDAY's RESULTS.
YESTERDAYS RESULTS.

Eddie Collins undoubtedly is feeling

slow starter, he is tagging more than
ever this season in finding the pitch.
ing. His average is lower now than
Is his custom at this time of the year.
Collins is fielding just as brilliantly,
thinking Just as rapidly and Is not
slowing perceptibly in his baserun-
ming. His appearances on first base,
however. have been too few to allow
much base-stealing or run-scoring.
Even when Collins was with tho
Mack machine and enjoying the
height Of his ability 1t always re-
quired a few weeks or more than a
month for him to reach the zenith of
his batting stride. Usually the end
OF a season found him disputing bat
ting premiership with Ty Cobb and
Joe Jackson, although his average
never reached the topnotchers set by
those batting stars.
If Collins were to. swing into his
old-time batting form at this stage
Of the race his assistance would be
sufficient in itself, it is believed by
most critics, to carry the Sox to a
championship. And II he should sud-
denly receive the assistance Of Joe
Jackson's old-time Cleveland form,
the American League race probably
would be over Just about as suddenly.
Strangely neither Jackson nor Col
Inns has been able to hit the seasons
opening with batting strength since
becoming members Of the White Sox.
Jackson's average never was so low
as it is now, and he seems totally in
capable of throwing OF the slump.
The drop of this pair in batting is
one thing the dope overlooked in
picking the White Sox as favorites
in the johnson scramble. They are
the players who make the Sox or
wreck them. Even with their batting
low their efforts are sufficient in
spiration to other members OF the
team to count a great deal

"On DOPE" Willard said, Mcmahon

he beat Morris the other night, and
Morris beat Fulton. However, I think
Fulton looks the most logical selection
for hackers to take up. A bout at
