days of the present session.
1t is said 10 be the governors

party measure and force it through

inent business and professional men
from every large city in the state

in an effort TO save the game. but he
has turned a deaf ear 10 all

PECKINPAUGH MODEST
Iank ShOrtstOp is Good Player But
Gets No Publicity.

Roger Peckingpaugh of the Yam
KEGS. is one OF the best shOrtstops in
the big leagues. yet because Of a
retiring nature Roger doesn't get as
much publicity as some of the more
forward players who are always
willing TO pose for the photographers
and "gush' for the newspapers.
Instead Of playing 10 press.
Peck goes about the business OF
earning his salary from the Yankees
in a quiet, determined way and
this year. despite his modest nature,
he is getting into print every day or
so because of the lusty manner in
which he has been hammering the
ball.
As hitter Peckinpaugh has
often been ranked among the weak
ones But right of the reel this
year he broke into the lime by bust
ing up two ball games at the Polo
grounds. and since that time he has
been showing better form with the
stick than ever before.
"Wallie" Pipp. who is always eX-
pected 10 hammer the ball. says ne
would like 10 be classed as a weak
hitter in the spring He has "A
hunch that. like Peckinpaugh. ne
would increase his hitting and get
the credit lor pulling a surprise.

To be Dropped

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, May -
What steps are to be taken 20 rem
edy present conditions or whether
the American association is to be
discontinued in its playing season
will be decided at a meeting called
late this week. Thomas j. Hickey,
president of the league said here
Sunday night.
Mr.. Hickey has been comforting
here with NJ. +. CantillOn, president
of the local club, and John W. Nor
ton. head of the ST Paul team re-
garding the meeting
The measure now before congress
which would impose a tax of ten
per cent on the gross receipts Of
baseball. poor attendance because OF
the war. bad weather and the fact
that thousands of fans will soon be
called into military service, has the
club owners greatly worried" de-
clares Mr.. Hickey
The league has lost no less than
s. 900 a day for the last ten days,
and certain magnates may decide TO
vote for a discontinuance of the
playing season"
Remedies suggested are the cur
tailment of the player limit from Il
10 10 10 Ia and the reduction or
salaries, or both he said.
Mr. Hickey left tonight for Chi

RETURN To BIG
NINE IMPORTANT
MiChigan'S Reentry Into Com
petition Means Much to
Conference Football.
BY Jack NeioCk.

NEW YORK. May Michigan
back in the western conference"
IL means something TO the foot
ball fans Of the great middle west.
And il means something 10 the Big
Nine. for the Ann Arbor school is
one Of the biggest and strongest
universities in the country. and its
long absence from conference ranks
has been a regrettable thing.
The Wolverines left the Big Nine
i'm 1905. They severed diplomatic
relations because they did not relish
certain training restrictions that
we're put into practice. Cne of these
was the abolition of training tables.
But Michigan has missed the Big
Nine just as much as the conference
has missed Michigan, and the de-
cision of the board of regents TO
apply for admission came as
pleasant surprise. That the applica-
ton will be voted on favOrably by
the board of governors Of the big
nine is practically assured, and by
1918. at the latest. the Wolverine
gridiron warriors will match their
strength with old-time western
rivals once more, after a period of
II years.
There are two schools in the west
which have looked with longing
eyes toward a chance TO horn into
the Big Nine Nebraska and Notre
Dame are both big. thriving univer-
sites. that go in strong for ath-
letics. They turn out some of the
greatest football elevens that the
west produces, and they are big
enough 10 deserve recognition. But
the entry of Michigan will mean
that these two schools must stay out
i'm the cold. because with the VOL
verines included the conference VIII
be made up of 10 universities, and
unless one or two of the smaller
schools should drop out the Corn
huskers and the "Fightin' Irish will
have no chance of getting a mem
bership.
Football fans in the Mississippi
valley recalled the great gridiron
battles Of Il and Il years ago with
the announcement of Michigan's re-
turn. The Wolverines used TO be
strong rivals of Chicago. Wisconsin
and Minnesota, and Michigan elevens
have figured in some of the most
memorable games the west has ever
witnessed.
Michigans return 10 the confer
ence will mean that her custom of
scheduling eastern teams will be
curtailed greatly. The Wolverines,
however. will probably play one
eastern elecent each season.

International News Service.
NEW YORK. May Many of
The baseball sharps may have some
retracting TO do by the time another
two weeks roll by. The positions of
some Of the western clubs in the
two big leagues today indicated that
1917 is destined 10 be a season of
many surprises. for in both leagues
the work of clubs which We're con-
sidered weak before the season
opened is proving a revelation.
The first intersectionaI series.
which start this week. will throw
more light on the question of the
class in eastern and western di-
visions Of the majors The National
league clubs of the west will make
their first eastern invasion. while
the four eastern clubs in the Amer
lean league will travel west.
The work Of the first place Car
dinals against the Giants. Phillies
and Braves will be watched with in
terest. The Cards are the biggest
surprise OF the season in either
league and although many critics
are inclined 10 believe they are play T.
ing above their speed the point re-
mains 10 be proven. The driving
power Of the Cincinnati Reds and
the improved showing of the Cubs
under Fred Mitchell. are other fea-
lures in the old league.
The in and out playing OF the
White SOx indicates that they may
have been greatly overrated. The
ST Louis Browns and Cleveland In
dams are playing better baseball If
the drive Of the Browns can be
maintained st. Louis may be found
with two first place clubs before
another week rolls around. The
chances OF the Browns depend on
what the Red Sox can do in the
west.
