NEW YORK STATE LEAGUE MOGUS HERE FOR LIVELY MEETING TONIGHT
WELIYs s. eoRNER

Welcome to the New York State
leaguers. They are here to-day and
the baseball season is on in Harris
burg. This city has been the scene
of many league meetings. Baseball
history has been made here. Many
of the leaders now in the New York
State League recalled old Tri-State
days. Few baseball organizations in
the United States have not found Har-
risburg good place to meet some
time.
This is Harrisburgs Introduction to
New York State League promoters.
1t is President Farrells second visit
here and he has come to like Harris
burg. The popular president has
proved a successful commander-in-
chief. lie is the pioneer among minor
league leaders. AS secretary of the
National Association of Professional
Baseball Clubs he has under his juris-
diction every minor league organization
in the United States. He is some busy
man.
"Red" Calhoun looks upon Harris
burg as his second home. He is no
stranger in these parts. 'Cal," as he
is known here, is with Wilkes Barre
this season and has bunch of play
ers who may not look strong at this
time to the Baron leader but are likely

President New York State League
New York State League magnates
gathered here to-day for an import
ant session at Hotel Columbus to-
night. The meeting has been called
for consideration of the report of the
schedule committee. Other business is
likely to come up and the session may
be a stormy ore.
The schedule committee will submit
two different allotment of dates. The
season will start May 2 There is
difference of opinion as to the ending.
Some favor September 8, others one
week later. In order to give Utica and
Elmira sufficient time to plan for big
openings at home these teams may
start the season away from home.
Harrisburg is also likely to change
former plans and start the season
away from home playing at Scranton.
New Rule Causes Kicks
Kicks loud and long were heard on
the rule passed at the Syracuse meet
ing compelling managers to find places
on their teams for at least four ball
players who have not played in lea
CUES above Glass b. The purpose of
this rule was to give youngsters q
chance and at the same time cut down
salary expenses.
Managers John C. (Red) Calhoun,
oil WllkeS-BaTTe, Mike " Nelli, 9yTa-
cuse, Bill Coughlin Scranton, and
Chic Hartman, Binghamton, are not
favorable to the rule and would like
to have it revoked. They claim it will
upset their plans to place a cham
pionship team in their respective
towns. Managers from other towns
who are anxious to build up a team
say it will be big help, as youngsters
will fight to make good and furnish a
good class of baseball.
Another question likely to bring
about lively discussion is Sunday
baseball. Four towns want Sunday
games. Reading, Wilkes-Bar and
Scranton are planning to have the
games played outside of city limits 1t
is said that Utica and Syracuse will
be able to arrange games. President
j. II. Farrell is silent on the subject
but is willing to do anything to help
the game if it is assured that base |
ball will be benefited.
President Farrell Arrives Early
President Farrell reached Harris |
burg this morning. He reports en-
couraging prospects in all towns. |
Troubles at Utica and E1mira have
been fixed up and it looks like new
game in these towns. He would not
commit himself on any of the ques-
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1917-03-21

to show something better later on.
Red never would admit to anything
even If he knew he had the goods.
He leaves whole lot to the public.
Rather modest for an old-timer.
Manager Chic Hartman, of the
Binghamton New York State League
team, announces having signed Out
helder Eugene Foley, who has been
starring with the Interborough and
Fordham Lyceum clubs in New York
for the past three years.
Jimmy Jackson, of Philadelphia,
manager of the Elmira club of the
New York State League, is starting
out to build his club for the coming
race and notified the local owners to-
day that he has landed a youngster
named Rousey from the Baltimore
club of the International League. He
is an infielder and said to be very
promising.
Manager Bill Coughlin, of the Scran-
ton team of the New York State
League, is trying to land Joe Lloyd, of
Pottsville, who led the second base
men of the Western League last year.
Lloyd is very anxious to play nearer
his home and has asked the Denver
management to sell or trade him to
some team in the East.

NAVY BASEBALL
STOPS WITH WAR
May Prevent Usual Champion
ship Series While Fleet Is
in Cuban Waters

Philadelphia. March 21.-Germany
has broken up at least one American
baseball championship series for 1917.
ON account of the break with Ger
many the 1917 championship of the
Atlantic fleet of the United States Navy
will have to go undecided, as will the
championships of the various other
navy yards.
simultaneously with the spring trip
of the major leaguers to southern
towns each year some part of the ath
letic allowance of each ship in the
navy has been spent for baseball
equipment, including uniforms, bats,
balls, gloves and other paraphernalia.
Each ships company also has had
its 'tryouts' for the team representing
the ship. Some former Annapolis star
assumed the role of coach and the
men work to get in shape for games.
As the weather warmed the different
ships in the yard would arrange games.
This would end in Il tournament to
. decide the championship of the yard.
This championship once decided, the
conquering heroes look about for new
worlds" There was only one-the
championship of the fleet.
No Plans for Series
This SerieS-ln tournament form
would he played off during the winter
maneuVers at the United States naval
base at Guantanamo, Cuba. The win
. ming team would then be awarded the
Atlantic fleet cham pionship. which car
ried with it Il cup, donated by some
official of the navy or the Navy De-
partment.
we have other things to think
about this year" said a sergeant of
marines at the Philadelphia navy yapd
at League Island yesterday. There
are more serious things to think of
than baseball training nowadays and
we have no time for it,"
Since the break with Germany ii has
been made certain that there will he
no spring practice at the local navy
yard. The men have been rushed to
keep up with the work of preparing
their ships for calls to duty at short
notice and, in addition to this, ships
have been plying in and out of the
yard, STAYING only for indefinite
periods. This has left little time for
organized practice or the organizing
of teams.
The breaking up of the local con-
tingent of the reserve fleet will make
impossible the holding of a tourna-
ment at the Philadelphia navy yard.
If strained relations continue, winter
maneuVers in Cuban waters will be
impossible. This will leave the base
ball supremacy of the Atlantic fleet
up in the air"

FULTON WANTS GUARANTEE

New York. March 21.-Fred Fulton
says he has received offers of matches
from clubs in Milwaukee, Kansas City
and this city, all picking Carl Morris
as his opponent. The tall man from
Minnesota seems to have a strong de-
sire to mingle with the Beefy Morris.
although Frank Moran probably would
be much better drawing card. Now
that Fulton has made such a good
showing in his last two bouts, ne
ought to be a good attraction. but in
stead of accepting percentage he
continues to insist that the promoters
take all the risk of large guarantee.
