Shorty" Smith Three Years at
University Before Discovered.

PHILADELPHIA, December A.
Shorty Smith. Penn quarterback this
year. was a student at the university
for three years before anybody dis
covered he could play foot ball.
Smith ambled out on Franklin Field
one day this fall with no intention
of donning moleskins. but when he
saw how green the material was he
enrolled as a candidate. Even then
the coaches paid slight attention to
him. his weight-126 pounds-being a
terrific handicap to overcome. How
ever Smith soon proved that he knew
foot ball and after he had modestly
related how he played at Georgetown
the coaches gave him q chance in the
first Swarthmore game. The little lad

Want A JOINT MEETING
National Leaguers Anxious to
Learn President Johnson's Plans
for Coming Season.

NEW YORK, December 4.-The Ma
tional League has asked the Ameri-
can League to take part in a joint
meeting of the two organizations in
this city next week for the purpose
of bringing about more harmonious
conditions between the major base
ball bodies.
The National League will meet here
next Tuesday and the American
League plans to meet in Chicago on
Wednesday or Thursday. If Ban
johnson accepts the invitation for
the Joint conference it probably will
be held here December 13.
There are three important questions
which the two leagues will endeavor
to agree on. They are new chairman
for the national commission. new
schedule for next season and the
player limit.
According to the plans Of several
club owners. the season will be cut
1 and closing on September 80. 1t is
also believed that the two major
organizations will limit the players
to eighteen for each club.
There are SO many of the club own
ers of both leagues anxious to see
tional commission that big shake
up seems certain. The National
League is anxious to find out where
Ban Johnson stands on the question
Of base ball reforms.
Johnson, last season. openly violated
the national agreement by refusing
to abide by the decision of the ma
tional commission and as this entirely
destroyed the authority which the
commission has exercised in the past,
what regard Johnson is going to have
for the national agreement in the fu-
ture.
The one thing which the club
owners in both leagues want, how
ever, is absolute harmony before
plans are made for the coming season.
They realize that the game will suf-
fer unless there is an end to all the
petty wrangling that marred the
sport last season.
Since William Howard Taft made it
plain he would not consider a place
on the national commission several
candidates have been suggested.
Among these are Judge Kenesaw
Mountain Lands of Chicago and
John Toole of New York.
Numerous candidates also have been
mentioned for the presidency of the
National League. Toele is among
those suggested for this place The
names of Secretary-Treasure John A.
Heydler, Magistrate Francis x. Nc
Quade of this city and Robert Brown
Of Louisville have been suggested for
the presidency.
johnson gives no indication yet that
he will accept the suggestion of the
National League for a joint meeting.
II he is unwilling to cali his clubown-
ers for conference here the National
% Sc
to meet in some city in the middle
west.
