WORLD
SEEMS DOOMED
Ruling Of Commission SIM
ply Passes Buck to the
Secretary of War. :.

Three weeks Sof the baseball sea
son still remain. and each days de-
scending sun makes 1t seem surer
and 'surer that the year 1918 will
mark a hiatus in the string of
worlds series classics that has run
unbrollen, since the Giants beat the
old AS back in 1905. II
Whatever happened in that. closed
doors meeting of the National Com
mission in Cincinnati. it is pretty
certain that the voice of Ban John
son was not muffled. On, the face
of IT, the announced outcome look
ed like a defeat for the American
League. and it is quite possible
that the National League forced the
junior circuit to its own terms. be-
cause it certainly takes two leagues
to make a worlds series. -.
Suddenly calling halt to the seav
sons program on August 20. would
be manifestly determined to the finan-
cial standing of the fourteen clubs
which do not get into the worlds
series. even under the new system
OF division, which allots certain
percentages of the receipts to the
players of the other first division
CLUBS IN each league.
1t IL very likely. that the final
action was taken with that point
of view. 1t amounts to the abandon
ing OF the worlds series by the
magnates. but instead of calling il
or by their own action. they seem
to have succeeded in passing the
buck to the government by making
the War Department appear to be
the stern dictator which deprives
American fandom Off annual su-
per-classic.
The claims OF organized base
ball may be granted. unless the gov
erument authorities are incenscd at
the very audacity of the thing. The
Secretary OF Wars decision on the
appeal from the work or-fght"
order specifically stated that the
reason the ballplayers were given
an extension Of time lasting to Sep
tember l, was the fact that they
had been advised by Washington
dispatches TO wait for some test
case to fix their status. One month
is long enough for a man to find an
essential job, and participation in a
nonessential pursuit for a week or
two additional is certainly a viola
ton OF the decree.
However. since the American Sc
lective service deals in millions, ii
is possible that the classic nature
of the worlds series may result
in some leniency. since it involves

FEW CHANGES
: IN GRID CODE
intercollegiate Fail to
Meet, But Walter Camp
Suggests New Rulings.

The dawn of football sea son can
be seen on the horizon. With the
dawn of the great collegiate comes
alterations in the game code.
Although no big meeting of the
intercollegiate Association was
held this season some few changes
were made in the playing rules. at
the suggestion of Walter Camp.
There are only a few and can be
remembered with little difficulty.
They are as follows:
First. A substitute may not COM
municate with any member of his
team until after one play has been
made unless he takes the place OF
the man who was giving the sig
mails.
Second The penalty for rough
ing the kicker shall be given from
the point of the down instead of
the spot where the foul occurred.
Third. Illegal interference by a
side defending against a forward
pass will give the ball to the pass
er's side at the point of the foul.
If two fouls are committed on the
fliCted from the spot nearest the
offending sides goal.
Fourth. Running into the kicker.
il there be no rOughinG. shall be
penalizcd FIVE yards instead of
fifteen. This means from the scrim-
mage line.
Fifth. The referee may remit the
penalty for a players failure to
report If he has not communicated
with any member of his team.
Sixth. In case of wet day the
ball may be changed at the be-
ginning of the third period.
Seventh. Any penalty may he de-
clined except that of suspension or
disqualification.
