SOUTHERN EXPECTS
CHANGES IN LEAGUE

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 12.-
When the Southern Association re-
sumes operations on the diamond,
many changes are expected, among
them shifB in the circuit. Many be-
I!eve that the circuit will swing to
the East, dropping its Western cities
and New Orleans. The Crescent City
is likely to be found in an enlarged
Texas league, according to wiseacres
in Dixieland.
For several years the Eastern cities
of Jacksonville, Savannah, Macon,
and Charleston have been improving
as baseball centers. Efforts are al
most sure to be made to have them
included in the reorganized Southern
Association circuit.
AS a part OF the reorganization
when baseball comes back, overhead
expenses must be lowered. Railroad
fares will remain high for some time
after the war ends, and mileage must
be cut out OF the circuit.
Admission prices are expected to
be raised, too, when the association
resumes work, but there should be
no complaint on that score, for Dixie
land is wealthier now than she has
been since before 1861.

TIERNAN WAS GREAT
HITTER FOR GIANTS

Silent Mike Tiernan dead-passed
away in New York hospitali What
memories Of the past come with Tier-
mans name-what echoes OF the
crashing bat and roaring bleaeher-
cheer!
Mike Tiernan. a stoeky, quiet
Irishman, who, perhaps. had as lit
tie to say as any man that ever played
baseball, was originally a pitcher,
but not a specially good one. Con-
verting himself into an outfelder, he
soon became proficient in the garden,
and developed into a tremendous bat
ter-one Of the kind OF hitters an
pitchers fear-the man who can come
up, cool and unruffled, and drive them
with the bases full
Tternan's batting was a big factor
in the Giants success during 1883 and
1889, though II was long afterward-
after he had gone well along IN
years-that he did his mIghtiest
whacking. He stayed with the
Giants in all a dozen seasons. and
when he left the New York club he
gave up the game entirely.
During Tiernan's career he batted
over the 800 mark eight times, as
follows.

FRENCH CHILDREN
WANTCHEWING GUM

Ford NJ Jack, who with Johnny
Evers, tried to teach the French base
ball. returned to America a few days
ago and said the French were more
interested in chewing gum than base
ball
They will have a hard time learn
ing baseball because, unlike the aver
age American. they have never learn
ed to play" he said. They have no
Fairgrounds; and almost no parks ex-
cept private ones, but they certainly
are crazy about chewing gum.
81 visited, all told, about GOO places
in France where American troops are
quartered, and from the moment I
got on the ship / was struck with
the real need for gum over there.
Il hadn't been in France three min
utes when a group Of little boys and
girls crowded around me and shout
ed Chewing gun, sill yous pIait?
at Is a common sight to see the
little boys and girls beg a stick of
gum from our American soldlers-of
course, in 4 nice way; and I have
yet to see a doughboy fail to respond
IL he had a package OF gum or could
get one near by.
at is my impression that two sticks
out Of every five that went over for
our boys were given away to the chill
dren, and despite the fact that the
Americans prize chewing gum most
highly.
Water is a rare article in France;
in places almost priceless, and there
never has been enough gum over
there to take care Of the soldiers.
Frequently / have heard OF gum be-
ing sold at a premium. II has in
many places as standardized a price
as 'Gott Nit Uns' German belt for
souvenirs.
'In the Y. NJ. C. A. huts cartons OF
Adams brands OF gum were emptied
as fast as they were put on display.
'It certainly has been a great bless
ing for the little fellows OF France
to get a stick OF gum, for there are
two things they lack badly. One is
a proper place in which to play, and
the other is sweets"
Jack wore a Y. NJ. @. A. uniform,
and said the reason why the Ameri-
cans were eXcelling in all lines Of
military matters over there was be-
cause every one was an athlete.
He formerly was principal OF a
school in Los Angeles.

Central May Meet

A Central-Western game is in
prospect. The informal elevens
of the schools may meet in the
Central stadium if permission
can be obtained, fer the benefit of

paign.
Central has a tentative game
scheduled with Briarly Hall for
Next Wednesday and if the Briar-
ly is unable to meet the Central
lads Western may be given a
chance to see what it can do
against the Blue and White
team. The game may be played
Friday week.

Mere Man Has His
Last Word

Out in Moose Jaw, where .
newspaper controversy seems to
have been waging over q femi-
nine proposal that men should
give up smoking in war time, q
mere male seems to have set ira
dition at defiance by grabbing
off the last word. "If the war
demands it," he declared through
the Times, Il can. give up my
tobacco just as easily as . Wo-
man can give up her face powder
and look just as we'll" His ul-
timatum seems to have brought
the controversy to an abrupt
close.

WILLARD CAN'T BOX
At ALL THESE DAYS

Jess willard is the lonesomest
champion in the history Of pugilism.
When he refused to box in Madison
Square Garden he explained that he
expected to take part in several con-
tests in Texas.
1t appears that he is not wanted
as a boxer in Texas, the United War
Workers in the Lone Star State re-
fusing to have anything to do with
him. They served notice on him that
If he boxed at all in that State L
would have TO take place in some
military camp before the soldiers.
Whereupon the soldiers declared with
emphasis that they did not desire
Willard's presence in their camps.
From which it would appear that
Willard will have TO return to hts
farm or else join a circus.

Major league clubs would be at
a great disadvantage in attempting
to resume operations next spring"
says Byron Bancroft Johnson, head
Of the AmericaB-League. "The play
ers are widely scattered in the army
and navy service of their country.
and those Immediately available
would not appeal to the patrons OF
the game for reasons too obvious TO
name.
Even with hostiIities ended, #
will take a considerable period OF
time to iron out the worlds affairs.
Consent of the War Department
would have to be obtained for the
resumption OF baseball on a large
scale. and doubt IL this can be OBJ
tanned within a period warrantinK

for games next spring"
John HeydIsr Differs.
John Heydler. acting president of
the National League, differs from
Johnson.
Much will depend upon the num-
Der or quality of players available,
says Heydler, who is generally con-
sidered a wise student Of the game
and not inclined to go off half shot
THE two major leagues could meet
and readily settle that question
Personally 1 believe that by next
spring there will be a general pub
lie demand for resumption OF the
game. The public relinquished It
only because the war demanded that
all should strive together for the
downfall OF the enemy. But now no
enemy exists"
What Hermann Thinks.
Events of the next few weeks will
shape baseball policy for 1912" says
August Hermann.
Everything looks promising now,
but II isn't safe to make any deh-
mite predictions until we see what
happens between the present time
and the date OF the big league meet
ings.
"The December gatherings OF the
major leagues will settle many
things in baseball-the question OF
resuming the sport for the National
League and n general smoothing out
OF rough spots and differences now
existing between the two circuits.
I'm positive that the Washington
authorities look favorably upon the
game, and I think whatever Is done
at the December meeting will meet
the approval of both the officials
and the public"
