Big Leagues Adopt Shorter
Schedule for 1919 Season

The National and American leagues
will play a schedule OF 140 games
next season. opening on April 20 and
closing as rear October 1 as will be
possible. The length of the season
and the opening date were among
several matters settled here on Sun
day by John Heydler and Ban john
son. presidents OF the two major
leagues.
At the recent American League
meeting in Chicago a tentative OPEN
ing date of May 1 was suggested.
This, however, was q little later than
most of the National League clubs
cared to start. Besides. Johnson's
original idea for a shorter schedule
was to reduce the number of double
headers. 1t had been realized for
some time that the double header
had become a real evil in the sport,
BY starting on April % 1t will be
possible to leave a number of open
dates in the schedule which might be
utilized to play off postponed games.
An April 20 opening will permit the
old holiday arrangement to continue
next season. It Is preferable to have
the Eastern and Western clubs play
teams of their own sections on the
! three big holidays-Decoration Day,
Fourth of July and Labor Day.

ment to the drinker, and if neces-
sary death to the seller, or maker,
or both, as traitors, and the nation

its inefficiency, startled at the in

the burdensomeness of the liquor

Huns Continue To
Retreat Before Allies
Menace To The Channel Ports Has
Been Almost Overcome--AIIied
Line Moving Forward.

All along the western front Ger
mans continue to give ground be-
fore the Entente Allies. The daily
trend of events indicate the insecu-
rity of the German lines and the in
ability of the German high COM
mand to hold back the aggressors.
Where two months ago great sa-
lients projected into the Allied
front, these have either been fatten-
ed or are in the process of being
blotted out, and in some instances
the Allies themselves have driven
in wedges that seriously menace the
enemy
With the Marne and Picardy Sec
tors now virtually all reclaimed, the
wings of the present Allied offensive
are moving in a manner that bodies
i'll to the Germans. In the north the
wing on the Lys salient, southwest
of Ypres, gradually is bending un-
der voluntary retirement and the
pressure of Field Marshal Haig's
forces.
Following the fall of KENNEL, the
Allied line has been moved further
forward, until it now rests almost
upon the Estaires-La-Basses road,
less than seven miles southwest of
Armentieres. By the wiping out of
this salient the menace to the chan
mel ports has been overcome.
