to endeavor to formulate an athletic
policy for major sports.
Several efforts have been made to
adjust athletic matters on a war ba-

Caldwell In EIn Good"
Unless Miller Huggins is kidding
Ray Caldwell, the rebellious finger
OF the Yankees is ''in good" with his
boss. Not only has Caldwell signed
his contract for 1918 but S-iIler Hug
gins announces that he will build his
pitching stsff around the tall fellow
with the fast ball nearly approaching
that OF Walter johnson.
Caldwell, when walking the chalk
line, is easily one OF the most valu-
able pitchers in the game today. He
Is experienced, possesses brains on
the mound and has a world of stun.
He Is always put up against the stiff
fest opposition because Of his own
qualities. Like Doc White, when
with the White SoN, Caldwell Is SO
good a bat/Ian that he is used for
pinch-hitting.
Higgins st. Louis reputation Is
that he manages his players without
harshness, expecting due return. So
far as known, Caldwell has not met
such treatment since joining the
Yanks. 1t has been the Iron fist"
for him. and he has gone astray just
when needed most. 1t is possible
that the newest leader of the Yankees
will succeed where others have
failed. II he does, and Caldwell
meets with any kind of luck, the tall
Yankee should roll up a fne bunch
of victories.
VIII Name President.
Tomorrow comes the first import
ant baseball meeting Of the week, the
International leaguers gathering at
the Hotel Imperial, New York, to de-
eide their 1918 future. 4 president,
succeeding Ed Barrow, must be
named before any work can be done.
Several names have been mentioned.
but just who will undertake the task
of building up the league, now in a
sad condition, will not be known till
tomorrow.
There is small chance that Harry
Harper will be called for army duty.
He is the sole support OF his widowed
mother. ''Moxie's" brother. who assisted
in caring for his mother, has enlisted.
This leaves ''Moxie' 'the only support
cult to see how Uncle Sam can find it
right to take him.
Jim Shaw. the Pittsburgh rabbit
hunter" is married. Under some con-
ditions this might not cause his exemp-
ton. but Shaw is the oldest one OF a
large family which is more or less de-
pendent upon him. That makes it diff
ferenr
George DuMont, who has been placed
in Class l. although he was married
last fall. has at least two brothers Of
working age and able to aid in the
support OF their mother.
