Urges Youngsters Not to Use 1t and
Indicates 1t Will Be
Abolished

NEW YORK, Feb. indicating
that it was only matter of a short time
before the spitball would be abolished
In the ranks of organized baseball. John
X. Tener. president of the National
League. yesterday issued a warning to
all young pitchers, advising them not
to cultivate the use of the spitball.
Young pitchers starting TO play pro-
fessionally will find 1t to their advantage
not to cultivate the use of the spitball." !"
said Mr.. Tener. 'It will also be advan-
tageous to National League players
using this form of delivery to experiment
as much as possible with some other
style of pitching during the coming sea-
SON The spitball is a disgusting. in
sanitary delivery, not likely to endure
more than a few more seasons at the
most. All the members of the National
League rules committee, Dreyfuss
Heydler and myself, are strongly op-
posed to it and favor its abolshment."
Mr.. rener said majority of National
League players still were unsigned, but
asserted that the club owners would re-
main firm in their present position, as
baseball conditions did not warrant the
payment of larger salaries

knows his troubles except the inhab-
itants of that western city on the shores
Of the Pacific.
Ping is highly indignant about some-
thing and from the steady flow of con-
versatlon his listeners are led to believe
that he and Connie Mack are as close
together as a pair of mile posts Ac-
cording to Joe McInerney, who labors
out In Frisco. Mr.. Pizzatti is very much
peeved over his 1918 contract and is
devoting his time In Grating about the
high cost of living as compared with the
low cost of baseball He can't even
convince himself that 1t Is good dope.

big hit on courses on a busy Saturday.
There is too much congestion as the re-
suit of giving the team matches priority,
and the men who do not play on the
team and care nothing about the inter-
club matches have protested vigorously
in the past against them.
Playing the matches on Thursdays
permits almost exclusive use of the six
teen courses, and such players as cannot
play In midweek will still have a chance
10 play on the Saturday before by mu-
tual agreement of the captains. But
there Will not be enough of these Satur-
day matches to interfere with the usual
club tournaments.

With the exception of one delegate
representing a club whose teams in the
past have been made up of young play
ers the clubs represented at the meet
ing were unanimous In predicting big
golf season. All were agreed that war
conditions will result in more of the

OF exercise this year TO keep them in

VETERANS OF THIRTY AND FORTY
WILL HAVE CHANCE OF THEIR
LIVES IN CUP GOLF MATCHES
New Plan Will Permit Them to Lead Their
Clubs in May-Day Battles of Links for
Interclub HOnOrS
By PETER PUTTER

TNHE Golf Association OF Philadelphia
L decided to do away with the inter-
club matches this year largely because
of the absence of so many of the young
golfers Delegates from the various
clubs who supply the sixteen teams that
play in the suburban team interclub
games changed the point-scorng system
for the same reason. IT will be great
year for the veteran players.
Not that all the graybeards and
crippes are going to go out on the
links and do battle for the glory and
honor of their clubs There may be
some white haired players in the tourna-
ment but they will be there because
they have the golfing goods.
Links Camoufiage
But there will be lot of old fellows
in the thirties and the early forties who
will try TO hold down the places formerly
held by the youngsters now In service.
And in order to make IL easier for the
veterans, who. under normal conditions,
would be playing somewhere well down
the list, the delegates wisely changed the
scoring system.
Under last years plan, IL slender,
hard-hitting younster took an older
player into camp by a most comfortable
margin of holes 1t did not look well in
cold type the next day, for the three
points scored against the veteran showed
that the youngster had won by eight
holes TO the good. and any one could
realize what a fearfully one-sided affair
it was. The new plan gives the winner
only IA single point, and whether the
loser admits defeat on the twenty-frst or
the tenth hole no one will know the
difference but the parties of the first
and second parts.
