her experiences as Red Cross worker

the wounded to the base hospitals. 1t

pESkY GHOST OF
FEDERAL LEAGUE
BURIED At LAST
Sagacious Ban Johnson Cooks
Little Pill, Which, With Aid
of Bank Book Balm,
Settles, Dispute.
BY JACK VEIoCK.

New York, March 3.-The pesky
ghost Of the Federal league has been
laid low at last.
After much haggling, many confer
ences and lot of diplomatic dealing
the attorneys for Organized Base Ball
and the disappointed angels of the
defunct Fed circuit finally got to-
gether and patched up the agreement
whereby three former Federal league
! club owners are to receive bank book
balm.
Ban Johnson, shrewd and sagacious.
with his colleagues on the National
commission, helped cook up the little
pill that was to put the ghost of the
Feds to sleep for good and all, and it
was administered at National league
headquarters here in mid February.
Just what agreement was reached
regarding the payment of installmcnts
on $550000 to the Brooklyn, Newark
and Pittsburgh Feds was not an
nounced by the joint committee OF
the major leagues. But It's said that
O. B. will fork over about 100000
this year and continue payments to
the Feds amounting to at least $4,000
per season for nearly twenty years to
come,
Pay Ward Estate.
The Ward estate, which will receive
payments made to the ill-fated Brook
lyn Feds, will get $4,000 per year for
about eighteen years, It's said, while
Harry Sinclair is to receive $4,000
per annum for ten years to cover the
rental Of the Newark ball park. Ed
Gwinner of Pittsburgh is said to have
made arrangements to settle his
claims for $4,000 fiat.
According to the best available in
formation 0. B, did not fall for the
claims entered by the Baltimore Feds.
The Balto-Feds, tits said. were duly
represented when the peace agree
ment was reached, and, as no pro-
vision was made to reimburse Balti-
more owners for their losses, the
Balto-Feds have no comeback.
During the recent schedule meet
ings of the major leagues in New
York feud of long standing between
Scout Joe Kelly Of the Yankees and
Mike Donlin was patched up.
Kelly was manager of the Cincin-
natl Reds in 1904 and Donlin was a
member OF the team. During the
worlds fair In St. Louis several of
the Reds had an all-night session with
the pasteboards, and as result Kelly
and Donlin had falling out which
later resulted in Donlin being sent
to the Giants.
That was nearly fourteen years ago.
and not until the two were prevailed
upon to shake hands in New York
were explanations made. Donlin said
he had retired early the night of the
card party, but that several other
members of the team came in late
and got him out of the hay, SO he
made night OF it with them. Kelly
had always thought that Donlin was
the prime mover in organizing the all;
! night vigil over the cards and chips.

Baltimore Manager Gets Him

Order to Land the Biz
League Star.

Jack Dunn of Baltimore, gossip
ing about the reputation he has made
for developing bali players and selling
them at big prices, declared the other
day that he considers Babe Ruth the
best of all the lot and he picked the
Red Sox pitcher out of score he
has sent up to make good.

at was in the winter of 1913 that a
friend of mine in Baltimore told me
of a boy named George Ruth, who
was in Mount St. Mary's school in
that city. This youngster, was in
formed, was big, husky fellow and
had the makings of great ball player.
SO one day I went out to the school
to see him. I'll never forget my first
glimpse of this youth, who was des-
tined to become a big league star
within two years from that day. There
were a lot of kids from the school
sliding on a pond on the school
grounds and one of the Christian
Brothers at the institution told me l
would find Ruth among boys at play.
Ruth Leading in Boys Play.
IT asked one of the boys which Of
them was Ruth and he pointed to an
overgrown kid who was enjoying the
fun on the ice to the fullest extent
and who appeared to be the leader of
the crowd. Afterwards I talked with
him in the Office of the school and
asked him if he cared to pitch for the
Orioles. He was delighted at the op-
portunity and gladly assented. | at
once began proceedings to get him
out of the institution. 1t seems that
his mother had died when he was 7
years old, and his father, being
i'll and unable to support him,
he was committed to the school
to stay until he reached his majority.
He was only 20 at the time I went
after him, but l had myself appointed
his guardian and he joined our club i'll
the spring.
1T didn't take me long to see that
he didn't need a great deal of polish
ing up to make him fit for the big
show, and soon after the season
opened l got in touch with Clark
Griffith and asked him to look Ruth
over. Grif promised me several times
to do this, but put me off so fire.
quently that l decided he didn't care
anything about the youngster and
finally I sold him to Boston. Griffith
has never forgiven himself for passing
up the chance to grab great pitcher,
and you can bet l remind him of the
matter every once in a while"

LEMONS HIT ROAD
FOR UNCUT BUSH
Dan TippIe and Cliff Markle,
HeraIded as PeaCherinOs,
Pass From Sight With
out Regrets.

The passing OF Dan Triple and
Cliff Markle, who have been released
to St. Paul by the New York Yam
KEGS, call final attention to two of the
greatest pitching disappointments in
the Disappointing pitching history OF
the New York American league club.
Tipple was one of those Sill 900 beau
ties who blossomed like an orchid in
the minor leagues, but when trans.
planted to the harsher soil Of the
majors took on the general appear
ance of citrus bud. Tipple was pur-
chased from the Indianapolis club OF
the American association three years
ago after he had won II games in a
row. No sooner had the New York
club taken title to the pitcher, who
was permitted to finish the season
with the Hoosiers, than he suffered
a blight and lost eight in succession.
Tipple had the distinction of being
the highest priced. minor league re-
cruit in 1915. when the Yankees went
the limit in outbidding FIVE other
clubs, 1t might be said that no minor
league player has brought as fancy
a price since. In some particulars,
Tipple's case paralleled that of Rube
Marquard. Rube also was purchased
from Indianapolis for $1,000 and his
first two seasons with the Giants were
dismal affairs. However. in the third
year, Rube got another chance and
made good, while Triple has been
shunted back to the minors.
On reporting to New York late in
the 1915 season, Tipple pitched two
hit game against Cleveland. The next
spring, when he was expected to be
the brightest luminary among a large
assortment OF prize rockies, Tipple
displayed absolutely no major league
ability. He was farmed out to the
Baltimore club in 1916. Last season
Tipple further hurt his chances by
being a holdout and refused to report
at Macon until few days before the
Yankees broke camp. He was sent to
Toronto and later TO Baltimore. AS
Tipple was able to scratch together
only II games and lose ID on teams
which finished first and third. Miller
Huggins informed Colonel Rupert
that he did not think 1t worth while
to take Dan on another training trip,
The Yankees might as well have
taken their $1,000 for Triple and
dropped it overheard.
Markle did not reach New York with
as great a reputation as Tipple, but
acquired one shortly after he landed.
He came from the Waco club of the
Texas league in the latter part Of
1915, and was a success right from
the start, scoring easy victories over
Boston and Chicago. He also started
the 1910 On in a blaze of glory,
and at one stretch had three straight
victories over the then worlds cham
pion Red Sox. Last summer he did
not earn his salt, as,s. ,

Walter Camp Passes Up GIo'
rious Opportunity to Select
Squad Of Stars in the
Service Abroad.

Most experts, including the vener-
able Walter Camp, have overlooked a
wonderful opportunity to make known
their choice of an All-America "Over
There" foot ball team.
Scores of athletes who held promi-
nence in every walk of college sport
are awaiting the gong that will bring
them to the ring for the big battle
against the German menace.
While some of the players selected
for the "Over There" team are not as
trim as they used to be, all were
prime performers in their day and
good copy for the sporting writers.
Each of them has a rendezvous
with death awaiting, but the majority
no doubt will be able to sidestep the
grim reaper or dodge their way
through his keen-sighted scouts.
Three Tigers Selected.
On the eleven are three Princeton
ians, Eddie Hart and Hobey Baker,
former captains, and Bluethenthal.
Eddie Hart, who is an officer in the
reserve corps with General Perish
ing's forces, captained the Tigers
when they beat the Harvard eleven in
1911, the year when Sammy White
signalized the resumption of foot ball
friendship between the two colleges
after breach of fifteen years by gal
Looping 80 yards for the touchdown
which made the Princetonians victor
ious, s to E.
Bluethenthal and Baker also play
ed in this epoch making battle. Later
they tasted the dregs of defeat,
though not without honor. Charley
Brickley defeated the Jerseymen un-
der Captain Baker by field goal in
1913.
Bakers fame is better known to
American sport lovers as a hockey
player than disciple of the gridiron.
Both men are flying, and Hobey has
been reported as having already
brought down one German.
Three Ellis also grace the "Over
There" team. Harry lie Gore, right
halfback on the 1916 eleven, which
was the first Yale team in number
of years to accomplish the downfall
of Haughton coached team, is with
the expeditionary forces.

He has been placed at fullback. His
