He has chosen the farm instead of the diamond and he expects to spend the summer down in Maryland instead of pound ing out hits and listening to the ap- plause of the fans along the American league trail.
 Baker, whose distaste for the travel ling side of baseball has been well known for years, announced at the conclusion of the 1919 season that he was thru with baseball for all time Early this year Higgins met the home run king by appointment at Baltimore 1 and discussed the situation with him 1 Baker would not promise to come back | but he did promise Huggins that he would notify him as soon as a decision was reached.

AL SHUBERT WINS DECISION
 OVER PETE HERMAN

New Bedford, March 11.-Al Shubert of this city beat Pete Herman, the bantam king, for a popular decision in a ten round bout here last night be- fore a crowded house. Shubert car ried the battle right from the first bell and had Herman clinching and hold ing on most of the way.
 The boys were supposed to weigh 122 pounds, and both were under that weight. Pop O'Brien, the veteran Philadelphia referee, was imported by Herman to handle the fight and had no trouble the boys boxing fast and clean.
 The local man was on the short end of the betting, but the fight the bear cat put up surprised even his most ardent admirers. He almost outboXed Herman at long range and had in the infghting two to one lead. His left hook landed often and hard on Her mans face and body and he crossed a right with a deadly slam often
 Shubert started by winning the first round by shade and the second by q wide margin. The third was even, but the fourth found tho champion lead ing by a shade. The fifth, sixth and seventh were even, and the eighth,

 Baker first came into the major leagues in 1908, joining the Athletics in the fall of that year. He had es- tablished reputation as a sIugger with the Reading club of the Fri State league. He was third baseman of the Mackmen thru six seasons dur ing which time he became one of the greatest long distance hitters in the game, specializing as a home run artist. His home runs in worlds ser ies against the Giants made him na- tionally famous and the name Home Run" was pinned on him. He re- mained out of the game in 1915, fol- lowing dispute with Mack, and was sold early in 1916 to the Yankees. He has played three seasons with the New | York club

New York, March 11.-Off1cials Of the California Lawn Tennis association and the United States National Lawn Tennis association are considering the details of proposed team match be- tween the east and west, it was an nounced tonight by George T, Adee, president of the United States Nation al Lawn Tennis association.
 These intersectional contests have proven so popular in other seasons, said MT. Adee, that every effort is being made to arrange such an event for next summer. Because of the many applications for tournaments on the Atlantic seaboard and the resulting conflicts in dates, an effort is being made to schedule the east-west match for some date iii July. Cincinnati is being considered as the place to hold this match, but award of the event cannot be announced until the ar engagements now in the course of cor respondence are completed. The de tails will probably be confirmed at the meeting of the executive committee in New York on March 21.'
