LOCALSLOSE TWO
CLOSE GAMES
Tony Wins Today, 4 to 2.-Lady-
smith Loses To BlOOmer
Sunday 4 to 8

Tony defeated the Ladysmith team at
the fair grounds today in very inter-
esting game. The score was 4 to ..
For village of its size, Tony certain
ly has SOME team. They we're play
ing ball all the time and won out in
spite of the fact that Rutland pitched a
fine game for the locals. In fact, Ru-
lands pitching should have won the
game but ragged support in the first
inning allowed Tony to put three runs
across and the locals found those three
runs as big as a mountain. After the
first inning Ladysmith tightened up
and the visitors were unable to make
any more circuits of the bags, except a
fluke run in the ninth on balk.
Iadysmith scored one run in the
fourth inning and another in the ninth.
Difficulty in hitting the ball seemed to
be the main trouble with most of the
locals
+. Leonhard pitched very good
game for Tony.
The score by innings:
Ladysmith 10 O / O O @ IL
Tony 0 0 90 0 0 IA
The teams lined up as follows:

Although Ladysmith made more hits
than BlOOmer in last Sundays game
played on the local diamond, the visit
| ing team seemed to have the edge on the
locals III the matter of fielding and
won the game by the close score of 4 tC
l3. The game was hard fought from
| start to finish and the interest of the
fans was held at high pitch throughout
| the entire nine innings.
Ruland'S work in the box for Lady

tee, presided over by Grant V. Clark,
chairman, tentative arrangements were
made and committees appointed for
the big doings to feature the celebra-
ton OF RuSk county's reception to its
returned soldier and sailor boys.
Barbecue Main Feature
AS far as plans are 10 far decided on
the festivities will be opened by

MANY LEAGuE PLANS.

PARIS, Jan. 14.-(By the AssOciat- ed Press )-Nearly 40 different plans for a league of nations are before the Amelican delegates. Each has points of merit, but many contain sections directly at variance with the ideas forming the basis of the other schemes.
 In order that the inter allied con ference may benefit by all this mat ter, it is to be laid before a commis- sicn created for the purpose: it is even probable that it will be submit ted separately to each delegation, in order to hasten a conclusion.
 So far as they have expressed them. selves. the Amerhans. after a pains taking examination, which is still in progress, find nothing. it is declared which endangers any American ideals such as the Monroe doctrine, for in stance.
 One point upon which the Ameri- cans will insist, it is understood, is that whatever program it adopts. it shall be included in the treaty which officially terminates the world war.

 that strong reasons must be adduced to secure any such change.
 Colonies Aid America
 Inasmuch as no issues before the conference will be decided by voting but only by unanimous action, the large number of British delegates re sultings from the decision to allow colonial representations has not act ually increased Great Britain's strength. At the same time, it is be- heved because of the similarity of views held by the Americans, Canadi- ans. Australians and New Zealanders, for instance. their presence would ada moral strength to the American plans.
 An explanation of the allowance of three delegates to Brazil, while Bel gium and Greece got two and Portugal one, is the fact that Brazil not only gave most valuable service in the war in affording naval protection against German raiders to the south Atlantic trade routes, and the east coast or South Africa, but that she represents the South American continent in the ranks of the belligerents.

Okla, ter ritory to the Western league with a club assured from either Topeka or Hutchinson for Tulsa, while Portland and Seattle are said to be slated for the Pacific Coast league again after a few technicalities are cleaned up.
 interest in Giants
 Great interest was displayed in the change of control of the New York Giants and John J. McGraw, now vice president, and his new partners, Charles A. Stoneham and Judge Fran cis K McQuade were kept busy all day receiving the congratulations of base ball magnates and fans, both in this city and other points along the big and little circuits.
 Though McGraw is vice-president he intends to continue as manager and for that reason will be barred from sessions of the magnates, unless the rule which recently barred Fred Mitch ell of the Chicago club for similar con ferences is changed.

IA, tBy the Associat- ed Press) )-The bolsheyiki government in PetTograd has telegraphed an ulti- matum to the Swiss federal authorities saying that unless 30 bolsheviks, who were arrested and imprisoned in the fortress of Savantan, in the Canton of Valais, are released before February |. 30 Swiss citizens in Petrograd will be shot without trial
 There Is great indignation here over the situation. The bolshevist move ment seems to be spreading in the Rhine towns and in north Switzerland. where Madame BalOnOva, a Russian who recently was expelled. has return ed secretly with several million rubles for the carrying out of bolsheviki propaganda.

unable to prevent by moral suasion. Lord Robert Cecil said he believed, Loweyer. that each nation should bind itself to use all means, even force, in order to compel the dispute to be brought before the leagues tribunal.
 Public Opinion as Power.
 The preservation of peace would be the normal instead of the special function of the league said Lord Robert. ".ln case of quarrel the league could only express an opinion. because an international army is not feasible for settling disputes. The power behind the league would not be police control, but the weight of public opinion Public opinion, how ever would be sufficient to insure at least that any future war would be reduced to single disputes-that is, there would never be another war like the present one"
 Lord Robert would not go so far as to say there would be no more wars, but he expressed confidence that they would be confined to the immediate disputants.
 III tle udlly ilIe OI any cOuhtI!r Lord Robert continued. it is public opinion and not the policement which controls the conduct of the people. You have yourselves seen that even in cases where Jaw and public opinion clash. public opinion wins"
 As to the machinery of a league of nations, Lord Robert said there should be an international secretariat Operat- ing permanently to carry on the rou- tine business between meetings of the main international tribunal. The main tribunal would meet periodical ly. perhaps every month or six weeks, to handle matters of moment

REPUBLICAN ASKS RUSS WITHDRAWAL
ny Review Leased virej


 WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-Less than a dozen senators were in their seats today for another session of the sen ate given over largely to a discussion of questions to come before the peace conference.
 Senators Borah of Idaho, republican, and ShafrOth, democrat, of Colorado. spoke on the proposed league of na- tions and Senator Thomas of Colorado. democrat, discussed military interven- tion in Russia. During the debate, Senator France of Maryland, repub- lican, introduced a resolution prOpOs- ing early withdrawal of American troops from Europe and postponement of the formation of a league of nations until after the peace treaty is con cluded.
 In opposing league of nations, Sen ator Borah especially attacked the pro posed use of military forces by an international league and also critized the administration program for a large expansion of the American navy.
 Senator Shafroth declared that a league of nations should be formed at once and vigorously opposed the reso- lution of Senator Knox of Pennsyl- vania. republican, proposing postpone ment of consideration of this question by the peace conference.
 Retention of American troops in Russia was advocated by Senator Thomas, who said this was necessary to protect military stores and to aid the Czecho-Slovak forces. He denied that war is being waged against the bolsheviki but said some policy to combat bolshevism should be adopted

naval terms of the armistice stated according to the morning newspapers that the inter-allied commission which visited Kiel and Wilhelmshaven dis covered submarines under cOnstruc- tion in slips, which the enemy thought would be overlooked. The report adds that the Germans contended that they were entitled to retain possession Of the underwater craft.
 According to the report the discov- cry at Kiel and Wilhelmshaven led to the finding of other vessels and con sequently the new terms of the armis- tice will require the surrender of all submarines already built and the de struction of those on the ways.

LORD ROBERT ON LEAGUE.

PARIS. Jan. l4-(By the AssOciat- ed Press. .)-Lord Robert Cecil, who has been charged by the British gov ernment to represent Great Britain's ideas with regard to a league of na- tions. tonight gave American journal ists his views as to the actual working details of the proposed league. 1t was the most comprehensive state ment yet undertaken by any of the delegates to the peace conference.
 At the outset, Lord Robert offered his definition Of a league of nations, as follows:
 Defines League.
 An improved association of nations providing safeguards loT peace and securing better international co-Opera- tion"
 The basis of a league Of nations, as conceived by Lord Robert. may be epitomized as follows:
 An agreement among nations by which each nation binds itself to see that all warlike disputes are present ed to the leagues tribunal for consid- eration and the use of force to ac- cCmpliSh this, il necessary.
 Quarrels are to remain under con sideration for a specified time and further time is to elapse after deci- sion has been reached before the con tending countries shall be allowed to go to war Moral force, however, is to be the ultimate factor employed to prevent war.
 In amplification, Lord Robert as- serted that an international army and navy were not feasible at this time. Nations, he said, were not ready to surrende- their sovereignty to league of nations to the extent that they would be willing to allow a league to dictate whether they should employ their forces in the settling of a quarrel which the tribunal had been

BASEBALL CONFAB HOLDING INTEREST OF SPORTS WORLD
CBy Review Leased Wire,

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-Among fea- lures of the week of baseball recon structiOn which began here today, the most important were:
 The New York National league club, the best playing one in the major leagues. was sold.
 Negotiations for the purchase Of the St Louis Nationals reached a stage where it appeared as though the prop erty would soon change hands.
 The major and minor leagues took lengthy counsel and strengthened their hands for the battle for and against the elimination of the draft.
 Contest Holds Boards
 In its fsr-reaching effect the contest between the majors and minors was the outstanding feature of the day of conference. Members of the big and little circuits were in session, formal or informal. all day and late into the evening While the magnates Of both groups were chary of information re- garding the progress being made it was evident that no common ground had been reached at a late hour to- night
 The new International league. through its president, David L. Fultz, went on record in favor of the abOli- ton of the draft as did informal meet ings of the American association, Pa cific Coast and other minor league magnates.
 So far as could be gathered from the individual expressions of the big leaguers. they are not disposed to grant the demands of the minors but are not adverse to a compromise if a mutual understanding can be reach ed which will not seriously disturb the professional game structure
 Talk League Problems
 The attitude of the National league will be considered tomorrow. Limita tion of the club roster to IS players. restricted spring training period and even the 40 game schedule will be discussed. The new owners of the New York club are said to favor a more liberal policy.
 As to the St Louis Nationals, it was siad tonight that Russell Gardner of St. Louis, with James C. McGill, form CT owner of the Indianapolis. Denver and Springfield clubs, had made an of- fer for the Cardinals If the club changes hands it is understood Jack Hendricks will be retained as manager but the future of Branch Hickey. the present executive, is uncertain
