FROM MAYS DECISION
American League President Seems
Determined to Fight
Big Three.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The question
Of authority in the American League
will be left for the courts TO decide,
1t became evident today. Contrary to
expectations, President: Ban Johnson
las appealed the Mays decision and
seems determiney to fight other ac-
tions started by the ''insurSent" fac
tion on legal battlefiel1s.
A jury will now have to decide
where the real authority was vested
prior to the recent annual meeting.
Counsel on both sides recognize the
Importance of Johnson's appeal, or
rather, the trial which will now fol-
low the appeal.
II the injunction can be smashed,
Ban will have the Big Three licked
to a frazzle. II the injunction is made
permanent, the old board of directors
will be vindicated in everything, even
to the reputation of Ban Johnson as
president of the league.

''Hard Boiled Egg" Is
Jack Doyle's Own.

John Doyle, the New York
sporting man, is the originator
OF the hard-boiled-egg thing.
John had a pool parlor at the
corner Of Forty-second street and
Broadway, years ago and knew
his customers pretty we'll. There
was an old bald-headed guy
there every night who never
played In game, but who used.
to pick up a cue after the players
had finished and run off a few
points. Doyle says that his head
resembled an egg, and he was
sure that his pockets were lined
with fish hooks. No one had ever
seen him change a dime. He
was the original nickel nurser.
He'd run OF a hundred or so
points each night before the
pool boy could clean of the table.
One night a fellow challenged
him to a game for fifty cents.
The guy was fifteen points
ahead of the egg in a fifty-point
game. The egg excused himself
for q moment to go to the cigar
counter. He didn't stop at the
cigar counter but ook a runout
powder down Broadway and has
not been seen or heard of since.
Doyle called him the Hard
Boiled Egg. The thing grew, and
today whenever you see a tigh-
wad you invariably hear some
thing about an egg.

Until somebody makes good, we
have no second baseman nor short
stop. Frank Ellerbe, for a youngster
in professional baseball, made a good
impression upon the fans last sum-
mer. but just how long he can go on
remains to be seen. He was made to

casion when facing a pitcher with

fast ball. but extremely weak on a

Carpenter refuses to consider a

Lewis. "He has signed a vaudeville
contract to appear in France and
England for which he will receive
10000 pounds tabout 314s,000 at the
present rate of exchange). This will
tie him up until July.
Carpenter has definitely refused

1T is generally understood that
Carpenter favors fighting in Eng

that he may never enter the ring
