OLYMPIC GAMES
DATES OBJECTED
TO BY AMERICA
NJ

New York, Dec. 17.-Members Of
the American Olympic games COM
mittee, when informed of the seec-
ton of the dates for the various
competitions at Antwerp next year,
expressed satisfaction with the
program with the exception Of the
dates selected for the swimming
and rowing events.
1t was pointed out that these con-
tests, falling almost a month after
the completion Of the track and
field games. would badly upset the
plans for the American team now
being organized. Unless change
can be effected, it may be necessary
to send the team to Belgium in two
sections as the swimmers and oars
men, a delegation running into
double figures, cannot be trans
ported with the track contingent
and held in Belgium month after
the major portion Of the team is
enroute home.
Plans for the formation of the
American team are rapidly adj
vancing and arrangements for the
housing Of between 1000 and loo
contestants from the United State:
. are we'll under way. Owing to the
low altitude of Antwerp, it has been
decided to quarter the team at a
considerable distance from the
scene of the games proper and
transport the entrants from day tc
day to the stadium as required by
the program.
This was considered to be a wiser
course than to permit the athletes
to be quartered amid the noise and
confusion Of the city and in closc
proximity to the damp air Of the
salt meadows.
/ 1t also was pointed out that the
course for the marathon race from
Brussels to Antwerp will be ovel
historic ground and along the same
roads over which the German arm!
advanced in its initial attack o1
Belgiub at the beginning Of tht
world war in August, 1914. The
runners will pass through Malines
famous for the determined stand o.
Cardinal MERCER and the cathedra
which the Germans used as an oh
servation post in their attack OF
Antwerp.
All along the Is miles will b.
evidence Of the bitter fighting ii
the earliest days of the war includ
ing the completely wrecked outrin
of forts at Wavre, destroyed by thu
shells Of the big Berthas, and thi
hundreds of graves Of the falle!
combatants.
The race probably will be rur
over a Belgium block and asphalt
course unless special provision i!
made for q soft dirt pathway paral
leling the main roads.

N,L,.OWNERS TO-
Do AWAY WITH
FREAK HURLINC
Sp;tters and Sinners Relegated to
Past BY Vote; But Can They
Enforce New Novel

Chicago, Dec. 17.-Believing there
were not enough base hits last sea
son to satisfy the fans, the National
league club owners have, voted
unanimously in favor of the aboll-
ton of all freak deliveries by the
pitcher. Some time in the near
future the rules committees OF the
two major leagues will meet joint
ly, at which time changes In the
code may be made. As yet, the
American league magnates haven't
voted for such a change. but indica-
lions are enough of the eight mem
bers favor the elimination OF all
tricks In hurting. ~
President veeck of the Cubs is
one of the three National league:s
appointed to change the rules. Ee
stated yesterday that he thought
the change would be made, al
though the American leaguers
haven't expressed themselves offic-
tally on the matter.
Sinner and Splitter to Go.
1.-THE National league thinks the
shine ball and the 'spit' ball and
the emery ball and all of those
freaks are had for baseball and
should be eliminated" said Week.
Although there are some expert
pitchers in these freak things
among the National league clubs.
not one club owner opposed the
propOsed change.
Even Garry Hermann, who has
Hold Eller and Ray Fisher. both
supposed to be shine experts. vot-
ed in favor of cutting out the
freaks. Probably no club in our
league will be hurt as much as the
worlds champions, but just the
same Hermann is in favor Of the
change.
"Of course. We expect to 90 along
| with the American league always
on the matter of rules, and II the
Johnson body opposes such a
change, it might not be made. At
lease, not this winter.
Plan Strict Enforcement
THE only kick against the
change seems to be that the UNI
pires will not be able to enforce
such a rule. We made inquiries o.
American association umpires re-
garding that. The association abol-
ished the spitball and the freaks
and went along much better than
before. The umpires had NO
trouble in enforcing the rule after
the first week or two Of the season.
"A fine Of $25 for the first offenEe
and a suspension and fine for the
second will soon stop all pitchers
from trying to cheat. 1t stopped
them in the association, and the
hitting in the league improved at
once"
Just what will become of such
experts as Eller, Eddie Cicotte OF
the White Sox, Allan Sothoron Of
the Browns, Jim Shaw Of Washing
ton, and a dozen. or more others
who rely mainly on the sinner to
sail past the batter. IS hard to de-
termine. 1t looks as IL some Of
them will be put out Of business.
Substitute for Curve.
In most cases, a pitcher who IS
shine" expert is SO for the sim
pie reason he never has been able
to develop a good curve. Sorle
pitchers never can develop q curve.
Ed Walsh was one who labored a
couple of years trying to get a
curve, but couldn't get one that
would break six inches. He &C.
veloped a splitter and became great.

SAYS PROSPECTS GOOD
FOR RELIEF ON EXPORTS

Joseph N%ewburger returned to Mem
phis Monday morning from Washington,
y. c., where he went at the head Of a
delegation seeking to have the inter-
national cotton conference meet in
Memphis this year. Mr.. N%ewburger
was accompanied by !. H. Barnwell and
w. G.. Turner.
Two other members of the commit
tee, John r. Flippin and F. NJ. Crump,
remained in Washington to obtain a
return of the through bill Of lading plan
for cotton exporters. They are In CON
ference with the British minister of
foreign shipping, and Mr.. Newburger
states that they seem to have a good
chance to obtain relief. The through
bill of lading, he says, is vital to the
cotton shippers, as foreign shipments
Of cotton from Memphis have dropped
off b5 per cent on account of not being
able to get through bills of lading as be-
fore the war,
l.. K. Salisbury. president of the
Chamber of Commerce, and Warrick
Aiken, two other members of the COM
mittee, remained in the East.

IN HARD LUCK;
COURT CAN'T PAY HIN

The county court Monday refused to
purchase a. high-powered automobile
Tor the sheriff's office and to reimburse
him for moneys spent in improving the
Jail, on recommendation of the commit
tee named to investigate the claims of
the sheriff. The committee, composed
OF Justices Helms and Taylor and
County Attorney h. Lee Barrels, ex-
planned that it was illegal for the coun-
" court to make such appropriations
but admitted that the claims were just
in themselves, The committee advised
the sheriff to ask for a legislative act
giving him relief.
The sheriff explained to the court
In asking for the appropriation that
there were few fees in his office due
to the shutting down Of the courts wien
the attorneys aided in QUESTIONABLE
work during the war and during the in
fluenza epidemic, and he was forced to
spend money out Of his W pocket to
keep the office going.
The sheriff said he wanted a high
power car to intercept bootleggers COM
ing in with automobiles loaded with
whisky. The sheriff also asked that
moneys spent by him in furnishing the
Jail with beds and bed clothing
amounting to $500, and money expended
for typewriter, office stationery, etc, be
refunded.
The sheriff said Monday that he
would try to get relief in the legisla-
turC.
