more goal from scrimmage than the
Violet.
The Violet went out In 'front.' during
the first minute of play. Holman caging
a field goal. Pfeiffer tossed Army's
first foul goal a moment later and with
the Violet i'm the lead to l they settled
down and soon had a IL to 3 margin.
Just before half time. however. Army
spurted, French's two field goals making
the score IL to 7, when the intermission
came. Robinson's keen eye from the
foul line kept the visitors in the van
during the second period. even though
Army by a rally registered four Held
goals and a brace of points from the
foul line In this period.

Who Was ResponsibleY

Who was responsible for the attempt
10 clip Judge Landis's wings and MAKE
him largely a figurehead? That was 1he
question Of the hour. II was learned
that Barney Dreyfuss from the outset
opposed the changing OF the word from
take" to recommend" but the three
American Leaguers and Hermann Z
was said, favored the change. So IN
that shape the agreement was adopted
yesterday by the major leagues and pre-.
sented to-day to Judge Lands for final
acceptance. The same change. too. had
been made in the new maJor-minor
agreement. and the minors to-day before
they were through with Judge Land,s
had pledged themselves to make II
take" instead of recommend"
The minor leaguers have accented the
new agreement. but not all OF them will
operate under the draft. On one side Il
was declared that the International
League and American Association would
not operate under the draft and that
there would be half a dozen leagues to
follow suit: yet Barney Dreyfuss. ne
Of the most astute of magnates. declares
they'll all agree to the draft except two
clubs in one league and four in another.
There are so many contradictory opin-
ions and reports at baseball gatherings
of the Importance of this weeks meeting
that It is bewildering to try to reconcue
them all.
1t is evident. however, that somebody
didn't relish giving Judge Lands the
power and authority he has. and II
isn't difficult to guess who. The affair
turned out 10 be another victory FOR
those who from the start have favored

NO POWERS CURTAILED
Ultimatum Has Desired Effect

BY WILLIAM B. HANNA.

Special Despatch to THE NEW YoRK HERALD.
CHICAGO. Jan. 12.-Judge Lands to-
day was formally installed as Com
missioner of Organized Baseball. the
biggest and most authoritative Office
ever to exist in the game The sixteen
major league clubs signed their contract
with him, which completes the business
part of il. and the minor leagues pledged
10 his support. but before these things
happened what looked like intricate poll
tics OF recent Matching were revealed
and Judge Lands had told the baseball
delegates they would have TO do with
out him if a change slipped to the new
agreement in the last few days were
accepted.
Those responsible for the changed
verbiage-only single word, but vital
in its meaning-which would have
stripped Judge Lands of most OF the
power with which II was purposed TO
endow him. backed water in a hurry
and full power was restored to him. the
power agreed on when the major league
agreement was approved in New York.
The matter when it became known to
all of the assembled baseball men here
created a big stir. together with how
Judge Lands, quick to catch the import
Of one changed word, had throttled the
move instantly and with a vigor which
makes him bigger man than ever in
baseball.
For several days prior to to-day theI
major league draft committee had been
preparing the new major LEAGUE agree
ment for its final adoption. This COM
mittee consists OF Presidents Heydler
and Johnson, ex-officio, and Dreyfuss,
Ebbets and Hermann OF the National
League and Navin, Griffith and Shibe
OF the American. Ebbets did not attend
the sessions here. He was not in town. !
so had nothing to do with the proposed
curbing OF Judge Landis's power which
aroused the latters emphatic disap-
proval. IL not his ire.

The Kansas department of the
American Legion is one of the first
to establish a news service, working in
direct conjunction with the National
American Legion News Service which
has correspondents in all sections of
this country and thruout the world.
1t is the plan of the. American Lee
gion to furnish a weekly news service
to a majority of the leading newspa-
pers of the state, entirely without cost
to the papers. There will be three dis
tinct sets of copy sent from the head
quarters of the Kansas department on
Tuesday of each week-one exclusive
to morning papers, another exclusive
to evening papers and the third to
weekly and semi-weekly papers.
"If the American Legion has come
to be a force for good in the com-
munity, state and nation, we feel that
we owe much of it to the cooperation
of the press in giving US wholesome
publicity. AS an expression of graft
tude to the Kansas press, we will at
tempt to continue furnishing the kind
of news which will be welcomed by
your readers-not alone by ex-service
people, legionnaires and auxiliary
members, but by all other interested
citizens of Kansas" said Frank E.
Samuels. adjutant of the Kansas de-
partment, in making the announce
ment of the establishment of the news

prospect for the session. One of the
bills-providing for senatorial reap
portionment-has air eady been intro
duced. With adjournment Of the pres
emit session many counties may find
themselves in strange company in re-
CARDS congressional, senatorial and 1u-
dicial associations.
During a period of years COM
1aunity of interests is usually estab-
lished in any political district. In
counties. the lawyers are brought to-
gether in a manner that usually ce-
ments many warm friendships and
binds the communities together. Sim
liar conditions affecting men and wo-
men in public life are encountered in
the senatorial and congressional dis
tricts.
Upsets Many Plans.
Any change in the various districts
of the state always upsets many plans
and ambitions. 1t means that i judge
or congressman who seemingly holds
a life tease on his job under astab-
lished conditions may suddenly be
without IN enthusiastic constituency
when his home county is made q part
of another district. In CONSEQUENCE
the reapportionment bills before the
Kansas legislature during the last ten
years have made a low track record.
They have always brought many peo-
pie to Topeka from over the state and
in the end there was general consent
not to disturb existing conditions.
Governor Allen wants a judicial re-
apportionment at this session. A bill
covering the plan will be introduced
at an early date.
To Reapportion Districts.
A bill providing for reapportionment
of the senatorial districts has already
been introduced 1t is quite certain
that the upper house will look with
doubt and suspicion on a proposal to
split the districts of the forty members
and tear down agreements and GUS
toms which have been in effect for
many years.
The most serious problem, tho, may
be the congressional rea pportionment
bill. With, the prospect that congress
will give Kansas but seven instead of
eight congressman, redivision of the
state at this session may be neces-
sary. A congressional reapportionment
means one Republican congressman
must stay at home after March 4, 1928.
And rome of them seemingly want to
be retired by legislative enactment.
No definite plans have been offered
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1921-01-21

for the change. When the proposal
comes, it is certain to encounter trou-
BILE. Any plan which could be de-
vised is seemingly due for sorrow when
it is critically surveyed by friends of
a number of the Kansas delegation
when things begin to slip.
The congressional reapportionment
bill will probably be originated by one
of the legislative committees. A con-
gressiona1 reapportionment committee
has already been named in the senate.
Speaker Harvey might name special
committee in the house. The reap
portionment bill will be framed in re-
gard to geographical lines of the
counties and districts as well as in ac-
cord with population and existing asso-
Citations.
