A difference of opinion existing be-
tween the National ard American
leagues as to the proper construction
of the playerlimit rule, especially the
number of players that can be placed
with minor league clubs with the right
of recall. The National League club
owners voted that all clubs be re-
stricted to eight players of this class,
as is now provided for by the agree
ment between the major and minor
leagues, the American league having
recently voted in favor of an unre-
stricted number of optional players. The
disagreement, under the rules, will be
one for adjustment by Commissioner

Special Dispotch to The Tribune

CHICAGO, May 19.-The Yankees
this afternoon and trounced the White
! Sox in a one-sided battle by a score
of IL to 4. Colonies Rupert and Hus-
ton, aided by Ed G. Barrow, mascotted
the Yankees to victory The Yankee
owners had as their guest at the game
Judge K NJ. Lands, the exalted ruler
Of baseball.
The Yankees showed at their smash
ing best in this second phase of the
| White Sox campaign They lined the
ball to all corners, making sixteen
hits of varying distances and running
the gamut from scratch bingles TO
drives out Of the lot. 1t was Babe
Ruth who did the scratching to-day
and his weakling along the third base
line probably established a record
Not in Ruth's memory has he ever
done stunt of that nature.
Bobby Roth hit the ball out Of the
lot. In the fifth inning he greeted
Mulrenan with a Tousing home-run
drive to the left field bleachers. Pipp
Peck and Meusel had triples. Schang
produced double, as did Meusel, and
pretty nearly every one had single
1t was small wonder then that the
count ran up into double figures.
Hoyt Eases Up in Fifth
Waite Hoyt had lot of fun with the
Sox. He did not allow the boys any
runs at all until the fifth and then
with the game safe, he eased up and
! hits and runs. But four tallies was
as far as he was willing to go. Then
he turned on the juice again and there
was little doing. Hoyt has won two
out of three starts on the trip and is
going strong.
The full purpose of the Yanks was
not long shrouded in doubt. Roth flied
to Strunk in center and Peck singled
through the box. Ruth was passed
/ but Wallie Pipp tripled down the right
field alley, cleaning up. Meusel hit to
left for two bases and Pipp cantered
across the plate.
Meusel opened the fourth with a
single. Baker tented at a sacrifice
/ and then hit safely, sending Meusel to
/ third. Ward walloped long fly to
Strunk and Meusel scored.
Yankees Score Seven Runs
Bobby Roth resumed the scoring
campaign in the fifth inning and be-
fore the third man had expired, seven
runs were over Roth banged one into
the lett field bleachers and Peck fol
lowed with a triple TO center, which
! Strunk played poorly. Ruth walked
and Hodge went into the box fo1
| Chicago.
Ruth broke out to steal second and
Pipp grounded to p the box s Sci rs as
scored easily and Babe slid safely tc
third to score, as Shelly threw to left
field trying to head him off.
Meusel tripled to center, Baker sin
gled to center, scoring Meusel. and the
melee broke out again. Ward singled
to right on the hit and run, Baker
taking third. Schang doubled, clean
ing the bases and going to third or
the throw to stop Ward. Hoyt's
! grounder scored Schang, but Roth, UP
for the second time, ended the inning
by tanning.
The White Sox stole some of the
Yankees stuff in the fifth inning md
got four runs. Falk opened with a
two-bagger and scored on Strunk's
single. Baker booted a grounder by
Shelly. Hits by Schalk and Johnson
followed and ran the total Of runs
