new CONTRACT MAY
STOP HOLDING OUT
Under Its Provisions Players
Must Obey Spring Prac-
tiCe Orders.

There has been fine hold-out
crop this winter and the end Is not
yet. for some of the most desperate
and deeply rooted cases are still to
be harvested. The ballplayers have
baked from q variety of reasons.
but mainly because the money they
have been asked to play for does not
come up to their ideas Of what they
should draw with the memory of
the great crowds last season fresh
In their minds.
= However, some hold out with the
intention Of avoiding the training
trip. They object to the hard work
In the South and participation in a
dozen or more exhibition games that
do not count in the records. They
have even advanced the proposition
that the players should share in
the receipts of these exhibition
games.
And so they 'hold out" Some are
reasonable; others unreasonable. No
one blames a player for getting oil
he can, but the chronic hold-oTt
often makes himself unpopular with
the fans by endangering the success
of his team by his obstinacy.
However, holding out is nearly at
an end. Under the new form Of
contract prepared by Judge Lands
there is a clause which gives the
club owner the right to penalize the
player who does not report for
practice when ordered to do so.
Further, he must take part in the
exhibition games scheduled by his
team. Under this clause men VITO
are late in reporting may have a
fine imposed on them. There is one
thing a ballplayer hates and that Is
to have his money taken away by
the fining route, so 1t looks as
though tho boys will be spry in
getting into the line next spring.
The clause on. the new Lands
contract which will reach the hold
out, reads:
"In order to enable the player to
At himself for his duties under this
contract, the club may require the
player to report for practice at such
place as the club may designate,
and to participate in such exhibi-
ton contests as may be arranged
for a certain period prior to the
playing season without any compen-
sation than that herein elsewhere
provided.
'In the event OF the player failing
to report for practice or to partici-
pate in the exhibition games, as
provided for penalty by way of a
fine may be imposed by the club,
the same to be deducted from the
compensation stipulated herein"

Gosnell, of Tech, and Dennis, OF
Business. went through but half the
season. They would have fitted in
we'll in this group had they been able
to play through the eight games.
There was but one natural shooter
in the series and that was Jeffress, of
Western. Burke showed remarkable
improvement both in floor work and
shooting over last season, but was in
clined to "set" for the same trouble
that Jimmy Lemon was guilty of.
Jeffress., on the other hand, got the
BALL away with lightning rapidity, in
variably started the ball toward the
basket when II came time to shoot,
and was uniformly successful despite
the fact that he was the lightest
played in the series
Supplee showed the most marked
