Since the recent baseball season
came 10 a close the maEnates have

HeydIer Gets Increase.
The action OF the National league
in extending president John Heydler's
term TO 1928 with a generous increase
IN salary was another sound and sane
move that met with general favor
Heydlsr has proven himself a sub
stantial, capable and methodical head
for the senior ma10r-just the kind
OF q president the league has always
sought-aud while he may have made
some mistakes he cannot be accused
OF having committed errors that we're
avoidable.
He contends that he had no
LEGAL proof IN fhe Chase case in
1918 and in face Of the absence
OF such proof he did the only
thing that he could have done
when he acquitted the player Of
charges Of gambling made against
him. Had the National league
been in possession OF valid proof
against Chase Il s. only logical TO
believe that he would have been
expelled from the game at once
On the other hand. fl any National
league maeunte OF player did any
thing to cover Chase's trail, that
maEuafe or player committed
grave mistake. for IN expose OF
Chase in 1913 would probably
have averted the 1913 worlds
