Had 1t not been for the New In- ternat1onal, the draft agreement would likely have been signed at New Tor kand everything all settled now but the Class AA league of the east held out for what the majors decid- ed was an exorbitant price and the majors baked.

Clark P. Lane president of the Bridgeport Baseball club is attending tha meeting of the Eastern league Springfield, this afternoon. The ses- sion promises to be one of the most important in the history of the league because matters of interest to the league proper and a lengthy discus slun of the new agreement the minors are expected to make with the major
 leagues will take place,
 President Dan O'Neil will attend the meeting scheduled for next week in Chicago at which time 1t Is ex- pected the differences between the big and little fellows will be adjusted. At the conference this afternoon the league mnenates will undoubtedly instruct President ONeil in relation to the new agreement the minors are expected to make with the big leagues and the question of setting the dates 1 of the opening and closing of next years schedule will probably come ul l for consideration.

The suspended players were playing in a contest be- tween the Ramblers and Pioneers at the Municipal Recreation gym, after two hours practice with the Red and Black squad.

 When they appeared on the floor >f the gym he ordered them to leave put he lads refused to~obey his or 4ers and he reported the matter to Principal Moore, who advised the suspension. The players under the 1an are members of the first squad md are considered the best players ,n the team and will be missed by he Red and Black quintet.

THEM DAYS.
(By w. A. PHELON.)

Our daddies strove at football till Heaped figures strewed the graS- They had no fancy tactics, and They uSA no forward pass Just kick. or buck the center, or Go sprinting with the ball. And yet. somehow. a royal time Was much enjoyed by all, Our daddies played the diamond
 game
 Without a bunch of rules That made the progress of the sport Much like collegiate schools There were no wondrous inside plays To clutter up the game And yet-a1rocious though it seems They reveled in the same.
 Our daddies strongly swung end
 Smote,
 And wielded wicked gloves
 They didn't dance and feint and stall. Nor act like turtle-doves
 They didn't ask a million bucks. Nor squawk for movie rights And yet-how terrible to say When they fought-there were Fights.
 Things ran along Just about the same in ancient Rome as in Chicago ! or New York today. Note. for in stance. this passage from JuvenaL who wrote 1,sO0 years ago: Such ] lawlessness prevails that ft is impos- sible for a Roman gentleman to leave his chariot unguarded while paying soclS4 NlSieS IhouSandS CT cnar1O-s have been stolen; the thieves drive 1 them away, paint them anew. and sell them in other cities, or in Rome itself" Doesn't that sound familiar? l Peace prevailed in baseball as coon as Garry Hermann found his cork screw.
