Iiornsby of the ST. Louis Nationals
is another major league player in
the California Winter League. He
was given permission to play be-
cause his club management is afraid
of him. He is of so much Importance
to the Cards that they do not wish
to cross him prior to the season to
come. because St. Louis has a belief
that with him they may win the
National League championship in
1922
Had Hornsby been refused permis-
sion he would have called attention
to the fact that other players of
prominence were going to California
to take the matter into his own hands
by playing with the winter league
whether he had permission or not.
Injury to Players Feared.
More ball players are engaged in
winter sports this season than for a
long time. and the owners who guard
their athletes so JealOuSly are fear
full that some of them may be in
jured before the regular base ball
season begins. To try to prevent it
clause was inserted in the new
contracts to put an end to winter
sports. but the players have their
noses in the air these days, and when
to Cobb and want to know why they
cannot pick up penny or two If
he is to be permitted to go to Cali
fornia and gather a handful of dol
lars.
Cobb did not go to California with
out the consent of the Detroit club.
which was very likely not hard to
get, because Cobb for wears has done
about as he pleased so far as the
Detroit owners were concerned.
National League owners do not
care to say anything to the other
league about Cobbs Independence.
because great pains are taken these
days not to invoke any of the back
fire of comment which was so freely
EXPRESSED in the past, but. just the
same some of the owners groWl
among themselves and want to know
if there ever will be time when
there will be uniformity in base ball
regulations

WINTER LEAGUE PROVES
TO Be FINANCIAL FROST

SAN FRANCISCO. Calf. Decent mber
2.-Approximately $4,000 will be lost
by owners of clubs in the new Cali
fornia winter base ball league during
its ten-week season which closes De-
cember s, according to estimates by
league officials here. Lack of patron
age is given as the reason.
The league is made up of four clubs
representing Los Angeles, Vernon. San
Francisco and the Mission district of
San Francisco. Four major league
stars. Rogers Hornsby, George Sisler.
Ty Cobb and Harry Heilmann, are
pilots of the teams. The other players
are from the Pacific coast base ball
leagues.
Owners of the winter league clubs
are identified with the coast league
teams. At the opening of the season
they took out insurance against rain
and this cut down their losses. for
rain has caused .cancella ton of thrr-
teen games here to date, and one in
Los Angeles.

GREENS FEES EXEMPT
FROM TAX, IS ruling

: Greens fees are not taxable. This
ruling from the Treasury Department,
which will be of interest in golfing
circles throughout the country, has
just been made by A. c. Holden. act
ing deputy commissioner of internal
revenue. His ruling was made at the
request of W. D. vanderpool, secre-
tary of the United States Golf Asso-
citation.
Z The meaning of the 1917 act as re-
ttating to greens fees has long, been
q subject of doubt among officers of
clubs throughout the country. Be-
cause of the absence Of a definite rul-
ing in the matter, some of the clubs
belonging to the u. S. G. A. went
ahead and collected the tax until 4
later ruling from Washington reversed
the order.
The new ruling means that those
clubs which, through failure to un-
derstand the previous regulation.
failed to collect the tax. have nothing
to worry about, whereas those which
did collect the tax will be caused more
or less Inconvenience. Fortunately.
however. large majority Of the clubs
never took action.

building opposite the Western Pacific
depot, was suspicioned of selling
liquor In violation of the prohibition
laws. and early in May of last year
his place was raided by the state po-
lice, but nothing Of an discriminating
nature was found at that time. On
May 25. 1920. Deputy Sheriff Lamon
and District Attorney Castle went to
his place and again made search
this time finding a pint bottle half

tom of the stove. Economy was ar
rested. The sentence for this crime
is not less than sixty days in the
county Jail and 500 fine. nor more
than one year and $1,000 fine.

NEyEN TRIAL STOPPED BY
ILLNESS OF JURYMAN

The trial at Reno of James IL.
Neven for the alleged murder of Mrs.
Eta Hanna on the evening of Feb
ruary 3, Unexpectedly came to an end
yesterday and a new trial was begun
this morning. The illness of Juror j.
M. Blakeley. who was stricken with
nervous affliction after Tuesdays S
adjournment. precipitated situation
unparalleled in the annals of Ne
vada courts. With a new juror to
take the place of the sick man, the
eleven remaining in the box will hear
over again the evidence already ad-
duced by the state, and the second
trial will proceed. Technically il
was mistrial and to avoid repeti-
tion of such a situation an effort will
be made at once to give Nevada a
thirteenth juror law, similar to the
one frequently invoked in important
trials in California.
