Association Is Conflicting With Newly Formed s. l. c., Secretary Writes. and Dis aSter Feared

GREENVILLE, s. C., Dec. 14.-Fac- ing what some members believe is a critical moment in it's existence. the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic as- sociation will meet here tomorrow for it's twenty eighth annual convention, of host. The meeting will last two days.
 The so-called one-year rule for col- lege athletes is the rock upon which the $. l. A. A. may be wrecked, at least in it's present organization, it is indicated by athletic representa- tiyes of a number of the smaller col leges who have been quoted as say ing their institutions would withdraw from the association rather than continue to play under this regula- tion.
 The morning session will be devot- ed largely to preliminaries. Dr. W. J. McGlothlin, president of Furman university will welcome the dele- gates. Following an automobile ride in the afternoon and a banquet at 6:30 tomorrow night, the first busl- ness session will be held. Dr. Me Glothlin is scheduled to deliver an address on some problems of col lege athletics.'
 Reasons given for possible dissolu- ton Is that the S I. A. A. Is now con- flicting with the comparatively new Southern Intercollegiate conference. The participation of freshmen in the intercollegiate games which is barred

 VieUs on Freshman Rule

was only 2O5 this year, including 25 girls.
 On the other hand, the University of the South (Sewanee), which has one of the smallest student bodies of any institution in the association, voiced the opinion through W. II. MacKellar, faculty chairman of ath- letcs, that it was doubtful if Se vance would play freshmen on it's varsity teams in future, even if the association abolished the one-year rule. There have been fewer failures in class work among freshmen, too, he said, as result of men of this class trying to make the team.
 Hns Trained Reserves
 Mir. Mackella was joined in this statement that the rule had resulted in better training for reserves for the varsity team by J. M. White of Tulane university and R. L. Sullivan, director of athletics, University of Mississippi. Southern varsity foot ball teams have long labored at a disadvantage as compared to north ern elevens by the lack of trained material, according to gridiron ob- servers, who have pointed out that only in comparatively recent years nave DlXie hlBn scnool teams been well coached. The practice of play ing high school football on a basis similar to the college game, which has been customary for years in the north. has poured quantities of we'll drilled football material into the teams above the Mason and Dixon line every season.
 Washington and Lee university and the University of Mississippi both believe the rule has injured their team this year, but that it bids far to build up the teams next season. and the University of Tennessee also fayors the rule.

By Associated Press


 ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 1.-The first season under which members of the Southern Intercollegiate association have played football without the use of freshmen on their teams has re suited in building up strong reserves for next year, but has weakened the 1922 elevens, in the opinion of a number of representative of uni versailles and colleges expressed in statements made public tonight on the eve of the associations meeting in Greenville, s. c.
 Prospects that the question of freshmen players will make the con vention one of the lveliest ever held and prediction that 1t might even cause the dissolution of the associa- ton were forecast in statements from several institutions, particu- larly from among those with the smaller student bodies.
 Chattanooga Desperate
 As far as this institution is con- cerned, the continuance of the one year rule means that we withdraw from the S. l. A. A." was the ex- pression from J. W. Edwards of the University of Chattanooga. "We can not live up to 1t and play anything like college football.''
 The question has about resolved itself into this situation: Either we must give up the S. I. A. A. or abol- ish athletics,~ said B. M. Brigham, chairman of ghe athletic board of the University of Louisville, who added there was no intention of discontinu- ing athletics.
 Oglethorpe's View
 As for next year, we will certain ly play freshmen" came from Frank Anderson, athletic director at Ogle- thorpe university, who pointed out the student body of this institution

Baseball Writers Won't Recognize Ty Cobbs .4Ol Average

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-The Baseball Writers Association of America today endorsed the ae- tion of it's New York chapter In refusing to recognize Ty Cobb's 1922 batting average as .401 because of alleged arbitrary action by Ban Johnson, president of the American league, in credlting the Detroit manager with a hit in game here, May 15, although the play was recorded as an error by the Of ficial scorer.
 Sharply divided opinion on the question existed among the writ CTS. the resolution of the New York chapter being supported by a chapter vote of to 3. New York, Brooklyn. Boston and Pittsburg chapters favored the action, while opposition was voiced by Cleveland, Detroit and Philadelphia. Chapters in St. Louis, Washington. Chicago and Cincinnati were not represented in the voting.
 
 joint major league meeting, President Johnson declined an invitation to give his VcSsion of he affair to the baseball writers meeting. but told Frederick G. Lieb, president of the association, that he would communicate with him later in writing
 "As far as l am concerned it is a closed incident" MT. John son said later. "Cobbs average stands as .4o1 and will not be changed I feel sure that when I communicate the exact situa- tion to the baseball writers they will view it in another light
 The baseball writers also com mitted themselves to an effort to have Cobb's mark put in official baseball guides as 399.

Georgia Eleuen Will
 Play Yale Next Year

NEW HAVEN, Dec. 14.-The Yale football schedule for next season was announced today. and calls for but eight games, as does Harvard's. and in conformity with the so-called 'tri- angular agreement" calls for no long trips from home.

DALLA S,Tex, Dec, 1.-The two major leagues. in raising the option limit from eight to fifteen, delib- erately defy the minors and possibly threaten baseball war if the lesser leagues, which voted at Louisville to refuse permission for the raise, re- gard the agreement as abrogated. Walter Norris, business manager of the Dallas club of the Texas league, declared tonight.
 Most minor magnates feel that the option law is the only thing the mi nors get out of the present major minor agreement he said. '"The American league has never signed it but the National has. Allowing ma jor clubs 15 option players means that the 16 teams will own 240 players in the minors instead of 12S, and these players will represent the cream of the playing talent of the minor field"

 Freshman RuIe Is Crsuse
 The feeling on the part of several colleges of the association that they are unable to support a football team without using first year men, leads Mir. Holmes, secretary, to doubt as to how the association can survive unless concessions are made on both sides"
 Continuing Mir. Holmes said that the association had been organized for thirty years and "is a pioneer in the fight for clean, straight amateur athletics in our colleges" Express ing that 1t would be unfortunate for the association with such q record should run on the rocks now" the secretary said he hoped some com mon ground may be found so that the present membership of the $. l.. A. A. may be held intact
 While preferTing not tS discuss the probability of dissolution of the as sociation, Dr. Henry D. Phillips, president of the $. l. A. A., in a statement issued in Columbia last night declared changes in the mem- bership of the association during the coming meeting are not unlikely.

The games tonight will begin at 7;45 o'clock, admission price of only 10 cents being charged i and that to help along on expenses. The Handley Memorial -Souths Baptists game heads tonight's card at the Y. NJ. c. A. Both teams won their games last week in handy fashion, and are expected to stage a battle royal for top honors tonight The Baptists have a powerful offensive that threatens to sweep the Memorial lads off their feet, but the Handley outfit has nifty little quintet. as it's victory over the experienced Hin gry Highlands" team last Friday will prove.
 The Fifth Avenue Preds, who list many Experienced gridders among their numbers, will meet the St. Johns team tonight, and will probably rule favorites to win.
 The North Highlands Methodists, who have several Birmingham South ern athletes in their roster, will meet the First Methodists. The North Iiighlansd boys lost close game to the Handley Memorial five last week, but showed enough class to cause any team in the league worry.

BUSINESS, INDUSTRY AND FL
NANCE IN UNITED STATES
Monthly Summary by Federal Reserve
Board September rs, 1922.

The chief development of the cur
rent month has been the improvement
in the labor situation. The amount of
voluntary unemployment has been
greatly reduced and wages have shown
Il distinct upward tendency. Mining
output increased about per cent dur
ing August and has shown a tremen-
dous Expansion during September,
due to the reopening of most of the
btuminous and anthracite coal mines.
The general price level has remained
constant during the month. The
August index number of the Federal
Reserve Board was the same as that
for July.
Manufacturing was slightly curtail-
ed in August but has recovered dur
ing September. Iron furnaces and
steel mills are increasing their rate
of production to satisfy the continued
large demand of railroads and auto
mobile companies. Cotton mills and
knit goods factories have increased
their output, wooden machinery is
slightly more active, and August silk
consumption was the largest for any
month since 1919. The continued
building activity has resulted in an
improved demand for lumber, cement
and other building materials.
The average condition of farm crops
declined somewhat during August.
The cotton crop has suffered severe
damage from boil weevils and from
drought. The estimates of the corn
crop have been much reduced, but the
prospects for spring wheat have con-
siderably improved.
Wholesale trade improved substan-
TALLY during August in all reporting
lines. Every district reported in
creases in dry goods sales which aver
aged almost so per cent higher than
in July. Retail trade improved con-
siderably during August and the vol
ume of business was larger in most
sections than in August, 1921.
The banks are in a strong position
and are meeting the seasonal demand
for credit with ease. This seasonal
demand has led to increases in rates
for both call and time money at New
York. European exchange rates have
generally declined during September
and there has also been a slight de-
cline in Asiatic exchanges.
