 Ended by Court

Washington, Oct. 1O.-Rehearing. was denied by the Supreme Court to- day of the case brought by the Balt- more Club of the defunct Federal Lea que against organized baseball in which the Court held that professional baseball as played under the present National agreement does not possess the attributes of interstate commerce.
 The baseball case reached the Su- preme Court after the Baltimore club obtained in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia a verdict award ing it triple damages under the Sher- man Antitrust Act against the Ma t1onal and American Leagues, oper- ating under the National Agreem ent, on the grounds that the Federal League had been disrupted as g re- suit of a conspiracy in violation of the act. The Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia reversed the de-. ciSion and set aside the judgment.

Bush Regrets Outbu1-st.

Joe Bush appeared during the day and told newspaper men that he re- gretted deeply his outburst of temper on the pitching mound, Sunday.
 My action was a great injustice to Huggins,'' he declared. "I acted like a schooIboy, and l want to be the first to admit it. I always have had a temper, and it gets the better of me now and then"
 Having made this manly retribu- ton to his manager, Bullet Joe" went on to discuss the strategy of the move.
 Nobody in this world will ever make me believe that the best move was to pass Young and pitch to kel- ly,'' he 4aid. "Of course. there is lot to be said on both sidess and can see Higgins side of it perfectly. But figure that if, after eleven years in the big leagues, I still don't know how to pitch, I never will know. Kel- ly had been hitting me pretty hard. On the other hand, I was absolutely sure that Young would not hit me.
 '4Another thing, with first base empty I could have worked on Young. tried to make him hit at bad balls and perhaps succeed. If I failed, there was first base open for him to go to on a base on balls. But with the bases full, I had to pitch to kel- ly. I couldn't waste any, and the second ball he hit for a single. I'm not a second guesser. I kicked be- fore Kelly even came to bat, and kicked harder after iU was all Over.

Al Lippe, manager of Js& Smith. n Q letter to the sports editor of the Bridgepor Times, has denied @ story alleged to have been circulated by Al Iennings, De1aney's manager, that Smith ran out of a match with the ocai battler. The letter follows:
 New York, Oct. g. 1922.
 It has just been brought to my notice that Jack Delaneys man ager has descended to falsehood in order to gain a point for his brand the statement that Jeff Smith ran out of a match with him as being utterly false with out the vestige of facts or foun- dation- The facts of the mat tRf are that Smith is scheduled w box in Portland, Me. on the night of October 12, the date which was offered to me by Jack Doherty of Providence. As it is an utter impossibility for Jeff Smith to be in two places at one time I had to decline fhe offer. I did not ask time for Smith to train, Smith does not have to train, as he is always in the top notch of condition, and further more he would not have to train for Delaney.
 Smith has never sidestepped, he has never run out and his active brain is engaged in other direc- tions than the manufacture of alibis. Smith stands alone among the fighters his weight in the world today. He has fought in every country in the world and has met the worlds best men his weight. In nearly seven hum dred battles he has never heard the referee count even one over

 This is the first bout of a fa1I and winter campaign mapped out by Man ager Joe Smith which calls for battles in Boston, New York and other fistic centerS.
