of famine suffering from Samara it.
self. The villages far in the country
are desolate in appearance and the
starving can be seen in almost every
house in some of them. Samara,
though still far from prosperous look
ing. is a paradise beside the tiny com
munes.
Six months ago. starving refugees
haunted the streets of Samara and lay
in filthy heaps by the river bank beg
cling and praying for bread. Now one
has to go out and hunt for the starv-

! lost kittens that they are hungry and
want bread stand with drawn faces at
the windows Of cars at the railway sta
tons. These, however, seem to be
only professional beggars like those
who always have haunted The churches
and other promising spots for aims in

posal that Brennan should meet the

term that Brennan applies to Greb.
Want to See Dempsey.
OF course. crowd would flock to

Brennan. not because they would
have any idea of seeing a battle of

fights, and lot Of fans would pay to
see him.

nan get into the ring with him for
Ave rounds, then Madden, then Capt.
Roper. then Fred Fulton and then
Bob Martin. Anyone who lasted the
Ave rounds would get certain big

SOL|DLy AGAINST DRAFT

CHICAGO. January 26.-Club own
ers Of the American Association have
declined to enter into any draft
agreement with the major leagues.

the draft. carrying with 1t a price of
$500 for each player drafted. was
unanimously voted down at q special
meeting yesterday. The major leagues.
il they desire to obtain star players
from the American Association clubs,

dent of the National League. and Ban
johnson of the American League,
constituting the. base ball advisory
council Judge Lands held that
restoration Of the draft was neces-
sary. SO that base ball players could
advance in their profession.

second of the three class A. A. leagues
in organized base ball to reject the
proposal for restoring the draft. The
Pacific Coast League voted it down
at its meeting several days ago.
The International League, accord
ing to base ball leaders here, is ex-
pected to follow suit.

FOR SECRET PAY PACT

CHICAGO. January 26.-The Phila-
delphia Nationals have been fined 5000
by Judge X. NJ. Landis. commissioner Of
base ball. for entering into a secret
agreement with Outfielder Earle Neale,
who presented a claim for $500 back SAL
ary. The claim was allowed, but Neale
also was fined 500.
When Neale signed with Philadelphia
last spring a secret agreement was
made in which it was stipulated that he
would be paid to the end Of the season.

to Cincinnati and the existence of the
secret agreement did not become known
to the Cincinnati officials until month
after Neale reported.
The Cincinnati club declined to pay
him for the entire season, but he was
paid for the period he remained with
the club.
In another decision the Chicago
Americans have been ordered to pay the
Sherman. Tex. club $3.50 for Charles
C. Robertson, who was purchased in
1917. Only $3.50 Of the purchase price
was paid at the time and 1t Was agreed
that the balance would be paid II
Robertson was retained after May 10,
1918. Robertson was sent to the Min
neapolis club under an optional agree
ment instead Of being returned to Sher-
man..
RUSSELL Pence. formerly a member Of
the Chicago Americans, who left the
club last season because Of his physical
condition, has been reinstated.
