BIG LEAGUE UMPIRE
TRAINING CAMP AID
SAYS BOSTON BRAVE
One Place Where Arbiter Is
Welcomed Is in Spring
Camps in South.

New York, Feb. 2S.-F'red Mitchell,
manager Of the Boston Braves, is cred
tied with some interesting remarks on
umpires. 1t is the time honored belief
that umpires and hallplayers are kept
from each others threats only by the
most strenuous efforts, but there is
one time, anyway, according to Mitch
ell, when the big league Jump" is well
coined. That is on the spring training
trip. Not only is This honor the jumps
welcome, but he is actually an aid, says
the Boston manager.
Need Them There
There ought to be an ironclad rule
making it necessary for ]. big league
the south every spring for training
Whitman in Boston. TT is a great
thing for the umpires and an equally
fine thing for the players to have the
big league umpires work in these spring
games"
Mitchell says there is no question in
his mind that the umpire after the
winter vacation, needs the practice to
get his vision adjusted once more to
the task of calling balls and strikes.
And Mitchell says that it is equally
an advantage for big league batter
to have the umpire along.
His Judgment Aid
"The batter in the spring needs a
big league umpire with a good eye and
good judgment. Bush league umpiring
in the south in the training trip days
has hurt the early batting of many
a good hitter"
Mitchell's viewpoint is logical. 1t
stands to reason that a big league
IL L.
does not gain the advantage of spring
practice at maxim EN- pitch He
doesn't have the advantage Of good
Judgment behind him, and it would
naturally affect his own judgment. The
remarks of Mitchell present an inter-
esting angle to the taking of big league
umpires south with ball club.

SKATING SQUABB[E
SHOWS F|R|NER HAND
NEEDED To GOVERN
Heavy Betting at Big Meet
Cause of Charges Made in
East, Is Claim.

New York, Feb. 2S.-Hughie Fuller
ton says it seems as If none of our
sports can get through season with
out argument Or scandal. The con-
slant squabbling in skating this winter
has been q bit disgusting, and the
charges hurled back and forth during
the national. international and the
diamond medal meets show one thing,
and that is that skating needs a firmer
and more powerful government. The
accusations made against officials and
against associations, charges which do
not fall short of actual dishonesty,
ought not to be permitted. If the
to clean house.
AS usual, we find that heavy betting
is the cause of the charges. The open
charge made that an official in one
meet wagered heavily upon one Of the
racers should not be permitted to go
unnoticed.
Skating has become too important as
a winter sport to be ruled by any COM
paratively small section. The atten-
ton of the A. A. Z. is to be called
to a charge hurled around among the
skaters that the amateurs are forced
to skate in certain events under threat
that, if they do not start, their ex-
penses viii not be paid.
1t was charged that some of the
western amateurs baked upon starting
in one event, claiming unfairness on
the part of an association. and that
they must skate or pay their own eY-
penses. and that being few thousand
miles from home, they submitted.

Majors to Discipline
Minors for Opposing
Draft; No Exhibitions

New York, Feb. 2s.-The baseball
minor league magnates appear to be
short-sighted. The club owners of the
class A. A. circuits--the international
league, American association and Pa
cific Coast league-who have refused
to accept the $500. draft rule pro-
posed by Commissioner Lands, repre-
senting the majors, soon may learn
something to their disadvantage.
While the major leaguers are not re-
vealing their plan of action, it is hint
ed that unless the drafting system is
accepted before the middle Of March
all exhibition games between the majors
and class A. A. teams will be Cancelled.
The class A. A teams have cleaned
up many thousands Of dollars from
these exhibitions, thereby enabling
them to meet part OF their yearly ex-
penses. But they seem to have COM
pletely lost sight Of this important fact
and are counting serious trouble. BY
hitting the minors pockets the majors
plan to bring them to terms.

FOOTBALL COACHES
IN MAIN CONTENT
WITH GAME RULES
Those at Meeting Called by
Camp Think Qualification
All That Is Needed.

New York. Feb. 28.-Some of the
greatest football coaches in the coun-
try answered the recent invitation is
sued by Walter Camp and attended
meeting to discuss the rules OF the
game, at the Biltmore hotel. Though
many suggestions were Offered Tor
changes in the old rules and still more
that new rules were needed, the gen
eral feeling among most of those active
in the football world is that the present
code is sufficient.
It was contended that while the
rules are satisfactory in the main that
Qualification is necessary in some in
stances to clear up number OF dis
puted points.
The legality of the shift, developed
to a high point by Knute Roche and
the Notre Dame eleven last fell once
again was the center Of much discus
sion-real storm center of the meet
ing-while other minor points, includ-
ing the abolition Of the goal from
touchdown, a modification of the for
ward pass rule and other favorite
points, over which an argument can
always be started where football men
gather, were threshed out.
TO Avoid Tumble
Among other recommendations made
to the rules committee for action were:
That as soon as the ball is carried
over the goal line or a forward pass
is completed behind the goal line, a
touchdown is scored. This does away
with the possible tumble when man
is tackled over the goal line.
That the interpretation of clipping
as made last year be embodied def
nitely in the rules and the rules COM
mittee strongly consider the advisable
ity of increasing the penalty.
Many other suggestions concerning
illegal substitutions, directing OF play
from the sidelines and the right of an
offensive end to step over the side
line and back again to receive for
ward pass were discussed and passed
over.
1t was moved and carried, however,
that the committee should make some
recommendations in the code to secure
men on the chain as assistant linesmen
who are not partisan.
Sanford Has Scheme -.
Foster Sanford threw a surprise into
the meeting with recommendation
that might be considered epochal by
those who failed to note that the Rut-
gers coach had his tongue in his cheek.
The rules, he said. should be changed
to permit the coach personally to di-
rect the attack and defense of his
team on the field. ''It's hobby of
mine," he said. land I'd like to see it
60 through. Then it would be easy to
tell just how good coach is, for he
would no longer be able to abb him
self by shifting the blame on his quar-
terback."

TO'CALL OUT TROOPS

Governor Ritchie does not take
kindly to the suggestion of President
Harding that he stand ready to pro-
vide State troops as an aid to the re-
opening of the bituminous coal mines
closed by the nationwide coal strike
He so stated in a telegram he sent
the President late yesterday afternoon
in reply to the message of the Chief
Executive.
In the first place, the Governor says
he has not found that the Maryland
mine owners want to reopen the
mines at this time He has been in
quiring about the situation since he
received the Presidents message sent
to the Governors of all the coal min
ing States. He finds, in substance
that the coal mine owners see no good
reason for trying to operate their
mines so long as there is a railroad
strike, which prevents their getting
cars for the hauling of the coal
The Governor urges that the Presi.
dent renew his efforts to settle the
strikes - railroad and mining - by
peaceful means. and concludes with
the statement that he has no sympa.
thy with lawlessness.
