der Leonard championship contest will

in which Vinccnzo Maddona, paired
with George ColombattO. will attempt
to redeem himself against Clarence Car
man. who is to have Percy Lawrence,
of California. as his partner.
While there will be four bikers on the
track, the real race no doubt will be
between Carman and Maddona. Last

straight heats of match race. To-
morrow nights event will be an hour

he will surely have upset the dope.
Another big feature on the program

PLANS DRASTIC ACTION
BY WILLIAM s. DALLAS


THE Philadelphia Baseball Associa-
L tion is arranging the details for the
championship series to be decided In the
near future.
-''The plans are not MS vet complete.
said President George r. Cartwright.
''but the committee Is working them
out and may report at the next meet
ing. which will probably be some time
next week.
''.Just what will he done this season
is uncertain. The championship games
in the West are played on large scale.
This is particularly 20 in Cleveland.
where I was located for n number Of
years.
''Organized semi-pro baseball has
been conducted, there for about twelve
years. All l want to say IL to give
us twelve yeafs in the game in this
city and we will be fur ahead Of our
Western competitors;
President Given Power
At meeting of the Board of Gov.
ernors several cases Of disOrderly con-
duct at local fields were discussed. The
Board of Governors debated the mat :
ter at length and then gave the presi- :
dent full power to act In such cases.
umpires are to be notified to report
overt acts OF, players. Some of the tao
ties adopted lately have been outrageous.
and the president was a witness to the
same.
You will just bet that some
birds In this locality will warm the
bench long while in the future IL they
attempt anything like I have witnessed
In the last few weeks" said Cartwright.
The president IL not picking out any
particular club. and made IL plain that
he did not care who the offender was,
1t looks as II, the bigger they are the
harder they fall Is the motto adopted by
Cartwright. Some fellows will be out
a months pay il they attempt any of
the stuff that has been pulled recently.
No Scraps With Umps
The president entertained a commit.
tee OF the United umpires and informed
them that he was in hearty sympathy
with their organizatiOss.-and that the
Philadelphia Baseball Associat ton held
no grievance against them.
The. fact that one Of their number
registered as an umpire in the associa
tion did not have anything to do with
their membership in the United Umpires
as FAR as be was concerned, and he In :
formed them that any men who regis
tered would receive employment pro-
vided the association had It.
The United Umpires were under the
impression they could not join the Phil
adelphia Association and hold member
ship in the United at the same time,
but Cartwright cleared this misappre-
hensiOn.
The Bridesburg Club protested a game
played at Chester last Friday when
they were beaten in the ninth--score
to 4. The. score at the end of the
eighth was 4 to 0 in favor Of Brides
burg. Chester has been ordered to re-
play the game on Bridesburg's next ap-
pearance there. the contest to begin
with the ninth inning.
