Auckland Geddes, the British ambas-

the British government in the deben-

II Is likely to change the whole
American League race" said Connie
Mack when he discussed the situation
with the writer recently.
How
Because it will unquestionably un-
settle the team which finished second
in 1922 and will change the plans of
every manager in our circuit. I Ger
tainly wouldn't play my team against
st. Louis with Sisler out as / would
play II with Sisler in. That doesn't
mean that I wouldn't always play the
best and strongest that ! had against
ST. Louis any time, but ] figure that
/ would he able TO open up and take
more chances if I didn't have TO play
against an almost perfect first base
man. a .406 batter and one of the best
base runners in the game"
That seems to be a cogent analysis
OF the situation. for any time the old
sage OF Philadelphia isn't thinking
out base ball problems the chimes
in the belfFy have rung the curfeW
and he is sound asleep.
Base Ball Needs Sisler.
When Ty Cobb began to condition
the Tigers he had no thought that
Sisler might not play ard he didn't
wish TO entertain one. Ty has broad
ened wonderfully these days.
What are We going to do without
him." Ty said when 1t was suggested
that Sisiev was in lar worse shape
than St Louis sources Of informa-
tion would admit. There was not 4
thought in Cobb's mind for himself
or for the Detroit team or for any
thing except the league TO which he
belonged and of which Sisler also is
a member. I'VE can't spare Sisler
He is one of the most wonderful
players In the game. and they don't
grow them fast enough nowadays for
the younger generation to take their
places.
Affect us? OF course it will. How
can any base ball circuit not be mod
flied when il loses a player like Sis
ierc Wasn't the National League
changed when it lost such men as
Ewing and Anson? ! know base ball
history well enough to know that
their loss not only upset the clubs to
which they belonged but that all the
clubs of the National League missed
them. The individual must play his
part in base ball. Don't you suppose
that all Of US know that Ruth made
a difference in drawing spectators to
American League games? I guess j
would not be far wrong If I included
National League games as we'll, for
everybody gets something out of it
when the fans find Il big show to see
and can make comparisons according
ly."

BASKET BALL CHANGES
HIT STAR FOUL SHOOTER

NEW YORK, April 11.-New rules
governing basket balls the most i'm
portant one eliminating the special
lied foul shooter, were adopted at
meeting OF the joint rules committee,
attended by representatives. of the
Amateur Athletic Union, the National
Collegiate Athletic Association and
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton
The rule affecting the specialized
foul shooter prescrfbes that when a
personal foul Is called against play
er the man against whom the foul Is
called must make the free throw.
Technical fouls are to be shot by any
member Of the team.
During the past season, when per-
sonal foul was committed within the
goal zone. two fouls were called, re-
gardless of whether the man had pos
session OF the ball. The new rules
state that two free throws Will only
be granted when the player has the
ball in his possession within the goal
zone. or when the player Is in the act
of shooting for a basket outside Of
the goal zone.
