TALK OF THIRD MAJOR LEAGUE AGAIN REVIVE
Tennis Assn. to
Dampe1n Stars
Y Literary Efforts

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-Action to
curb the literary activities of star
players, and, perhaps to subdue the
liberal element headed by Bill Til
den and Winnie Richards, has been
proposed again to the United States
Lawn Tennis Association.
The amateur rule committee of the
association will ask approval at the
annual meeting of the association
of a new Interpretation of the anna
teur rule which will prohibit players
from writing for Substantial com
pensation' after January |, 1925.
This rule, while no names or in
dividual cases were mentioned, OBJ
viously Is directed at Tildcn and
Richards and just as obviously it
will cause those two players to pro
test the invasion of private and per-
sonal rights.
From a positive source, it has
been learned that Tildcn intends to
write just as long as he can find a
market for his friction and his tech
nical articles regardless of any rule
that may be passed against him.

/ lNOBLEMS ARE;
NOT COMPLICATED;
X. c. LIKELY SPOT
Independent League
Would Have Trouble
Getting Players
BY HENRY J.. FARRELL
Omitted Press Snort Editor)

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-Prcdiction
that third major league is sure to
be organized at time not very far
in the future has come again from
sources of qualified authority.
Nothing beyond an opinion,
which is very good one, however,
has been found to substantiate u
belief that the field is becoming
too large for the National and
American Leagues to supply.
Since it is an established fact
that organized baseball is too well
fortified, financially and geogra-
phically, to make it possible for an
outlaw league to intrude, it is log
ical that organized baseball will
form third league when the invest
ment assumes the size of a sound
business proposition.
If Boston and st. Louis are able
to support two major league ball
clubs, it would seem reasonable to
figure that Cleveland and Detroit
would be good fields for continuous
baseball, and Cincinnati, with such
a good territory to draw from might
be interested in another club to di-
vide affections with the Reds.
Kansas City Likely
Baltimore has been pretending
major league proportions for several
years, and Kansas City is looked up
Oh as fertile spot for some of the
big major league money that is fig
uring on the future.
Another ''Federal League
would not 90, because the sad oxper-
fence of that last venture would re
strain the investment of any capital
in another attempt to test the
strength of organized baseball.
The tremendous expense or organ
izing an Independent league, repre-
scnted i'll building parks, is nothing
compared to the problem that would
arise in getting the players for six
or eight new cubs.
The major leagues, however,
would encounter no such insur-
mountable obstacle as only a few
new parks would be necessary and
the National and American Leagues
might be able to spare enough play
ers to form the nucleus for the new
clubs.

BOwdoin HOckeyists
Working at Soccer

Bowdoin College. Nov. 3.-Bow-
dom hockey candidates are playing
on the soccer field twice week to
get into condition for the strenuous
season which lies ahead of them. Ben
Hauser. coach of both hockey and
soccer, was a former soccer player
in Pennsylvania and is taking this
opportunity to instruct some of the
Bowdoin men in the fundamentals of
soccer and at the same time get his
hockey men into running condition.
Hockey promises to have sue
cessfui season here this year with
eight and possibly nine letter men
back on the ice. For the first time
in the past few years. the hockey
men will have a coach to instruct
them in the game. AS the main
fault Of last years team was not the
lack of ability. but the lack of team
work, Bowdoin students believe that
this years team will be successful.
Capt. Howard b. Preble OF the
hockey team has issued a notice to
all hockey men that they must re-
port at the soccer field twice a week.
or they will not be allowed to con-
tend for the hockey team when the
ice arrives. 1t is expected that next
Thursday nearly all the veterans and
many new men will be kicking the
soccer ball around the field.
