ment and between one thing and an
other, mostly the later, they might be
expected from time TO time to regard
one another slightly askance or
maybe askew, but Mr.. Mack said to-
day they wouldn't. It seems he has
solved the problem of pleasing every
body and affronting none by the sim
pie expedient of letting Cobb,
Speaker and Simmons to go into a
huddle to decide amicably just which
OF the three fields they prefer to
adorn.
Speaker already has informed me
that he stands ready to play left
field. II Simmons prefers to remain in
center" Mr.. Mack said. However,
this is something they will have to
settle among themselves. All of
them are fine outfielders and fully
capable Of playing any OF the three
fields, 30 any alignment they agree
upon will be all right with me-"
Frankly, he probably has his
own preferences but, at that, 1t
10 likely he has decided he would
rather have peace in the family
than Speaker In center field.
This, IL true, takes care Of Speaker
and Simmons. But Cobb Is yet to be
placated. He hasn't appeared in
camp yet, having been given permits
sion to remain in Augusta until late
this week, but 1t is known that he
holds some definite ideas about just
where he should play and, so far,
no one has been able to discover any
valid objection to the gentleman's
theories or to his practices, either.
The fact of the matter is that Cobb
doesn't want to play right field. This
isn't mere caprice. He feels that he
can give a much smoother perform
ance In center, an idea that was
more or less sustained in 1927. He
proved a poor right fielder but a
good man in center.
However, as Mr.. Mack claims, this
isn't a problem he faces, in fact, he
has no problems. The outfit is just
as sound as it was last year, which
means there is really nothing to be
done except to let nature take it's
course. The Athletics had good
club then; they probably have a bet
ter one now.
Connie cites four reasons why he
thinks this is so, the first Is Speaker.
"Tris still Is a great ball
player" he says, with the fer
vOr of a zeaIOt. There isn't
use of going into details. It is
obvious that we can't go wrong
on him."
Reason No. is the fact that
pennant talk is strictly taboo at
this neither end of the peninsula.
At least that is that understanding.
Maybe the bootlegger comes around
on Saturday night with brief case
fun OF idle gossip, just off the boat,
but officially all talk of remnants is
out like an ex-window.
It ruined our chances last year"
was Comics comment today. "The
boys thought that all they had to do

vited all his unpires to meeting
in Chicago. They went into ses-
sion, discussing problems facing
them all over the circuit. Pres
ident Barnard spent most of his
time listening. Out Of that meeting,
which continued through two days,
a program has been adopted look
ing to better methods of handling
ball games during the coming sea-
son.
"For one thing" said the new
American League chieftain today,
II shall endeavor to speed up the
games. Neither side will be per-
mitted to delay ball games in any
way. don't want to see games
ending anywhere from two hours
to two hours and a half, as has
been the case in recent years. The
fans have q right to kick when an
ordinary game takes two hours and
fifteen minutes to be played.
another situation has been
remedied by the adoption of
ground rules for each city that

We found that rules were made

''If the visiting club had long hit
ters. the home club demanded fewer
bases on hits in certain sectors. This
was changed in the following series,
provided the next visiting club had
fewer long hitters. In other words,
there was some jockeying.
Next summer ground rules Will
be made for each park, and they will
not be changed thereafter. Every
visiting club will play under the
same conditions, which is as it should
be.
Nothing radical viii be done.
Speaking generally, Mr.. John
sons system Of supporting his
umpires strongly will be con-
tinued to the letter. On the
other hand, the umpires will be
held strictly accountable for the
lightest form of service.
"The umpires themselves during
our meeting in Chicago figured ont
many ways Of speeding up the
games and their suggestions have
been adopted. Batsmen will be re-
quired to stay in the batting box
and not roam all around. Pitchers
will be compelled to pitch without
fussing around too much. Useless
tossing of the ball around the in
field will also be curbed. We simply
must end these tWo-hour ball games
in the American League, that's all
there is to that"
President Barnard is touring the
training camps of his clubs. He will
remain here until Monday when
he will go to st. Petersburg to visit
the New York Yankees.

Coach Ken Simondinger always
has his troubles at Gonzaga and the
baseball proposition is no exception.
As were the cases with football and
basketball, Simondinger finds that he
lacks seasoned players. Remaining
from last year are but two players,
therefore the Purple leader must find
seven others for the gaps.
Tom Brew, who held down first
base, and Al Farrell, who labored on
the hill, are the leftovers from last
