Question of BroadCasting
. 80. .~
-. Games Up Before Joint
:, Session Tomorrow.
BY WILLIAM J. CHIPMAN,
Asaoeiated Press sports Writer.

"a YEw YORK, December 1.-THE
IN question Of shortening sched-
VI ules was the most important
- business before the meetings OF
'-Afs-' the National and American
leagues today. The National League
the shorter season, and o poll OF the
..rival circuit showed the Barnard mag
mates also ready to vote afdrmattvely
upon q September 2S closing.
Both leagues today were ready TO take
up the question of broadcasting regular
league games, but this issue, ike the
:. schedule matter, doubtless will be finally
decided only at the joint session to-
The chief item before the opening
session of the two leagues yesterday
was that of requifing clubs purchasing
franchises in smaller circuits to make
formal report Of any such transaction
to Commissioner Lands, TO the two
> major leagues and to the National Assoc
citation Of Professional Base Ball
Leagues. Commissioner Lands put this
question before the magnateS, pointing
out that since such reports now were
% made Of individual player purchases.
such action was even more necessary
when an entire team Of players was
acquired.
Commissioner Lands plan is not re-
taken to prepare q record Of interlock-
ing ownership interests now existing,
for the guidance of all base ball The
National League magnateS acted favor
= rAbly upon the commissioners plan. but
deferred definite decision until the joint
meeting tomorrow. The American
League believed the question could be
better solved by restoring the universal
draft.
The National League adopted a
memorial resolution praising the work
= of the late Col. A. @. Mills as president
of the circuit in 1888 and 1884,, Col.
Mills died at his Summer home on Cape
Cod last August. Cullen Cain was
named public relations counsel Of the
league for the next three years.
.s7i The National League elected a direc-
'1Eorate composed of Barney DreyfuSS of
Pittsburgh, Charles S. Stoneham of
New York, William Veeck of Chicago
and Emil Z. Fuchs OF Boston. The
: shift Of American League directors pro-
vided for In the constitution brought
into ONCE Jacob Rupert OF New York,
Robert Quinn OF Boston, Alva Bradley
Of Cleveland and Charles Conliskey Of
Chicago.
The vexing. deadlock among warning
factions OF the Brooklyn club of the
I National League was broached only in
President John A. Heydler's report to
ethe club owners. President Heydler
merely said that he hoped "the two
factions would meet" AS matters stand,
,IWilbert Robinson cannot be ousted as
president by the McKeever interests,
but can be deprived of his job as man
,.ager. Since Robinson himself could
create q deadlock onfthe question of a
new manager, 1t Is unlikely that he will
be Ii1olested.

LITTLE TO ATTACK
PRO4OWANS MAKE
Big Ten Says Chicago and
Northwestern Not Guilty
as Charged.

By the Associated Press.
~HICAG 20, December 11.-A
pair of unofficial counter
attacks on the athletic conduct
~ OF Western Conference schools
have been made by University
of Iowa sympathizers, but have resulted
In no casualties.
Charges made by pro-Iowans having
no connection with the University OF
Iowa against Northwestern and Ohio
state resulted In Big Ten offlcialS say
ing that the charges were investigated
months ago and the schools cleared.
In two Anldavits published in the
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Gazette-Repuoli-
can it was charged that Elmer Marek,
former star halfblack at Ohio State,
and Frank Baker, end on the 1923
Northwestern eleven, had gone to those
schools because of financial induce
ments. It was said Marek was to re-
cO'e 5000 a month at Ohio State, but
Mai. John L. Grimth, Western Confer"
ence athletic commissioner, said investi-
CATION had revealed that Marek worked
his way through school. The afndavit
ia the Marek case was made by Jess
Blake of Cedar Rapids, where both
Marek and Baker attended high school.
Baker May Have Boosted.
Baker was charged by Charles d.
Hadlock Of Chicago with having re-
ceived all his meals without charge,
but Mai. Griff1th said investigation
showed Baker worked for his meals In a
restaurant and unquestionably was
boasting when he told Hadlock he did
not pay for them.
A renewal of the investigation into
the status of Oran Pape, Iowa halfback,
who twice was cleared of professional
foot ball charges during the past season,
indicated Iowa still has its eye on re-
instatement to Western Conference
favor. Pape, according to information
turned over to Iowa ofncials by Prof.
James Paige of Minnesota, is charged
with having played Semi-profeSSional
