Settling Tie Score Battles
by Judges Gains Following

yardage statistics of the game. 1t
has been suggested that such deci-
sions by judges also would make
the try for point after touchdown
unnecessary. The point after touch
down has many opponents who con-
tend that too much emphasis now is
placed upon this test of individual
skill.
Efforts to legislate against the
point after touchdown have failed
principally because of the belief
that its elimination would result in
more frequent tie games. This OBJ
lection would be removed under the
new plan.
The experiment of deciding tie
games by judges was sponsored by
E K. Hall, chairman of the foot
ball rules committee, who arranged
the charity games for the owen D.
Young committee on unemployment
relief 1t is believed the new plan
will be given serious consideration
at the winter meeting of the rules

The Chicago White Sox and New
York Yankees are expected to com.
plete player trade this week. and
it looks as though Tony Lazzeri will.
be a prominent figure if the trans
action goes through.
On the Sox side, the guess is that
pitcher Bump Hadley, recently Of
Washington, may be sent on to New
York. Anyway, the new Sox Off
Gals are ready to continue the bust
ness of changing their lineup They
made two trades last week, with
Washington and Boston, and also
purchased outfelder Harold Ander-
son from ST. Paul.
Other Deals Forecast
New York scribes have a bunch
there will be something doing be-
tween Yankees and Washington
and Yankees and Browns. The New
York team makes an offer annually
for pitcher George Blaeholder of the
Mound City Americans. The Goth
am writers seem to think Tony Laz-
zeri will go to Washington instead
of the SOX. The Chicago sessions
also may see the transfer of Hack
Wilson Of the Chicago Cubs. So far
only small money has been offered
for the pudgy fly chaser.

system. possible abandonment of

Salary Cuts in Order
Minor league officials meeting at
West Baden, voted approval of set
ting maximum salary limits for
players Major club owners are not
expected to adopt this move, but to
favor reducing salaries as each club
sees fit from Babe Ruth down to
the newest rookie"
Complaints, especially from Ma
tional League clubs, have been made
against the practice of using three
umpires in a game and the mag
mates are expected TIC consider seri-
ouSly a change in this rule.
Radio May Be Banned
Radio also will be fully discussed.
Whether to ask pay for broadcasts
of games, to require sponsors not to
use their names in connection with

involved.
