OHICAGO, December IL
The business end of major
~ league base ball began
warming up today for the
annual meetings and trading ses-
sions which officially open to-
morrow morning.
During the sessions which will
last for the rest of the week, the
magnateS will consider such
problems as radio broadcaSting Of
games and a standard ball for
all leagues in organized base ball.
These items will be considered in
formal meeting, but player deals
will be tackled wherever and
whenever interested parties can
get together.
If all the player deals brewing on
the various hot stoves are accomplished,
some kind of a record is likely to be set.
In the American League, based on cur
rent rumorS, almost every one interested
in player sales and trades will be try
ing to do business with Connie Mack,
manager of Philadelphia's Athletics.
Mack has hinted that as many as five
Of his stars may play elsewhere in 1894,
and there is plenty of cash-bcaring in
terest in whatever he may have to offer.
Almost certain to go is George Earn
shaw, right handed pitcher, who failed
to get along so well at Philadelphia last
season. The Chicago White Sox are
reported to be first in line for Earn
shaw, there being a possibility that
Catcher Charlie Berry and cash may be
used to get him.

NEW YORK, December 1.-THE
~ Ottawa Senator's feat of climbing
into third place in the Canadian
division of the -,ationai Hockey League
after being reported on their way out
of the circuit provided the feature of
last weeks big-league ice campaign.
The Senators won two games and
moved up point ahead of the Mon
treal Maroons in the standing.
The much-d -denied>tale was enough to
see Ottawa wallop the league-le leading
Toronto Maple Leafs 4 to l. They con-
tinued last night by taking an easy
5-to-2 triumph from the Americans.
The Maroons, after gaining a 1-to-1
tie with Detroit at Montreal Tuesday
went on the road and dropped 3-to-1
decisions to Chicago and Detroit.
Detroit's victory put the Wings back
on top of the American division after
Chicago's Blackhawks had come up to
tie them with Thursdays victory over
the Maroons. The Hawks suffered 10
setback at Toronto Saturday in their
second game of the week when Chuck
Conacher, Leaf wingman, bounced the
only goal of the game into the cage off
Brother Lionel's shoulder.
Despite their setback at Ottowa, To-
ronto's Leafs increased their Canadian
division lead to points over the Mon
treal Canadiens with two victories in
three games. In the first they won
from the Americans by 9 to l for the
biggest score of the season.
The Amerks lost all three of their
games.
Boston walloped the flying Canadiens
Tuesday and went on to beat the
Amarks and reduce Chicago's margin to
single point.

MAJORS UNLIKELY
TO SET PAY LIMIT
American League Opposed to
Move-FuII Program for
Chicago Sessions.
BY JOHN B. FOSTER.

N 1EW YORK, December IL
Nj There has been talk on the
i Y outside about the posi-
bility of a fight for a sal
ary limit in major league base
ball when the big men of the
national game get together in
Chicago tomorrow for their an
nual meetings. But no such sugges-
ton comes from the inside nor
would it be likely to receive se=
rious consideration if some one
should bring up the proposition.
A salary limit applying to only one
league would raise all sorts of hula
baloo. The American League always
has been opposed to the idea and the
National League has had troubles
enough in the past trying to enforce a
limit.
4 A matter of fact it would be very
n hard to fix upon any limit when
one club pays its star performer
S50,000 year. That is one of the rea-
SoilS why tle prayers, partlcularly lnOSe
of the American League, have been
pleased to see the Yankees spend young
fortunes year after year on Babe Ruth.
They feel that the salary market gen.
orally is influenced and they applaud
the Babe for his smartness in getting
a sizable share of the money he draws
at the gate.
There is considerable business ahead
this year for all three meetings-the
American League, National League and
the joint commission. Both Of the
leagues have adjustments of their af-
fairs for the past season and prepara-
tions for the season to come, while the
commission must tackle legislation to
meet demands coming up from the
minors, who recently held their con-
vention at Galveston.
TT IS assumed that the new head Of
the Cincinnati club. Larry McPhail
will be acceptable to the remainder
of the National League. In fact. he
will have to be, as he represents about
all of the stock of the club, which is
held by a Cincinnati bank 1t is a
queer thing about Cincinnati 1t has
been one Of the leagues trouble spots
practically ever since it became a part
of the circuit. Only in 1919 was the
club real financial success. That year
Garry Hermann made more money
than ever has been made by base ball
in Cincinnati.

NAVY HAS ANOTHER

Holds Hard Schedule Plan
Best-PIays to $4,000

\ The hard foot ball sched-

A NNAPOLIS, December Ii
~ The hard foot ball sched-
"A ule principle has been
voted a success by the au-
thorities of the Naval Academy
and will be continued indefinitely,
the schedule for 1884 paralleling
that of the past season, probably
the hardest undertaken by any
college team.
Not only did the Navy team show
definite improvement last season In the
foot ball it played, but its players
came through the season in hne physi-
cal condition and the team drew the
largest gate of any Eastern college ag-
gregation. The latter, OF course, means
a handsome financial return, which is
not unimportant.
As Navy entered the Army game,
after having met four powerful op-
ponentS on successive Saturdays and
Princeton just a week before, but two
members CT the squad were incapaci-
tated. These were Gordon Chung Hoon,
a halfback, who had a sprained
shoulder, and Dave Millers, end, who
had a ruptured tear duct, and it hap

received in practice.
4 SKED if he thought Navy's chances
~ in the Army game were injured
by the strain of the Princeton
game, a week before, and the other big
games, Comdr. Harvey E. OVeresch,
graduate manager of athletics replied
with an emphatic negative. He stated
as his opinion that the work of the
Navy in the Princeton game gave it
| confidence and had much to do with
its fine showing and close score against
Army.
Last season Navy played two fairly
hard games and then met Pittsburgh.
After playing Virginia next. it met
Pennsylvania, Notre Dame, Columbia,
Princeton and Army on successive Sat-
urdays, probably tougher assignment
| than undertaken by any other team.
| Yet it played good foot ball in all Of
them, and finished the season in good
physical condition.
Though Navy did not meet with the
highest degree of success, it showed
very definite improvement. It won
from Pennsylvania and Notre Dame.
| defeating three other teams, and played
| close games with all other opponents
except Pittsburgh. 1t is felt that the
big-schedule plan offers way towards
steady improvement and share of VIC
tories against the strongest opponents.
NF THE 1888 opponents, the Navy
I will play William and Mary, Vir-
ginia, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame,
Pennsylvania, Columbia and Army next
year. 1t also will play Maryland, and
in place of the Princeton game, team
of about the same standing is eX-
pected to be scheduled, so that its task
will be along the lines Of the past sea-
son.
Navy played before 350,000 people
during the season OF 1888. Next year,
it plays Columbia in New York City,
Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Notre
Dame in cne CT the great Middle West
tern cities and Virginia in Washing
ton. TIE place OF the Army game has
net yet been s-'ccted. but will assemble
a great crowd wherever PLAYED The
home crowds are also increasing great
ly. Pitt and Maryland will play at
Annapolis.
