Minors Fate, Wartime Issues
Biz Baseball Session Worries

However, there are other formula
BILE problems, most confusing of
which seems to be the effect of
salary freezing upon baseball con-
tracts. The two big leagues have
had attorneys studying the rulings
from Washington and seeking official
interpretations, which they hope will
be available for Tuesdays session.
Buyer of Phils Sought.
Players salaries always have been
based on performance, with in
creases and cuts being handed out
freely and often to accompaniment
of "holdout" negotiations. Baseball
executives have been endeavoring to
get approval for continuance of this
system, arguing that there is no
other way to furnish fair compen-
sation.
The major leagues also must de-
termine upon war cooperation
plan for next season. In 1912 games
we're set aside for Army and Navy
relief funds as well as turning over
much of the proceeds of the World
Series to the USO. The Army and
Navy have withdrawn from the
sports field for contributions, how
ever, and other beneficiaries will be
considered. This problem may be
carried over to the February meet
ings.
The NATIONAL League has a pri-
vate problem in its Philadelphia
club. Of which Gerald Nugent is
president. Last year the league
loaned the Phils approximately
100000 with which to pay some
pressing obligations. hold spring
training and get started on the 1912
season without having to sell of its
best players. as had been done pre-
viously.
But the club is in dire straits
again and the league has refused
to advance additional money. Re-
Gently the Board of Directors Of the
league decided to take charge Of
selling the club and prospective buy
ers may meet with the league here.
Several propositions have been pre-
scented. including tfle removal Of
the club to Baltimore.

In Impressive Fashion
BY the Associated Press.


AUBURN, Ala, Nov. 28.-Auburn's
Plainsmen celebrated homecoming
day with Alb victory over Glenn
son today in a game that never
was in doubt. About 10000 saw the
fireworks.
1t was Auburn's game most of the
way, but in the second quarter,
Clemson almost tied the score.
Auburn scored late in the first
period. Jim Pharr intercepted a
pass on his Is and Irby ran to
the 2-yard line but Auburn fumbled
and Butler kicked out. Line plays
failed. then Monk Gafford shot
pass to Fac Jenkins, who went over.
Lou Chateau converted.
With Butler and Craig bearing
the brunt Of the attack. Clemson
edged down to Auburns' 81, Stacey
took a pass on his Is and ran to the
2 as the whistle blew for the quar-
ter. Craig went over for the score
a couple OF minutes later. An at
tempted pass for the extra point
went awrY
Auburn then scored three more
touchdowns in short order and that
settled 1t.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2S-Baseball's
most important major and minor
league meetings in a quarter of
century will be held here next week
with the fate of many small circuits
and the wartime conduct Of the big
ones to be decided.
League presidents and club execu-
tives from all parts of the country
are expected to start gathering to-
morrow, although the first business
sessions will not be held until Tues
day, when the two major leagues
convene.
In the meantime the leaders of
the national pastime will lay the
groundwork for possible player
trades and discuss informally the
problems that must be settled in the
four or five days of meetings that
are ahead.
Two of the most vital issues before
both the majors and minors, whose
National Association of Professional
Baseball Leagues opens an abbre-
Waited convention Friday, will be
what to do with players and terri
tory Of leagues that are unable to
operate during the war.
Face Problem in Salaries.
Amendments to baseball law have
been submitted that would preserve
the interests Of the present club
owners, but a wide variance of
opinion has been expressed on
whether this could be done, or how,
once league has suspended.
In addition to the sessions of the
national association. a number of
minor leagues have scheduled meet
ings individually to frame their own
programs on the basis of whatever
plans could be worked out with the
help Of the majors.
The National and American
Leagues are ready for another sea-
son and already have drawn up ten
tative schedules opening April Is,
the same relative date as In the past
This year they viii make only three
intersectional swings instead Of four
to conserve transportation.

A contingent Of five Washington
baseball club representatives will
become lobby loungers and terrific
takers starting Tuesday at Chicago
when they attempt to make the Mats
a more potent American League
entry at the winter meeting of the
major leagues.
Already on the scene are Manager
Ossie Bluege and Scout Joe Cambria
and leaving for the meeting tomor-
row night will be President Clark
Griffith, Secretary treasurer Edward
B. Eynon, jr,, and Calvin Griffith,
who will figure in discussions con-
corning the Mats minor league in
terests.
Griffith admittedly will converge
on Chicago with the idea of obtain
ing players. Il want an outfelder,
third baseman and a pitcher"
confesses Griffith, but indications
are he also will be seeking first
baseman and a second baseman.
mo, I won't trade Dutch Leonard
unless I get an awfully good offer
for him. I'm not going out there
with the idea of trading him.

buy.

I'll stick with my catching staff
Of Jake Early, Angelo Giuliani and
Odell Barbary. Barbary has been
turned down by the Army due to a
trick knee, and Early and Giuliani
are family men. What I want most
is third baseman."
To obtain What he wants, Griffith
may be willing to 60 high, even to
the extent of parting with Leonard,
who is getting no younger and who
started only five games for the Mats
last season due to broken leg suf-
fered on April %.
Griffith may have trouble locating
that outf1elder. Bruce Campbells
enlistment in the Army Air Corps
leaves him short in this department,
with only Stan Spence, George Case,
Gene Moore and Bobby Estalella
available, but harder pressed are the
Chicago White Sox. Their only out
field holdover from last season is the
veteran Wally Moses, so they'll be
among the spirited bidders for Bob
johnson, the AS power hitter whom
Connie Mack wants to trade.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. %. - Notre

arch football rival, in q rough and
bruising game today that ended In
a free-for ali between some of the
players and a large group Of spec

Record Crowd Disappointed.
The biggest gridiron crowd of the
year, $4,000, surely must have been
disappointed in the game as an ex-
hibition of football.
The first touchdown, a 48-yard
pass and run, Bertelli to Creighton
Miller, was the bright spot in an
otherwise drab contest.
Notre Dame had only a slight adj
vantage in total yardage gained but
capitalized on its two scoring
chances. whereas the Trojans blew
the two opportunities they had.
The one sustained march of Frank
Leahy's boys led to the second
touchdown. Corwin Clatt, Miller and
Livingstone spanked the drive, start
ing on the Notre Dame 20, and when
Southern California stiffened on the
9, Bertelli shot a bullet pass to
Livingstone, who went 5 to the goal,

1t was the third straight victory

Leahy commented that it was the
first time in the series that the game

bad they had to happen. But our

Illinois Easily Knocks Off
Fort Knox 10 Wind Up
Successful Season
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ROCKFORD, ILL.,, Nov. 2s.-1lli-
nois closed its most successful foot
ball season since 1884 here today
with an easy 20-to-0 victory over
Camp Grant before 5000 customers.
Illinois pushed to two quick
touchdowns in the first period and
casually added another in the third
for their sixth win in 10 games.
Fumbles and penalties kept the IL
lini from rolling up score in the
final quarter.
The Warriors, slowed by a leg
injury to Stan Stasica, found it
useless to ram the Illinois line and
resorted to passes. RENO Nori,
Mickey Anderson and Frank Alonzo
completed II Of 20 thrown and once
travelled by air to a touchdown only
to have a penalty nullify 1t. Other
brief Camp Grant spurts begged
down within sight Of the goal.
Capt. Jimmy Smith, Don Grimm
and Tony Butkovich, on the other
hand, ran through Camp Grant at
will. Griffin scored on a 34-yard
sweep of right end two plays after
the Illini had taken the ball on
their own 40. Mccarthy converted.

Michigan Grinds Out
Victory Over Iowa
In Stiff Contest
Huwkeyes Fight to Last,
But Wolverine Power
Tells in 28-l4TiIt
e, the Associated Press

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Nov. o.
Michigan unfurled it's vaunted grid
iron might, mixed 1t with cunning,
and marched over an battling
Iowa football eleven for a 28-14
Western Conference triumph before
20,643 spectators today.
Always dangerous, never quitting
and displaying dazzling aerial
game, the Hawkeyes made two
rapier-like touchdown thrusts in the
second half, but they were too little
and too late. Michigan took the lead
in the first period and never gave
it up.
Fleet Richard Hoerner, who never
was kept in any kind of corner for
long today, galloped IS yards to a
touchdown with Michigan's second
half kickoff, the most spectacular
play of the afternoon.
Michigan Grinds Away.
All the while Wolverine power,
grinding with the same sureness that
brought Coach Fritz Crisler three
earlier Big Ten victories, was taking
its toll.
A 59-yard march in the first
period was eliminated by Tom
Kuzma's 6-yard drive for touch
down. On the next kickoff Al Wis
teri, a glorious tackle today, bounced
on Charles Uknes' tumble and the
wolverines drove 30 more yards,
with Bob Wiese scoring from the q
yard stripe.
Fifty-one yards were consumed in
10 Michigan plays in the fourth
period, Paul White prancing across
after a dipsy-doodle lateral from
Bob Chappius on the 3-yard line.
To cap the climax, Substitute End
Chuck Kennedy scooped up Bob
Wiese's tumble on the 2 and scam
pered over for fourth touchdown.
Uknes Redeems Himself.
Uknes, the goat of Michigan's
third tally, had redeeming moment
in the fourth quarter when he
blasted through tackle, caught his
feet and rambled AZ yards for a
final HaWkeye touchdown.
Jim (Old Monotony) Brieske
booted four extra points for the
wolverines and Tom Farmer made
his two placements good.
The victory shot the Wolverines
into tie with Illinois for third place
in the Western Conference standing
and left the Hawkeyes stranded
with a league record of three vic
tories, three defeats.
