EORGR LAM SON,
Walthill. Neb.. Indian
heavyweight believes
in "safety first, last
and always."
The husky Indian t
scheduled to meet Mr
Andy Schmader ir a
10-round bout at the
local fight shed. Satur
day night. Lam son is a former
Omaha "pug" and white in this fair
village made a lot of friends and at
the same time made a host of
cnemys, why, no one knows. But
Lamson would rather remain in
Lincoln, his present home, until the
afternoon of the fight. Of course,
this is against the state boxing law,
but Commissioner Doyle has granted
the Indian permission to stay in Lin
coln until Saturday afternoon.
Rogers Ilornsby, best hitter in the
National league, says American
league pitching cannot be compared
with that in the National and that
the American has but three good
pitchers, Carl Mays, "Red" Faber and
Stanley Covelcskie.
Before making his decision Horns
by should have studied the averages
and consulted a " few American
leaguers whose duty it is to face this
class of hurling.
Roy Thomas, the old Philadelphia
outfielder, will be back in the ma
jors next season. The fortner star
ball player will be assistant manager
to Rranch Rickey of the St. Louis
Cardinals.
President Al Tearny of the West
ern league voiced the opinion of
Barney Burch, half-owner of the
local club, when he announced last
night that the Minors wanted a rul
or law that prevented a major club
from drafting a player from the
Minor leagues and then disposing of
this same player to a league of lower
classification than he was drafted
from and at a priee far above the
draft mark. s
The majors reap a big harvest of
greenbacks each season when they
draft players from' minor leagues and
then sell him to another club. In
most cases, the player is sold to a
team which is a member of a league
lower than that from which the
player came. The player is not as
sisted any in advancing by this
method.

Rogerjs Hornsby Rivals Bambino,
Ty Cobb, Speaker, Collins and
Sisler in Swinging Ball Bats
.The National league boasts one. of the greatest ball
players of all time, one who rivals Tyrus Raymond Cobb,
Tris Speaker, "Babe" Ruth. Eddie Collins, George Sisler and
other great stars who draw their fortnightly pay envelopes '
from the American league clubs, in the person of Rogers j
Hornsby of the St. Louis Cardinals.
The official batting averages of i the total of Frank Frisch and Dave
the National have just been released
for publication, and this fellow
Hornsby stands out ' like some of
those new-fangled lace-bedecked
stockings that the sweet young
things are wearing, among a lot ot
the old cotton variety; when com
pared with the other players earning
their salaries in the Heydler organ
ization. It's true some of the Na
tional leaguers scintillated in differ
ent departments, but none of them
held even a-4im candle to the in
comparable Hornsby.
First of all. Rogers participated
in every one of his teams, 154 games.
He was at bat 592 times and scored
131 runs. He also cracked out 235
hits for a total of 378 bases, which
netted him the healthy batting aver
age of .397 and ultra-healthy slug
ging mark of .693. Now stop for a
minute and ponder on the accom
plishments of tlws fellow Hornsby.
First of all, his hits. 235 in umber,
exceeded the best efforts of all his
rivals The same can be said for his
143 extra base bits, netted via the
double, triple and home-run route.
His 131 rnns was also the high
atcr mark, being 10 in excess ol
Midget Boss
Of New York
Signs Contract
Major League Mogul Believe
Draft Will Be Restored
In Organized Base
Ball.
Chirac TrtbaM-Omah Bee Iwl Wire.
New York, Dec. 15. Miller Hug
gins will lead the Yankees next sea
son. After some days of conferring
with Colonel Ruppert and Colonel
Huston, the two owners ' of the
American league champions, the
midget manager came to terms and
ligned a contract today for one year.
Before the official announcement
was made, there were various ru
mors that Huggins would not be
back as boss of the Yankees. It was
said that the two colonels could not
agree on the matter, that Ruppert
wanted Muggins at the terms asked
and that Huston balked.
That the draft will be restored in
base ball seemed quite likely, judg
ing from action taken by both ma
jor leagues, but it may not be pos
sible to change conditions until aftet
another season has passed. After
discussing the proposition set forth
on the previous day by President
Ebbets cf the Brooklyn club that
the majors refuse to buy any players
from leag-ies rejecting the draft
the National league adopted a reso
lution submitted by President Herr
mann of Cincinnati:
"Renolverf. That r reel dent Heyiller
a a member of the arivlnnrr muiM-H
lie Instructed to preeent to hl col
league! In n Joint anuiion of Ameri
can, National and minora, a itropoat
tlon to amend the major-minor (agree
ment ao na to re-eslabllnh the draft."
Americans Pisa Resolution.
Almost at the same time, the
American league magnates were
taking action on the same issue by
passing a resolution as follows.
"Remlved, That Judge Landlii, aa
eommlmloner, rail a meeting of th
advisory council for the purnone of
proxlng dome way to amend the
preaent major-minor agreement ao us
to ra-eatabllah the draft."
Judge Landis, himself, who ar
rived fronj Chicago in the morning,
stated that it was his intention any
way to call a meeting of that body
for that very purpose, so it looks
as if all are of the same mind.
The minors may have a strong ob
jection and may be powerful enough
to prevent any change , until a gen
eral meeting of all major and minor
clubs could get together for a vote
on the matter, which might carry it
over for another year. However, in
the end, the draft is pretty sure to
be ' restored, which will mean that
ball players will not be blocked in
their chance for advancement.
Old Dissension Exists.
That the old dissension still exists
in the American league was shown
in the election of a board cf directors
for the coming year. The league
secretary announced that the new
board would consist of the presi
dents of the Detroit, the Washing
ton, the Philadelphia and the St.
Louis clubs. Later it was learned
that Colonel Ruppert, as head of the
New York club, 'had been elected,
but immediately resigned, declaring
that it was the turn for President
Comiskey of the Chicago club or
President Frazee of the Boston club
to serve. The members then elected
a fourth member in President Navin
of Detroit, ignoring Ruppert's plea
for Chicago and Boston. All of
which means that the vote in the
American league is five to three..

Hornsby led in doubles with 44, was

shy of the mark of George "Home

Landis May
Modify 'His
Ruth Order
May Allow Rutli, Meuttel and
Pierey to Accompany
Yankees ou Spring
Training Trip.
(fly International Nan Berrlce.)
New York, Dec. 15. Before Judge
Landis ipsiie the official order bar
ring "Babe" Ruth, Bob Meusel and
Iiil! Piercy from participating in
championship games with the Yan
kees until after May 20 of next year
he probably will modify it to permit
the "Three Musketeers" to accom
pany the team on the spring training
trip and to take part in exhibition
games before the regular season
opens. i
An agreement of this sort will
greatly relieve the present situation,
which is causing some embarrass
ment. While the owners of the New
York' club assure Landis of their
support in this case they are facing
a heavy loss, which may be greatly
lessened if the judge will consent to
a snring armistice.
Even then the players would lose
their world's series money and more
than five weeks' salary, amounting
to a few thousand more, but the club
would have them trained and ready to
go on as soon as the suspensions are
lifted. Such a compromise is no more
than fair to the club owners, though
there is little comfort in it for the
real transgressors.
May Tone Down Order.
Judge Landis is not altogether fa
miliar with conditions governing the
control of major league players on
training trips. When he imposed his
sentence on Ruth Jie probably esti
mated the total damage as a loss of
pay from April 12 to May 20, plus the
world series money. It is believed
that he will tone down the official or
der by permitting the players to con
dition themselves next spring at the
New York club's expense, but with
out any salary returns.
Once the Yankee colonels can con
vince the judge that a spring training
loophole in the Ruth verdict will
satisfy them, their task will be to
persuade the three players not to
take any legal steps toward recover
ing their world's series money, which
amounts to more than $10,000 and is
now held in escrow by the national
commission.
Ruth, with a big salary dangled in
front of him and other inducements
pointed out, may consent to drop his
claim to the world's series prize. This
money could be made up to him in
other ways. But Piercy, who doesn't
expect to be with the Yankees next
year anyhow, and Meusel, whose in
come does not begin to approximate
Ruth's, probably will not yield so
easily. Meusel has already declared
himself. Regardless of his future in
base ball he will go into the-courts

Would End Their Career.
There isn't much doubt that the
three players ran force the commit
tion to hand over the tenet cash, but
inch action would end their caieeti
in organized bate ball.
There are many perplexing anglet
to the Ruth decision. For innUiue,
suppose Judge Landit decides the
players can play ball on a training
trip. Will lie confine their ball play
ing to mere scrub games or will fie
permit these men to participate in ex
hibition games where admission it
charged and the Yankees meet major
league opposition?
The Yanks, after deducting heavy
expenses, cleared about $30,000 on
their training trip last year. Without
Ruth as an attraction they could
easily lose that much. A decision
keeping Babe out of the spring exhi
bition games will start the club off
with a lost of $50,000 before the pen
nant tace begins,
