American league to control the vale of

The resolution adopted by tba American

"Keaolved. That the American league
.will continue to exerrleo Ita prlvl,B
and observe lie obllgatloni under tb ua.
tlonal agreement, but will decline to have

Whst doea It rnaen?" President l-V1-"
asked after reading It over twl.e. "The
American league never had any official
Intercourse with the National league out

national agreement requires It to. Ho far
as world's' aeries ticket are concerned,
the National commission for the first
time gave the clubs this year (he full
right to sell tickets to the world's so lies
games In their respective cities. What
ll the result? Kvery newspaper In the
country knows of the scandal which fol
lowed. The Philadelphia club, under the
rnlttif of the commission, had control of
the tKKt l In that city, yet the com
mission ha found that the scalpers were
busy there, too.
"Now. as to the lent few lines of the
resolution. I can't understand how the
American league ever could assuino re
sponsibility tor the conduct of the busi
ness department or auy other department
of th National league or any of Its clubs
on their home grounds."
Was Mot Ksiierteel.
There was a lofig discussion of the
resolution before the American league
adopted It. F. J. Farrell of the New York
club Introduced It and C. A. Comlskey
of the Chicago club seconded It. The
vote was unanimous and copies signed
by Ban Johnson were sent to President
I.yiuh of the National league and the
National cvmmlaion. liarney Dreyfuss
of the Pittsburgh club and other National
league men who were seen toulght seemed
to hold the opinion that the "break" did
not threaten a base ball war, pointing out
that It would not Involve working rela
tlons of the national agieement. Drey
fuss said: i
"1 have enly seen the statement casu
ally and I hardly know what it all means,
but I think you will find that base ball
will go on the eame as ever. I'm not
tiiu b worried about It."
Aftarinatk of the ticket scandal caused
more than one sensation today. Second

waa the Interest attached to the making
public of a peppery letter written, by John

Task Assistant to Johnson.
To President Johnson tho American

was given full power to act for the league
on the request of the International and

in a hard-fought game with plenty of
feature (he Tiger Cube quintet trouncod
the Haven five by the score of 18 to I
last evening at the Young Men's Chrla
llun association gymnasium.
The Cubs outclassed their opponents at
all times and displayed much better team
work, especially on the part of Hughes
at right forward and Utirkenroad at left
guard. The Tiger Cubs rolled up a score
of 10 to I In the first half and were also
able to keep up their start In the second
half, when they held down the Havens
to six points.
Burkenroad, at left guard for the Cubs,
waa easily the atar of the gamo and
brought forth much applauxa from a
small, . but. enthusiastic, . gallery. He
scored five goals, all of them difficult,
qpe of them being from the middle of the
floor, Carson at center also played a
consistent game.
Hltchle showed up well for the Havens
at center and had he had belter support
from his team would undoubtedly have
been able to run up a large score all by
himself. Hoblnaon. a member of last sea
son's association quintet, put up a hard
game t right guard.
The game waa marked throughout by
rough playing oil the part of both sides,
but was Interesting, nevertheless. 1L l.

If the concentrated eftorts of over 100
Omaha alumni of the University of Ne
braxka count for anything, Omaha la to
have one of tha big Cornhusker foot ball
game In the fall of 1912. At least that
was the outcome of the meeting Tuesday
night at the Millard hotel, when the l'Ml
Nebraska foot, ball team and "Jumbo"
ritlehin ond "Dog" F.ager were guests of
Omaha membeis of the Nebraska al'imnl.
Fourteen of the letter, men .were In at
tendance at the meeting last night, end
but for the absence of Capt.Jn-elcct Jerry
Warner every regular of the team would
have been present. '
Jerry Warner, cnptain-cloct of the
Cuinhtixker. did not ' accompany the
team because he had - been called home
by lit father. lie was not In Lincoln
yesterday' when - he was unanimously
elected leader tor next season.
Mtampeue lor Lsark.
The team did not arrive at Ihi Millard
until about 7 o'clock. The grab dinner,
as It was billed, was piled on one long
table. Huge plies of sandwiches, pickles
olivet and salad graced thla long festive
board. When the rlgnala were given to
push the lunch counter, a regular stem
pede followed and in less time than It
would take for Captain Shonka to plow
through an opposing team's line the table
had been cleared and substitute dishes
were ordered from the side lines, only to
meet the same fate as the former piles.
The whole herd of foot ball players and
toot ball supporter wa turned loose In

lege spirit, Line plunges and tackle back

Shonka, Bob Manlcy, Owen Frank, Re
gent Coupland and Hurry Tukey. One
and all favored the playing of a big game
In Omaha next year.
A letter waa read from Chancellor
Avery, who expressed his hopes that one
game of tho 1V12 foot ball schedule would
be played in Omaha. Bob Manley said
that he was -of the opinion that a game
could be played outside of Lincoln that
would be In accordance with the -confer
ence rules, providing the team which Ne
braska played here was not a member of
the conference. 'Manager Eager, however.
said that no game could be played by a
conference team unless ' It was In the
town of the. conference Institution, but
brought to light one ray of hope which
had been overlooked by everyone when
he said that part of the University of Ne
braska was In Omaha, and therefore a
game may be played In Omaha and the
Cornhuhkcr team still be' living up to tho
conference rules.
Coach Sllehin expressed himself as be
ing favorable to a game In Omaha next
year and urged that Omaha alumni use
their efforts get Qmaha . High school
