HB Denver Post nilikes a plea for
T
peace and co-operation In the
Western league -between Pres
ident O'Neill and the magnates,
pointing out how essential this
In to
would
success and how disastrous it
be to prolong the dissension
now existing. This Is a timely plea.
The Post well points to tho con
ditio of the National league as a result
of SBb such strife and the superior
strength and,-stability of th6 American
league as a-rpstilt of unanimity between
team owners and' Uie league's executive.
It refers to the plenary powers vested in
Han Johnson as the greatest element of
his league's success and suggests that
as long ' as' O'Nelli Is president iof the
AVestem' league Hiirf his contract lias
three years hi run-'he Is entitled to the
fntlre support of the magnates. The'Post
htiB well said. Now. let It go Into execu
tive session with Owner McGlll of Den
ver, whose two pennants seem to have ill
affected him, and' convert' htm' 16 Its
vlow and ours. The, Post Intimates that
O'Neill has "It in for McGlll." Wo doubt
that. We think that If McGlll hod not
helped to engineer that little trick to oust
O'Neill and the headquarters from Chi
cago, there would be no troubfe now,
and McGlll and Ills, co-conspirators can
not Justify ' themselves In this action so
long as Its success would have repudiated
the league's pledge to the president,
woul(,have annulled as far as tho league
could a legal' contract will, (hrce years'
to run. The Post is right again when It
says that If any such changes must be
in ado. let them bo-made after President
O'Neill has served out the term for which
ho was elected. And McGlll and the rest
of them cannot get back of that. If it is
peace, Utiey want, lot ' them occe'pt- that
proposition and go along right. And if It
is peace Denver wants, let it stop sub
mitting, propositions to 'resident O'Neill
to transfer his headquarters to that city.
That Is the way exactly not to get peace,
and harmony. Denver Is a most charming
city with its, salubrious summer climate,
but It !b location, not climate, needed fri;
tho matter of tho league's headquarters.
Tlicy belong In Chicago, they, are In
Chicago, they should remain there. There
would bo about as much Benso in moving
them to Denver us to any other city Iso
lated from tho conter of activity in the
base- ball world.
Lajole. tho great second baseman and
slugger, is asked to' accept a cut of 13,600
off Ids $10,000 salary. Hero Is an examplo
to inspire young men. Lajole is 33 years
of aie. with apparently a few years of
excellent service left him on tho ball'
field,, though post his prime. At least,
Cleveland considers him good enough to
draw J7.B00, which Is far above the aver
age, especially for simply playing with
out directing a -team. For seventeen
years he has been a premier and drawn,
it Is 'said, In that time $100,000 in salary,
nearly $6,000 a year. This is relatively
jnoro when It is remembered that seven
teen, sixteen, even ten years ago, the
larger salaries were not as numerous as
they aro now. Being a frugal man, the
big Frenchman probubly has well In
vested hlsjnonoy. Xle Is only one of many
rich young men on the diamond. Not such
a badprospect for a youth who has It in
lilm. Is it7t But Lajolo, like the great
Wflgner, could not have lasted bo long

man." There's unother source of insplra-
tlon
This, talk of Chance holding out for
the highest salary ever asked by a man
ager, plus a percentage of receipts, does
not spund good. We hope It does not
mean ' a barrier that might prevent

NKW YORK, Dec 2S. That Americans
in the Philippines are responsible for the
vast Interest In athletic In tho east, na
evidenced by the announcement that Ju
pan, China and other sections near the
American colony in tho Pacific ocenn
will bo. strongly represented In tho Olym
pic garne,s In. Berlin n 1916, In conceded
to be tho result ,of the appointment of
Major Palmer E. Pierce, United Statrt:
army, now located In China, and form
erly president pf. the'Natlonal Collegiate
.Athletic association.
Among followers of athletics In this sec
tion who are well awaro of Major Pierce's
allegiance to up-to-date and purely nma'
tuer games. It is granted that all such
will receive a great uplift with his en
couragemehl. as he In a strong believer
In physlcul cultures In all its forms.
Tho Philippine Athletic, association,
which has been doing a great amount of
missionary wprk In apd about Manila,
where the high schools under American
domination, have taken up sport on up-to-date
liner, has paved the way for the
furtherance of athletics In a new section
of the world.
This organization has como forward
with a proposition for a series of bien
nial games fashioned after the Olympic,
to be open to all countries In the east
to be held In turn In the capital cities
.of .the countries named, which Include
six districts, namely, Japan and its de.
pendencies, the Philippines, North China,
with Its center at Shanghai; South China,
wljh center at Hong Kong; Malay
Peninsula, with center at Singapore; and
Slam.
Power' Is to be taken to admit for
mally any Asiatic-Pacific territory not
Included In tho districts named above
When It la deemed .advisable. It Is pro
posed to hold the first games In Manila
next year and tho second series In Toklo
In 1916.
I.Iat of Proposed Event.
The proposed list of events is as follows.
and it Is "noticeable that they are at
distances and sports usually named In
the American championship, vie: 100
yards,, 220 yards, 440 yards, ES0 yards.
ono mile, five-mile road race, 130 yard
hurdles, 220-yard low hurdles, standing
high Jump, running broad Jump, polo
vault, discus, (free style), and shotput.
Two relay events are also named, theso
being at 220 yards and 440 yards for each
man of a team. A pentathlon, consisting
of running broad Jump, shotput, 220 yards.
discus (free style) and one-mile run, and
tho decathlon, 100 yards, running broad
Jump, shotput, running high Jump, 440
yards, 220-yard low hurdles, discus (frro
style) pole vault, hop, step and Jump and
one-mile run will also be decided.
In swimming events will bo 100 yards,
230 yards, 440 yards, 880 yards, ono mile,
103 yards back stroke, 220 yards breast
stroke. 400-yard relay, and plunging for
distance. The cycling will consist of a
ten-mile road race. Thcro will also be
gentlemen's and ladies' singles at lawn
tennis, as well as the following games:
base ball, volley ball, (teams of fifteen)
foot ball (association) and basket ball.
The clause In relation to those eligible
to participate Is apparently far reaching,
reading as follows: "The Olympic con
tests will be confined strictly to amateurs.
The general definition excludes any per
son who enters a competition for money,
accepts a money prise, sells or pawns
his prizes, Issues or accepts a challenge
for money, accepts a free membership or
remission of dues or other reward for
becoming or continuing a member .of an
athletic organization, leaches, trains or
coaches In any athletic sport for money,
or enters a competition under a falxe
name. The term money is used In its
broadest sense, and Includes Its equiva
lent or anything in the nature of a mone
tary consideration."

NEW YOIUC, Dec. 2S. AVlth the excep
tion of ono or two occasions when ho
was not wound up to concert pitch,
Georgo V. Honhag of the Irish-American
Athletic club, has for tho last eight yeare
held tho center of tho stage on which
tho long distance runners perform. H
was not until the Inst season that am
bitious youngsters began seriously to
threaten his supremacy, and now there
is the liveliest interest as to which of tho
promising .aspirants will occupy tho
throne which tho old champion must of
necessity soon obdlcate.
Three men aro In line for the distinction
outside of tho Invading Finn, Hann-s
Kolehmuinen, who enn scarcely bo con
sidered an American as yet. They aro
Louis Scott of Paterson; William J.
ICramer. Ixmg Island Athletic club;
and Harry .1 Smith, an unattached
nthlnie wlm will coniDeto for tho Ilronx
church house as soon as his term of
probation expires. Each of these, has his
strong point and experts are greatly puz
zled when asked to predict the one that
will shlno above his fellows next soa-
son.
Krnnier Xvxi to IIiiiiIiiikt.
Kramer is perhaps the best known of
the trio nnd he has long been n thorn
In the sldo of Honhag. Whenever tho old
champion was a trifle off fornutho Long
Islander could bo depended upon to fin
ish In front of him arid two years ago
Just after Bonhag had, broken the five
mile American record, Kramer defeate'l
lilm In tho five-mile national champion-
ship ut New Orleans. It was n year be
fore . that that Kramer first began to
show ability to travel a route, with the
best of them. Starting as a Junior he
won the Me troiiolltun title for that divi
sion In February, 119. In November of
the same year he annexed the Junior na
tional tille and followed that a week or
so later by romping home In, front of the
best cross-country men In the senior
national championship. With thn exoep
tlon of tho following year when F. G.
Dcllars leat lilm In tho senior event,
Kramer has orrrlod off all the rhmplon
ships In this Hue and stands supreme
In hill and dale work.
Special qualifications nre required for
crofs-country work and Kramer's defeat
of Kolohmalnen In the recent ohainplon
ship, set tho seal on his greatness In
that respect. It remains, however, for
him to prove that ho is equally capable
over a flat eource before he can osplro
to Ilonhag's erown. His ndhorents wore

been considered Douhag's greatest rival.
Kramer mado Ills triumph completo by
reeling off a string of record figures
from five and a quarter miles to 10,000
meters.
Then came tho slump for the Long
Islander. Sent to Stockholm us tho most
fancied long distance runner on tho
American team, tho pounding ovor tho
hard track at Cambridgo told its tale,
and whllo abroad Kramer brok" down to
hopelessly that the experienced Mike
Murphy predicted he would never run

speed on tho track that made him so
feared before the Olympics cannot bo
foretold, but by dint of excellent care he
came backln tho cross-country champion
ships and won both metropolitan and na
tional titles in hollow fashion.
Krutt In Another I'uisxlr.
Louis Scott Is' another puzzle, for sinew
he 'appeared as a rival of Bonhag ho has
shown brilliant form, at limes, only to
fall -when his Hdmlrcrs were confident
that ho would outstrip tho field. Several
times ho was supported to defeat the
Irlsh-Amorican crank, but In tho pinch
the old war horso maintained his su
promncy until tho present season. With
Honhag out of tho raco Scott won his
spurs by defeating a big field for the
national ton-mllo championship a year
go. He ran away from Kramer nt tho
finish and covered the dlstanro In
E3 :20ft.
This season the Paterson lad was nt
tho top of his form d Uttlo before tho
proper tlmo and ho reeled off a record
for E.OOO meters at the post office clerks
games at Celtic park on May 24. Then
camo his defeat by. ICramer, and when
ho failed to show any real Hpecd at
Stockholm there was a genefal Idea that
lie hiul shot his bolt.
Scott did Uttlo after his return from
Sweden, but gradually getting In condi
tion, furnished a surprise when ho broKe
nonhng's American record' for four miles
In a race, late In the fall at Celtic park.
He was nn overwhelming favorite for tho
It'ii-mllo race In whlrh his tltlo was at
stake on October 26. but again hn showed
a streak of unreliability and In the fin
ishing sprint Harry Smith ran away from
the tltleholder. Whon In condition Scott
runs with more dash than any other
American runner now in the harness,
and with a tltlo nioro oxperlence Is sure
to make the best of them hustle.

Harry Smith has been running In the

Game of Base Ball
Played Year Around
PITTSBUIICIH. Pa., Dec, 28. Base ball
may soon be an all-year-round sport, for
you can now play it wito. a root ball.
The new friend of the magnate and tho
professional player' name, is Prof.
Uenscoter of the WIlkes-Darra High
sohool. As Inventor of the new gam.
he axplalns It as follows:
"A base ball cannot be easily held by
players In cold weather, hence the need
of a game with the larger, clumsier foot
ball. It Is played on a base ball dla
mond, with thn same number of a players
on a side, the most notable difference
being that them Is no pitcher; this
player occupies tho position of another
shortstop 'right shortstop' between first
and second.
"Tho ball is put Into play by being
kicked from He homo plate, and tho"
runner hikes for first, as In base ball,
and Is put out M the passing of the ball
to first ahead him, as in baseball, or
being touched v it In the hands of a
player.
"The runner may not advance from a
base when the ball has benn passed to
the baseman who touches the base while
the runner t there; this debars the
riitnier from advancing from the base
until' it has been again kicked out; It
likewise debars uny runner back of lilm.
Tho kick mav be of nny sort place,
punt or drop kick. The runner may be
declared out if ho advances from the
base before the ball is kicked out. If
the ball Is kicked foul the kicker Is out;
he Is also out tf ha falls In an attempt
to kick,
"The game Is very lively, being full of
conatant kicking catching and passing.
It develops strength, speed, accuracy,
skill, and with less liability to accidents

Will Make an Efforts
to Place Boxing on
Legitimate Basis
NEW YOUK, Dec. 2S.-A determined
effort to place boxing on a legal basis
will be mnde by followers of pugilism, In
Chicago 'at the next meottn'g of th6
Illinois legislature. No less than 'thr6
bills are belnr drawn up to be presented
by different sponsors. One bill Is modeled
along the lines of tho Frawley law of this
state. It calls for a commission of three
members, ten-round bouts with no de
cision, and a percentage of the receipts
to go to the state.
Another of the bills favors six-round
contests, with decisions to be given. Only
cllibs of standing organized under tho
corporatlo'u laws of tho state are to be
granted tcrmlts under this measure. It
also provides for a commission to np
point an officer In each city to bo in
charge of the sport.
Thn third bill places the control of box
Inc In the hands of . each municipality,
with local option an to whether permits
are to bo granted. Tho mayor's veto on a
permit would be final.
it Is confidently expected that the new
administration will pass at least one of
tljese bills. One of the leaders In the
movement Is Barratt OMInra, lieutenant
governor-elect. He, himself Is a devotee
of boxing, which he practices as a means
of exercise.

NBW YOUK, Dec 2S. The decision ot
the stewards of tho Grand Circuit to hold
the next annual meeting at Pittsburgh
surprised the turf world, as the Dotrolt
Driving club had canvassed the member
ship In un effort to tako the meeting ,
away from New York. A meet lag In
Ilttsburgh, will do much o stimulate
trotting Interest In tiiat clty.l which broke
Into the new Grand Circuit only last Au-
gust.
Ip all .probability the meeting on Janu
ary 13 will bo the most liarropnlous In
years. Some time ago tho officials of
the Detroit Driving club intimated that,
they would demand the opening dates, a
distinction Detroit enjoyed every year
until this year, and a big n-set on ac
count qf the M. and M. stuKe. Thn as
sociations at Orand Rapid nnd ICalama
isoo are both willing to yield on tils
point; In fact, would Jump at the chance
to come later, so as to benefit by tho 'n,
creased entries that later dates guaran-"'
tee.. Hut now Detroit does not want to
give a meeting so enrly that it cannot tj
Include In Its program one of the big
3-year-old futurities, and hs It cannotll
open tho circuit nnd have August dates,
too, the chances are that the three Mlcht-,i,
gan meetings will cover the last three
weeks of July, although the order of tho
meetings may bn changed, Cleveland Will
bo satisfied with any dates, as the presi
dent of thn association there, It, K.
Deverdux, la the' peacemaker In the board
of stewards. It is not generally known
that at the last meeting, when a conflict
arose over dates, be, for tho sake of har
mony, .offered to open the, circuit early
In July, notwithstanding that such a step
would be a big sacrifice to his, association.
FAlIows Cleveland.
Pittsburgh -will, of course, folldw Cleve.
land.k'biit after that there will be a tangle.
It has been officially announced that thn
Niagara Bating association will have a

New England, Unless' Fort Erie wants the3

Hartford always Insists Upon the woek
that oontalns Labor day, and the next
week must go to Syracuse because the
dates of the state fair are fixed by
statute. It would bo fine for Buffalo
Fort Krie to follow Syracuse and thus

The coming traubte for the stewards,
therefore, will not be so much about
Mlohlgan dates as It will be to determine
what to do with Fort Krlo. The Hudson
river driving park' at Poughkeepsie owns '
a Grand Circuit franchise, but It Is on.',
the Inactive list, Jacob Kuppert, owner
of the track, says ho will reopen the gates
