jor League 0vners Worried Over
Political Situation in Base Ball;
SendS.0.S. to Uittle Fdlows''
Chicago, Jan. 9. Major league
club owners are plainly worried over
the political situation in base ball,
especially as to how it affects the
minors. This was apparent today
when schedule makers of the big
circuits met here to prepare the 1921
chart for presentation to the joint
meeting to be held this week.
An important development was the
admission that the majors had sent
a hurried call for the minor league
committee 01 six to come nere to
morrow and discuss the new national
agreement. The minors have an
nounced that they are against the
new compact. On Monday the minor
committee is to report back to the
national association of minor leagues,
when -that organization will take
action in regard to the agreement.
The sudden invitation by the majors
for the committee to come in and
talk things over is taken as an indi
cation that they hope for an eleventh
hour compromise.
The minors, however, have the
bitts "between their teeth. Georee
Maines, president of the Michigan-
Untano league and a member of the
minor committee, arrived today and
said the little fellows were prepared
tor a 'break.
"There will be no compromise," he
said. "We want representation and
a square deal. The present document
does not provide for that. Four mem
bers of our committee are against
signing it and we will recommend
against singing when the committee
reports on Monday.
"The chief objections to the agree
ment are that it would put complete
control of base ball in the hands of
Franchises Granted to
Three Cities in League
New York, Jan. 9. George Her
man Lawson, president of the re
cently incorporated Continental
Base Ball association, was here to
day inspecting park sites for the
leafcue clubs which he hopes to in
stall in or near this city. He said
he expects to place the state fran
chises for New York, New Jersey
and Maryland.
The promoter of the new "outlaw"
league said' three of the eight fran
chises for the eight-club league had
been granted as follows:
Indiana, with the state club play
ing at Indianapolis; Massachusetts,
with the club playing at Boston;
Ontario, playing at Toronto.
New York Giants Offer
$300,000 for Hornsby
Houston, Tex., Jan. 9. Branch
Rickey of the St. Louis Cardinals,
tonight confirmed reports he had
been offered $300,000. for Roger
Hornsby, -second baseman.
In verifying the report, he dis
closed that the New York National
league team was the bidder.
"There is nothing further to dis
cuss," Rickey said. "Hornsby is not
for sale even for $500,000. The St.
Louis club needs pitchers right now
and not cash."
Bowens Wallop Gretna
Town Team, 78 to 20
Gretna, Neb., Jan. 8. (Special
Telegram.) Gretna's town squad of
basket ball players were snowed
under by a 78 to 20 scohe here last
night on their own floor by the
Bowen Furniture team of Omaha.
The Bowens displayed a brand of
teamwork and basket shooting that
had the local, cagers guessing, from
start to finish.
' Munn with 15 baskets and Kacer
with 10, starred for the visitors,
while Grihy played the best same

Basket Shooting of Mahoney,
Camero and Kline Feature
n of 32 to 8 Victory.
Sensational basket shooting by
"Ike" Mahoney. Camero and Kline,
and close guarding by Rokusek and
Hathoot, were the outstanding ff?a
tures in Commerce High school's
32 to 8 victory over Nebraska City
at the local "Y" Saturday night.
Coach Drummond's bookkeepers
outplayed the Nebraska City five in
every department of the game, and
should have piled up a much larger
score. The visitors were unable to
locate the basket and time after time
lost easy chances of putting the ball
in the basket.
L. Faunce, center, scored the vis
itors' eight points, shooting four sen
sational goals, two of them from the
center of the floor.
As a preliminary to the Commerce
Nebraska City mix, the First Baracas
"won from the M. E. Wops, 16 to 14.
m two extra five-minute periods. Ihe
game was hotly contested from start
to finish, and the second half ended
14 to 14. Crowley of the Wops shot
the tying basket in the last few min
utes of play. Inthe first extra five
minutes neither team was able to
score, but with a minute to go in
the second extra periof, Nagl shot
the winning basket. '

Close Game, 19 to 17.
Geneva, Neb., Jan.' 9. (Special
Telegram.) Geneva High school of
this city wondts fourth consecutive
game of the season here last night
when it defeated the South High
quintet of Omaha, 19 to T7, in one
of the hardest fought contests ever
played in this city.
At the end of the first half the
locals were on top of a 12 to 11
score.' Soon after the second half
South High forged ahead and was
leading, 16 to 13, until the last seven
minutes of play, when the Geneva
tossers came from behind and tied
the count. Buscher scored a field
goal with only a few seconds to play
and the locals won the g3me.
The small floor and the ability of
the Geneva tossers to work together
on their own surface resulted in their
victory. During the last 12 years
Geneva High has lost but two games
on their floor.

Chicago, claiming that going up and
down so often makes him siek.
Jack Lelivelt, first sacker, who
steered the club over the Western
league seask last season, will be at
the helm again next season. Lelivelt
will have full sway over the players,
but should he fall down on the job
and this is nft expected Burch will
take hold of the wheel and handle
the team.
Spring training will be held at Fort

pack their baggage and journey
south , about the same time the big
leaguers start playing their practice
games in the southern pnrt of the
United States.
Burch left last night for Chi

Mike Finn, Burch's right-hand man,
also will attend the conference of the
"little ones." . .
