man on the Inside of various affairs In
t ho organization. It i in canne-tlo.i
tv ith the new rule limiting each club
to a total of 21 players on its roster
that the deep seated plots arise.
One National league rule already has
been broken by the New Yortc club. The
emulation approved by the league in its
recpnt meeting hre. whicn loroias any
i-'iih to begin ictire soring training
before March 1, is now nothing more
than a profound Joke in the ir'nl of
the average fan, although nothing very
Tenomous has been printed on the sub
ject. Dick Kinsclla. chief scout of the
(Jiants. put a large squad of young
nlpvers through conditioning stunts
down at Marlin Springs, Texas, for
nearlv two weei:s -previous to the le
gitimate date to begin such things.
Altogether there were . more than 1
youths under his command after the
full bunch of his rookies had arrived.
It Looks Like Tralntnjr.
McGraw. or somebody else connected
w ith the club, may plead that these fel
lows did not do any regular spring
training, but the baseball public has
its own ideas of what constitutes
traiinns. Pitching and batting prac
tice, warming up work bpciub in

similar aspects of real baseball-were
introduced in addition to road runs,
handball playing and various general
xercises of that type design- simply
to wear off superfluous weipbe- and
take kinks out of hardened muscles.

tarded as highly unlikely that aay for-r-a!
charges will be brought against
th- Giants for their offence, yet harm
has been done nevertheless. Tener, by
allowing this sort of thing to go on,
has samplr decreased the amount of re
spect felt for him and his authority

al-o among the fans of the eaontry. But

conspiracy to evade rules is
carried
through to its consummation.
Minor UiEini Will Help.
According to the phraseology of the
new measure prohibiting a club roster
of more than 21 players, this limit goes
into effect on May 1. or 1 days after
the league season opens on April 14.
By that time at least one National
league club and probably two or three
more, according to the Information
vouchsafed, will have completed their
arrangements to get around the rule on
occasions when it would be helpful te
the particular club or clubs to do so.
The latest bit of rule evasion Is to
be worked through agreements with
minor league clubs. If one National
league club, for instance, would like to
have available o:l' more catcher, one
more Infielder. one more outfielder,
and two more pitchers -flve men in
all than the roster limit allows it to
carry, these players will be "sold" to
the minor league dub with which the
deal is made. There will be a secret
understanding that the National league
club ca'n take possession of any one of
these men whenever it needs him. sim
thing would work: The National league
nltaneously trading to the minor league
some player who is not needed at the
time.
Horr It IVoold 'Work.
Here is an example of how the
thing could work: The National league
club would "sell" catcher Smith, pitch
er Brown, outfielder Jones and infield
er Wilson to the minor club. During
zhe season the National league cln.
finds itself crippled through injuries
in Ks catching staff, with no other
available substitute present except
some utllitr man. In this' stress of
circumstance, it will send perhaps some
pitcher not needed at the time to the
minor league club in return for catcher
Smith." After members of the regular
catching staff have recovered, catcher
Smith will be sent back to the minors
in return for the pitcher tor whom he
was traded in the first place.
Tom Lynch had a rocky road to trav
el when1 he headed the National league.
and poor he-mourned Harry Puliiam
faced the sau.e unpleasantness. Gov.
Tener seemed at first to command
more discipline from his underlings
than either of his recent predecessors.
It is to be hoped that the present ten
dency among the magnates and man
agers is not one that is going to keep
on and finally put him in the same un
desirable, predicament that Lynch and
Pulham suffered.

In "looping the loop" the arroplane
flashes into the upright position for a
fraction of a second in its circular
cohrse upward. It rises, however, by
its momentum obtained by the di . e .it

with engine stopped. What the avia
tors seek is to turn upward while in
horizontal flight and rise bv motor
power alone, continuing to rise in the
perpendicular position for an indef
inite period, possibly until fuel is ex
hausted. The problem as viewed by engineers
is to build an aeroplane in which the
propeller' thrust exceeds the weight.

They Will Find Fans Going On a Strike, Is Belief; Re
vision of Prices Should Be Downward; Salaries of
Ball Players Will Be Reduced to the Proper

, ' By FRANK
T,HE baseball magnates would go
into bankruptcy in a month if
they attempted to put into force
the $: admission price that Joe 1-annin,
owner of the Red Sox. predicted in case
the baseball war continued.
A 12 admission price would be
equivalent to a holdup. The fans
wouldn't stand for It not for a single
day. The magnate right now tax the
fans a mighty stiff price and any at
tempt to boost it would mean a boy
cott of the ball parks.
Lannin. if quoted correctly, seems to
have the idea that the fans ought to
be forced to pay for the coat of a
warfare which is the fault of the mag
nates old. Such an Idea is absurd in
the extreme.
If the organised baseball magnates
are suffering such heavy losses be
cause of this warfare, it's about time
for them to make peace and make it
in a hurry. Just because they-aro too
hullheaded to patch up a truce with
the Feds Is no reason why the fans
should suffer, and. the fans won't.
Should RevUe Downward.
The scale of prices at the big league
parks, if changed at all. should be
downward not upward. The usual
range of prices is from SO cents to
11.:;. Some of these Sv cent seats are
not worth the price. They are too far
reinoved from the central scene ot ac
tion. Some years ago most of the parks in
the country had from 300 to TOO 2
cent seats. But the magnates, in re
cent years, became greedy. They re
duced the 2$ cent area to the lowest
possible minimum and now are selling
manv of the old time IS cent seats for
double Uie former price.
Baseball Revolution Coming.
A revolution will come some day in.
baseball and when it does the admis
sion prices to the big league parks will
be decreased. The U and Jl.M seatai
will be a thing of the past. The best
seats will Be bid for to or 7t cents and
there will be thousands .of 2S cent
seats where there are only hundreds
now. And some of these 25 cent seats
will be (he seats that command "i
cents now.
Salaries WHI be Cat.
The reduotioa will come when the
magnates got together and decide to
pay a hall player hi proportion to his
worth about (MM a year for the
greatest stars, and from SUM to JltoS
for ordinary sail players who now are
drawing down war time salaries that
