TENER BELIEVES IN
ESTABLISHED SCHEDULES
BY H. C. HAMILTON
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
New York, Jan. 11. There is one
mighty good reason why arguments in
favor of shortening National league
schedules or starting them later, never
got serious consideration at meetings
of the older major league.
Gov. John K. Tener is the reason
ind his explanations always put i
quietus on talk of that sort. Tend-
figured it out last summer when the I
Poston Braves were having such 'H
hard time with at-home dates.
Early in the spring a year ago the
Braves had good weather at home and
sc did other National league clubs in
the east. But later it began to rain,
was cold, and everything seemed to
conspire against baseball. The re
sult was that although the Braves
were in the race right along they had
one of the poorest years in their his
tory. Governor Tener observed that good
weather had favored this club early
and he began to go into records. He
found that just as often as not good
weather was on tap for opening dates,
end in fact for the first month of the
season. Then would come bad spells.
Some times they struck the eastern
half of the circuit and some times
they didn't. He found, he declared,
that more games had been lost in late
season than in the early spring.
With this to work on, it was easy
to discover that starting the season
later or cutting it short would actu
ally work a hardship on the clubs
instead of giving them a better whack
at the good weather stretches.
John Heydler, secretary of the
league, added a little information
when he said that for several years
' November weather has been better for
baseball than many summer dates.
It isn't always the case that spring
weather is most favorable. Some
years show bad .days early and. per
fect ones in June, but recent years
have been just the reverse.
Statistics of this kind effectually
slopped talk of rearranging schedules.

sidered possible.

Arguments for Herbert were that a
cabaret is a performance for profit,
and that therefore Herbert is entitled
to royalties. To support the perform-ance-for-profit
plea advertisements
of Shanley's were introduced, in which
the words "cabaret extraordinaire"
)were used." Blushingly modestly,
Herbert by his attorneys admitted his
soner tjrobablv had something to do
with it.
In turn, the cabaret pleaded that no
admission is charged, and that there'
fore there is no profit. Although
Herbert's attorneys replied that the
admission charge is incorporated in
the charge for food and drink, two

London. Dec. 25. (United Press by

Prince Albert does not set tip an es
