F43W Probationary Baseball Con
tract Will Not Last.
MAY CAUSE LOTS OF TROUBLE
Rule Waa Passed For Protection of
Minor Leagues, but Was Unneces
sary Evers Talks of Modern Base
ball Hoodoo May Follow Merkle.
By TOMMY CLARK.
This new probationary contract
which the major baseball leagues are
forced to submit to the players pur
chased and drafted is going to be short
lived. The new order of things is go
ing to make trouble sooner or later,
and its fallacy will then be realized.
This contract gives the player only
25 per cent increase in salary over
what be received in the minors, and
the contract is but of forty-five days'
duration. This means that in the
event of a player making good during
that period the club for which be is
playing must enter into a new con
tract with him, and the argument of
salary, which is usually always
straightened out - before the season
opens, may come at a time when har
mony is most desired and bring about
a condition which is detrimental to the
team. . -
Incidentally, the young player who is
drafted or purchased and has been
playing in a small league at a low sal
ary will not feel much encouraged
when he receives his first major league
contract and finds that be is raised but
a few dollars.
This rule was passed for the protec
tion of the minor leagues, who claim to
have trouble satisfying the players who
go up to the majors at an increased
salary and are returned because they
fail to make good. But no rule or
change of system was necessary to
combat this annoyance, for it stands
to reason that if a player expects an
increase when he comes to the majors
he should expect a cut when by reason
of his Incompetency he is returned to
the minors.
If baseball history repeats itself,
Fred Merkle, the Giants' first baseman,
will be out of major league company
shortly, while Jake Stahl. the Boston
Red Sox manager, will be found doing
bench duty next season.
it is strange, but true, that world's
series first saekers seldom last -long.
In fact, there seems to be some sort
of a hoodoo which follows the men who
play the -initial sack on the teams
which win pennants.
Go back a few years and this will be
proved. There never was a more sen
sational player in a world's series than
Jiggs Donohue in the series in 1900 be
tween the Sox aud Cubs, and yet Jiggs
could not find a big league job two
years later. Big Dan MoGann of the
Giants did not last long after the 1905
series with Philadelphia.
The surprise of the 1907 series be
tween the Tigers and Cubs was un
doubtedly Claude Rossman. and yet
the following year Jennings got rid of
him aud he drifted into the minors.
In 1909 Bill Abstein looked to be a
most valuable man in the position until
after the world's series, and then Pitts
burgh let him out and he drifted into
St Louis, but failed to make good, and
he has had a hard time ever since
holding his own in the minors.
Just two years ago saw Harry Davis
and Frank Chance battling at first
base in the world's series. Now both
are virtually out of baseball as far as
the playing end is concerned. The for
mer is not connected with any club,
while the latter will manage the New
York Americans next year.
The question of whether baseball has
improved in recent years is one which
is often disputed by some of the vet
eran ball players.
Johnny Evers. manager of the Chi
cago Cubs, related an incident the
other day in answer to the question
whether or not the game had made
any forward strides, which is well
worth telling.
"1 don't know of any better illustra
tion of whether or not the game has
advanced thaD the case of John M.
Ward, who was oue of the greatest
players of the old days and who was
president of the Boston Nationals for
a few monhs in 1912. If the game
hadn't advanced Mr. Ward should have
known as much as any one." says
Evers.
"One day. when 'Hub' Purdue was
pitching for Boston against the Cubs.
'Hub' had two strikes and no balls on
Sliccknrd. 'Hub' put the next one
over t hf plate, and Sheckard landed on
it for a hit and drove in the runs
which won the game. After the game
Mr. Ward went to the dressing room
and gave Purdue a tearing out.' He
then notified the Boston pitchers that
the next time a pitcher had two strikes
and uo balls on the batsman and then
put the ball over the plate, the twirler
would be fined $25.
"The players told us about the new
rule. We had three more games In
that series with the Boston team.
Every time one of us got two strikes
and no balls we knew that the pitcher
didn't dare get the next ball near the
plate. So we let that one go past and
took a lusty swing at the pitched ball
that followed. Say. we had a regular
picnic. I guess that's a little of w!?at
might be called 'inside baseball.

"I have no taste." said Napoleon in
talking to her, "for women who meddle

right" replied Mme. de Stael. "but

COMMITTEE TO PASS
ON BIG FAIR FOND
SALEM, Or., Jan. 13. Whether
Oregon appropriates $500,000 or $250,-
000, or less, for the Panama exposi
tion at San Francisco in 1915 will be
threshed out by a special committee
on fairs in the house.
This committee will not only handle
all business in connection with the
San Francisco fair, but the Oregon
state fair and the various county
fairs will be referred to it as well.
The state fair has heretofore been
in the hands of the ways and means
committee, to which the proposal to
extend state aid to the various county
fairs would have also have been re
ferred.
This will make the committee on
fairs one of the most important com
mittees in the house. The appropria
tions recommended, of course, will be
referred to the ways and means com
mittee.
Members of the Oregon delegatioin
favor having such a committee on

it will be authorized.
