In a happier mood than usual, because ha had Just opened a letter from President Somers of the Naps stating that Pitcher Doane was the only man now being detained by a ' refusal to waive, and MeCredle naturally took It for granted that Fecx- lnpaugh had been put through all right Manager Mao Is now relying on tne sauvity of Magnate Somers to turn the same trick with Doane. Mr. somers is generally able to secure concessions from the other elubs In the Junior big league, because the ethers owe much to Somers for keeping the American going when the younger organisation . was about to flounder on the rocks. 0etB from Cleveland. Manager MeCredle says that there are seven man: coming f rom Cleveland this year, but beyond Ball, Pecklnpaugh and Doane, he Is mentioning no names. Whether the quartet consists entirely of pitchers Is something that the big fellow has yet to divulge. Inasmuch as he has only three tested pitchers, Bteen, Beaton and Archer, In view at present, It la reasonable to believe that three of the four, not counting- Doans, are slabsters, and the fourth a catcher to assist Murray and Bradley, who comes from Toledo. MeCredle la pretty sweet on Waring, and would like to use him in the Coast sauad. but he doesn't want to appear to be putting one over on Los Angeles, with whom Waring played last season, afterward being se cured by Cleveland. . Manager Walter realises the need of a pair of clever backstops. He has one in Murray, but needs an equally good receiver and a better hitter to oe weu fortified behind the oblold. In 1108 MoCredle frittered away a pennant be cause ha had no catchers who were at all times serviceable. meat of his powers as head of the league. Instead of Graham running the league, it appears that in reality it was come of the California clubs' stockhold er who were ruling affairs. To a man of the judicial training of Judge Gra ham, this was galling.

Outside of the lUtle uproar over that decision, he made an excellent official and the league enjoyed the most prosperous season of Its career. The Coast league would do well to keep Judge" Graham as Its executive head with plenary power. Cut Out Monday Game". According to J. Newton Colver, sport ing editor of the Spokesman-Review, Joe Cohn of the Spokane club is planning to present a schedule to the Northwestern league directors that will give double headers on Sunday and a day of rest on Monday. This, of course, will not prevail during the first couple of months, but after the early season ardor had dulled a bit and the players are In good condition to play doubleheaders Locally, ths fans would welcome such a change from the schedule of two seasons age, when the Northwesterners played every day here. The fans were not used to It, and the Monday's crowd resembled the proverbial hunk of soap after a hard day's "washing. There-Is such a thing as offering too much baseball to the fans, not to consider the lackadaisical effect It has on the players. Graham Good President. According to advices from the south, The Journal put one over on all the other papers on the coast oo the an nouncement that Judge Graham had sent In his resignation to the league, which will be considered at the meeting of the directors tomorrow night Judge Gra ham was not satisfied with, a curtail- Western "Bowling Congress 5 , Man Money Largest in History.

Other prises-will be In proportion. It Is esti mated there will be at least 200 fives, including seven teams of women,; 300 doubles and more than 1000 singles. A 10 day program Is being arranged. . Spokane Bowling Tournament asso ciation has been Incorporated under the laws of, the state of Washington with a capital stock of $6000, and the fol lowing officers to finance the tourney: President B. Lewis Butter, secretary of the Spokane & Eastern Trust company; vice president Frank W. Smith, pro moter and patron of clean sports; treas urer, W.

President , Butter, accompanied by a party of business, men of Spokane, will leave on a tour of the western and cen tral states on January 10, traveling In a special car. The party expects to pass several days In Chicago, also making stops at points between Spokane and. St Paul, after which Mr. Rutter will visit eastern cities, with a view to In teresting bowler's In the tourney. Vice President Smith has arranged to make a tour of Washington, Oregon and California, leaving Spokane on January 8. He will go as far south as Los Angeles, ths trip . occupying 20 days. He looks for a score or more fives from cities in Oregon and California, saying also that cities and towna In Washing ton will send 60 teams. Officers of the Western Bowling con gress and the tournament association will visit the strongholds of bowlers in Idaho, Montana, Utah, Wyoming, ths Dakotas and cities In western Canada.

' -' Warner watched the Chicago game the other day with a great deal of In terest and particularly the work of parsons and Cornell. For a little fellow Warner thinks Corner Is a won der. "While, of course,' a football eoach Is somewhat hesitant about talking of young high school players," said Bill yesterday, "I think that both Parsons and Cornell, with a few more pounds Of flesh on their bodies would become valuable to a college team. Cornell Is a speotaoular player, but he Is appar ently, a very cool and collected one. Ordinarily the -spectacular. , player is more or lees erratic, but from what I saw of Cornell, his steadiness Impresses one. . . rambled Passed Ban. The wet ball that Parsons kicked over the . goal bar from placement In the Chicago game was tumbled by Cor nell, on aooount of its slippery condi tion, no doubt, but hs used rare cool ness and judgment In picking It up and planting It for Parsons' boot. His gen eralship In drawing the Chicago ends In and then skirting tbelr wing for 65 yards was as pretty a thing as a quarterback could be expected to 4o, not merely from the run Itself, but from springing the play when he noted the disposition of the Oak Park wings to crowd In toward the play. That is one of the things known as football generalship, and It is the biggest asset any football team can have A quarterback cannot be too me chanic He Is placed In the pivotal po sition not entirely for the purpose of relaying the ball from the center to some other player, ao much as for his ability to direct the plays of the team. Some Have o Initiative. Occasionally a quarter has no Initi ative, but Is an excellent passer and a good runner back of punts, In which case one of the backfleld men calls the signals. This, however, Is used only In extreme cases, the quarter be ing found to he the logical man by all coachos. ; ' "Cornell possesses an ability to run back punts, skirt a flank, execute a for ward pass and drive his team with en ergy, precision and craftiness. "Parsons ought to become a splendid addition to some college team. He la hard to down, rugs with short steps, used splendid Judgment In finding the weak spot In his opponents' defense and In addition as a promising defensive half." PENTATHLON SWIM. ON TONIGHT AT Y.
