'I FOR A. HERRMANN
Ban Johnson Will Vote for Present Chairman and Heydler for
: Someone Else Minors Are Not in Harmony Over Abol
ishijig Draft, Although Agreed on Optional Agreement.
By Jack Vciock
EW YORK, Jan. 15. (L N .S.) The chairman
ship of the national baseball commission was the
leading topic at the meetings of the National and
American leagues here today. The two big
leagues went into separate sessions to ratify play
. ing schedules, clean up routine business and out
line policies in advance of the joint meeting,
which is slated for tomorrow.
Various opinions were expressed regarding
the question of the national commission and the
demands to be made by the minor leagues.
Consensus of opinion pointed to a probable
deadlock over the election of the chairman of the
Central body, with Ban Johnson voting fpr Chairman Herrmann
ajnd John Heydler voting for someone else. In such a case, it was
pointed out, Herrmannn would continue as a holdover official.
Meanwhile Herrmann refuses to commit himself on the question
of his withdrawal.
S While the majors are In session,
th adjourned meeting f the N
tional association was convened, at
-the Biltmore hotel, with President
I Mike Sexton, of Rock Island. I1L,
presiding!.
IWtaers to Shave Demaads
j The minor leaguers will shape
their policies In readiness for their
presentation to the majors tomor
row or FTtday.
President Sexton admitted to
day that the minors are not a, unit
in demanding the removal of the
daft.
; "Soma of the minor league club
and leagues want the draft lifted."
said Sexton, "while 'others are for
Us continuance. All agree, how-
i ever, that the abolition cf the op
tional agreement is necessary to
their future success." -
Griffith's Plaa fp Again
Qlark Griffith, of the Washing
ton Senators, Is prepared to offer
the majors and minors a "solution
of their troubles today. Griffith
says baseball fan be conducted on
a fair basis for all concerned if
i founded and run on three rules
,the draft rule, the waiver rule and
the reserve rule. ,
"Under his plan no player could
I be purchased In the open market,
f but the majors would acquire new
Tj.talent through the medium of the
draft, and if a player failed to
( i make good he would be cent back
1 to some club of lower classification
via the waiver ruje, and the players
j going back ' to the minors would go
jsghack free of charge and unin
cumbered by options. '
i Sale Price f 1,150,009
t The sale of the Giants to Charles
5 Stoneham, Judge McQuaid and
John McClraw was still being dis
J cussed in the lobbies today. It
i ranks as the greatest baseball deal
J in history, and although the new
, owners and the retiring officials
have refused to name the sum in
volved, it is said on good authority
j- that it was 11.350.000.
-y The St Louis Cardinals may be
Sold to Russell Gardner, wealthy
Abound City automobile manufao-
turer, and owner of the Memphis
club, before the week is over. It
Is said Gardner has made a bid
, for the Cards and named his price.
:J Branch Rickey is considering the
-offer and has communicated with
" the club officials at 8k Jxuts. Re-
ports that James C- McGill, owner
;-.of the Indianapolis franchise, is ln
J'terested with Gardner, were denied

trouble. Chapin played well and besides

Portland's Great Miler Schooled
in Flying by Italian Instruc
tors in Foggia.
riSST LIEUTBNANT VERB
V WINDNAGLE, - Portland s . In
ternationally famous mile runner,
has returned from Italy, where he
did hia training in aviation under
Italian instructors and learned to
fly the big Caproni bombing ma
chines. Because of the request of
the Italian king, the American
aviators in Italy wear the Italian
royal flying corps decorations, so
that they look like a major general
when they doff the overcoats.
Lieutenant Windnagle wears two
gold service stripe on his left arm.
He landed in England, traveled
through France to Italy and fin
ished his schooling at Foggia.
Toek Fart In Meets
While it was hard work, Wind
nagle and his American mates had
time to participate in a number of
International athletic tournaments
in which the Americans came off
in signal honors. "
There were enough ail-American
football men in the camp to -make
any college team a 'champion on
the gridiron, says the Portland
flyer. I Among theme were Steve
Phllbinof Yale, Jim Kennedy of
IaFayoe, Good of Colgate and
Ed Malley of Notre Dame. Among
the track men were Red Graham,
the Chicago pole vaulter and for
mer national champion ; Hap Gra
ham, the New York Athletic elan
five-mller, and Windnagle himself,
who was the national mile cham
pion In 1916, getting around the
oval In remarkably fat time.
First at ectlag ta Years
Somebody Said that tf a ' man
wants to meet his friends, he had
better so to war. Singularly enough
this very thing happened to wind
nagle when he was In Bordeaux,
and it has to do with .three other
athletes of Vere's high school day
In Portland.
Walking alone a street in Bor
deaux one day, he was hailed by an
officer, who happened to be Lieu
tenant Kirkland, the Columbia uni
versity prep school hurdler, who
left Portland to. enter Notre Dame
and became prominent in eastern
athletics. Kirkland Is In the- ord
nance corps and is athletic director
for the troops around Bordeaux.
"Howdy, Fellow"
While Windnagle, who spent a
year at the University of Oregon
after finishing Washington high, and
later was gradauted from Cornell
university at Ithaca, N. Y., and
Kirkland were talking over old
times, the latter was hailed by
Lieutenant Schafer,. Vancouver
high school athlete, who was
wounded in an infantry charge on
the French front. Schafer competed
in a number of Portland intei;
scholastic meets ""and was welf
"known to Kirkland and Windnagle.
Looking over the register at Wlnd
nagle's hotel was Captain Harold
Hilton, Washington high school ath,
lete, who starred in track work on
the same team with Windnagle.
Hilton, who went east to college
and finished at Oregon Agricultural
college. Where he became prominent
In wrestling, recognized the name
and hunted Vere up. He therefore
located the two others, none of
whom knew another was In Bor-
