  ball. and the statement OF Chubby Charley that the Philadelphia club would deliver Its vote for John Mont, gomery Ward lends semblance to the story, for it is now understood Felix Isman will not have the club. Murphy claimed last Tuesday that he already had four votes against President Heydler, whom he is trying to d~epose-Yrush. Robinson, Ebbets and himself, and that Philadelphia would vote for Ward. It’s all right for magnates to have at the head of their league the man they want. although it seems that Heydler fills the bill, and II Charley Murphy can get h ma he wants by gaining control of a Ger. tain club that’s all in the game, but the bad feature of this story Ia the an nouncement that q syndicate Supposed 1y an outside one, had purchased the club. There ought to be some baseball. legislation which would forbid the ac- QUESTION of ball clubs by outside capitai. These outsiders, IL any ono would rim O. club without the interests Of the city at heart, would probably moi dc the club much good for many reasons. It would probably be held for political purposes by these outsiders and not for first-ciass baseball as the goal. In another sense, too. the scqrisi. ton Of clubs hy outside capital. does not look good to the public that is ever ready to criticize. Besides one cluD is enough in any league for Charles W. Murphy to own, IL we take his record as a basis for judgment. Syracuse and Fordham bowled undecisively yesterday for the New York State championship. The score was 5–⁠5. Besides the unsatisfactory ending there was a feature to the affair that offers some condemnation. When Ford ham saw that there would be a small crowd It was planned to call off the game, but Syracuse, with a $1,000 guar antee. refused, putting the Bronxonians in a bad hole financially. The bad weather had an effect on the Penn-Cornell game yesterday, but Penn managed to get away with the Thanks giving Day classic by a II to 8 score The game was poorly played.
