BASEBALL PEACE PACT IS AGAIN THREATENED AMERICAN LEAGUE OBJECTS TO FOUL STRIKE RULE. JOHNSON PROPOSES TO BOSS CHICAGO, December 17.

New trouble Is likely to arise between the National and American Leagues over the foul strike rule. President James A. Hart says that In the Joint meeting of the rules committee of the two leagues he will vote for. the retention of the rule, even If the American League representatives are in favor of abolishing It, and this despite the fact that Hart is said to have promised to vote with the younger organization If after a year's trial the Johnson league decided to discard It. President Hart evidently considers himself In duty bound to vote as directed by the National League, and considers his promise made, to President Johnson binding only upon himself personally and not upon himself as a member of the National League committee.

President Johnson, however, does not so Interpret the promise. Personally he has always been an opponent of the foul strike rule, and if In the session which started this afternoon the American League votes against the rule and the National League committee votes for it, it Is quite likely that there will be a split and that each league will make its own playing code.

I Attorney Lambert, of Washington, who will probably serve as the active head of the Senators this year. Is another new figure in the meeting. The names of the two prominent men whom President Johnson has obtained as backers of the Washington club will probably be announced to night, and this will be one of the most interesting developments of the They are said to be men of national reputation, whose entrance Into baseball will cause a sensation.

He say the M. T. H. S. rollers will Insist on the same plan as governed last year's contest, namely, two divisions of five each.

The plan is that of the Indianapolis League. It will not be hard to pick the five lads who are entitled to roll In the first division, but the second five will be rather difficult to make up, as seven have sufficiently high averages to Warrant their selection. The following are the twelve lads from whom the team will be chosen: First Division Mu rr, who leads the M. T. H.

S. League, with an average of 167; Schwab. ItiS; Dickey, 161; Ayres, 160, and 8chmidt. 169. The second division will lie between Knox, 156; Thomas.

B.iC as was thought.

WABASrJ FOOTBALL CAPTAIN. Kappa Sigma Fraternity Dips in Its Oar. Spaclal to The Indianapolis' News. CRAWPORDSVILLE, December 17. The members of the Wabash College football squad have decided that no further, effort will be made to engage Tug Wilson for next season's team.

The management is Investigating several desirable men for the position, and one of them will probably be signed in a few days. The question, of electing a captain for next year, which was supposed to have gone over until the beginning of the fall term, was brought forward rather unexpectedly and by a close vote it was decided to make a choice this year. The' majority was in favor of taking action at once and would have done so had not Manager Ellcr insisted on postponing the election until next term. It appears that the members of the Kappa Sigma fraternity, who are numerous on the team, started the movement for an election this year, and will have a candidate for the place. It is altogether likely, however, that Spauldlng, a nonfrater nity man, will be chosen If he says he will return to school nextyear.

The old men who will again try are Cullen, catcher and third base; Dow, second base; Robinson, shortstop, if he can persuade his parents to permit him to remain at M. T. H.

S. Gray, pitcher and first base; Diddle, outfielder; McCrea, outfielder; Lindley, substitute outfielder, and Captain Bohnstadt, pitch and first base.
