New York, Dec. 12.-Although the
threatened clash between Judge K. 'IN.
Landis, commissioner of baseball, andj
Ban Johnson, presidlent of the Am-!
erican league, failed to materialize,
the conference of major league ball
club~s held here for the past few dlays
was exceedingly eventful.j
The usual trade talk was the pre-
dominating feature of the sessions, and,
several, imnortant (deals were comJplet-E
ed. The last and most interesting was
that which sent Stanley Coveleskie,
veteran right handed hitcher, from the
Cleveland Indlians. to the world's chain-
pion Senators in return for Byron
Speece, left hander, and Carl Smith,
vwho played ~for the Memphis club last
season. Mike McNally, who was tradl-
ed to the Boston Red Sox by the Yank--
cs, in e,change for Howard Shanks,I
made another lap in his trip about the
circuit when hie was sent to the Sen-
ators, who _lost Doc Prothro. All the
men concerned in these transactions
are-infielders.
Urban Shocker, the St. Louis spit-
baller, whom the brownies are anxious
to trade provided, they can get some-
thing worth while in return, may go
to the Yankees, who have made the,
propositioni of ;an exchange for Joe
Bush. Managers, Sidler and Hiuggins
have confirmed the rumor that the deal

More than 100 basketball coacher;
from the high schools and colleges- of~
lichigan will a ssemble this afternoon
at the Yost field house to disciu- h
interpretations of the changes th at
have lbeen *made in court rules Wvit1bin
th(:i last year.
The meeting will be uinder the di-
rection of A. W. Thompson, of Kalam-
azoo, director of state inters cholasticr
athletics. Mr. Thompson vwill adclress;
the meeting at the opening session,j
which will be held at 2 o'clock.
Coach Edwin J. Mather, of the Var-
sity basketball team, will also speak.
Coach M~ather will be the leader ill
the discussion of the rules which will
follow his explanation.
After the general meeting, the men-
tors will witness a (demonstration I
game on the field house court. Tphe!
reserves and freshmen will play inI
this game, which is designed to illus-
trate the points brought out in the
meeting. The game will he stopped at;
any point which a coach has any qlues-
tions to ask regarding the interpreta-
tion of the rule in question.
The object of the meeting is to unify
the institutions in the state in the mat -
ter of basketball rules and to make:
sure that every team. competing is
abiding by them as they are interpre-
ted.
-Y ~With the anno)uncement that Gym-'
nastics may b~e added to the list of
minor sports, increasedl interest is
being shown in the rumher of news
mnen that have appeared to try out for
the squad. According to the agree-
ment reached b~etw, cen Coach G1eorge
Little and Dr. George May at a con-;
ference last week the recognition ot
u ~gymnastics as a minor sport will bet
;:.. proposed at a meeting of the Board in
IControl of Athletics whichi is to be'
held Wednesday, December 17, and itj
is expected that definite action will ber
taken at this time.
Coach George Little has receivedl
several applications for the position
of ccach and it,, is likely that follow-
ing favorable action on the part of the
Board a. coach will 1)e securedl as soon
as possible. In the past Dr. May has
taken charge of the work, but if the
I squad is recognized he would b)e un-
# ' able to give the time that a team
wouldl require.
Due to the number of men now on
the squlad which has b.een swelled to
w ; over 40, it has been found necessary
to dlivide the squad into two groups.
Those more adlvanced hare been p~ut
