It’» trio bad that chap . D teotive Burns is busy. The Na
tional association ought to round him up and “sic” him on the
ticket scandal. That there' were' tickets sold in large quanti
ties to scalpers is admitted even by the commission. It seems
rather foolish that Uobodv can find'out Who was guilty of
selling these tickets. There must be some fine business ’ sys
tems in force up at the Polo grounds.
The protest against- Walter Camp’s joke attempt to pick
an All-American eleven has aroused the amusement of the foot
ball . world.
The Chicago Post recently gave its leading editorial space
to the following utterance:
MARIST EASY WINNER IN ROAD RUN

‘ MR. CAMP’S LAZY MIND.
Mr. Walter Camp. .who. Whethter you like him or not; is the first football au

the old universities of the Atlantic coast.
This fundamental fact being clear, the provincialism -of a supposedly na
tional critic becomes evident. Mr. Camp alw— *— * *

is evidently writing today for the benefit of his immediate circle of admirers.
We would like to nit this hand-picked Camp team against the eleven piston-
rods who played football .this season for the university of Minnesota.

KILTIES WANT
2 THOMPSONS
New York Americans Make Of
fer for University of Geor
gia’s Famous Battery.
Atheni, Ga„ Dec. 11.—Two of Geor
gia'. star baseball playera have re
ceived utters from the management of
the New York Americana to sign for
ttie coming reason. The players are
the famous Thompson brothers, the
Georgia battery of two seasons, who
have shared honors with Kid Branncn,
I.uon» and other Georgia star batteries
since their arrival at Georgia and who
have figured In so many Georgia bat
ties within the past two years.
The Thompson boys are not eager to
<ialt playing under the Red nnd Black
colors Just yet, for they state that no
derision will he made by them at pres
ent. They state, however, that In all
probability they will continue playing
with coach Anderson's 1912 team until
the dose of the college season In June,
ni which time they amy go to New

Presidents .Lynch, Johnson and Barrow,
of the three leagues, practically every
team owner fn the three organizations
was on hand for Jhe deliberations.
When the National league directors
gathered It was, apparent that Presi
dent Lynch was assured of re-election,
despite the opposition of Ebbetts of
Urooklyh and Fogel of Philadelphia.
Dairy Herrmann, of the National
commission, stated today that that
body la still Investigating the ticket
scandal but intimated that little would
come of It as he and his associates
were "up a tree." He admitted that
speculators here and In Philadelphia
had all sorts of tickets, but apparently
the matter will rest with these admis
sions .unless Ban Johnson forces the

• At .the two major league meetings
(today requests presented to the na-
I tlonal commission and the board of ar
bitration at the Joint session yesterday
by the minor leagues, relative to
amending the national peace agree
