Show TEE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 27 13, 1929. MAJOR LEAGUES JOINTLY SEEK CHANGE IN OPTION RULE ? OWNERS' PROPOSAL WOULD ALLOW THEM r 1. IMEY T, T BELIEVE IT OR NOT DRAWS a' fession moved today from one hotel lobby to another, but the ret< was much the tame. The American and National leagues, afwr holding their annual sessions for two days, bined In a joint meeting, but nothing of vital Importance to the national game developed from the larger conference. - Thr eliif owners of Botrr leagues agreed with Jacob Ruppert, president of the New York Yankees, that the number of players on option by each club should be 15 instead of eight and that it should be possible to send players out on option for three years instead of two, as provided by the present baseball law. However, the minors will have to agree before a change can be made. Committee of Four From Each League to Sound Minora. A oromltf-eof four from each league will confer with the minora on matters concerning the relationship between the two branches. Concessions will be offered the minors, If they will agree to increase the number and length of options. Poeslbly the minors will ask in return that the majors agree not to sign college players. In the future, players whose contracts are transferred from one club to another must report to their new employer within 72 hours, except In the case of athletes ealled from the Pacific coast to the east. Heretofore it has been the practice of players to consume excessive time In to the club to which they have been transfered. The question of "common ownership" of baseball clubs, the "chain store system," came In for discussion. Including an address by Sam Breadon, president of the St. Louis Cardinals, the most extensive dealer in wholesale1 baseball talent in the game, Mr. Breadon read telegrams from presidents of minor leagues, ranging from A to B, Indorsing major league ownership of minor league clubs, including the Western league, Texas, South Atlantic Association, L I.

The several majorr league owners who are interested in minor league Investments seemed satisfied that nothing would be done to Interfere with their operations.

Nevada Capers Begin Workouts Special to The Tribune. RENO, Nev. Working out dally under the tutelage of Coach Chet Scranton, the Nevada basketball team is rapidly rounding Into shape, and should be able to meet the Stanford Cardinal five on equal terms when the Cards invade Reno, December 23 and 24. Although the Pact lost heavily through graduation of four members of last season's team, the loss will be compensated for to some extent by the presence of three of last year's Los Angeles all city prep school stars. The three southerners are Bludsoe, a center; Bloedell, a forward, and Sultenfuss, also a forward. These three newcomers, with four veterans of last year's squad, headed by Captain Good Gllmartln, probably will make up the Wolf varsity. There are also several members of last season's freshman quintet, who will give, the varsity men a hard fight for berths on the first string. m m a x w v nm At,0 m A- -l M W M- is 0NLV 15 YEARS BUT HAS fOOGWT tCnrt0t lilt.

Milburn will tell you that in his opinion golf is the hardest eame to learn and stay put. Yet eolf would be much simpler u the average player would give more time and attention in the direction of curbing or curing tension. This doctrine has been advanced in these dispatches more than once, but it Is something that will bear repeating, as It not only has a vital effect upon the quality of performance in any game, but also upon the condition of one's nerves, which In turn have a direct bearing upon one's health. to Tha Trlbunt. 8pil PO CATELLO, Idaho. 1T8CRIUS Root (80 miles w 24 mou form goes.

Fofthat reason there is much less tension in tennis than there is in golf. Moving muscles respond more naturally and with greater freedom. They act almost automatically, or through instinct. They are not tied up. But golf is another problem- - The very lack of motion creates tension before the swing is started. It Is for this reason that the waggle came in Finso Fifty Pucxs, as a partial relief. No golfer should ever get the idea that he is planted fTUSH tiVf.'l or set in his stance while addressing tne Da a. mere should be a preliminary waggle with some sort of body motion to break through the increasing rigidity. There must be at least the thought of motion before the I clubhead is started back. But with most golfers the stance is about as flexible as a straltjacket. They have put themselves beyond any possime hope or good timing even be fore the clubhead is started. They COM have locked the door by locking their hands, wrists, hips and necks. EAST TO SEE.

"In golf," he writes, "the player can take his own stance. He Is not in motion. He can start his swing when he wants to. In tennis he is usually moving at top speed. He doesnt know Just where the ball is coming until It is under way. He must get to that spot In a hurry and then time his return." This sounds logical, but it Isnt. The boll weevil, the black plague, the cancer of timing is tension.
