The game yesterday was the third be-

with Ban Johnson and every other club
manager in the league to get consent
to break the rule. The last consent was
not obtained until just before time TO

had nothing to lose by the arrangement,
and knowing that 1t would be an injury
to the business to disappoint the crowd
after the double-header had been adyer-

There now remain two postponed
