HART DECLINES TO RUN
FOR LEAGUE PRESIDENCY
Heydler's Position Strengthened by
Withdrawal of Chicago
Candidate

NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-The an
nouncement from Chicago that James
Hart would not be a candidate for
president of the National Baseball
league has turned speculation here on
who else might be selected by Charles
Murphy of the Chicago National
league club as his candidate for John
a. Heydler's position.
1t is said here that Murphy will not
favor Joseph OBrien, president of the
American association. The retirement
of Hart from the race has strengthened
the position of Heydler, according to

Reports from California indicate
that Pat Flanagan will not be

as strong with the big stick. While
he is playing fairly good ball it is
claimed that he is not strong
enough to displace others with the
Sox this season. This means that
Vancouver will again be danger
