Commission to decide who was en-
titled to the services of Player
Schang, each claiming that the other

tagonist to the law of the game and
for that reason declared it null and
Veid.

The Worlds Series
Will Start Oct. 7.

New York. Sept 20-The worlds
series baseball games are to begin, on
Monday. Oct. 7. This date is said to
have been tentatively agreed upon by
the National Commission, which meets
here, next Wedne sday, to draft the
plans for the games. The date for the
opening of the series was based upon
the assumption that the New York
Nationals and the Boston Americans
would win the pennants in their re-
spective leagues. The Boston club has
already won the pennant and the
Giants expect to win within the next
10 days. The playing season of the
Boston Red Sox and the New York
Giants closes on Oct. 5. and one days
rest before the big games is deemed
sufficient. An early start of the Sc
ries is desired as the commission de-
sires to take advantage of good
weather
II is learned that the commission
has practically decided to play two
consecutive days in one city. The
club owners will toss coin to deter
mine what city shall have the opening
games.
