SUSPENDED STARS
TO TELL STORIES
Kolehnlainen and Kiviat Called
Before A. A. U. Com
mittee.

Hannes Kolehmainen and Abel
Kiviat the distance runners, will ap-
pear before the registration commit
tee of the Metropolitan Association
tonight to give their explanations of
how 1t was that they came to run a
dead heat at the indoor games of the
Thirteenth Regiment a half minute
slower than they are capable of do
ing.
The committee has made no eff
fort to prove anything to bear out
the charge of a suspicious race. XIV
lat and Kolehmainen have been
called and the burden of proof will
rest with them. No witnesses have
been summoned The most import
ant evidence will be that furnished
by Kiviats physician who will pre-
sent an affidavit bearing out the
statements made just after the race
that Kiviat was not in fit condition
to run. On the part of Kolehmainen,
the poor race he ran at the Pastime
A. C. games week earlier will be
pleaded.
In case the men earn a further
period of suspension Kiviat will be
a heavy sufferer, as he is entered
for the mile race at the games of
fine Boston A. A. next Saturday. He
has won this event trophy twice and
needs only one more victory to win
1t outright.

DEVORE SIGNS WITH PILLS

The Chicago Federal League Club
Will make no fight to regain King
Cole, who signed a contract with the
New York Highlanders. President
Weeghman intimated that he did not
consider Cole of sufficient Importance
to go to court about, and in addition
there was some question as to wheth-
er Coles proposition to the New York
club, which was accepted after the
player had signed a Federal contract,
would not put him on the doubtful
list. Weeghman said the Cole case
was entirely different from that of
killifer and reiterated his determine
ton to fight for the services of the
Philadelphia backstop.
The Chicago Federal Club will
take no action to hold Pitcher Cole to
the terms Of the contract he signed"
said President Weeghman. There
seems to be some question as to Coles
eligibility under our conditions, al
though before he signed a Chicago
contract he made an affidavit that he
was not under contract with the New
York Americans.
The Chicago Club is well supplied
with pitchers and will get along very
nicely with the staff now in line | do
not consider Cole to be in a class with
Killifer, and their cases are altogether
different We will go to the finish to
maintain our rights to Killifer under
the contract he signed with the Chi
cago Club"
