PLAYERS HAPPY
KRAF rs SUCCESS
Details Must Be Worked Out
and Nashville Club
Satisfied.

Clarence Kraft has been awarded to
the Newark club on a reversed ruling
by the National Commission, but the
details of the case and the cause of
the change of heart by basebalfs big
triumvirate are still lacking. The
matter is not yet thoroughly settled,
for the Nashville club will have to be
placated in some way. That will have
to be settled by President Charles H.
Ebbets, jr. The matter of Kraft's
back salary must also be fixed up in
some way. The National Commission
has not informed Mr.. Fultz as to
what the procedure will be in this
case. The commission will probably
have to stand for the loss.
Kraft was delighted yesterday when
he received a telegram from Fultz
stating that the decision had been re-
versed. He knew no more of the de-
tails, however, than did Fultz.
Today is an open date and no game
is scheduled, but by tomorrow Kraft
is likely to be eligible. The Newark
management cannot play him, how
ever. until official notification is sent
to President Ebbets, jr.

That Maurice E. Mclaughlin, the
national champion, will again head

Karl H. Behr, New York; William M.
