CHICAGO, Jan. 2l--More specific

eral league for temporary injunction
against the organized forces. Attor'

verbal shelling that was poured into

pointed out that they will develop just

Judge Lands having set no time limit

that organized baseball forces would

There was another big crowd on

Addington had to be urged several

SEVERAL EXCUSES FOR

War-Slain BOuin

lis Hannes Kohlemainen slipping
That is the question that is agitating
amateur track circles al present and
there are as many opinions as train
ers, runners and experts who can
crowd into the discussion Ii Is a
fact that the great Finn distance run
ner has been showing very poorly in
his recent races. and in his last two
endeavors he has stopped and left
the track, before the finish, most
unusual proceeding for the hero of
the Stockholm Olympiad.
There is a day in every runners
career when he is absolutely at mis-
this day was the one in July, 1912,
on which Hannes and the lamented
Jean Bouin met at 5000 meters In
the Stockholm stadium. The wonder

day, or better yet, those 10 days or
Swedens great Olympic festival. In
that wonderful duel or speed and grit
with Bouin. koly passed the three
miles in 14:09. Hannes will never
equal these figures again; therefore,
IL may be truthfully stated that he's
not as good on the track as he once
was.
Some eastern experts are holding
that Kohlemainen is failing To show
his oldtime form because he has been
too much engaged in business TO train
properly, because he has attempted to
lengthen his natural stride OF late,
and because he is growing older and
stiffer in the joints IL Is also report.

and the longer steps have resulted
in the loss OF the tireless rhythm that
marked his Olympic running. II is
certain that the new idea has not
done him any good. Lawson Robert

but insists that he is still as good as
