day President Johnson was advised by
August Hermann. chairman OF the Ma
tional Commission and owner OF the
Cincinnati Nationals. that he would at
tend the Cleveland meeting instead, and
that two or three other National League
club owners would accompany him.
President johnson. who originally
was in favor of staging the worlds
series after Labor Day. said he was
strongly opposed to continuing baseball
after September I, as he believes to play
after that date would be a direct viola
ton Of the War Departments orders.
six of the eight clubs in the American
League he said. have approved his sug-
gestion to close the championship sea-
son on or about August 20 and then
stage the worlds series and exhibition
games in the eleven days remaining until
September /.
The American League executive is

tary Baker stipulated.

Another thing that made the Dodgers
happy was that Zack Wheat ran his
string of successive hit contests up to
nineteen and swatted the Cardinal
twirlers so hard in ootn contests as to
enable him to pass into the lead in the
race for National League batting hon
ors. Buck batted 400 In the opener
and $50 In the second game. His days
batting average was .575.
LII Ollie O'Mara was the hero Of the
afternoon. Besides making many pretty
stops and throws around the difficult
corner the blonde haired boy from Kerry
