TO PRESENT CASE TO-DAY
MAGNATES IN FINAL EFFORT
TO SAVE GAME FOR SEASON
Such Large Proportion OF Players AZ
fected They Wish Execution
OF Order Deferred.

WASHINGTON. July 23.-Omclals o.
organized baseball are to meet will
Provost Marshal-General Crowder to-
morrow to get definite ruling tc
the status of baseball players unde,
the work or fight" order Secretary
OF War Baker arranged for the con-
quest from the baseball officials to be
heard
The chief argument which will be
advanced by the officials on behalf OF
the players Is that the number OF men
affected by a ruling against baseball Is
very much larger than was believed at
the time Secretary Baker made his re
cent ruling that baseball Is not essen
tal
The baseball owners Will attempt to
convince General Crowder that the
ers is large enough to make continu,
ancc OF the game impossible If all
should be called into service.
If the officials are unable TO obtain
ruling TO exempt the players from
the draft. they will undertake to get
the army officials to Dostponc the en-.
ccution Of the order until the present
season closes.
Officials take the position that the
season has not much longer to run.
and il all the eligible Mayors are to he
to close their season before being
called to the tanning camp.
Secretary Baker said:
II understand the baseball question
is to he argued before General Crowdcr
to morrow. he is going to have repre-
of the industry before him.
and am going to confer with him
after he gets through. I viii! make the
decision. Apparently there arc two
order modified so AS to provide that II
shall not affect anybody automatically
and that the order shall not apply to, a
man until he has been notified by the
local board: and the other group wants
a modification of the order providing
end Of the present season. In the opin-
ion which / gave out said that the
Likelihood was that the number of men
affected would not be enough to dis
organize the industry, and / under
stand they are collecting data as TO tho
number of mon who would be affected
showing that il will completely disor-
ganize the industry.
II am having the provost marshal
general study tho question as TO what
groups should be included under the
order"

 "Do you love the kaiser?" Paul J. Pizzo, one of the military prisoners, asked.
 Balhooter, the soldier said told them the affirmative
 Pizzo met Balhooter's reply with blow to the jaw, which nearly broke the jaw, and did succeed in breaking the soldiers hand. Before the police could interfere, Balhooter was on an unofficial casualty list under the heading, Wounded, 8 degree un- known" sr.s
 He was covered with blood when rescued.
