NEW YORK, Aug. THE resigna.

dressed TO all the club presidents in

Iaid:
Having declined TO serve further
on the National Commission for the
good reason familiar to each OF you,
I must ask that my resignation as your
president, rendered last December, b.
now accepted. am prompted to take
this course out Of consideration Of tbs
present situation, and that you may
more speedily select my successor
who will, If you desire. serve on the
commission under the circumstances
The resignation Of President Tener
will clear up the involved situation IN
the National Commission and expedite
the work Of that organization in pre-.
pairing for the proposed world series,
scheduled to begin on september 3 or
4. Following rhe decision Of the Phil

As this series is played under the
control and direction Of the National
Commission, Il Is necessary that the
latter organization be represented and,
since Tener refused absolutely to have
further dealings with the commission,
q Is assumed he felt that the accept

would clear the situation and pave the
way for q more harmonious arrange

John Kinely Tener was the eighth
man to be elected president of the
National Baseball League. He was
chosen as the executive officer OF that
organization in December, 1913, AMI
the constitution OF the league was
amended so that his term Of office was
extended to four years. In December
1917, he was reelected for one year
with the understanding that he could
devote a great deal of his time to a
new commercial enterprise, Of which
he had Just assumed control.
