Cubs Take Game DeIayedB Strike

Boston, Sept. 10.-Big Jim Vaughn. the powerful left handed pitcher of the Chicago Nationals. kept the Bos ton Americans out of the world's s championship today by winning the fifth game of the series, to o, after the contest had been delayed for an hour by an unprecedented strike of the players of both 42ams for a read iustment of their share of the pro- ceeds.
 When it seemed as if the players and the representatives of the Nation al Commission, Garry Hermann and Ban JohnscS, were hopelessly dead locked and the curtailed baseball year would fizzle out in a strike, Harry Hooper. captain of the Red Sox, call- ed the turn.
 We will play" he said, acting as spokesman for both teams, mot be- cause we tninll we are getting a fair deal, because we are not But we'll play for the sake of the game, for the sake of the public which has al- ways given us its loyal support and for the sake of the wounded soldiers and sailors who are in the grandstand waiting for us."
 The players, even before the start of the series, had manifested dissatis- faction over the division of the money and this unr rest has grown greatly as the games progressed, with small at- tendances on the average for the first four contests. in which the players share the gate receipts. Both teams insisted that the winners had been guaranteed s2,OO0 apiece and the los- CTS st,400, but the sharp falling off in the attendance had made it unlike ly that the players would get any where near this sum, according to their spokesman, Captain Hooper for the Red SoX and Leslie Mann for the Cubs.
 For a while the representatives of both sides argued over the telephone but when the time for both teams to take the field for practice found them still in their dressing rooms in heat ed discussion, the National Commits sion representatives hurried out to Fenway Park to learn from the man agements what the team members had decided to do.
 If the players intend to strike, mak- ing it necessary to call off the game, it is only fair to the public for them to notify the management to stop the sale of tickets before any additional thousands come in,' Chairman Herr marn of the commission said.
 No such announcement was made however. The players still tried to inn press on tSe commission the justice of their cause while the commission pointed out that the matter was out of their hands. and that any change in the division of the proceeds would have to be submitted to tie club own CTS for ratification.
 Shortly before the time for calling he game Chairman Hermann stated the position of the commission, posi- lively.
 The commission cannot change the rule" he said. Tt was proposed and agreed to by both leagues and it is up to them. If there is a strike we shall end the series at this point and divide the money that was coming to the players equally among the club owners. And we shall also take care of

 Mir. Herrmanns words only led to further argument. which was leading nowhere, when Harry Hooper, a vet eran of the game. turned to his fellow players and reminded them of the crowd waiting outside. He put the sit uation up to them forcibly and in a few words, and all hands agreed to call off the strike ad go on with the game for the games sake.
 | In the meantime the crowd was ut | terly at sea as othe cause of the de- until nearly 25.O00 had been seated. In the fear that such q huge gathering would start riot in event of the an nouncement of a strike, police re- serves were rushed to the park.
 But the crowd took the long wait patiently. The arrival of attachments of wounded soldiers ad sailors brought all hands up cheering Justify.

 When the players finally emerged i on the field. they were greeted with mingled boos and cheers. They had a short workout and then Sam Jones one of Boston's start right hand pitchers, went into the box for his first appearance in a big series. The Cubs clawed him badly from the start. F'lack, the first man up drew a pass and Hoilocher shot a single over second, F'lack pulling up at the middle station. The situation grew worse when Mann sacrificed both runners along. and with only one ont runners were on third and sec ond. Paskert came up prepared for a killing and sent a hard low liner to l left field. It looked like a sure safe hit and both runners started with the crack of the bat. But Whiteman, run ming in fast. caught the ball below his knees and with a great throw doubled | up. Hollocher at second, retiring the I.side without score.

 Shorts were inclined 10 enlarge their commitments, but selling of that char acter was minimized by the attitude of the Exchange authorities who openly discouraged professional operations for either account.
