SENATORS DEFEAT
HELPLESS CHAMPS
IN TWO CONTESTS

Washington, D. c., Aug. 26.-The
biggest crowd the White Sox have
seen here this year turned out to
atCh Griff'S pennant fighters grab
two essential games from what is
left of the worlds champions.
The Senators boosted their pen
nant chances one full game, taking
advantage of the idleness of Bos-
ton and Cleveland. Jim Shaw made
the SoX look like a bunch of help
less BOlsheviki in the opener. Wal
ter Johnson entertained the 5000
fans, including 1000 soldiers, in the
final tumble of the SoX. Several
curious persons also viewed the
proceedings from the housetops.
The games went to Washington, s
TO 0 and 3 to 3.
1t was all Shaw in the first game.
Jim was right and the Sox were
lucky to get four scattered hits off
his fine breaking delivery. While
Shaw was holding the misfit Sox
Rowland's men were mussing up
things for Russell. Reb was raped
hard in the first and second in
nings, but a wild heave by Murphy
and another by Leibold helped
Griff's bunch, to five runs. Two
safe raps and a forceout gave them
another in the third.
Devormer played rightfield for
the Sox in the first game and seem
ed helpless at bat. Russell went
to the defense of that sector in the
second game.

BOSTON OWNER
AGAINST PLANS
Harry Frazee Declares He VIII Not

National Commission.
WANTS GAMES IN HOME TOWN
Present Arrangements to Stage the
First Three Contests in Chi
cago Unfair He Says.

Boston, Aug. 26.-The Boston
American league club will refuse
to abide by the schedule arrange
ments for the worlds series as Civ
en- out by President Ban B.. John
son of the American league on Sat
urday, President H. H. F'razee of
the Boston team, the league leader,
announced last night.
President Frazee said the propos-
al to play the first three games in
Chicago was unfair to the Boston
team. He suggested as an ideal ar
rangement the first two games,
Wednesday and Thursday, Sept
and 5, in Boston. and the next two
on Saturday and Sunday, Sept. and
S, in Chicago. He did not refer to
the other games of the series if any
would be required.
IF the Boston club wins the
American league pennant | will re-
fuse to abide by the schedule ar
rangements for the worlds series as
given out by President Johnson in
Chicago on Saturday, Mr.. Frazee
said. Such a schedule is not only
very unfair to the Boston club, but
it is an insult to Boston fans and
10 the best baseball town in the
American league.
While it has been the custom for
the COntending club owners to toss
coin to decide upon the place of
the opening Of the series, l do not
mind waving that formality and
playing the first two games in Chi
cago and then coming to Boston for
two games. But I am absolutely
opposed to playing three games in
Chicago, and then as President
Johnson says, play the remaining
games. if any (whatever that
means) in Boston
The ideal arrangement would be
to play the first two games on We'd
nesday and Thursday in Boston and
the next two, Saturday anC Sunday,
in Chicago. The schedule as given
out by Mr. Johnson will necessitate
the passing up of both the Satur-
day and Sunday dates, which
think is a big mistake.
Wants an Even Chance.
The series should be so arranged
that each club shall have an even
chance to win. The expense of an
extra trip between the two cities
should not be considered at all.
There is absolutely no reason for
Curtailing the series.
Secretary of War Baker has Civ
en- his official sanctum to the affair
and the clubs will have until Sept.
Is in which TO play the regulation
lumber of games.
Il am quite in sympathy with all
the other plans outlined by Mr.
Johnson, and l look for a series up
to the standard. both in general ex-
cellence of play and in popular in

THE national commission will
not pay any attention to Harry
Frazee,' said Ban Johnson, presi-
dent of the American league, last
night, when informed of the atti-
tude taken by the owner of the Bos-
ton Red Sox. Ban spoke as fol-
lows:

procedure. Chicago was awarded
