HAL CHASE PUNISHED FOR LOOSE PLAYING
Reds Star First BaSeInan Penal
 ized by "Matty"

New York, Aug S.-Hal Chase, first baseman of the Cincinnati Reds, was indefinitely suspended yesterday by Christopher MathewsOn, manager of the team, for indifferent playing. Sherwood Magee covered first for the Cincinnati nine at the Polo Grounds yesterday, and it appears more than probable that Sherwood will be kept at this post until the abbreviated season closes
 The career of Chase as big leaguer has been considerably checkered. The Tanks were the first team to get a line on the ability of Hal, who while yet in his teens was cutting wide swathcs on tho diamonds of the Pacific Coast League. The Tanks scouts finally grabbed Hal, and he was the big drawing card for the local American League team when it played on the Hilltop Grounds"
 Hal at first delivered of his best, and it was some best. But too much acclaim and praise swelled the young ster's head to such an extent that he aspired to the managership of the Yanks. a position he finally attained. Chase as a manager was a failure, al though it may be assumed that he did his best.
 When the Federal League war broke out Hal was one of the first of the major league players to nibble at the big money bait offered by the out law organization. He joined the Buff falo club of the new league, and re- mained there until peace was made in baseballdom and the Feds threw up the sponge.
 For long time Chase tried vainly to land a job with his old associates. Ban Johnson refused to permit his re- entry into the American League and it was not until Matty took pity on Hal that he latter came back to the big show. It was often said that Hal was Mattys right hand man in the conduct of the Reds, and his playing at first and at the bat led the Redland fans to hope that a pennant, so long hoped for in Garry Herrmann's town, might finally be a reality.
 Judging from the action taken by Matty yesterday, Hal has reverted to type. It may have been due to the heat, or it may have been due to Halls recognized eccentricity.

RULINGS OF BASEBALL COURT.

Cincinnati O., Aug. 8.-The Ma tional Baseball Commission yesterday dismissed the claim of Claud F. Will club to $183.66 salary from June l to June Il. 1918. The commission says:
 Williams, who on three days mo- tice, arbitrarily left the service of the club on June II, entered the employ ment of a shipbuilding company and applies for aid in obtaining a settle ment.
 "The Chicago club bases it's refusal to pay the complainant for the period stated by him on the ground that, by preaching his 1918 contract with it. the player depriVes it of his services to it's great damage, and contends that he is stopped in equity from claiming any compensation under it's provisions.
 "The commission. with full appro- val of the action of the Chicago club under the circumstances, dismisseS the complaint of the player"
 The ruling was signed by Chair man Hermann and President John son of the American league.
 In another ruling, Player J. F. Cof- fey of the disbanded Des Moines team, was awarded to the Detroit club. while the claim of the Jersey City club to his services was dis missed.

HEYDIER IN CHAIR,
Secretary Acting President of Nation
 al Ieaoue.

President August Hermann of the Cincinnati club announced yesterday that Secretary John A. Heydler would serve as President of the National League until Governor Tener's success sor was named.
 While I regret to see John Tener quit the game, I was not in the least surprised to hear of his resignation" said President Hermann. He re- signed several months ago, but for the good of the sport we asked him to remain at the head of the National league. He did so under protest and we were glad to have him stay, but he is a busy man and his private in terests take up the greater. part of his time.
 "I understand John Heydler is back on the job, and will remain until Ten CTS successor is named. I have not the least idea who that man will be. In the meantime Heydler will act in Tener'S place, and I am sure every thing will go along smoothly"

The Bur rift hovs worked hard and slipped an other run over the plate and the play got intense as man was left on base with two down and heavy Slugger un to bat. II ecame through too with a heavy clout at a bad angle and it looked good for home run with a man scoring ahead of him but little M Steege. center fielder of the Smith team saved the day for his playground bv making d very sensational catch after q hard run thereby holding the score at to & in favor of the Smith bows.
