WORLDS SERIES
STILL DESIRABLE
Annual Baseball Classic Might
Do Notable War
Work.

The reluctance of John K. Tener,
former president of the National
league, to get his organization mixed
up in a worlds series this year. may
be traced to a pair Of reasons-hrst
patriotic belief In a policy of adher-
ing strictly to the governments wish
to make every man within the draft
age work or fight; secondly a dislike
for Ban johnson and his methods,
which would have hardly permitted
Tener to sit at the council table as
the National commission prepared
the rules for the forthcoming con-
tests.
1t is scarcely good policy to aban-
don the impressive playing of the
worlds series, for there is present
this year an opportunity for baseball
to do itself Unreasonable good and
at the same time give soldiers and
sailors a large bit of benefit from the
fall classic. A worlds series conduct
ed along purely philanthropic lines.
with the proceeds donated almost
wholly to q fund to buy athletic
equipment for soldiers and sailors In
camp, would be immensely popular
and would serve to turn many foes of
the commercialized game to tho other
side. Tennis is being given a high
rating among wal time sports be-
cause of it's unsel1sh devotion to war
activities.
Baseball could do the same thing,
with the same good result. A period
of grace lasting to h first of Sep
TENDER has been granted. The base
ball seasons should end late in Aug
ust with the worlds series to follow
Immediately after. Tremendous sums
could be realized from the games II
the right methods were used. 1t
might be, even. that the well-known
old theory that stars of the CANA
should participate In a series with
the worlds championship club could
be arranged, the same to turn its re-
ceipts into the fund o athletic
equipment also.
