|VAMER|CAN LEAGUE
MAY REACH COURTS
Ban Johnson Refuses to Ratify
Joint Committee Nomination
Yankees VIII Sue for
Third Place Money.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
New York. Nov. Gums are boom
ing now in two offensives Of the ma
jor league war.
The American League board Of d.
Iectors conferred their fire again on
Ban Johnson yesterday by overriding
the protest of Frank Navin and de-
claring the Yankees official winners
of third place in the American League
race. Resolutions signed by Colonel
Jacob Rupert, Charles Comiskey and
Harry Frazee demanded that the ma
tional commission turn over the New
York teams share of the worlds Sc
lies money.
In another sector, the guns were
turned on Garry Hermann. The joint
committee appointed to name a sue
cessor to Herman as chairman of the
national commission met and agreed
on new chairman, whom they de-
clined to name publicly.
Following the meeting, a request
from William F. Baker, William Veeck
and Colonel Rupert, constituting the
committee, was directed to John Hey
dler, National League president, for an
early meeting to ratify the choice.
Heydler telephoned Johnson in Chi
caeo and was told by the American
tend a meeting with any committee Of
which Rupert was a member.
BY this stand, johnson blocks the
efforts to Gust his ally, Herman, and
he brings up an issue which may force
the National League powers to take UP
arms against him with the trio of en-
emies in his own league. If Johnson
persists in his refusal to meet with a
committee of his own selection, the
National League powers may decide
to deal with the American League
board Of directors and act over Bans
head.
Another airing of the American
League squabble In court seems prob
able IL the national commission does
not turn over the Yankees third place
winnings. Colonel Rupert. president
CT the New York club, has announced
that he will institute mandamus pro-
oeedings to force the payment if the
commission does not comply with the
request Of the directors.

SWEDEN PLANS FOR
BIG OLYMPIC TEAM
Will Spend 100000 to Pre-
pare for Games at Antwerp
Try to Get Hjertberg for
Coach.

New York. Nov. 6.-(United Press)-
Sweden is going to walk away with
the honors at the Olympic games in
Belgium next year If money can help
them.
The games are months away and all
arrangements are yet in infant stages.
Nevertheless, the Swedish athletic
commission has appropriated 100000
to get a team in shape to compete for
their flag.
This sum will be augmented by a
later appropriation to cover the ex-
penses of the trip to Antwerp.
The commission is trying to prevail
upon Ernie Hjertberg to absent him
self from his business in Goteborg long
enough to train the team. Hjertberg,
1t will be remembered. was formerly a
coach Of the Irish-American Athletic
club and trained the Swedish team in
1919.
Along with Justice Barlow s. Weeks,
secretary of the American Olympic
committee, Hjertberg was largely re-
sponsible for change in the Belgian
plans which added to the events the
marathon race, the decathlon and the
hop step -and-jump, which were left
of the first list.
America and Sweden both hope to
be big int-winners in those events.
In the near future the American COM
mittee Is expected to announce plans
for raising a fund to defray the ex-
penses of the Yankee team.
