Resign Before Series

New York, Sept. 2l.-Col. Jacob
Rupert, president of the New York
American league club and member
of the joint committee to recon-

New York today, from Chicago, is

that August Hermann the presi-

Clubs Will Not Profit
In Lengthening Serie,

New York, Sept. 2l.--Garry Herr
mann writes that in proposing to
extend the worlds series limit from
seven to nine games he, as presi-
dent of the Cincinnati club had no
financial benefits for that organiza-
ton in mind. Hartmann says:
with reference to the recommen-
dation made by the national COM
mission that the worlds series
should be heightened from seven
games to nine, it has been stated
that the Cincinnati club through this
action wants to make the most OF
an opportunity in so far as finances
are concerned. The National COM
mission in making this recommen
dation had in mind only that the fact
there is an unprecedented demand
for worlds series tickets this year.
'If the series goes to nine games
the contesting clubs are not bcne-
flted to any extent financially for
the reason that the players will par
ticipate in FIVE games instead Of
four, and for the further reason
that if the eighth and ninth games
are to be applied. both contesting
clubs agree to pay IS per cent of
their part Of receipts into their
respective league treasures"
Whatever the reasons for asking
that the series be extended, the fact
remains that the proposal has failed
to strike a sympathetic chord.
Among base bali followers in this
city the idea has developed highly.

DECISIVE BATTLE
FOR CITY H0N0RS
Murphy and Union
0utfitting Co. Were Sched-
uIed to Play
Sunday.

Jupiter Pluvius played the most
important part in the local champ
ionship series, thus far this season
and the city title contest sceduled
yesterday afternoon at Luxus park,
between the Murphy-Did-Its, class
A. Greater Omaha league pennant
winners and western amateur
champs, and the Union Quitting
Co, class B city champs, was post
poned
Should weather conditions per-
NIT, the contest will be played next
Sunday, unless other arrangements
are made in the meantime. 1t has
been rumored that the Outhtters are
anxious to play three-game series,
one next Saturday afternoon and a
double-header on Sunday, if the as
soeiat;on favors this plan.
However, 1t is likely that the
champions of the National Amateur
Base Ball Federation will play the
Murphy's here next Sunday for the
national title, and in that event the
series game or games, as the case
might be, will be postponed until
later date.
Secretary J. J. Isaacson OF the
Municipal Base Ball association has
not received any definite informa-
ton from the national body but is
still negotiating with President
Nokes of the federation, and expects
a definite answer within few days.
Bee Juniors Idle.
The opening clash for the title Of
the Omaha Bee Junior Base Ball as
sociation between the Woodman of

afternoon at Fontenelle park. the
opener between these two above
mentioned teams and the winners
to clash with the Meyers Bearcats,
champions of division three for the
title.
The third division champs are
somewhat impatient, according to
Manager Coudurier, since they have
not played for the past seven weeks.
Division three was the first to close
the season, while division one and
two finished in ties. the former
three e-cornered affair. While these
two divisions were playing off the
ties, the Meyers Bearcats remained
idle. and for the past three weeks

Cubs Win Fast Game,
Fight
Likely to Be Renewed
Over Draft Of Players

New York, Sept. ia new base
ball fight, or rather renewal of an
old d\one, looms up between the ma
iors and the minors, with David L.
Fultz again in one of the leading
roles. 1t all started over the draft
ing of players. This was really the
reason of the split between the ma l.
jor leagues and the minors last
winter.
Recently President Fultz OF the
Interna tional league, having heard
that the National commission was
convening to consider the draft of
minor league players, became con-
siderably asitated. The Internation-
al head got busy and issued warn-
ing to the effect that if the majors
dared NEEDLE with minor league af-
fairs court proceedings would fol-
low.
Commission in Session.
Meantime the National commits
sion was in session at Chicago and
decided that it would not draft star
players from the minor leagues this
fall because of the uncertainty now
existing between the major and mi
nor leagues of the country. In
short, there is too much bolshevism
in the air. The big league mag
mates are going to play it safe.
Nevertheless. they are anything
but pleased over the situation. To
allow little fellows to dictate what
should be done is irritating. Where
fore, a ghost of the Federal league
fight was dragged forth by the COM
mission, which ruled that the old
international league still is indebted
to the commission to the extent of
$500.
Served Warning.
The commission served warning
that unless this sum was paid within
so days the territorial rights of the
cities comprising the international
league circuit in 1914 would not be
respected. This money. it was ex-
planned, was part of funds loaned
to the organization to oppose in
vasion by the Federal league.
Mr.. Fu1z was quizzed regarding
this latest wrinkle and declared that
this money which the commission
said had been loaned to the Inter
national league was really loaned
to the Buffalo club and not to the
league. He said that the Buffalo
club had since been through bank
ruptcy, and therefore, it was hard
TO see just how anything was to be
done about the matter. They
weren't going to worry about the
stand of the commission that the
money was loaned to the league.

CHAMPIONS Manager
Turns Down Offer of
$4,000 in Australia

New York. Sept. 2l.-Bill Glib
son on behalf Of Benny Leonard,
has turned down an offer to box in
Australia. He has been offered
$4,000 for two matches in the far
southland, one of them to be with
LEV Edwards, the lightweight
champion of Australia. Gibson's
reason for refusing this offer is that
he can make more money here in
the time it would take to go to Aus
tralia. box twice and return.
Llew Edwards by the way, who
now holds the lightweight cham
pionship of Australia. is said to be a
great fighter. He succeeded Ted
Kid Lewis as featherweight cham
pion of that country. but has out
grown the class. Lewis says that
even as youngster, Edwards was
extremely clever and could hit. He
says, that if he has improved in the
past four years he could be a
worthy opponent for Leonard
1t is possible that Edwards may
come to this country. He has GER
tain contracts to fulfill in Australia,
and then, if it is impossible to get
Leonard to go to the Antipodes,
Edwards will come.

Title. Race.

New York, Sept. 2l.-One victory
in its five remaining contests will
clinch the American league pennant
for Chicago, while Cincinnati has
assured itself Of the National
league flag and participation in the
worlds series by vanquishing New
York, its nearest rival, twice last
week.
The Cleveland Americans, which
are four games behind the leaders,
have won ten straight games, but
single defeat will eliminate them
from the race.
Except the fight between Detroit
and New York for third place in
the American League, probably no
change will take place in the stand
ings of the teams in the two leagues.
The Yankees went ahead of Detroit
today when they defeated the, Tigers
for the third straight time.

the Giant team failed to score.
Chicago tightened its hold OH

by winning five straight games
while Pittsburgh was unable to keep
up its winning pace of the previous
week. Alexander made it six
straight for the Cubs today by shut
ting out Boston.
Hitless Wonders Hit.
In the American league, Chicago
was somewhat unsteady in fielding.
The White Sox outslugged Philadel-
phia in an lilo contest and took a
double header from New York. Mays
snatched the final game for New
York with his own batting. Boston,
winner of the 1918 worlds series,
trounced Chicago twice Saturday.
Cicotte of Chicago won his eighth
consecutive victory Friday.
Averaging almost II hits game,

ship, St. Louis defeated Omaha by a
score of 3 to g. The final game
scheduled as part of Sunday

low the visiting team to catch train
at 5:45.
The Armours' grand old man,
Andy Graves, started the game for
the locals, but the wet and muddy
condition of the field was against
his kind of mound work and he re-
tired after the first inning, when he
had passed man, allowed three hits
and three runs. Eddie Franck took
his place and held St. Louis to
two hits in the next eight innings,
without score.
The visitors held their lead of
three to nothing until the final half
of the ninth INNING, when the local
boys got busy. Corcoran was safe
on a hit that Fancher could not

two runners scored on Marty COL

Since the series was not COM
pleted and the count is even, each
team having won one game, the To-
cal club will try to get the St. Louis
team to come back to Omaha for the
final game of the series on their
closing field day. October 5. In
games won and lost, Omaha actu-
ally leads St. Louis, having played
four games and lost one and St.
Louis played five games ard lost
two, giving Omaha a percentage OF

1t is likely that St. Louis will
make another trip to Omaha tor the
field day events, as they are anxious
to have the title ownership decided
and also have several athletes on the
team that are crack runners and
they want to try for the prizes to be

for Ban Johnson, president of the

the St. Louis and Cleveland club
owners have filed an answer in the
suit brought against them by the
New York American League club in
the case of Carl Mays.
1t is denied in the answer that the

entitled to continue playing with the
Yakees. 1t also is denied that it
was necessary to hold hearing
with Mays present to defend him.

One of the defendants denials re-

time a temporary injunction was
first applied for, the New York

winning the pennant.
