BOSTON, August 21-A special
meeting of the American League
club owners has been called for next
Tuesday at Philadelphia, President H.
H. Frazee of the Boston club said to-
day.
President Johnson of the league, in
issuing the call, gave no reason for
the meeting, but Mr.. FraZee said he
thought the death Of Chapman, the
Cleveland star. and the leagues atti-
tude toward Pitcher Mays. who threw
the ball which killed him, would be
considered. President Johnson is IN
derstood to have obtained statement
Of the Cleveland club, who was re-
ported so much affected by the play
er's death that he was unable to ac-
company his team here today.
Mays Likely to Play Today.
NEW YORK, August 21-Carl Mays,
pitcher of the New York American
League Club. probably will be in the
game against the Detroit team to-
morrow. Mays today made his first
fortunate accident which resulted in
the death of Ray Chapman, short
stop of the Cleveland team The
Yankee pitcher warmed up" near the
right field bleachers, but after the
game with Detroit started, he went
to the clubhouse.
The fact that Mays INDUCED in
practice today was taken as an indi-
cation that Manager Higgins intends
to work the pitcher in his regular
turn. and it was said that if Mays
had sufficiently recovered from the
shock of the Chapman accident he would
pitch tomorrow.
Ty Cobb of the Detroit team, who
was quoted in Boston as saying that
some drastic action should be taken
against Mays because Of the Chap

for the decathlon, and which JIM
Thorpe had to forfeit at stockholm TO
Weislander of Sweden in 1912 because
of the charge of professionalism
there is so little difference that both
Hamilton and Loveland may be
justly proud of their laurels.
Figures as Tabulated.
The official placing before review
ing the figures gives Loveland 6.114.-

Vidal of the United States Army got
a place, but was seventh with
6,359.57.
Although Loveland failed to score
a single first, he made equally good
time with several others in the
dashes, and his performances. in the
high jump. the pole vault, the 1900
meters and the shot-put and discus
were so consistent that he secured
second, third or fourth. He thus ap
parently outpointed Hamilton. who
won first in the shot-put and the 100
meters and did we'll in the broad
jump, the javelin and discus. but got
only seventh in the 1900 meters and
eleventh in the high jump.
At the finish of the $500 meters, the
tenth event in the two days, Hamilton
fairly staggered into the arms of
friends and was assisted off the field.
1t was the same story with the other
ten competitors who survived the
preliminarieS.

Belgian Committee, Facing Huge
Deficit, Throws Open Gates
and 10000 Gather.

ANTWERP. August 21.-Faced with
a huge deficit because of lack of at
tendance. the Belgian Olympic COM
mittee today threw more than two
thirds of the seating capacity Of the
stadium open to the public without
charge. AS a result, before the end
of this afternoon the structure was
almost packed to it's full capacity of
10000.
This action was taken. it was
stated. because it was realized the
Belgian people simply could not AZ
ford to pay even the equivalent of
80 cents in American money to see
the Olympic contests. The Belgian
government has agreed to meet the
deficit because it deems that the
permanence of the stadium and the
fact that OlympicS are held there will
arouse the interest of the people in
sports and improve the physique of
the nation.
The Belgian committee had a fund
of only 100000 francs to build a
stadium and cover all expenses of
the games. which at the present rate
of exchange was only about equal to
5000, 900.

Disposing of yesterdays scheduled
engagements completed just half of
the original bookings for the open
ing week of the series. OF the ten
games to be played in the first elm
ination round of the independent
Mines title fight, but three have
been decided. One between Aloysius
club and the Winstons resulted in a
tie and must be played off after the
regularly listed games have ended.
Two Have Qualified.
The second round, of course. will
include but four games and should
be quickly completed. The Silver

only ones that have qualified for the
second series. The Nets have yet to

In other than yesterdays exhibit
tions there has been little of note.

augurate the independent series. but
the game was curtailed by darkness,
Generally the pitching has been up
to the standard set in other annual
series, but the fielding has been SLOW
enly and slow. However, having
rid themselves of stage fright usual
ly shown in the early play OF
the series each year, the players may
do better this week.

Two errors injected into the second
inning proved the undoing Of the
Marines. These misplays were di-
rectly responsible for the Nets first
tally. Deck. after singing. moved
up a notch on Houseman's out. went
to third when Miller made a poor
heave to catch the Met runner nap
ping and tailed after Spear had
anuffed Bells loft. The Marines
evened the count in the third. when
Degnan. hit by a pitched ball, was
sacrificed to second and crossed on
Snyder's safety.
From then on Bell and Singleton
fairly outdid themselves at slabbing.
Each team had opportunities to
count, but the pitchers were always
equal to the occasion, until the ninth.
when Singleton weakened and al
lowed the Nets to bunch a pair OF
singles for the winning tally.
