PAGE SIX POET ————— BASEBALL WAR ‘MAY RESULTN “BIG LEAGUES Heydler Says Responsibility will Not Be His if it Comes About TALKS GN THE NEW PLAN Chicago, ‘Oct. 20.—If the action of eleven major league baseball club owners in going on record as favoring abrogation of the national agree- ment, which governs professional leagues, results responsibility Il rest with the five American league clubs which have not yet signified their intention of taking t in the proposed reorganization, esident John Heydler of the Na- tional league, said last night. in a statement. The eight National league clubs and the three American league clubs —Chicago, New York and Boston— did not! declare war vocated ‘control of baseball by a trib- unal of three men. not financially in- terested in the game, but were mak- ing a declaration of principle to save the game, Mr. Heydler said. “The action was the cumlination of careful and dispassionate delibera- tion of men of unquestioned sincerity and honesty of purpose and who are determined that in no other way can the revision of baseball government be accomplished and the jyst de- mands of the Ameriéan- public be met. Not, Responsible who have’ so pledged themselves ronstitute not only ele- eenths of major league mem- bershi but. they represent more than three-fourths of the capital ‘in- vested in the ‘sport. They have charted their gourse and ¢ompact- ed to see it through atall hazards. ; “Theirs is a declaration of prin- ciple—not a declaration of war. Protective measures and ways and however, have been provided for al eventuality. “If it does mean war, then the re- sponsibility for war myst rest. with thése who deliberately, hose to re- main aloof from the cdfincils of their friends and busitiess associates at this time when the integrity of the game is at stake. “| wish to reiterate that at no time has it been the purpose of the National league, nor will it be, to in any, manner interfere in or eas oF to dictate to the American league or any of its component clubs as t the conduct of their own affairs. We have confined ourselves solely to ‘ex- tending cordial invitations to their president and the club owners to meet with us. “Rather. than war, I say the door of welcome is wide open and we again plead with all to take their proper plage in. line so; present a united front in this fight for the com- mon good.” JIéhnson Wow! Talk Probability of a baseball war was freely discussed by baseball men here, many of them called to testify before the grand. jdry investigating the baseballyscandal.’ While President B. B. Johnson of the American league, refused to be interviewed, friends of * his declared an attempt was being made to oust him from the American league presidency. Men who were not favorable to Johnso: said his ap- parent opposition to’ reorganization imply a continuation of his op- position to the club owners who sided against him last winter. Some baseball men’ professed to see the solution of the problem in the meeting of minor Jeneue officials at Kansas City Novem! 9, saying that which ever side the, fninors sided with would win, for tHe other side would be unable; to obtain ball play- ers and would, be “starved out.” ANOTHER WORLD. SERIES FIXED? JURY IN PROBE Chicago, aQeteo.20.—The special grand jury ‘investigating. the base-. ball ‘scandal yesterday received evi- dence indicating that a . gambling “ring” had planned to “fix” another world’s series in addition to the 1919 one between Cincinnati and Chicago, but that the plans were never carried according to Hartley Replogle, “assistant state’s attorney in charge of the inoniry. Mr. Replogle refused to say what “world series it was. The jury heard further evidence concerning the activities of Hal Chase * ~ while in the major leagues, delved into the baseball pools conducted in -Chi- cago, and .also interested itself in thé proposed reorganization of bascball as outlined at the meeting yesterday of. the eight National league club owners and representatives of three American league clubs. S Ban Johnson, American eague . president, and John Heydler, Na- “tional league head, were the chief witnesses. Other high baseball offi- cials called’ to testify were excused. Johnson was said to, have presen- ted new evidence concerning gam- bling which he has gathered in the last few weeks in New York and other cities. The jurors questioned Mr. Johnson concerning the proposal of ‘pasebah reorganization, but he re- plied that “he knew nothing. about it.” ATHLETE DROPS DEAD AT TAPE Chicago...

IN RING FEUD - ‘\ TEDKIDLEWS BRIT TON Ted (Kid) Lewis is going to try to prove ‘that “You can’t keep a good man down.” The rink feud, extending back over a period of five years between Lewis and Jack Britton, is to be resumed in Cleveland on ‘Oct. 25. They have been matched by Pramoter Tommy McGinty for a 10-round hout as the; lid-opener of Cleveland's indoor win- ter shows. The welterweight title has been passed back and forth between these two boxers twice already. Lewis earned the decision and the! title from Britton in a 20-rounder at ! Dayton, O., back in 1917, after the! two had fought a long string of no-{ decision battles. Britton pursued Lewis and won the! crown hack the next year at Canton, O., on St.-Patrick’s Day by the kayo route. has been going out of his class to box middleweights. He recently return- ed to this country in excellent condi- tion and looking for trouble. The champ has made a fortune out of his title. His cleverness and-ring smart- ness have kept him out of the danger of all contenders. And now there is a chance that the welter crown may be shuttle-cocked back to Lewis in the coming fight.
