In the last analysis the rests with President Wilson, will be appealed and the president will issue u decision, which, we believe, will favor the national game until the season is closed. President Wilson is the baseball admirer among our He attended a game ashington during the recent drive and remarked that was our cleanest and zame. 1 has said, from time to time, that ho favored the continua- 2§ near a nor- mal basis as the times would permit.
