Johnson of tHe American League in Chicago on Saturday, Pres- ident H. H. Frazee, of the Boston team, the league leaders, ~announced tonight. President Frazee said the proposal to play the first three ganles in Chicago was unfair to the Boston team. He suggested as an ideal ar- rangement ihe first two games, Wed- nesday and Thursday, September 4 and 5, in Boston, and the next two on Saturday and Sunday ,September 7 and 8, in Chicago. He did not refer to the other games of the series, if any are required. “If the Boston club wins the Ameri- can League pennant I will refuse to abide by the schedule arrangements for the world's series as given out by President Johnson in Chicago on Sat- urday,” Mr. Frazee said. “Such a schedule is not only very unfair to the Boston club, but it is an insult to Bos- ton fans and to the baseball town in the American League. ‘While it has been the custom for the contending owners to toss a coin to de- cide upon the place of the opening of the series, I do not mind waiving that formality and plaving the first two games in Chicago and then coming to Boston for two games. But I absé- lutely opposed to playing three games in Chicago ‘and then’ as President Johnson says. ‘playing the. remaining games if any (whatever that means) in Boston.’ “The ideal arrangement would be to play the first two games on Wednes- day and Thursday in Boston and then the next two, Saturday and Sunday, in Chicago. The schedule as given out by Mr. Johnson will necessitate the pass- ing up of both the Saturday and Sunday dates which I think is a big mistake. The series shoyld so be ar- ranged that each club shall have an equal chance to win. The expense of an extra irip between the two cities should not be considered at all. There is absolutely no reason for curtailing the series. “Secretary of War Baker has given hils official sanction to the affair and the clubs will have until September 15 in which to play the regulation number of games. “I am quite in sympathy with all the other plans outlined Ry Mr. sunn- son and I look for a series up to the standard, both in general excellence of play and in popular interest.” Ready for Readville Opening. Readville, Mass, Aug. 25.—Turfmen from all sections of the country reached here for-the opening tomor- row of the five days’ Grand Circuit meeting. It has been six years since America’s greatest trotters and pacers have met at this famous old trotting park.

REVIEW OF WEEK IN THE MAJORS New York, Aug. 25.—Chicago made sure of the National League pennant today by winning the first game of a double header with Brooklyn. Chica- 80's probable American Ledgue oppo- rent in the world series will be Bos- ton, ‘which leads Cleveland by four | games and Washington by five. The 1918 National [eague leaders increased their margin over New York last week by winning seven games out of nine, while the Giants won only two in six. New York won one game out of three with Chicago and also with Pittsburgh. In the American League, Boston di- vided two games with Cleveland, but gained on the Indians by taking three out of four from St. Louis, while Cleveland was held even by Washing- ton in four games, The Red Sox twice won games from St. Louis on four hits. Jones of Boston held Cleve- land to two hits today RAT. TENNIS TOURNAMENT TO OPEN TODAY New York, Aug. 25—Play in the thirty-seventh annual singl cham- pionship tournament of the TUnited States Lawn Tennis Association will begin tomorrow upon the turf courts of the West Side Club, Forest Hills, L. 1.

Lindiey Murray, formerly of California, but now located at Nia- gara Falls, N. Y. The proceeds of the tournament will be devoted to various war charity funds. Playing will be held- daily, ning at 1.30 each begin- afternoon and will FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL SATURDAY'S MARKET. New York, Aug: 24.—Buying for both accounts including extensive covering of short contracts was wit- nessed in today's broad and active stock market, some leaders register- ing_maximum quotations of the year. The remarkable change of senti- ment was caused as the further de- velopment, such as the further sweep of allied forces western war arena and signs of eas- ier money as indicated by the inten- tion of a leading banking house to lend call money on high grade ool- lateral at a rate of d the local Federal Reserve bank. “oremost features of two hour ses- sion, in which the turnover or 32 000 shares far exceeded any full day of the week were Canadian Pacific which made an extreme advance of eight points. retaining all but the emallest factions, and U.
