Neverthe- less he preferred to meet Dempsey in }‘rxnrr. sked what he thought of his chances jvith Dempsey, Carpentier re- plied: “f understand Dempsey is a great fighter.” JOHNSON CALLS OFF MEETING; CONFLICT SLATED FOR N. Y. Chicago, Dec. 8.—President Ban Johnson of the American League, ac- companied by five “loyal” club owners. departed tony - New York to ac- cest the challenge of the three “rebel” directors and attend the meeting call- ed” for Wednesday to settle the con- test for +he presidency of the league. The controversy will be fought out on the ground chosen by /he minority directors of the league—Charles C miskey, owner of the Chicago club, Harry Frazee of the Boston club, and Col. Jacob Ruppert, owner of the New K club. he decision to attend the New York meeting was reached by the five loyal club owners at a secret meet- ing this afternoon. After the session, President Johnson announced that the meeting called for Chicago on Wed- nesday had been called off. This ac- tion was taken on the advice of coun- sel in the belief that the quickest way to straighten out the tangle was to compel the opposition to “lay its cards on_the table of its own choosing.” George W. Miller, counsel for Presi- Sent Johnson and his-associates, said ‘that the majority club owners did not by their action admit the right of the \directors to call this meeting, but it was their desire to compel a show- fown. “If the three club owners— Messrs. Comiskey, Ruppert and Fra- ree—met in New York and the other 'five in Chicago.” Attorney Miller said, {“there might be further litigation to |embarrass the league. The three di- STECHER THROWS ZBYSZKO IN TWO HRS g, and throw the league into éndless liti- gation. “To circumvent this possibility the majority -ownets decided to meet the minority on their own - ground ‘'and settle the dispute at once,” All five loyal clubs were fully rep- resented. Thud‘:were in_ attendance: Clark Griffith ‘of the ~Washingtons.

I told him we would not yield from our stand, but I believed I convinced him .that the meeting called by-the board ‘of directors was the oniy legal meeting that could be held: and that any meeting held in Chicago |- would be illegal. Mr. Navin took a train for Chicago shortly after our conference. © “We are glad, of course, at the de- cision "of the Other clubs to come here in response to our call for a meeting. We take no arbitrary stand, but we are convinced the’ cGhditions of the past must not'be repeated and that hereafter no man can have the President Comiskey of the Chicago Americans,’ who is alleged with the faction opposed to Johnson, also ‘left for-New York tonight, RUPPERT SATISFIED WJTH JOHNSON'S ACTION New York, Dec. 8.—Col. Jacob Rup- pert of the New York Americans ex- pressed satisfaction ‘today when he read a_dispateh from Chicago stating that Ban Johnson, league president. had cancelled his callfor the annual meeting of the league’in that city and had agreed to_attend the meeting called in New York by Messrs. Com- iskey, Ruppert and Frazee. “So Mr. Johnson’s coming here, 1 he?” asked Col. Ruppert. “That's fine, At last he bas found he had no au- thority to call the meeting in Chica- 8 i .a question as to wheth- er wawal of the proceedings brought to injoin Johnson from holding the Chicago session were in the nature of a comprom’s~ Col. Rup- pert_said: “No, indeed. The suit was with- drawn because too many iong drawn out technicalities werec involved. There was mo compromise,” INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE REELECTS FULTZ PRESIDENT New York. Dec. 8—At’ the annual meeting of the International Baseball league here today, the club ~owners agreed on a playing schedule of 154 games. The season of 1920 will open ‘WWednesday, April 21, and close on Monday, Sept. 20. The eight club cir- cuit will besmade up as follows: To- ronto, Buffalo, Rochester. Syracuse, Baltimore, Jersey City, Reading and Akron, The Ohio addition to the circuit was arranged through the transfer of the Binghamton franchise to Akron, where a new ball park is to be built by a loeal syndicate. Ernest Landgeraf who held the Newark, N, J., franchise, had it trans- ferred to Syracuse, N.'Y., where he and Joseph Dunteé ‘will ‘operate the club. David L. Fultz was reelected presi- dent, secretary and treasurer of the league, and it was unofficially said that the executive's salary. was almost doubled for the ensuing’ year. HUSTON ADMITS NAVIN SOUGHT TO SECURE PEACE New York, Dec. 8—Col. Huston, one of the owners of the New York Amer- icans, admitted tonight that the club owners _opposing Ban Johnson, pres- ident of the league, were approached last wek by Frank Navin, president of the Detroit club with a view to bringing about peace in the Ameri- can league. “Navin first approached E4 Bar- row, manager of the Boston club, on a deal,” said Col. Huston, “and after rectors might set up the claim that itheir meeting was the legal one, and mot having a quorum, might adjourn that had with Harry Frazee, president of the Boston club. Frazee asked me whether I would meet Navin last FINANCIAL AND MARKET WAS DULL. New York, Dec. 8.—Although many important factors influencing the stock market remained unsettled over the week end, prices were disposed to move forward during the greater part of today's dull and uncertain session. Sentiment as reflected by market let- ters was more hopeful respecting the Mexican situation and the coal strike. The increasing serfousness of the fuel shortage was manifested, however, by further reduction or complete suspen- ston of operations at various centers of todustry. Failure of the United States supreme court to hand down declsions in the much-discussed stock dividend and prohibition cases now before that tri- bunal occasioned some disappointment, but did not extend beyond a few is- sues. Another slump in foreign exchange, with sterling. francs and lire at great- est discounts ever known, was neutral- ized in part by the § per cent. rate for call loans. In the last fifteen minutes of the session, however, call money rose to 8 per cent, 10 per cent. being quoted at the close. Reactions of one to three points ac- companied the money flurry, the tone changing from firmness to irregularity in hte final dealings.

SENDS APOLOGY TO SEVERAL COLLEGES Philadelphia, Dec, $.—The football committee of the University of Penn- sylvania announced tonight that an apology would be sent to the Swarth- more, Pa., State University of Pitts- burgh ang Lafayette College teams|. against which Walter 1. Pearce, a sub- ]z stitute halfback, played as a member of the Pennsylvania team. The state- ment said that Pearce has admitted that he played professional baseball last summer, making him ineligible to be a member of the Pennsylvania football team. Pearce played in the Three I league part of last summer and joined the Chicago Nationals in the last month of the season, Pearce, the statement said, ‘reported late for football prac- tice this season and ‘avoided signing the statement of amateur standing and t f ¢ t was overlooked because he reported after all othor players had signed. Pearce wjis not permitted to play football after t™ cvaches learned of his professionalisnt. The, committee took no action in the case of Ben Derr, regular member of the eleven, who is alleged to have played professional football this sea- son, because rumors affecting his amateur standing were not admitted by Derr nor proven to be true. Unofficially, it was said that the athletic council at a meeting on Thursday will take action toward :\i new standard of athletic eligibilit: and will insist that all teams it plays live up to it. - Heretofore Pennsylva- nia has never questioned the amateur standing of members of opponent teams.

Ralph Greenleaf ,Wiimington, Del., went in- to the lead tonight in the American pocket billiard tournament by defeating- Jerome Keogh, of Ro- chester, N. Y., with whom he had been tied for several days. The kcore was 125 to.66. It was the first match Keogh has lost. Greenleat ‘displayed the best 'form he has shown during the tournament, his safety play being almost perfect. A number of times he left the balls in such a position that it was impos- sible for his opponent to make a point. Up to the sixth inning the Wilmington ‘player had not scored, but at-this point Keogh left the balls open and Greenleaf made a run of 46, his highest of the match. After that Keogh did not have a’chance and .in the nineteenth inning Greenleaf went out with an unfinished run of forty. Keogh’s run ‘was 25. Greenleaf has now won five games and lost none. In the other matches Joseph Con- cannon, New York, defeated .Numes Maturo, Denver, 125 to 115; Charles | Seeback, Hartford Conn., beat Edward 1. Raiph, Hightstown, N. J., 125 to 175, and Bennie Allen, Kansas City won trom Morris D. Fink Philadelphia, 125 to 100. SUPPORT SHOULD BE GIVEN LOCAL TEAM Sporting Editor:—At the local 2 C.
