CHICAGO, Oct. 3. Base ball player
who will write their own newspaper
stories of the world' or other post-sea
on series may do bo with the approval
of the national commission, President
Johnson of the American league aald
last night on his return r.-om a brief
vacation In Michigan. Players who lend
tbelr names for a monetary considera
tion to be signed to artlclea written by
others probably wilt be declared 'Ineligible
to take part In such, aerie, Mr. Johnson
asserted.
He did not favor the suggestion re
ported. to have been made by Chairman.
Ojerrmann of the commission to call off
the world's series In cae players per
mitted the misuse of their names,
"The purpose of the commission Is
not to prevent players' earning extra
money In any legitimate way,' said
iPrcsldent Johnson, "but to stop the fak
ing, which Is bound to do base ball a
rertous Injury unless It Is curbed. In
the public's mind the great pitcher who
will accept money for the use of his
name In connection with stories he does
not write -would be just as likely to ac
cept money to throw a taae .ball game.
The man who will conspire to cheat the
public In any way cannot be trusted to
keep faith with others.
"If any player wants to write bona
fide articles for a newspaper during
the world's series let him go to the head
Quarters of the national commission af
ter the game. We will furnish an ex
pert stenographer, to whom he can dic
tate his story. The typist will take two
copies, one of which the player can send
to the paper, the other we will keep for
the commla'eJoR.
"If the paper publlthes the story as
the player prepares It there-will be no
objection. This, I fhlnk, Is- a fair chal
lenge to the playens.and (t will protect
the public I do hot believe that one
ball player In 100 can write stories which
newspapers will wajnt to- print or which
patrons will oare to! read."
Mnjr Me 'Last "World's Series,
NEW YOIUK. Oct. 3.-Thls year's may
be the last .to see a world's series, ac
cording to' base, ball ' gossip here. In
many quarters agitation for the aban
donment of a world's series each fall and
the substitution of an lnter-league post
season series In which all of the sixteen
major league oluba could share has been
gotnc on for some time and according
to the reports here at least one of the
three members of the National Commis
sion but suggested It may be feasible to
dd awaywlth the world's series after
this year. It is said that August Herr
mann, chairman of the commission and
owner of the Cincinnati club, has
broached the Idea with a plan that the
regular seasons be reduced to 112 games
in each league to be followed by an Inter
leaguo schedule of alxty.four games. In
which ch National, league-team would
pJo;4ouV Mine4 at home and four abroad
wth each American league team. The
total winnings percentage for the two
schedules might determine the title of
world's ctvamplon.
The present wrangles between members
of the New York and Philadelphia team's
Which would be parties to the champion
hip fight JhU year, and In the National
Commission because oi the rule prohibit
ing aerie players from, writing or allow
ing their use of their names over news
paper stories ha given impetus to1 the.
argument for the abandonment of thu
big series after this year. Those argulnir
for such action point out that out of six
teen major league clubs only four have
shared In the world's series npolla since
