By I. E. SANBORN. , lliloago Tribune-Omaha Bee leased Wire. Cleveland, 0. Sept. 25. Chicago's White Sox did their best to give the lie 10 me report tney did not dare set into the world's series of 1920 hv licking the Indians today in their filial clash of the year by a score of 5 to 1. This left the White Sox half a. game ' behind ; the Indians with three fewer games to play than Cleveland lias. Lefty Williams pitched a remark able tame atraiust the Indians con sidering the strength of the' enemy and the latest developments In the grand jury investigation. He held them to five hits and would have shut them out oik a clear field, be cause the only run Cleveland made resulted trom an easy fly out into the crowd -back of Strunk in , the nrd inning. ' -; Nearly 31,000 fans jammed their way into the' local Blant and bv in vading the short tight field arena ade any healthy fly hit in that di rection good for two bases. In spite of that the only smash into the crowd that cut any figure in the re sult was a little fly by Sewell in the third which Strunk woud have cap tured easily on an open field,, as it lit just over the tiearby ropes. Doubted Ones Are Stars. The White Sox who, are on the "doubtful" list are the men who won tlie game. Joe Jackson lammed a home run high over the right field wall in the fifth inning with the bases empty, and that 'blow ended Coveleskie's term on the slab. In addition to his "Babe". Ruth blow, Mister Joe hammered 6ut two dou bles, each of -which landed against the right field wall, and would have be'u good for two sacks anywhere. In addition to Ms ; remarkable pitching fear, 'Williams delivered two safe hits in four times up. One of them was a double, which scored a run in the fourth. The Sox got the jump in the first innirg, largely on cracks in the In dian defense. Two were but when E. Collins, singled and Jackson shot a liner against the right field wall for two bases. Felsch hit a bounder to Gardner, who threw wild and let tfm Eddie Collins score. John Collins a v - mi a nasty oounuer 10 jeweu,. wno L . Js pegged on the Douna to iirst and sent Jackson home, while J. coiuns reacnea secona. KisDerg rolled out. That was enough for Williams to win on. The Indians score1 their only run in the third on Sewell's little ...fly into the right field crowd for a double, followed by two long flies by O'Neill and Coveleskie. ; Bagby Pitches Well. The White Sox came back with two runs in the fourth on singles by Felfch and Risberg and a double by Williams Jackson's home run came with one out and nobody on in the fifth, and finished Coveleskie's work for the day. Bagby went on in the sixth and shut the White Sox out with three hits the rest of the viray, but Williams did better than that. After the third inninir, he allowed onljk two hits,' and only one Indian. got as far as second Dase. - The Indians tried to start some thing in the ninth, when W'amby led ' off with- a safe hit, but a brilliant double play snuffed out that rally, Speaker hit sharply to JohriTollins, rwho speared the ball on the bound, touched first base, retiring Speaker, then threw to second in time for a double. Risberg had to take time out to dry up a bloody nose after retiring Wamby at second, but came , back and stuck on his job., CHICAGO. 1 CLEVELAND. AB.H.O.A.I t AB.H.O.A. Strunk, rf S 0 4 8! Evans.

Fans Wonder if Walker Bill Can survive a Year With - Managers, Promoters, Boxers Scrapping. By H. C. HAMILTON. International Kens Service Staff Corre . spondent. New York, Sept. 25. The Walker bill, which legalized boxing in New York state, one of the best, laws governing the.., ring sport ever spread on the' pages -of "a ''statute book, already has received some heavy blows. Promoters,, boxers and boxers' managers already have. started wrangling and fussing with such, effect that sortie fans are won dering1 if the Walker bill can sur viye a full year. New York ever has been hard.cn its special privileges. They nearly always have v been abused. The Frawley bill, which permitted 10- round no-decision bouts, was killed, off quickly and effectively t through a row between promoters atjd boxers.-1 If wrangling?" continues the Walker bill will meet the same fate. Rickard Leases Garden. The i Walker law sot a famous start when Tex Rickard announced' he had leased Madison Square Gar den and would conduct bouts there. Rickard's long record of honesty in boxing, his square dealing with everyone' he-comes in contact with brightened the future, of boxing as probably nothing else could have done. His resignation from the In ternational Sporting club, however, coupled with the fact that A. J. Drexel fiddle followed shortly aft erward with his resignation and then aligned himself with. Rickard, cre ated a bad feeling in the camp of the International and caused some officials., of ; that organization to make statements , that attracted un due attention. , It was patent to the most uninitiated that .there was some feeling between the rival clubs, even though Rickard was content to let the contention fall flat and go' on his way without mak ingany remarks. Tjiat incident caused some won derrnejit,' but it was forced into the background shortly afterward when Dan Morgan announced that Eddie Fitzsimmons would not carry out his agreement to fight Benny Leon ard in v.Mdisn Square Garden, Morgan probably forgets that box ers cannot ; sign agreements and break them willy-nilly; . uffder the terms of the Walker., law. .

' The Bowens have made a remark able showing in local amateur base ball circles this season, first winning JUST A MINUTE With the Sporting Editor J - By J. A. SHANAHAN. . The Massachusetts state boxing commission has twice refused a per mit to Jack Dempsey to fight in' that state on the ground that his pros pective opponent was not a ''logical contender" for the world's title. Bill Brcflnan was one of the prospective opponents and Frank Moran the other. "Logical contenders" are rare articles. With the exception of Harry Wills, and that one a "slim" exception, there is not a heavyweight inthe game today who could be styled a "logical contender." , ' I The .White 'Sox and the Indians enter the home stretch todayl In Chicago, the White Sox crew meet the Detroit Tigers today and again tomorrow. Monday's game is the contest postponed from April 12. And then nothing to do until the three-game series at St. Louis October 1, 2 and 3. Cleveland opens a four-game series at St..

They have but four more dates while the Indians have eight and the Sox, five.; V v i ' A;, ' ' '. ' , Press dispatches say that Walter Mails the Cleveland recruit cost the Indians a big chunk bf money.- Mailfc was a good purchase at anyprice. His presence on the team coupled with that of Sewell has proven, just what the team needed ' after the blow dealt it by Carl Mays. Whether Sewell or Mails will be eligible to play in the world series should the Indians eventually win out is to be settled Monday in Chicago at a special meeting of .the. National base ball commission. Unless a player is the property of and js actively associated with a "club on August 20, he can not, under the rules, 'take part in th world series. On account of the death of. Ray Chapinan it is. thought the National commission will make an exception in Cleveland s case. the boxing license commissions see fit to interrogate him.' I j ' : Wanted to "Frame." . " L f Later it developed that another boxer had been offered a mill in New York with the champion, with the result that he declared he would not think -of such a thing unless the champion would agree not to knock him out. He said he didn't care if the champion wpre given the deci sion, bat he did hot care to have his earning capacity ruined or injured by a knockout at the hands of the champion. v There is no doubt that these mat ters have reached the ears of the commission. The members of that body, however, may take the stand that, inasmuch as their organization was tiff, functioning when the events took place, they have nothing to' do with the matter and then trust to the better sense of all concerned not to let sch things .happen again. ' , it really would be a very black eve for boxjng if the Walker law should be throttled. ' It permits bouts f 15 rounds to a decision under such close scrutiny that boxing is practically lifted from anyistiema that maV have attached to it. The law will be care fully watched in other states. If promoters, boxers and others! con nected with the game cannot take of the Veterans tackle; .

Rescheduling of Games Creates Many Tangles mm M y National League's Plan Much Superior Anieripan's Mag nates Have Disregard ed Laws. , . By I. E. SANBORN, .. There have been some peculiar twists in dealing with postponed games iiv the American league this year, which demand legislation to prevent theni in future. The method of playing off stich, contests is en tirely different in the National league, each major circuit having its own rules. But the magnates of tlict junior league have been disregard ing their own constitution or by laws ojF Jate. For ihstance on September IS, an open dale, Philadelphia played off in Cleveland a postponed game' which wfcs originally scheduled for Philadelphia. In the repot I of the game it was nonchalantly an nounced that this game was "auto- 1 .matically" transferred from the Quaker City. That statement was not true. If it were true, Washing ton Vould have played oft on the " same open date, September 15, in Detroit, a game which was post poned in Washington on August 28, and couVd not be played off in the Capital city. A rule works the same in all cases. What the Rule States. As a matter of fact1, the Ameri can league rule regarding post poned games requires that the con sent of the other c lubs in the league shall be obtained when it is desired to transfer and play off a postponed game which cannot be disposed of on the grounds where it was orig inally scheduled. Although such consent never has been refused, so far as recalled, and although the other American league owners undoubtedly would have consented to the transfer of the Indian-Athletic contest, neither the Chicago nor the New York club was asked to consent to the transfer. In stead the attempt was made to have it appear regular by the announce ment that the transfer was "auto- -ma tic.". -.". v Different in National League. . This is all the more misleading to the fans . because in the National league such a move would have been not only "automatic." but com pulsoryj The old league's constitu tion provides that every game scheduled ihall be played, if possi ble, and! if the weather or other con ditions (prevent completing the al- , lotment of games booked for any city,' such postponed games snail- not may be , played off on the grounds of the other team in a sub- , sequent series, if there be such sub sequent series. : , The National league's rule i3 much the better of the two, as it -prevents anjf chance of 'tinsports manship and also provides for couif pleting the schedule if possible. , Three-Cornered Tangle. Another Wangle arose between the Chicago, Detroit and St Louis . teams of the American league. The White" Sox and Tigers agreed to play off a postponed game in Chi ago on June 24, Van open date for both teams, on Which the Detroit " club was booked to jump from its home city to St. Lcuis. It was per-i fectly simple to'do so bwayjof Chicago and stop off here for the day. " -' Instead of keeping that agree- . nlent, the Detroit team was sent to St. Louis to play off a postponed , game there on June 24 in fldvance of the series booked! to open in the Mound city on June 25. .Ameri can league rules give a home, club the rieht to compel a team to remain and piay off a postponed game on an open date following any regular ly scheduled series, but this did ndt give St, Louis a right to claim the open date prior to its series 'with " Detroit ' . ' 1 No Such Fuss in National. Again the National league method is much superior, because it would have prevented this tangle. In the old league, when any game is post poned, the home team is ream red to notify the visiting team's manager on what date that postponement will be played off, either as a double header, or an an open date ,if there be one. V The visiting team has the right to object-if the proposedvplayoff com- , pels an impossible or costly railroad jump. If not, the visiting team ac cepts the date for the playott, tne secretary of the National league is infermed of the arrangement, and the new date is entered on the of ficial schedule, thereby becoming a regularly scheduled engagement which cannot be changed by any whim of either club owner , In former days, when the Ameri can league was a happy family, its lax rules worked all right, but - things have changed.
