LANN1N DENIES
1916 CHAMPIONS
ARE ON MARKET
iJDepiU Denial, It Is Reported-
Johnson Has Found
Purchaser for Club
''CZAR" BAN ON WAY WEST
By CHANDLKR D. RICIITEIt
rrewHkwt Lantrfn, of Jhei Boston Tti Sox.
mm denied that h t to be requested to
fU the world's champions, while President
Johnson, of the American League, tit ex
. Iweted to do likewise for th present Hut
those on the Inside expressed the belief be
fora departing from Boston lut night that
' the Boston magnate would not be an Amer
loan League president when the annual
, Meeting In December waa called.
iAnnln la quoted In a dlapatch from Hos
Ion to the effect that he talked to Johnson
jttat after the final gams of the world'
erlea yesterday and that the American
League chief waa very cordial, and did
not mention anything about the enforced
anle of the lied Sox to him. !annln ad
mitted, according; to the dlapatch, tbat he
wag thinking of aelllng the franchise and
would consider a, good proposition, but that
fee could not be forced to sell.
Jehnsen Goes West
Lst night we tried to get President Ian
Bin shortly after the game, but received tha
Information from hla son that he had de
parted for Clarden City, while President Han
Johnson left for New York Immediately
after the game. In New York this morning
Johnson could not be located, but at the
Aetor House the Information waa received
that he had departed for tha West very
'early In the morning.
. There la little doubt that Johnson will
'deny that he la going to oust Lannln
lontll final arrangements have been made,
.but a man close to Johnson And Vtho has
Hooked after the American League's Inter
jwta In Boston declsrea that the man who
,ta to purchase the franchise nl ready ha ad
Imltted to closo friends that the deal has
, been arranged.
Jn some respecta Lannln has been of great
I service to the American League, but other
.magnates often have expressed dlspleaaurn
'at tho blunt manner Ip wh)ch tho owner of
tthe world's champions has expressed his
feelings ond told things that magnates are
not supposed to speak about In public.
Lannln'a Outbreak
Every magnate present at the world's
(Series agrees that Lannln'a recent outbreak
against the umpiring In the American
'League, In which lie declared that Uan John
son's officials deliberately were unfair to
tho Boston team, and he Intimated that
Johnson was responsible for their work, waa
Just as tyrannical as the famous speech
made by Horaco Fogel, which resulted In
the Phllly president being expelled from
baseball. r
Fogel declared that President Tom Lynch
Was doing everything In his power to put
the Phillies out of the race, and that tho
National League umpires were crooked, and
he Immediately was expelled. Fogel's out
break waa more blunt than that of Lannln,
but both amount to about the came thing
questioning the honesty of the game.
These magnates Intimate that President
Johnson has no other course than to force
Lannln to sell, as the "Ciar" always had
declared that ha ran his league with an Iron
hand and would not stand for many things
that BOon In the senior league.
Only a week ago Johnson declared that If
auch an exhibition as the famous exhibition
given by the (Slants against the Dodgers
had been given In the American League,
there would be "hell" to pay and that he
would not stand for It At tha time several
Brooklyn and New York scribes called
Johnson's attention to hla failure to act on
Lannln'a speech, and the "Czar" merely
smiled and declared that "that would be
taken cars of In due time."
There will be denials galore, but the fans
can rest assured that the ISvenino
LBOOBn's exclusive story will be verified by
the powers that be In the national game
before the December meeting- of the Ameri
can League la called.

PENN LOOKS FOR

Dy NEIL MATHEWS
Camaln Penn Football Team
Tomorrow we meet Swarthmoro. the third
game of schedule. That we have not under
estimated their strength was evidenced by
the drill we had yesterdsy In preparation for
the game. Kvery man knew thnt he would
have lo fight to bent fiwarlhmore. Hwarth
moro being the name or the linlslble foe
which the varsity pushed before It In Its
march down tho field during signal practice
Knowing this, cery play waa rtin off as
hard as though the real Hwarthmore team
were opposing us.
Consequently wo hsd n mighty good work
out during slgnnt vractlce. followed by a
half hour of dummy scrimmage. In which
all the plays were rchcarsod nnd run
through. livery one agreed that he had
had enough when Hob said "That'll do."
This Hwnrlhtnore team Is heavy, I under
stand, and has a fast, tricky backfield, a
combination which Is apt to prove most
troublesome. They follow tho ball closely,
nndake advantage of tho other team's mis
Inkesj at least, that Is how they beat La
fayette. Our offense has Improved In the last
week. 1 believe we have our playa working
smoothly enough to cause jnost nny team
trouble. Tho scrimmage showed that our
defense Is still with us. The men are all In
good shnpe, physically and mentally. I think
the team ns It lined up for practice yester
day probably will start the game: Derr,
Jtoss, Williams and llell In the backfield,
with the line the same as It wan In the
Frnnklln nnd Marshall game: Urquhart and
Miller, ends; Nelll nnd Wlrkman (or Robin
son), guards; Little and myself, tackles, and
Wray, center
