i World Series Plans Studied By Officials Leaque Presidents Meet With Landis Chicago- Sept. 15—(UP) — Pateball commixxioner Kenesaw Land)* announced today that the first game of the -world xerie* will be played September 30 in the park of the National league winner. Chicago S-pt. 15—<l'P> Ba***ball commissioner Kenesawr M Landis confers today with league and dub officials on arrangements for an historic world series in which the competing dubs will donate the majo- share of the gate receipts to wa.- relief agencies. The meeting, normally held early in September to permit all clubs with pennant (bailees ample opportunity to arrange details, was delayed this season while efforts were made to gain approval of relief groups and government officials to the distributing plan At a meeting here Augrntt 27, the major league advisory council voted to donate the bulk of the serie* receipts to the American Bed Cross and the I'nlted Service organiza tlons. However. Red Cross officials at Washington yesterday told the I'nlted Press It had not received an invitation to share in the receipts. • I-andis said he had not been in- ' formed of the Red Cross and the I C S. O.'s decision* on the offer ! which it was estimated would net them approximately M 79.000 if the series went to full seven games. "If the Red C-oss and the I'. S. O. can't take the money or do not want it," l*a.i'lis said. “We’ll find some other w'ar agency to donate it to." The amount to be donated to charity was staggered on the Jiasis of the number of games the series goes. The estimated amount if the aerie* went the minimum of four games was *357,455. Conferring with lamdis were Sam Breadon. president of the league leading St. Louis Cardinals: National league president Ford Frick, representing the second place Brooklyn Itodgtrs; and American league president William Harridge. representing the New York Yankees who yesterday clinched their second straight pennant. ! The Dodgers act of nominating league president Frick ax their delegate instead of sending their club head. Larry MacPhail, to the confab caused < otisiderable tonguewagging Many dhserver* regarded the act ax a new admission l>y MacPh.de and his associates that the j once "Beloved Bums" can't catch the rampaging Cardinals who nowhold a lead of one and one-half Kames. This is probably the first important meeting lince MacPhail too kcliarge of Ikidger fortunes that he has waived an opportunity to present hi* own emphatic ideas on i any subject. Current* plans rail for the serie* to open in the National league city on Tuesday. Sept. 29. If the Cardinals wlnn the pennant there will be off-days for travel between the secund and third and the fifth and sixth game*. ——— l « 'O—<" ■■<-' — mi JAP FIRE BOMB (Continued From Pag* 1) an old modei-T Ford engine that wa* sputtering and missing." Clarno said. “I remember thinking it sounded like It was running out of gas. “The bomb was dropped far enough away so we couldn't hear It. Harold Gardner, the lookout on Mt. Emily, saw the tire and had it under control before any other ranger* could get there.” Gardner told the army that the plane vanai a kmal). single-engine M-plane with a single float and I small floats on the wingtips. It was

Secretary of 'he treasury Henry Moigenthau, Jr., said last week that the live percen. victory tax Included in the revenue bill would not “do the job" and that 'forced ’ savings" would be necessary. ~ The last minute changes In the tax bill made by the senate committee did not greatly affect the revenue yield Drafting experts went to work on the bill today to put it in shape for senate debate starting Sept. 2X.
