PUN POST-WORLD’S SERIES

President Tener Advances Proposition to Have Champions Play Against a Picked Team. President John K. Tener of the National league advances the attractive proposition to stage a post-wOrld’s series on the Pacific coast next fall. The proposition involves the world’s champions against a picked team o. the best playersiin the various leagues. To say the least this is novel, and I have no doubt it will be extremely taking to the baseball followers on the coast who have little opportunity to see the big fellows in action except during training seasons. In order to accomplish what President Tener proposes certain legislation will have to be put through the national bodies, but if the rulers are convinced that the meet would be attractive and profitable, there is little doubt that the necessary legislation will be forthcoming. The people of the Pacific coast are good ball patrons, and I see no reason why a post-series game like thia should not be staged for their benefit, especially '« it promises ample re* turns. "
