By JACK VE10CK, International News Sen ice Sports Editor. NEW YORK, Oct. 20. Baseball is facing the gravest rrisis ia its history today. With the magnates split into two factions and the gauntlet virtually flung down by both sides, there is bound to be an upheaval that will either wreck or save the game.

The eleven -magnates who met in Chicago are in deadly carried. They are not bluffing. They will do just as they said they wonld do if Ihe "defiant five," fail to roine over. The Johnson faction has tlixee courses open to it. It can join bands with the eleven who stand solidly arrayed for the formation of a new government for baseball; it can form a league of its own, or its can get out of baseball.

The Oaks ar better fixed for the start of next season than fbey have been, any other year at this time.
