That was the substance of the In formation given out today after the National league club owners had de liberated for nearly 13 hours over the financial plight of the Boston club, whose playing field seemed about to be usurped by a dog-racing enterprise which already had applied for a license to operate there. Called Into special session to aid in the rescue of a charter member of the circuit, the magnates finally evolved a plan which, they said, should enable the Braves to continue operation on a firm financial foot ing. No details of the plan were an nounced, pending completion of the arrangements with "certain parties" who were not represented at the meeting, but the formal statement assured Boston fans that they would be satisfied with the outcome.
