It seems, but they didn't have a thing on Carl up to the unfortunate Chapman In cident. " v. . . WAST HIM OUT OF GAME "When that happened they probably figured the time had come to discredit Mays, and probably drive him out of baseball. 4They wanted somebody to Btand for a story censuring Mays.! They couldn't get it honestly, because none of the DeAroit or Boston players, would con demn Mays so they wrote and printed stories anyway." " I Cobb discussing how he was 'Inter viewed, said : y I "I was called out of bed by th tele phone very early Tuesday morning. The man at the other end introduced him self.

I told him "I hadn't heard about tt and that I had nothing whatsoever to, say about the matter. I may add that at the time I wondered whether the man was telling the truth, as it seemed mighty strange to me that the Boston players would be up and . around at 7 o'clock in the morning circulating pe titions. ., ,. "That conversation was absolutely all I had with any newspaperman in Boston, and every man on the Detroit team in sists that he didn't talk to any reporter, yet it has been stated In the newspapers that we are going to blacklist Mays, which is an utter, downright lie., i .
