Sensational Developments Are Expected in Investigation of Worlds Series Scandal
Jim Bagby to
Oppose Kerr
In First Game
By Unit!
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. 23. This
town la baseball mad.
Not svsn world'a serl could attract
as much'stteritlon and excitement aa tha
three tmti between the White Sox and
Indiana, the first of which beams Thurs
day. . Loeal officials declared tha demand for
ticket la ao great that they will open
tha rates at 10:30 Thursday mornlns;.
Tha fans epect lo see Cleveland clinch
the pennant in thla series.
This optimism extends ta.the Cleveland
club and tha management. In fact, it
baa been announced at the ball park
that reservations for tha world's aertea
have been completely sold out. The
White Sox will have to make a clean
sweep of the series before Cleveland
fan or player will admit Chicago has
s chance (or the pennant New York ia
held to be absolutely out of the race
for first place. .
Cleveland has never had a world's
series. The closest It ever came was In
1008 when It lost the pennant by half
Kama.
Meanwhile the White Sox players ra
diate confidence. They assert that thla
is their chance to topple Cleveland from
the lead.
, The batteries for the opening- game
probably will ba Kerr and 8chaltc for
Chicago, Bagby and O'Neill.
DODGERS NEED TWO GAMES
7 TO CINCH NATIONAIj FLAG
New York, Kept 23. (U. P.) A Na
tional league communique today said the
Heds were decisively defeated and had
retired to the fastnesses of Cincinnati
to rebuild their forces for the 1921 cam
paign. The Reds definitely slid but of the
list of pennant possibilities by losing
two games to Pittsburg yesterday while
the Dodgers continued their triumphant
rush by defeating Boston. Brooklyn
failed to shake off the Glanta entirely.
The New Yorkers theoretically remained
in the running by whipping the Cub.
, The task before the Dodders today
was to win twA more games. They have
felx conteata left, five of them with the
Giants. Allowing the Dodgers two more
Victories while the Giants win seven,
dropping one to the Dodgers, the final
standing will be:
Club Won. Lost. Pet
Brooklyn if 1 3 .591
New York 90 64 .584
' If the Ulants relax only enough to let
the Brooklynltes win one of the final
aeries, the best that can happen will be
tie.

CHICAGO. Sept M. (I. N. 8.) J. C
-Rube" Benton, pitcher for the New
York Giants, In an Interview given today
before ha aooeared before the Cook
county grand Jury Investigating baae
"tall's latest scandal emphatically denied
charges by Charles "Burke" Henog, cni
cago Cubs second baseman, that the New
York hurler had won $3300 by betting on
Cincinnati in the world'e" aertea in 191.
DEFIES WIXIUJTO
"I never won $3800 on any baseball
game or any aeries," Benton said. "After
Hersog and- a number or oiners nam wra
me I could make some 'easy money by
throwing- a game between New Tork and
the Cubs last season." Benton said, "1
Went into the game the next day and put
everything I had Into my pitching" and
carried off a victory and double-crossed
these framera that ere apparently try
ing to throw a game."
I Inferring- to the affidavits said to be
In possession of Hersog and mads by
Arthur Wilson, catcher, and N, D.
"Toney" Boeckel, third baseman of the
Boston Braves, concerning Benton's bet
ting on ths 1811 world's series, Benton
described them aa "pure bunk."
ARE PURE BC5I
"Those two affidavits, of Wilson and
Boeckel." he said "are pure bunk. The
only betting I did on the world's series
I did In a saloon In New York. I bet
the drinks for the crowd. 1 bet on Cin
cinnati and put up 320.
"I stayed there until ths game was
over, and when Cincinnati won I threw
the money on the bar and aald. 'Drink it
up.' "
Asked if he had heard of any telegram
having been received by anyone connect
ed with the team during the world's
series. Benton said :
"Yes ; several of them. I will give the
grand Jury the names of those whom I
know received telegrams. I was in the
room of Gene Dubuc, following the close
of last season when the New York team
was barnstorming in Vermont and the
bellboy brought up a telegram. Gene
opened It and I saw the top line of It it
said : 'Put your money down on Cincin
nati.' I also know of several other tele
grama that were received about the
world'a series."
TO GIYE J CRY TELEGHAM8
These other telegrams, Benton said, he
would give to the grand Jury.
On top of other charges, Benton said a
"tribe of handbook men" made It their
business to get "chummy" with baseball
playera for the purpose of influencing
games In favor of their betting busi
nesses. Herzog, when Informed of Benton's
charges, lost no time In denying them.
"It's a He !" Henog said. "Benton'a
been telling that mesa of trash for a long
while. I reported It to the club owner
myself, and it was all threshed out. This
la very unjust. I have been a player of
good reputation for a number of years.
There was no necessity for me playing
at all this year. I could have retired."
nEKZOG CLAIMS HE HOLDS
TWO PLAYERS' AFFIDAVITS
Chicago, Sept 23. (I. N. S.) Organ
ized baseball's newest scandal, which
simmered and bubbled at the first ses
sion of the grand Jury Investigation yes
terday, is expected to come to a boil to
day when J. C. "Rube" Benton, pitcher
of the New York Giants, appears to tes
tify. The possibility of a number being
scalded Is admitted by those conversant
with the situation.
Benton la expected to answer the
chargea made by Charles L. "Buck" Her
sog:. second baseman of the Chicago
Caibs, that the Olants pitcher won $3800
by betting on Cincinnati In the world's
series of 1919, after he had received a
telegraphic "tip" from Hal Chase, former
Giants' first baseman, that it had been
"fixed" for the Reds to win. Benton is
expected also to back up hla charges
that he was offered $800 by Hersog to
"throw" a game to the Cuba In Septem
ber of last year.
HEttZOO DENIES CHARGE
Affidavits are in Hersog'a possession,
and have been made public, that Benton
"scraped together all the money he could
net" and wagered on Cincinnati In the
last world'a series. The affidavits were
made by Arthur Wilson, catcher, and N.
D. 'Toney" Boeckel. third baseman of
the Boston Braves. Wilson and Boeckel
allege that Benton, in a conversation In
the Braddock hotel, in New York, last
April, declared he had received a tele
gram from Chase advising him to bet on

ifersog declared ha bad obtained tha
depositions from Wilson and Boeckel
after Benton had charged him with, of
fering the pitcher a bribe to "throw" a
game to the Cubs. "Buck" declared he
went to the office of President John
Heydler of the National league when he
heard of Benton's charges and demanded
an investigation. Benton was called in,
Hersog declared, and reiterated hla
charge in the presence of President
Heydler. After an Investigation. Heyd
ler gave Hersog a letter, the player al
leges. In which the head of ths league
expressed the belief that Hersog never
had been involved in baseball gambling.
The letter, Hersog says, is In his pos
session. TO ASK SHOWDOWN
Hersog's chargea against Benton and
Benton's charges against Hersog are
only one angle of the investigation the
grand jury has undertaken. Assistant
State's Attorney Harvey Replogle. con
ducting the investigation, has made the
public declaration that the 'last world's
series was not on the square," and that
"from five to seven players on the White
Sox team are involved."
Fred Merkle. first baseman of the
Cubs, whose name has become involved
through mention of the fact that he was
replaced by Barber in the Cube-Phllllea
game which Is aid to have been "fixed."
declared today he would call for a
"showdown" and demand that his name
be cleared. Merkle said he was "tired
of being the goat" and that the charges
were "silly."
"I have been In baseball a good many
years," Merkle said, "and I can honestly
say I never heard of a 'fixed' game.
There would be too many persons to
frame a deal like that."
Merkle visited the Cubs' park this
morning with the announced intention of
demanding that President William u.
Veeck take steps to clear him of any
suspicion.
Beplogle's statement is believed to
have been inspired by testimony given
before the grand Jury by Charles A.
Comiakey. president of the White Sox;
Ban Johnson, president of the American
league, and other witnesses who appeared
yesterday. Details of the testimony of
these witnesses have not been made pub
lic Both Johnson and Comlskey, how
ever, are known to have made investiga
tions when charges of "crookedness" fol
lowed the world's series last fall.
NUMBER TO BE CALLED
A number of wellknown baseball men
players, managers and magnates, are yet
to appear before the grand jury. Among
them are : Charles A. Stoneham, presi
dent of the New York Giants ; John Mc
Graw, manager of the Giants ; John O.
Seis, secretary of the Chicago Cubs ; Ray
Schalk, White Sox catcher; Barry Mc
cormick. National league umpire, who
officiated at the recent Cubs-Phillies
game, which is declared to have been
"fixed" in the Interests of gamblers ;
Samuel W. Pass, a White Sox fan, who
is paid to have lost heavily in the last
world's series ; Players Paulette and
Rawlings of the Phillies; Hugh Fuller
ton, Joe Vila and William Birch, baseball
writers.

AT THIS GREAT
CWTlifi SALE
TWO WEEKS XGO when we began this great sale we said prices were too high and
would decline. Since then government reports show commodity. prices are. less and
woolens have dropped considerably. Clothing prices must follow, although slowly.
If you knew that losses were inevitable wouldn't you reduce prices drastically when
clothing demands are strongest move your stock rapidly take your loss at ONCE
and release your capital for advantageous buying at coming lower levels? That is what
we are doing. There's notaiystery about this sale. It is simply sensible merchandising.
