Giles Says No Cheating By Burdette Milwaukee (U.R) Milwau kee Braves right-hander Lew Burdette, who was cleared of spitball charges by the National league president, today asked for a "public apology" from Cincin nati manager Birdie Tebbetts. Burdett said he felt he was "unjustly and unfairly accused" by Tebbetts last week of being a "cheating spitballer." "I feel Tebbetts owes me, my wife and children a public apol ogy," Burdette said. "I've al ways been an honest pitcher and have never intentionally vio lated any rule in baseball." When asked bis reaction to Burdette's request for a public apology, Tebbetts said in St Louis where his Redlegs were playing, "I have nothing to say," then walked away. Nothing Personal He then stopped and said, "no comment." As he walked further from the group of reporters, he stopped againd and said, "All I did was check on the rule itself. There was nothing personal about it." National League President Warren Giles said studies made by him and league umpires had found Burdette innocent of any wrongdoing on the mound. "Rather, Giles said, Burdette was using smart psychology, not cheating in his delivery." He said Burdette wets his fin gers before throwing the ball, but that's legal as long . as he dries them before the ball leaves his hand.
