Frankie Frisch, Young and Kelly Given Clean Bill of Health in Scandal Lasp - ■ V5. ^ Attorney Brothers Exonerates Big Three of Giants Sa\s O’Connell's Testimony Does Not Flare Stain on Record of “Cozy" Dolan. Ry .\«M>rlnt^d PrrM. YORK. Krb. 4. I I —Three New York I s. 1 Giant players— i Frankie Frlseh. I Ross Young and George L. Kelly— named by Jimmy O'Connell as im plicated In his at tempt to bribe Helnle Rand, Philadelphia Na tional league shortstop, were enmplgtely exon erated hv Assist __ ant District At torney George N. Brothers, In a re port made to District Attorney Ban ton todnv aftpr the state's Investiga tion of the scandal. The assistant, district attorney con tends that O'Connell may he guilty of a violation of the penal law govern ^^^itig such eases, by virtue of his own testimony and the testimony of Sand, hut that the question of Indicting O'Connell would await (he return of Commissioner* Tauidis from Panama. Mr. Brothers also contended that O'tVnnpH's testimony does not place a stain on the record of Cozy Dolan, also named iiy O'Connell as being the instigator ill Die bribe, hut the Dolan's status remains un changed due lo (he indecisiveness of his answers during the hearine before I.audis and during his own investigation. “There is no legal evidence to justify Die belief that Kelly. Frisch and Young had anything whatsoever to do with this alleged In ill'," said Mr. Brothers. "There is no evidence that they had any knowlcdgc whatsoever of the al leged bribe. This, coupled with their excellent reputation and their man ner in answering questions before Commissioner I.audis and myself, points strongly to their Innocence. “Assuming that O'Connell is telling the truth In relating xvhat he claims these players said to him, in my Opinion such statements do not come within the decisions defining what Constitutes aiding and abetting, etc. as set forth in section 2 of the penal law. There is no corroboration or ine fitat amenta of O'Connell that "Cozy” Dolun induced him to commit this offense. However, as appears in the record submitted by Judge Landis. j>olan by his answers in claiming not to recall the alleged talk with O’Con* if three days previous, brought ^*"^suspicion upon himself which has not Don removed by my examination of 1 )olan.” When informed that the investiga tion did not produce any evidence against Dolan, John J. McGraw, manager «*f the Giants, said today, "I am glad for "Cozy" Dolan’s sake, as this should give him a chance to earn a living again.” ED ROMMEL LEADS DUCK PIN MEET Baltimore, Feb. 4.—Ed Hummel, pit. hlng m e of the Philadelphia Amerl'-nne, who lives here, leads the Maryland male duck-pin howling championship tournament score J.000, for 25 g.-imes, an average per g .me of 120 flat.

I ■ > 1 S.S.S. will rid you of boil*, pimple*, blackhead* and akin eruption*! DON’T CLOSE your eyes to the warning which Nature give# when angry, painful boils appear on your neck, face or other parts of your body. Bolls, pimples and so-called skin disorders are the re sult of an Impoverished condition or the blood and are not to be trifled with. It is nothing more than folly to expect to get absolute rellpf from the use of local treatments, such as ointments, salves, etc. Such remedies may afford temporary re* lief but you want more than re lief; you want a remedy which will rid you forever of the tortur ing disorders. And the one remedy which has no equal Is S.S.S. S.S.S. stops bolls and keeps them from coming, S.S.S. builds blood power! That Is what, makes fight ing blood. Fighting blood destroys Impurities. It fights bolls. It fights skin eruptions—pimples, black heads, ecxema! It always wins! S.S.S. has been known since 1828 as one of the greatest blood build ers, blood cleansers and system strengtheDers ever produced. There are no unproven theories about S.S.S . the scientific result* of each of It* purely vegetable medicinal Ingredients are admitted by authorities. Begin taking H.H S. today and clear your skin of those blood disorders! ^ 8. S 8. It a«M •• alt good , % drug atoraa In two Mixta.
