1920 National League Pen
nant by Dropping Second
Game.
New- York, Sept. 27. New -York
was put out of the National league
pennant race today when Boston won
the second game of" a double header,
3 to 2. The Giants won the first
contest, 2 to 1. Boeckel's homer into
left field bleachers in the ninth gave
Boston its victory after New York
had tied the score in the eighth on
Prison's homer. Both Townsend
i nd Pirotte pitched good ball ior
the Braves.
New York took the opener by
hunching two of it.s four hits in the
fourth. These coupled with two
infielders' choicts and Maranvillc's
error gave two luns. After this in
ning, not a hit was made off Town
send. Nchf kept the visitor's hits
scattered. Ryan, who pitched the
second game for New York, was hit
hard in the late innings.

Kauff Started
. Base Ball Expose
Dropping of Flyball Brought
First Intimation of,
Crookedness.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, Sept. 27. Here's the
story of another base ball game al
leged to have been crooked and it's
interesting because it explains f.r
the first time the real reason why
Heine Zimmerman is no longer in
organized base ball and because it
is likely to b told to the grand jury
this week:
Late in the seaon of 1919 he
Giants were playing in St. Louis.
They weren't doing verj' well nnd
Manager McGraw was suspicious of
some things that had happened.
During one of the games.. Benny
Kauff muffed a fly ball and it proved
costjy. When he returned to rhe
bench after the side was out the af
fair started.
McGraw Scores Kauff.
"So you've joined in with the
crooks, gamblers and , are ndw
throwing ball games," was about the
words of .Manager McGraw. t
"Who's throwing ball games?"
was the angry reply of Kauff.
, "Now don't try to alibi yourself,"
continued McGraw. "You know any
school girl could have caught that
fly ball. It's a downright shame to
see a fellow like you dropping one.
You're like a lot of these other
weaklings. The gamblers have you
on tlijeir list, have they? You are
falling just like some other poor
fools, aren't you?"
By this time, Kauff was thorough
ly mad.
Denied Crook Allegation.
"Nobody can call me a crook." he
said. "But I could have . been
crooked if I had wanted to. I hart
the chance to be and I turned it
down, and now because I drop a fly
ball, you're going to accuse me any
way. Why. Heine Zimmerman of
fered me $500 to help throw the ball
game and I wouldn't do it."
That was all McGraw wished to
hear.
Shortly after that, possibljr a day
or two, the Giants were in Chicago
and on the very day of the game
that Buck Herzog was accused by
Rube Benton of offering a bribe for
him to throw the contest, Heine
Zimmerman was suspended by Man
ager McGraw for the balance of the
season.,
2imm Dropped From Rolls.
At the time the stories were that
Heine had broken training rules
andthat McGraw had dismissed him
on that account.
No other reason ever was offered.
When spring arrived Heine Zim
merman was missing. (anagcr Mc
Graw declined to give a reason,
simply saying that any explanation
of it would have to come from Zim
merman himself.
Base Ball Commission to
Draft Series' Schedules
Chicago, Sept. 27. The national
base ball commission met today to
draft two sets of schedules for the
world's series, so that should ejthcr
Cleveland or New York win the Na
tional, there will be a schedule of
games already prepared.
Another matter expected to come
up today will be th6 petition of
major league umpires for increased
pay for world service woi-k. The
umpire's have asked to work on a
percentage basis, as the players do.

return by Ty Cobb, .gave Chicago's

fast, being finished in one hour and

However, the hardhitting wrecking
t-rew of the Omahans again was
weak and with several opportunities
to put over runs they fell down, in
several cases taking three healthy
swings.
Roettger of the Overlands hurled
a remarkable pame and had the
Omaha champs at his mercy, allow
ing but three hits. He walked two
and fanned thirteen, while Wooseley
was touched for a dozen. The field
ing of the Bowens showed a great
improvement over Saturday's game,
and several nifty doubleplays and a
one-handed running catch by Man
ager Dennison featured. McAndrews
raid Grimm were out of the game on
account of injuries and Kemmy and
McCague were put in the line-up.
St. Louis starred the fireworks in
the first inning, sending two men
across the plate on singles by Man
gullo and Pilcher, an infield out and
a sacrifice fly.) In the fourth they
scored again on a single by Cooper,
who stole second and scored on
Schall's double. Singles by Man
gullo and Pilcher' netted them one
more in the seventh. Three more
were registered in the eighth.
A cfowd estimated at 8,500 wit
nessed the game. Next Saturday
and Sunday the Triple As. class A
amateur winners of the St. Louis
Amateur Base Bz 11, association, who
defeated the Ploughs of Memphis
today by the score, 10 to 3, will play
at Omaha against the Bowen Furni

White Sox and Indians Both Wi
Sox President
Convinced That
Series "Fixed"
Head of National League Dis
closes Evidence Obtained in
Private Investigation Into
"Game Throwing."
Chicago, Sept. 27. President John
Heydler of the National league to
night made public evidence he has
obtained in a private investigation of
alleged base ball gambling and
"game-throwing'' and at the same
time declared that President Co
miskey of the Chicago American:
:inrl fnnaorr filencnn were, rnn
vinced after the first world scries
game last year that the series had
been "fixed" and sought his aid it
making an investigation.
The matter was lirousrht to the at
tciuion of President B. B. Johnson
of the American league, but Johnson
did not seem very enthusiastic over
startinur an investigation, ; Heydler
A said. Heydler brought the name of
Jean Dubuc, former Detroit Amen
can pitcher, into the scandal for thi
first time and also gave hitherto un
recorded details of the Hal Chasi
artrl T pe facrep rnscs.
Heydler said all of his evidence
had been placed at the disposal ot
President Johnson, but that he did
not know whether the latter was
making any use of it.
Rtrbe Benton Gets Tip.
Mr. Heydler quoted J. C. (Rube)
Rentnn. Kpw York National Ditcher.
as saying that Dubuc was the man
who received telegrams from Bill
Bunts, tormer major lengue pitcner,
tipping him thafc the world series
had been fixed and that Benton had
received his information from this
telegram.
Benton told Heydler he had seen
Hal Chase make one bet of $100 on
the series, Heydler said
Discussing the Magee case, Mr.
HpvrtW said he and William Yecck.
president of the Chicago National
league club, had obtained Magee s
I'mifecslnn tliAt lip had attempted to
throw a game and that Magee had
shown them a check sent him by Hal
Chase, but Mr. Heydler refused to
say for what amount.
Heine Zimmerman also has been
accused of throwing games, said Mr.
Heydler, but he would neither con
firm nor deny reports that Zimmer
man w.-is released bv the New York
Nationals for. this reason. Reports
that Zimmerman was suspended a
year for trying to throw a game, and
not for breaking training as was
announced, were not denied by Mr.
Heydler.
" 'Tip' O'Neill, former president of
the Western league, came to mc
after the first- world series game
last fall," said Mr. Heydler, "and
told me that Comiskey and Gleason
felt that something was wrong, but
that they did not want to go to Ban
Tohnson because of the bad feeling
between him. and' Comiskey. I con
sidered the matter preposterous at
first, but after Gleason and I an
alyzed the games, I went to Johnson
and told him about it.
"He dismissed me with a curt re
mark. I continued to confer with
Comiskey and Gleason an:l finally
gave Johnson what I considered
good leads. I then felt that it was up
to him to act, and not my affair. The
players accused were American
league men and I did not feel that I
should meddle.
"Gleason' told me in conferences
between games that there was no
doubt in his mind that something
was wrong and that some one had
'reached' the White Sox players.
Says $50,000 Bet.
Concerning the Chicago-Philadel-'
phia National game of August 31.
which is said tihave been 'fixed
for Philadelphia To win, Mr. Heydler
said his investigation convinced him
that a deliberate attempt had been
made by some one to injure the
Chicago club. .
"Tfra'.Aant Vouin sptit a letter to
Ban Johnson saying that $50,000 was
bet ana tnat $iu,uw oi im was
Detroit," he said. "This letter was
i.,mH over tn me. but I have been
able to learn of only $3,000 bet in
Cleveland and M.oUU in incmnau.
I have not yet f;nished investigation
of this game, however."
Mr. Heydler said that the New
York National league club had done
more for base ball than any club in
either league,' .
"McGraw deliberately wrecked his
pennant chances by getting rid of
rvn anrt Zimmerman because ot
their alleged eainblitiK and game-
'throwing,' " he said.
Discussing the testimony given oy
the Cook county
grand jury., Heyi'lcr said Benton had
been quoted to him, as saying that
Herz'og offered him $800 to throw
the game between Chicago and New
Vrlr tinnleinher III.
"But when I called Benton and
u .-,,, hctV,r me " hp continued.
"Benton said Hal Chase had offered
him the money and not Herzog.
"Benton also told me tnat oeiore
fimt cranie starti'u McGraw told him
'to either 'win or buy a ticket home.'
I don't know just what McGraw
may have meant by that remark, but
at any rate New York won."
President Heydler expects to tes-tif,,-
iiefnre thp craiid iurv Tuesday.
He will give it additional evidence
which ho did not disclose ionium,
he said, including a quantity of docu
mentary evidence.

night denied that they were in any
way implicated in the alleged
"throwing of games" in the world
