That resolution OF the American
League directors eXOnL -&ting the New
York club from using a system for
tipping Oft the signals Of opposing
teams Is somewhat of a political curl
osity. but one which win carry little
weight except with those interested
persons who have decried the story
from the first. The resolution, as
printed expressly does not state that
there was no such underhand scheme
in action. on the contrary, to a man
whose mind is capable ct one iota or
logic. the resolution distinctly carries
the impression that there was such
scheme in operation. but that It was
not known TO the club. which may
be interpreted to mean the owners, for
the players and the hired manager are
merely employees, and are called Club
only when the newspaper writer's are
looking for synonym for team"
Had the directors worded their de-
cision to the effect that there never
had been a tipping bureau" then they
would have left a mere difference OF
opinion about the value Of their YER
dict but they have so obviously side
stepped the real issue that they leave
the matter worse than It was before.
The directors have practically rendered
a Scotch verdict Of mo, proven"
