MONEY IN The
GAMES WOULD
NOT PERMIT IT.

Philadelphia, Oct 26.-"Sure
touched the plate" declared Larry
Doyle, of New York Giants, on his
arrival here today for the sixth bat
tie of championship series with the
Athletics 81 had Murphy's throw
beaten a mile, and there was no
question about my getting there first
or touching the plate, either"
Doyle was emphatic in his denial
of report credited to Umpire Klein
that he did not touch the home plate
when he slid in with winning run on
Merkle's sacrifice fly to right field.
Several writer's today quoted Klein
saying that he saw Doyle slide over
the plate without touching 1t. "If
the Athletics had protested, he would
have been compelled to call Doyle
out"
