I'VE would like to have the

$4,000 baseball players who have
drunk themselves to death or who
became so unmanagebale that the

There are thousands of profes-

country AS a class they are just
as well behaved as any other class
of men in the community. There
is no need of the national COM
mission formulating any rules 10

The writer's for these "highbrow"
weeklies should find out something
of the true state of affairs in the
baseball business before they at

each of the big league officials
present to tell the young amateurs

the game were.
All paid tribute to the youths of
America who make the game what
it is today-that is, all but Fogel.
When called upon to speak, the
former Phillie president not only
accused everybody attached to pro-
fessional baseball, but went for
Connie Mack and said that when
Silk OLoughlin made the famous
decision that many have claimed

Ebbets became 50 boiling with rage

the POSTMASTER to have Foge ST

for short time, but Fogel finally
sat down and then Ebbets told
every one present the real facts in
the case. Connie Mack then in his
diplomatic way poured oil on the
troubled waters and asked the
young men to remember that F'o-
gel did not know anything about

Neither Mandot nor Rivers has

Some Of the boys who in few

ties retained their senses and are
today useful and respected citizens,
with bank accounts and large bust
ness interests. Others, however,
became absolutely unmanageable
as the unusual flow of yellow coin
rolled into their pockets, and while
many drank themselves to death,
others became so useless that, even
though they were still young and
should have have been in their
prime, the minors would not har-
Dor them.
1T is time that the national
