Chance was not In favor OF remit

the American League won't last

Mr.. Freedman that I had already re-

left the matter in that way. ! immed-
lately wrote TO Connie Mack, explain
ed the situation. told him / q was
threatened with a suit by Mr.. Freed
man, and asked him If he would
stand behind me in this suit. To this
communication I received no reply.
I repeat that Mack knew nothing OF
my ability as player. except through
hearsay, and no doubt thought If
there was going to be so much trou-
BILE in getting possession of me, the
game wasn't worth the candle.
"In any case. / eventually returned
to the fold of the National League,
and the beginning of the season
found me pitching for Andrew Freed

forgot to return the $50 TO Connie,

meh Manager O'Day and President
Thomas got together and passed
hard and fast rule that any player put

chief offender.
Once or twice when President Tener
would have suspended Zim for three
days or more. he was persuaded not
to do so because of the fine the club
made him pay He insisted. however.
that the culprit was not TO receive any
