HERMANN ACCUSES MCRAW OF
TRYING TO DISRUPT HIS CLUB
Giants Leader Declares In Syndicated Article That Manager
Charlie Herzog of Cincinnati and Hal Chase Are
Bound To Have Run In Before Season Ends

World of June 6. In which McGraw
predicted that Manager Herzog. OF
the Reds, and Hal Chase would have
trouble before the season is over,
"McGraw's writings are a deliber-
ate attempt to stir up dissension In
the Cincinnati club" said Hermann.
''The New York manager always is
trying to cause internal troubles In
other clubs, and l am going to try to
stop him, SO far as the Cincinnati
club Is concerned.
Chase and Herzog are getting
along together In the best manner
possible for the good of the team.
They have had no quarrels. and I
don't expect them to have any. l
don't think they will. unless McGraw
or men OF his kind succeed in causing
them to clash. This story of Nc
Graw's is a deliberate attempt to
cause a break between them and spoil
the Cincinnati clubs chances in the
race, as both Chase and Herzog are
playing grand ball-far better than
they could If they were to quarrel.
Ban Johnson stopped American
League players from writing for pub
dent Tener TO take the same action in
the National League"
McGraw in his story also quotes
George Stallings, manager of the
Braves, as saying Chase and Herzog
are bound to have bust before the
season is over. Chase says Stallings
Is the only man In baseball with whom
he ever had any trouble.

1t was new record for the race
and the second victory for Dario
Resta. He set the mark over a 500
mile route last year at 97.5S miles
an hour and at that time he trav-
eled the distance faster than any man
had ever made it before. Resta won
easily on the last lap but up ia that
time he had engaged in two duels of
speed, first with Rickenbacher for
more than 100 miles and then with
De Palma for 1913 miles. And there
