investigation.
The matter was brought TO the
attention of President Johnson, OF
the American League. but Johnson
did not seem very enthusiastic over
starting an investigation. IeydIer
said.
Hcydler brought the name of Jean
Dubuc. former Detroit American
pitcher. into the affair. and also gave
hitherto unrevealed details of the
Hal Chase and Lee Magee cases.
Heydler said all Of his evidence
had been placed at this disposal OF
President Johnson. out that ne did
not know whether the latter was

pitcher. tipping him that the world
