Mr.. Veeck said he had no evi-
dence eithert prove or disaprove
the charges, but would make every
effort to sift the matter to the bot
tom.
My impression has been that
there was less gambling this year
than ever BEFORE he said. Il
thought that might be attributed
to the fact that we went after some
fellows pretty hard last year. z
Lee Mage of the Cubs, and Hal
Chase OF the iGants were let out
for indifferent ball playing last
year, and 1t was later brought out
in a hearing granted Magee that
real cause was the fact that he was
suspected of having bet against his
own team in a game at Boston.
Veeck recently hired private de-
tectives to watch gamblers at the
Cubs park here and more than SO
arrests resulted.
The basis of the charges made in
connection with Tuesdays game Is
that Detroit, Boston, Cincinnati and
Chicago gamblers are said to have
placed $4,000 on Philadelphia.
