Mr.. Veeck said he had no evidence
either to prove or disprove the charges
but would make every effort to silt
the matter to the bottom.
my impression has been that there
was less gambling this year than ever
before" he said. IT thought that 1t
might be attributed to the fact that
we went after some fellows pretty
hard last year."
Lee Magee, Of the Cubs, and Hal
Chase, of the Giants, were let out for
Indifferent ball playing" last year, and
1t was later brought out in a hearing
granted to Magee that the real cause
was that he was suspected Of having
bet against his own team in game at

holds several records. At the
Olympic games she won the spring

McGraw realized that he had the
best pitcher in the game in ChristN

1905 Matty won the pennant for the
Giants and then turned round and
beat the Athletics in the world series
shutting them out twice.
Matty was Mt the zenith of his
power in 1905 when he won thirty
seven games and lost eleven.
Matty's decline had become pro

That Christopher Mathewson at
forty should have been attacked by
tuberculosis is a matter of astonish-
ncnt to nll those who watched the
great pitcher in the days when his
name was ON the lips OF baseball
fans in every hamlet in the United
States, but those who are familiar
with the facts remember that his
brother Hank, who was a pitcher of
no mean ability and once had
trial with the Giants, died
from the disease. And when the
news came last August that Matty
had gone to a sanitarium at Sar-
onac Lake, n. Y. it was taken as n
forgone conclusion by those who
knew, that the genial big Lacquer
would never don a uniform again or
his broad smile brighten another dia-
mond.
Matty's connection with the New
York Giants was somewhat of an
accident. He broke into baseball
at his home town of Factoryville,
pu., when he was sixteen years old.
