HeydIer Asks MGgee
to Speak His Piece,
Then Watch His Step
No Telling What Might
Happen if Lee Can't
Furnish Proof.
BY JACK VEIOCK,
international News Sports Editor.


NEW YORK, March 25.-The next
move in Lee Magee's private war with
the Chicago Cubs and the National
league has been put squarely up to Magee
today.
President John Heydler of the National
league has invited Magee to speak out
and promises that in the event the
player produces evidence to uphold the
charges he threatens to make, the Ma
tional league will take prompt and effec-
tive action.
In accepting Magee's challenge, Presi-
dent Heydler has broken silence with
regard to unpleasant rumOrs regarding
the so-called betting evil" that has in
directly been working a harm to base
ball and fandom is awaiting develop
ments with a great deal of interest.
President Heydler's stand that there
are no charges against Magee on file at
National league headquarters and that no
further attention will be paid to Magee's
case unless the player comes forth with
evidence, calls for a showdown. In a
telegram to a friend in New York today
Magee said:
II have not at any time made any
threats as to what we would do when
we bring suit against organized base
ball for a just hearing. If l have been
quoted as doing so it was done with
out my knowledge and against my
wishes"
Magee evidently refers to a statement
alleged to have come from him and made
public yesterday.
Robert Aleorn, counsel for Magee,
promises TO make Magee's charges public
on Saturday In letter to President
hearing" This Mr.. Heydler has re-
fused to do unless Magee can produce
proof that the charges he is prepared
to make are true.
