Alleged Betting Coup

If, as reported "a clique of gamblers
really did attempt to make q, killing
through the medium of yesterdays
anne between the Clevelands and
Yankees, the piotters failed most sig
nally. According to THE details of the
sch enc, false reports were spread to
the effect that Meusei and Pratt had
been killed and Ruth terribly injured
in automobile accident. The OBJ
ject of this report was to stimulate
betting on the Indians, and the news
was sent broadcast.
Evidently the schemers must have
set down the Yankees as sure winners
of yesterdays game, for it is alleged
THAT the sure thing I1layers received
juicy odds, and that thousands of dol
lars were placed on Cleveland by
dupes who were nlisled by the report
of injury to the Yankees.
OF course, the story of disaster to
Ruth and his mates was made out of
whole cloth, and then the C1evelands,
playing against the regular Yankee
team. including Ruth. Meusel and
Pratt, dr1rhbed the New Workers by 4

much money on the Yankees to win
even though they got heavy odds, they
lost their cash.
