There's something a wee bit
clear In the case of Charley Her
2og, Chicago Cub infielder.
Charged openly by RUDE Benton
OF Offering him a sum Of money to
throw bail game, IGer2og has
been resting under a cloud. At the
Gathering of che wise men In the
east John Foydler completely ea'
oacratod The Cub infielder.
This sort of half way clears the
matter IN, but President Veeck,
Of the Chicago clrb, says that waiv-
ers have been asked on Charley and
II he is released we will tell him
why when the time comes"
Veeck also says that there Is ab-
solutely nothing against Herzog as
regards his honesty.
Herzog Is gratified to be given
a clean slate by the National
League prexy, but he'd kinda Ike
10 know what tho why" is that
Vcccl5 saye he'll announce when
the time comes"
1t looks like Herzbg escaped one
clord only to be again plunged into
tho mists.
He is a veteran Of II years and
wasn't up to his usual stride last
wear after a serious accident dur
ing spring training.
Yet the fact remains that cloud
is hanging over, him still.
