Tho Truth About tho 1919 Series

The Truth About tho 1913 Series
Friend Frank:
In Hughie Fullerton's inside story
of the 1919 serious witch means it
wasn't written out doors he says a
bunch Of crooks and gamblers and
sports made up song about "I'm for
ever throwing bali games" and sung
it in the lobby Of the Sinton at Cincy.
Well Frank we want justice. That
little parody he refers to it was the
brain fag of Mr. Nick Flatley of The
Boston American, Mr.. Tiny Maxwell Of
The Philly Evening Ledger, Mr.. James
Arnot Crusinberry of the Chi Tribune
and Self of the Bell Syndicate Inc
And we didn't choose no public
thoroughfare like the Sinton lobby to
first put the number acrost. We
sprung it in the privacy of q gided
cafe on the Ky. side where they wasn't
nobody to hear us only 1a of Gin
cinnati and the oil boys from Texas
that had bet between $4,000 and 100
thousand on the Sox according to witch
paper you read, to say nothing about
few members of Pat Moran's ball
club that must of been wondering to
themself at the time where the Ameri-
can league ever got reputation. The
song witch was a riot in more ways
@than 1 run about like as follows:
We're forever blowing ball games,
Pretty ball games in the air.
We come from Chi;
| We scarcely try;
Just go to bat and fade and die.
Fortunes always smiling;
That's why we don't care.
We're forever blowing ball games,
And the public thinks we'te square.
Now as for being a bunch of crooks
and gamblers and sports I don't hold
no brief for Nick and Tiny and jim,
but personly | am q plain honest
homo loveing bird that only slipped
twice in their life, once when I bet
on Willard and once when I bet on
the White Sox, and both times I was
thinking Of the wife and kiddics. Ia
1t my fault if the gamblers fixed the
world serious and Dempsey fixed vii
lard? No Frank
RING w. LARDNER.
Perhaps the man arrested in Pitts
burgh knows something about the
Wall Street explosion, but most of the
plotters we have trapped in our day
don't clutter up their rooms with an
archistic "literature' and propaganda.
They destroy that before they an
nihilate the Manifestations Of Capi-
talism.
1t was not, as Mr.. II. Z. Krehbiel
says, the lyrical humorst of The
Cleveland Leader who said "Toscha,
Jascha, Mscha, where do fid-
dlers get their names ?" but con-
tMbutor-cleric, we think it was-to
