.LANO|S WARNS
MAJOR LEAGUERS
TO PLAY FAIR

Chicago. ILL.,, April 12-Federal Judge
Lands. baseball commissioner, to-
night warned major league baseball
players that they were facing a hard
proposition in regaining the confidence
or the public and that while a spirit
OF fairness makes the fans forgive
errors, the public would never forgive
a man who didn't take a chance.
Speaking at n banquet to tho two
Chicago major league teams he urged
the players to try their hardest.
Never before has anything been
lscrutinized as will our activity be
scrutinized this season he said III
a man gets caught off first, IL he
muffs ball there will be winks OF
eyes in the stands and an I told you
so whispered.
We must put up with that for a
while and the characteristics OF fair
play Will soon snuff out that attitude,
The public always deals with its
affairs on the merits of the case. We
must play the game as hard as ever
No hanging back when We see a hard
chance for fear OF that mutter in the
stands. Don't be afraid. Take chances
and fight always.
They say l have a spy on every
baseball field. 1t is needless for mo to
deny that. The rehabilitation of base
ball lies with you players.
The only thing l can do is to try
to protect you from the influence that
wrecked puEilism, racing and other
sports-the gentlemen who would de-
bauch the cructfix to win a bet.
While I am doing this, however, 1
want you men to set high standards
