GEOGHEGAN DENIES
NEW CASTLE REPORT
Former Manager Of Delaware
City Brands Statement False
and Misleading.
Delaware City, July 10, 1922

Delaware City. July 10. 1922
The Sports Editor. Every Evening,
Dear SIR:
In order that ] may not appear In
false light to the players and fans
OF the New Castle County League, l
wish you would print this letter on tho
Sporting Page Of your paper. In re-
gard to tho County League game last
Saturday between New Castle and
Delaware City at New Castle.
The write-up of the game that New
Castle published in the Sunday Star
stated that at the beginning OF the
fourth inning Captain GeogheRan re-
fused to let his team 60 on tho field
under any condition. stating to Um-
pire Russell that his team In dropping
out of the league race. and that on
this account the game was forfeited
to New Castle. 9 to o.
Tho above write-up was erroneous
and cast n reflection on me which was
unjustifled and entirely misleading
and which l will not let pass without
correcting.
The facts are these: On tho after
noon of the Fourth OF July. I rendered
Delaware City ball club to tho board
of directors to take effect Immediate
ly. but stated In my resignation that IL
l was wanted TO play / would do SO. On
Friday night l was asked to play by
one of the directors and / said that
l would. So at New Castle on Sat
urday. l was simply n player taking
orders instead of manager or cap
tain giving orders.
TO the best OF my knowledge, a
manager had not been elected TO take
my place by Saturday but the team
was under the direction of Shortstop
Jordan, who has been captain OF tho
team all season. l also told Manager
! Hance OF New Castle before the game
started that ! had nothing TO do with
the management of the team in any
way, which makes It all the more
queer 10 mo why l was given the
blame in the write-up. Why the game
went "a II did at New Castle | do
not know except that Delaware City
did not leave the field through any
word or influence OF mine.
