cause he said all the players on the

there's nothing strange about it, and
It's all right for me, too"
Others Mentioned
O'ConnelI then mentioned other
Giant players, who. he said. ap-
preached him with the same sugges-

unreservedly by Commissioner Ian
dis of any connection with the at

O'Connen told of approaching
Sand.
Before the game I saw Sand on
the field It was while we were
practicing ard Sand was on the
third base line.
II went up to him. said Sand,
who are you fellows for?' meaning
who was his team for and he an
swered, We're not for anybody.
We're finishing out the season.
"Then told him that If he
wouldn't bear down on the game
today, that it would be worth $500
to him and he said he wouldn't do It
and walked away.
He said. Nothing doing and
turned away.
"A few minutes after that I went
to the bench and Dolan said, What
did Sand say?' and I told him, He
said he wouldn't do it,"
The big fellow hung around the
clubhouse entrance as his team
mates gathered there this morning
and spoke to several who passed him.
Hello. Jimmy" they answered.
None of the Rstopped. They seemed
sympathetically inclined toward the
erring player. but left him strictly
alone.

said brusquely. 'T know absolutely
nothing about it."
Do1an, veteran coach OF the Giants,
made an impassioned protestation o
innocence today.
Il haven't been able to eat or
sleep since I heard about this thing, "
Dolan declared. i've been knocked
cold. l had nothing to do with this
thing and I'm innocent"
The game was the one in which
the Giants chnched the National

Ian instigated the plan and sought
to implicate George Kelly. first base
man; Frank F'risch. captain Of the

testimony of Dolan.

"O'Connell's confession sought to
implicate players Frisch, Young and
Kelly of the New York club. but
their testimonies, in the commission.

of the charge, which, standing alone,
was exceedingly unreasonable.

press his heartiest commentator OF

series, the loss of OConnell may
prove a severe blow to the Giants
II Captain Frisch, out of the game
for two weeks on account of an in
jured finger. is unable to play.
Under such conditions, Kelly prob
ably will play second base, Terry
taking first, and O'Connell would
have been the logical choice for cen,
ter field.
$4,000 Beauty
O'Connell has been kept on the
bench most of this season. He
came to the Giants from the San
Francisco club of the Pacific Coast
League at the beginning Of the 1928
season. His purchase price was
$500 and was greatly over rated,
according to most Giant fans. Last
year he appeared in eighty-seven
games for the Giants and batted
$50.
His greatest accomplishment this
year was in a recent game with the
Pirates, when, inserted into the
lineup in place of Meusel, he
crashed out a homer that won the
game and took the heart out OF
Pittsburgh, who lost the next two
games and their chances for the
pennant.
