they would decide to do was all right.
OF course even a man of his limited
scope, knew that he was doing wrong,
but he had been swayed. Words at-
died him more than the best curve
ball could do.
Still, he was guilty-and there can
be no degree of guilt in the baseball
code. a man who was tainted must
go. There was no room for him in the
game.
And, when the lad who cried out,
"Say it amt true, Joe" could get no
denial from the tall Southemer, il
marked his passing.
Jackson was still in his prime when
he was read out of baseball. He would
have been good for many years. In
all probability he would still be earn
ing fine salary in the big leagues,
and adding every day to the trimming
measures of his fame.
| But Jackson has gone. When folk
speak of him now they don't mentioa
his seasons of honest service, his
splendid hitting, all the fine things
he accomplished when he was one of
the heroes of the White Sox. They
sniff and say that he was one of the
BLACK Sox."
He can't play ball any more, and
for Joe Jackson that is the greatest
punishment of all. 1t was not only
his work but his recreation, his very
life blood. Without it he is helpless.
Where Jackson's fall could be trac-
ed to sheer ignorance, Phil Douglas
can be marked off to drink He was
drunk when he wrote letter offering
to throw" ball game. When he
sobered he realized what he had done
and tried to get the letter back, but
it had already been passed on to the
lawmakers. Douglas was dropped as
though he had committed the unfor-
givable sin. He like Chase and Jack
son, was blacklisted.
A newspaperman met him in an all.
night lunch cart not so long ago.
Douglas was broken, in his cups. His
hair has turned nearly white. All the
punishment that utter remorse can
bring is his. He has family, and it
is in want since the bread-winner no
longer is able to earn living. Step
by step he has fallen until he has
touched bottom-a hopeless, helpless
man, not yet forty.
The baseball code may be a stern
one. We give our criminals better
chance than we do those few ball
players who forget the honesty that is
born and bred in the game. There
is no forgiveness, no second chance.
The man who has slipped is hopeless
ly and irrevocably damned as far as
the game is concerned. Thumbs down
for him!
Yet, harsh as the punishment ap-
pears, it is the only one that can pre-
vail. Baseball is the national game.
Nothing must be done to corrupt it.
Better that some few men suffer
more than they should than the in
s;dious finger of dishonesty worm into
the sport. Jackson and Douglas may
have been punished more than they
deserved, but not more than the safe
ty of baseball warranted.
