base ball scandal of 1920 was one of
the mainstays of the champion Chi
cago White SoX base ball team, was
placed on probation for one year when
he pleaded guilty before Circuit Judge

The charges have been pending
since February, 1924. when Judge
Gregory ordered his arrest after he re-
pudiated his signature to a contra ct
while testifyinC during the trial of the
suit brought against the White SoX
by his foremer teammate, Joe Jackson.
who was also arrested on perjury
charges.
Felsch was originally charged with
both perjury and false swearing, but
Judge Gregory dismissed the perjury
count when the State announced it
would not oppose motion to this
effect
simultaneously, the perjury charge
against Jackson was called for pre-
liminary examination in district court
by Judge George f.. Page. Counsel
for Jackson pleaded a continuance, an
nouncing that Jackson is now playing
ball in Florida. Judge Page denied
the continuance, however, and ordered
the issuance of a capiaS for Jackson s
arrest. He directed that his $1,000
bail be forfeited.
At the trial of Jackson's suit. a
jury brought in $4,000 verdict for
the ball player, but the court set it

proved a good two-fsted battler with
an especially capable left hand. which
he worked overtime to the Indian 3

early lead entitled him to the verdict
after six rounds.
