BRAVES ARE PROBING
"A LEAK IN RECEIPTS

BOSTON. July Z H1.-The bust
ness affairs of the Boston National
Base Ball Club were under investi-
cation today in an atmosphere
charged with secrecy
Further than the admission by
Manager Dave Bancroft that a sus-
picion exists that the turnstile count
at Braves Field had been manipu-
lated to make the club a loser on
gate receipts. no responsible official
would discuss the cause or extent of
the investigation
Some estimates placed the shortage
at between $4,000 and $40, 900, but
this was without yerification Other
estimates We're considerably less.
Judge Emil Fuchs, president OF the
club. left for New York at midnight
after a protracted conference with
police of the Brighton district. in
which the base ball park is situated.
Until the Investigation is COM
pleted, | think 1t would be unfair
to the person or persons who may
be involved to say anything" Fuchs
said.
He admitted. however, that the In
had been in progress for
several days, and from other sources
it was learned that private detec-
tive agency had been at work for
some time.
Secretary Edwin L. Riley of the
Braves declined to discuss the re-
ported shortage and referred all in
Quiries to Judge Fuchs.
