named Hahn. who halls from Cincin

"One morning while we were out
Bunting I asked him about the world

whom he worked in Cincinnati as bet

"He said certain players on the
White Sox team had visited Pittsburgh
before the series was played and made
arrangements to throw the games for a
price. He said that the plajers de
manded $100,000 to 'lay down' so that
the Sox would lose, and this was paid
them.
Weaver Not Named
"We discussed various plajers on the
team. Buck Weaver's name was not
