New York, Oc. 10.—Nex¢ to losing a ball game the players in this world seties hate to face a crowd of shout- ing fans that gather daily outside their clubhouse. They would like to dodge out a rear door to the streets and sneak home by alley rontes. But the rub is that there is only one exit from each club nuse. “Gee, look at that crowd out there,” cxclaimed ‘modest Frank™ Frisch y terday as he peeped out of the Giants’ stronghold. “Oh, go on out, what are you afraid ot yelled Phil Douglas. Frisch hesitated and then made a wild dash for freedom. He made it only after his clothes had nearly been torn oft- him. A minute later, Douglas looked out. He turned back to wait until the erowd .became thinner. But the c-owd refused to disperse despite the efforts of a score of Private police- men. “Oh, go ahead,” smiled Burns to Douglas.

CONCERNING OURSELVES Front page statements in the Hartford Courant yesterday con- cerning the managing editor of this paper warrant an editerial statement from The Herald also. We dislike exceedingly to mix editorial opinions with our news pages but the sensational re- ports of what was:going to happen to our poor head when the state police turned their attention to us, we feel, should be an- swered as prominently as the accusations were printed. Therefore we place this on page 1. What news we print is distinctly news, obtained by our own men and offered for what it is worth. We make public no fore- casts of who may be arrested or upon what charges, particularly in the whirl of events in connection with the “rum ring” which is now under way. We assume no man is guilty until we have posi- tive information to that effect, and we try no man in our paper— merely giving the chain of news happenings in his connection as well -as we may. It was for the purpose of interviewing the Giardinos that a Herald reporter approached one of them Saturday, after they had been released on bail. He stated that he had nothing to say, he wasn’t guilty of passing a bribe and said that he had not told { the state officers anything as he could not do so when he did not know anything. We told you that story Saturday evening. Hu- manity is frail and prone to mistakes, if there is a mistake in what Gardino said we are greatly surprised. -He said it, surely. As far as tampering with the accused, whom the Courant calls a “wit- ness” is concerned—he was not forced to say anything, neither was he bribed to say anything. We are not $rying to clear the Giardinos any more than we are trying to convict them. If they are guilty, we shall tell you so when the court so decides, not be- fore. If we are guilty of tampering with a ‘““witness” for printing what a man out on bonds says, that is also for the court to decide and we await its decision. As fgr as the Giardino’s denial of denying the confession goes, with which the Courant winds up its “story,” that is quite possible. We note that the. Courant makes the state police authority for the statement—their word is un- questioned as far as we are concerned, just as Gardini’s word is unquestioned until proven untrue. We printed Captain Hurley’s statement concerning the confession Saturday evening. The Courant states that The Herald editorially said that a “loyal community’’ resents the “zttack on Richardson.” That ap- pears a deliberate garbling of the sentiment. The Herald did re- sent the attack made on New. Britain generally, the judging of New Britain people through the Hartford Courant and did recom- mend that the Courant clean up its own house, Hartford, before it picked. onj its neighhors for exercising -its. sanctimonial “designs. - The Herald did stdate that the name of the city should be cleared by proving its accused officials guilty or not guilty—and it will ae- cept the verdict of the court concerning those arrested when the verdict comes. I, as the Courant insinuates, we are guilty of any extreme offense for printing the news as we get it, we shall have to stand trial, when that time comres. The Herald’s manner of getting the interview in question, if it is to be “investigated” by the state police, not by the Courant, will be cheerfully given to the proper authorities, when they call, if they do. As an afterthought—how many noticed on page two of the Sunday Courant, a story to the effect that a Courant reporter had _ tried to obtain an interview with Thomas McAuliffe, a federal prisoner out on bail, and failed? He was “not at home” to be in- terviewed when the reporter from the Hartford paper called, ac- cording to the story. Our reporter talked to Charles Giardino, and Giardino talked. second would Kluxen, 10—The monthly tonnage report of the U. S.

Shufflin’ Phil, veteran of many a league game pitching battle, gow is in his second world’s series. But he says, he was about as much specta- tor as player in his first one in 1918 when he was with the Chicago Cubs in the series against the Boston Red Sox. That year portside hurlers had the call and Douglas’ only part was that of relief pitcher in one game.

MAY NOT NAME SUPT. Permanent Services of Physician Not Essential To Health Department, Mayor Crtis Feels. At a meeting of the board of health tomorrow afternoon the matter of the existing vacancy in the office of super- intendent will be discussed but it is not expected that a permanent man will be appointed. At the suggestion of the mayor, the salary committee is considering a reso- lution to cut the salary from $3,500 to $2,500. The mayor has expressed him- self as favoring the services of a part- time physician since he does not feel that there is sufficient work for a pro- fessional man in any capagity other than consultant. Difficulty on secur- ing the services of a capable man at the reduced wage is anticipated.
