Three times fn the past there; have been scandals arising out of signal stealing in the big leagues. | In one case the guilt of the club wan clearly shown, and later even | boastfully admitted. That was the old Philadelphia club, a team of great hitters. There was a clever little catcher named Morgan Murphy who was smart and quick and who grew too fat to catch, The way that Philadelphia team batted was criminal They were mad {f they didn't get two hits a day each Teams Complained teams complained Then they watch ed that Chiles, an ped at third base in Other and kicked They his eyes on the club house and called certain fixed signals Then they discovered Murphy tn | the club house with a pair of strong field glasses, watching the catch- | ers signals and flashing them back to Chiles, who tipped the batters what was being pitched, The opposing teams thought that would end ft. But Murphy immediately started | signalling by the simple device of ising and lowering an awning over a window That was stopped. Murphy traveled with the team, hired rooms overlooking the park and signalled to the batters. One day the explosion came. Chiles was coaching at third, and opposing players noticed he kept his foot In one spot all the time. They made a rush at him. There was a scram a fight, and the visiting players dug up a box connected with the club house by wires. Inside the box was a buzzer and by feeling with his foot, Chiles got the signais. The National league did not pun ish any one The next big outburst came when | George Stallings was manager of the New York Highlanders. The} hitting of the Highlanders was so | that several teams were suspicious, The pitchers claimed | the New Yorkers hit at balls that should. have fooled them and let others go without moving their BULL BROS.
