Meanwhile, the Dallas Times

Assn, player as saying that the
Chattanooga Park is “nothing but
a gambling casino.’’
An Atlanta writer, Bob Chris-
tian. quoted another source as
saying that several if not all the
cluhs in the association cooperat-
ed with gamblers during the last
three seasons.
Christian wrote that agreements
between players and gamblers
usually did not affect the outcome
of games but dealt with such
trivialities as “fouling off pitch-
es." He was asked today to tell
his story to a Georgia grand jury.
One player reportedly was of-
sixth to coast in for the win.
MULESHOE PICKED up one in
the first, one in the third and three
in the sixth, before closing out with
a single tally in the seventh.
Lamesa got only four singles,
with walks and errors taking up
most of the slack.
Muleshoe also collected only four
base blows. Jim Cabrera hit a dou-
ble for the only extra base blow of
the game.
Jim Wyatt gained credit for the
win. Dixon Ray started for Mule-
