Fogel says: ”1 wrote to Herrmann and told him to keep off my team, and if he has any deals to make to arrange them with me and not try to have a couple of Cincinnati newspaper men do the dealing.

The result is both shirked after being disappointed. “Now the false reports are going out about Knabe. I don't think it will af fect his playing, but you never can tell. At the league meeting last winter there was a long discussion of this very thing, and it was made very plain that these false statements of offers for certain players work injury to the team and to the whole league.
