THE FIX ON COLLEGE BASKETBALL ANO THAT THEIR FAVORITE BETTING GAME 1S BASE
BALL BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT IS ABSOLUTELY ON THE LEVER. HIS STORY 1S THAT
THEY FEEL THEY HAVE A BETTER CHANCE BY GETTING THE BEST POSSIBLE INFORM-
ATION AND JUDGING THE ODDS FROM THAT THAN TO RISK A DOUBLE CROSS TRYING TO
PUT OVER A SURE THING,

HE INSISTS THAT THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE HAPPENED
CAME BECAUSE THE NEW YORK CROWD FIXED UP ONE GAME TO *TAKE® THE PHILADELPHIA
CROWD AND THE PHILADELPHIANS RETALIATED,

BUT TO GET BACK TO GRIFFITH'S LETTER, HE POINTED OUT THAT THERE
WASN*T ANY TROUBLE ABOUT BASKETBALL UNTIL IT MOVED INTO THE GARDEN, CHICAGO
STADIUM AND OTHER LARGE ARENAS AND THAT IT COULD MOVE OUT AGAIN ANY TIME
THE COLLEGES DESIRED,

| OON*T KNOW THAT I*VE PROVED ANYTHING HERE, BUT | MAY HAVE

SHOWN THAT 1 °M AGIN CZARS AS LONG AS THERE*S ANY POSSIBLE WAY TO AVOID THEM,

CORDIALLY,
