ODAY Is OUT and Players Suspended in League Action
National League president Pulham announced the suspension of Lampire Heny ODay for contract violations and nonport authorization and Joseph Ward of the Philadelphia club for contract violation. George McBride of the St Louis Nationals was approved for release to Kansas City. An earlier Pittsburg game between the New York team led to a fist fight between catcher Peltz and pitcher WeGinnity, resulting in fines and suspensions. President Pelham ruled the incident could have been avoided if ODay had enforced the rules from the start.
