QMC this afternoon
New York, Jan. 18—(AP)
A basketball gambling scan
dal erupted yesterday with
disclosure of an attempt to
fix Tuesday night’s Manhat-
tan-Depaul game and arrest
of two former Manhattan
players accused of throwing
games last season.
The players were Henry E.
Poppe, 24, and John A.
Byrnes, 22, co-captains of
last season’s team, charged
with taking bribes in the
Siena, Bradley and Santa
Clara games.
Assistant District Attorney Ed
ward F. Breslin of the Bronx said
each received about $5,000 in
bribes, Byrnes played this- sea
son for Bridgeport in the Ameri
can Basketball League.
Also arrested as alleged “fixers”
were Irving Schwartzberg, 36, his
brother, Benjamin, 35, and Cornel
ius Kelleher, 35. They and the two
former players were charged with
conspiracy and bribery.
Kellogg Refuses Bribe
The case was broken when Jun
ius Kellogg, 23, of Portsmouth, Va.,
six foot, seven inch Manhattan
Negro center, refused a $1,000
bribe to help assure a Depaul vic
tory.
"■Irllitread he notified authorities
—and jManhattan won, 62-69, in an
upset over the Chicago Catholic
College.
Breslin hinted that scandal un
earthed so far may spread to other
colleges.
He quoted Kellogg as saying
that Poppe, in urging him to take
the bribe, told him other players
in New York and other cities were
“doing the same thing.”
Poppe Unaware of Bribe
Kellogg said Poppe boldly walk
ed onto the court during the pre
game warm-up to give Kellogg his
final instructions—unaware that
the Negro had reported the bribe
offer.
This was the second major col
lege basketball bribery scandal in
recent years.
Five Brooklyn College players
signed a statement in 1945 saying
they received $1,000 to throw a
scheduled game with Akron at
Boston. The game was not played.
Two men were arrested on gamb
ling charges.
Poppe was arrested early yes
terday in his home and Breslin
said he admitted the bribe attempt

and of his own participation in
