He knew the fix was on, but took no money. It is beyond belief to say that no other players on the team besides the 8 accused knew that the fix was on. You think Ray Schalk didn't know the games were being fixed? Also I'm not so sure any player of the day would have notified authorities of a fixed game...Don't think they had a witness protection plan in 1919. Game fixing was not rare in those days...tattling on game fixers was very rare and I'm sure there was a reason for that.
