Name/Title
Cheating Scandals
Secondary Title
"Harry F. Sinclair"
Description
This brief account of Harry Ford Sinclair (wealthy industrialist and founder of Sinclair Oil) being cheated at backgammon is perhaps emblematic of backgamkon's vulnerability to cheats and angle-shooters whenever menaingful money is at stake. A follow-up article in January 1932 adds further anecdotes of bad behavior.
