For seventeen of those years, he also was the chairman of the National Commission, the ruling body of Organized Baseball (1903-1920). A native of Cincinnati who was born to German immigrants on May 3, 1859, Herrmann gained the nickname "Garry" from the foreman of the printing shop where he first apprenticed. The shop printed the official newspaper of the courts of Hamilton County, The Law Bulletin, and Herrmann soon became involved in Cincinnati's political machine. Herrmann rose in the ranks of the Ohio Republican party quickly, and became one of political boss George B. Cox's most important men. Herrmann was on the Cincinnati Board of Education, as well as a court clerk, before being named to the city's Board of Administration. He later served as chairman of Cincinnati's Water Works Commission before leaving City Hall for the ballpark. Herrmann's affiliations went beyond bossism and baseball. He was involved in a plethora of groups, including the Benevolent and Protective Order of the Elks, the Shriners, the Masons, the International Typographical Union, the Republican Party, the American Bowling Congress, and the local Turner Society, to name a few. These connections led Herrmann to positions of national prominence in areas beyond the ball field, For instance as president of the American Bowling Congress for two terms in 1907 and 1908, as chairman of the national gathering of Turner Societies in 1909, and as Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks for the 1910 to 1911 session. The interest Herrmann garnered from his involvement in those organizations paled in comparison with the attention he received as President of the Cincinnati Reds and as Chairman of the National Commission. He became involved with the Reds in 1902 when he negotiated with John T. Brush to purchase the team. Herrmann, Cox, and Julius Fleischmann, of yeast and gin fame, equally split the purchase price. Herrmann's administrative abilities and outgoing personality led the new owners to install him as president of the club. He remained at that position for a quarter of a century. One of Garry's first efforts in baseball was brokering the peace agreement between the American and National Leagues in early 1903. He chaired the National League Peace Committee, and influenced the meetings with the American League representatives enough that they signed the Cincinnati Peace Agreement. Herrmann also was on the National League Board of Directors for many years, and he chaired many of the League's committees over the years. Herrmann oversaw remodeling projects at Palace of the Fans and the construction of Redland Field, the two Cincinnati ballparks where the Reds played between 1902 and 1927. He administered the ballpark concessions, which included the Coca-Cola Company, Fleischmann Company, Jung Brewing Company, and Philip Morris; and advertising, which included hotels, restaurants, railroads, lumber stores, and shoe companies. He also approved arrangements for renting the grounds for movies and other baseball games, including teams such as the Long Branch Cubans, Cuban X Giants, American Giants, American Bloomer Girls, and Texas Bloomer Girls. In addition, Herrmann arranged for the Reds to play exhibition games with many semi-professional and minor league teams. The Reds were a mediocre team for most of the time that Herrmann ran the club. Even with notables like Joe Kelley, Edward "Ned" Hanlon, Clark Griffith, Hank O'Day, Joe Tinker, and Charles "Buck" Herzog managing the team, the Reds usually finished in the lower half of the standings. The Reds climbed into the first division and remained there with greater regularity between 1917 and 1926, under managers Christy Mathewson, Pat Moran, and Jack Hendricks. Their greatest accomplishment during Herrmann's tenure was winning the 1919 World Series. Unfortunately, the "Black Sox" scandal tarnished the luster of that victory. Some of the more notable players that passed through the Reds organization during Herrmann's tenure included John "Rube" Benton, Hal Chase, Lew Fonseca, Henry "Heinie" Groh, Miller Huggins, John 3 "Hans" Lobert, Adolfo Luque, John "Larry" McLean, Eppa Rixey, Edd Roush, Ivy Wingo, and two of the first Cubans to play major league ball, Armando Marsans and Rafael Almeida. Herrmann's tenure as the chairman of the National Commission was initiated by the National Agreement that was signed on 11 September 1903 by the American League, National League, and National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues. This document provided for a ruling body of three men consisting of the presidents of the American and National Leagues, and a third member who would chair the Commission, elected annually by the clubs. The Commission gave decisions regarding player and teams disputes, and administered the finances and planning of the World Series. The chairman, who presided at the meetings, would cast the deciding vote and became the default chief justice of the threemember panel. The first man elected to chair the National Commission was also the only man to hold the position, August Herrmann. The baseball executives recognized his efforts in negotiating the peace agreement and rewarded him with the chairmanship, citing his broad views of justice and unquestioned honesty. Widely recognized as fair and equitable in his decisions, Herrmann still incurred the wrath of particular owners. Team presidents like Charles Murphy (Chicago Cubs, 1906-1913), Horace Fogel (Philadelphia Phillies, 1909-1912), and Barney Dreyfuss (Pittsburgh Pirates, 1900 -1932) were vocal in their displeasure with any decision of the Commission that they perceived as unjust. There were also heated exchanges between members of the Commission themselves as they were deciding cases. American League president Ban Johnson at times had an acrid pen, as did National League presidents Harry Pulliam, Thomas J. Lynch, John K. Tener, and John Heydler. While most of the decisions of the National Commission were perceived as just and fair, a few contributed to the downfall of the Commission in 1920, including the George Sisler and Scott Perry cases. The George Sisler case was complicated, but boiled down to a dispute between the Pittsburgh National League team and the St. Louis American League team. Each claimed contractual rights to Sisler, and it took three years for the Commission to mull the evidence and come to a decision. When the Commission sided with St. Louis in 1916, Dreyfuss exploded and worked continually to overthrow Herrmann as chairman. The Scott Perry case was a feud between the Boston National League club and the Philadelphia American League club as to which club owned the rights to Perry's services. The panel sided with Boston, but Philadelphia disregarded the ruling and secured an injunction from the civil courts to keep Perry. The AL club's failure to comply with the decision resulted in fractured relations with the National League, and furthered the movement to remove Herrmann. Other factors conspired to bring an end to the National Commission. These included the legal fight against the Federal League, which lasted from 1914 to 1922, and the "Black Sox" scandal of the 1919 World Series. The court case involving the Federal League was expensive and time consuming, and while the decision eventually supported Organized Baseball, it added to the growing displeasure with the current administration of baseball. The "Black Sox" scandal involved eight players of the Chicago White Sox who were reportedly involved in a deal to purposely lose games in the 1919 World Series in exchange for money. While the gambling scandal mainly came to light after Herrmann's resignation as chairman in early 1920, it accelerated the demise of the National Commission and paved the way for the Office of the Commissioner. With the end of the National Commission, Herrmann remained involved in the search for a baseball commissioner. Once Kenesaw Mountain Landis took office, Herrmann devoted his remaining years in baseball to the Reds. He officially resigned as president of the Reds after the 1927 season due to deteriorating health and increasing deafness. He died on 25 April 1931, one week shy of his seventysecond birthday, and one month after the deaths of Ernest S. Barnard and B. Bancroft Johnson, presidents of the American League. 4 Scope and Content: The papers of August "Garry" Herrmann is made up of two parts; Part I. Cincinnati Reds, and Part II. National Commission. Part I. contains all the material associated with Herrmann as President of the Cincinnati Reds, 1902-1927. Part II. consists of material related to Herrmann as Chairman of the National Commission, 1903-1920. The papers were arranged in this fashion due to the great difference in the functions of the two positions. In effect, the arrangement unveils the inner-workings of an early twentieth-century baseball team as well as the first ruling government of baseball, which allows the researcher to see more clearly the relationships between the two. This collection consists of correspondence, newspaper articles, contracts, maps, blueprints, and memorabilia. Nearly all of the correspondence in this collection was received by Herrmann as either President of the Cincinnati Reds or Chairman of the National Commission. When viewing correspondence grouped by teams and leagues, keep in mind that they were writing Herrmann and not each other. Arranging the material by team allows the information to be better connected. Most of the material is organized by name, position, organization/team/league, additional information, and date(s). Some of the folder numbers are followed with an "a" because the material was discovered after the final arrangement (for example, see Box 63, Folder 71a). Information contained within parentheses refers to subject matter in the particular correspondence. When "pl:" is located in parentheses, such as (pl: Cobb), this means that the writer of the correspondence is writing about a player with the last name of Cobb. This does not mean, however, that all the information is about that player, but that a portion of it is. The design of the finding aid is best researched if used in conjunction with a website search engine. However, when viewing this as a MS-Word file, a researcher can search the finding aid using the Find command located under Edit on the toolbar. Search the finding aid using last names, city of team, league names, and various subject terms such as "World Series," "World War I," "Sunday baseball," "Cuba," etc. Not all material associated with a particular player, manager, president, etc., is located in the same place. Material associated with a certain player may be located in multiple areas depending on what teams the player was representing at the time he was writing Herrmann or with what cases he was involved in either the National Commission or American and National Leagues. This arrangement decision was made because a straight alphabetical listing (by last name) could not show the relationships between playermanager-president-league-subject. When arranging material by league, team, player, etc., a researcher has the opportunity to find more on the subject by seeing like material in close proximity. For example, if a researcher wants information on Ty Cobb and the Detroit Tigers, search Cobb and it will bring you to the Detroit/AL section. Not only does one find correspondence from Cobb to Herrmann, but also material from Navin to Herrmann and players Dalton, Dauss, and Lowe each writing to Herrmann. Because Cobb was such a prominent player, he was probably mentioned in their correspondence to Herrmann. This information will only substantiate the information sought by a researcher.

The scouts and trainers are arranged alphabetically by last name followed by date(s). Players mentioned are listed when available. A common practice of scouts in this era was to not mention players' names when writing of their talent in order to generate interest. When a scout mentioned a player's name it was usually only the last name.

American League, 1902-1926 Scope note: This series contains correspondence and material from American League officials that Herrmann received as President of the Cincinnati Reds. President contains correspondence from American League presidents received by Herrmann. Most of this material is in the form of formal letters addressing player transactions, etc. Herrmann received more correspondence from the National League because of being a president in that league. This is why there is little Johnson material when compared to National League presidents. Most of the Johnson material is located in National Commission (NC) because of Johnson's involvement with the NC. Secretary/Treasurer consists of correspondence from the American League Secretary/Treasurer which involves matters such as trades, player movements, etc. This section is arranged alphabetically, then chronologically, and should be researched in conjunction with President's correspondence. Business/Cases consists of matters that were resolved in the American League. Umpires contains correspondence from an umpire from the American League, who was providing information on players to Herrmann. President, 1902-1926 Box 52 Folder 1 Folder 2 Folder 3 Johnson, B.

Officials Correspondence, 1903-1916 Scope note: This series contains correspondence from officials (presidents, managers, secretaries, etc.) and individuals associated with Organized Baseball during Herrmann's tenure as Chairman. Most of this material is of administrative nature and involves questions about National Agreement rules and regulations. Correspondence from presidents in the American and National leagues resembles social gossip and contains less bureaucratic writing than from minor league officials. In addition, there is material from retired players such as Cal McVey (asking for financial support) and from inventors like Newman Harry Hunt, who designed the "Bottle-Ball" souvenir. The material is arranged by name, followed by position, team/league, subject, and date(s). Any additional information is located in parenthesis. Most of the officials correspondence related to the Federal League is located in the Federal League cases series. Folder 19 Folder 20 Folder 21 Folder 22 A.B.

Cases Related to World War I, 1917-1918 Scope note: This series contains material related to the cases caused by World War I. The Work or Fight/Selective Service Case was the main case between Organized Baseball and the U.S. Government. When the U.S. declared war on the Central Powers, a draft was initiated that called for every male (within a certain age range) to fight. Many of the baseball players during this time were eligible for the draft. The National Commission chose to fight this claiming that a baseball player was a legitimate profession and should not have to fight. Also during this time, in an effort to finance the war in Europe, the U.S. Government chose to tax the revenue created by baseball.

Player and Officials Cases and Reinstatements, 1903-1919 Scope note: This series is made up of cases and reinstatements of players and officials, which the National Commission decided between 1903 and 1919. One of the primary roles of the National Commission was to settle disputes between players and team officials. Player cases occurred when a player, unhappy with his situation, would file a complaint against the team(s) to his league. When the league was unable to reach a decision with his claim it would be sent to the National Commission. The National Commission would investigate this claim, which would then become a case, and decide the outcome of the matter. Sometimes a case could involve many teams and many leagues. A reinstatement would occur when a player or official was suspended for a period of time then reinstated into organized baseball. The cases and reinstatements are arranged alphabetically by name followed by team(s), league(s), additional information, case number in parenthesis, and date(s).

This material has been separated from its original location and replaced with a separation sheet. The separation sheet will have a detailed description of the material removed and what oversize box it is located in. The oversize material in the box can be retrieved by matching the title of the item (found along the bottom edge of the folder) with the title on the separation sheet. The separation sheet is always located in the exact physical location of the original item. When viewing the microfilm version of the collection, the original oversize item will be imaged in its original location. Oversize material from both Part I. Cincinnati Reds and Part II. National Commission is located within these boxes.
