hay did make one notable contribution in his short tenure as temporary secretary. vernon maginnis, who operated one of akron's professional teams in 1919, wanted to field a team under the name of the massillon tigers in 1920. hay was thoroughly unimpressed with maginnis, as the team he had led in 1919 was not a success and hay did not believe that a traveling team was deserving of the well-respected massillon tigers name. hay actively sought another investor for the tigers, but because the tigers of the 1910s had been operating at such major financial losses (hay's primary reason for seeking a credible tigers team was that tigers games were major financial successes—for their opponents) and most of its players had defected to start the cleveland tigers, potential owners such as f.j. griffiths and cupid black either balked at or ignored overtures to run the tigers in 1920. with no credible owner stepping forward, hay claimed the massillon tigers as his own, immediately announced it would not play in 1920, and prohibited all teams in the league from playing "any other massillon tigers team" such as maginnis's. the tigers, while technically listed as a charter member of the league, never played in it, and became the first team to effectively be rejected as a member.
