SAYS BAN JOHNSON IS WRONG
Manager Who Appears on Field In
Uniform Should Not Be Counted
as Player, Says Griffith.

Clark Griffith, manager of the Wash
ington team. does not agree with Pres
ident Ban Johnson in counting as
player a manager who appears on the
field in uniform, even though he may
not go to bat. He does not believe in
the justice Of the latest edict of the
boss of the American league. "a club
is allowed 25 players" says Griffith.
"and that ought to include players, not
coachers. l am not player just be-
cause | wear uniform. | wear uni
form in order to be closer to the game
than l could be if compelled to make
complaints to umpires and assist my
team at critical pinches with my ex-
perience. But that shouldn't make me
one of the players allowed the club.
Harry Wolverton may rightly be con-
sidered a player. So might Harry
Davis and Jake Stahl and Jimmy Cal
lahan. They appear in regular cham
pionship games and figure in the box
scores. But Hughie Jennings and | are
no more players than Connie Mack,
even though We do wear a uniform
and coach on the lines. l am not in
sympathy with President Johnson in
this view of the matter, but hardly ex-
pect to make a test case, as | haven't
the limit of players even counting my
self"
