after the baseball strike was settled In
Philadelphia yesterday;
Il have been criticised by some man
ayers like Connie Mack for not keeping
my men In line. l argued with them and
did all that I knew how. l would not go
through another experience like last Sat
urday's for all the money In the world
The players, believe. have won a moral
victory, and i know that they will jump
back into the game and play harder than
ever, to show the public and the other
managers. who have accused them of being
auitters. that they are able to play the
game harder than ever and that they have
not lost any Of their popularity on the
road because OF this action"
