CRAWFORD NOT RENcHED
 FOR SPITE.
Manager Jennings UnjustIy Charged. Writes Norman 5earsIey in Detroit Journal.

Jennings has been unjustIy charged with keeping Sam Crawford on the bench through spite. The absurdity of such charge is apparent when 1t Is considered that success means more to Hughie than it can possibly mean to any other person, writes Norman Beasley in the Detroit Jour nal. Jennings has been switching his team about-that's true-but he has made switches with the purpose of getting winning combination. Sure Iy that is a laudable desire.
 Jennings has been unable to use Crawford through most of the season because the veteran has been suffer- .lng from an assortment of ailments. First Sam was threatened with pneu- monia and when shaking off this dis covered that the cold had settled in the muscles of his back. It was an impossible thought to consider Sam in the lineup when beset by these troub. es.
 Tn the next place. Jennings honestly an outhelder. Jennings. in belieYeing this, shares an idea with a lot of base ball men. Sam is at the age when tendons tighten and he cannot cover ground as be once did. Slow runners take advantage of his throwing arm and Jennings, In playing Heilmann in right Held. was castig about for a capable substitute.
 Hughie does not believe Crawford s days are ended as a major leaguer, and he wants Sam to play first base but Crawford is unwilling because of a lack of practice.
