Sometimes between long shadows on
the grass
The little truant waves Of sunlight
pass
My eyes grow dim with tenderness,
the while,
Thinking see thee-Thinking / see
thee smile.
And sometimes in the twilight gloom
apart
The tall trees whisper, whisper heart
TO heart;
From my fond lips the eager answer
falls
Thinking hear thee-thinking hear
thee call

CLARK GRIFFITH PAYS
TRIBUTE TO MURNANE

Clark Griffith, manager of the Wash
ington baseball team, paid the following
tribute to Tim Murnane, veteran baseball
writer OF the Boston Globe, who died sud-
denly last night:
Baseball lost one of its great generals
in the passing of Tim Murnane. When
the Great Umpire marked the finish of
the game of life for the big-hearted, fair
and honest Murnane, everybody connect
ed with the national sport should feel a
personal loss.
Il knew him first as president of the
New England League. l knew him later
as writer that was a credit to his pro-
fession. Many the big Lacquer today owes
his start to the kindly word and the
telling boost that Tim Murnane put in
the way Of the major league managers.
I'm this death baseball suffers a loss
Contemporary and future writers of the
game have a goal to reach-it is that they
gain the regard. respect and confidence
that Tim Murnane possessed with all
connected with the great American pas
