been tugging at Samuel Gompers' coat
tails ever since Dave F'ultz ran over here

strike was to get major league baseball

Whether Jim still holds membership in
the players organization Is not known,
but his views on the subject are well

Griffith recently and made 1t plain that
he would not follow any orders to hold

plain to Griffith that he had no fault

added that somebody would have to show
