WASHINGTON CLUB is

Together With Philadelphia He
Is Now in Control.
Manager of Nationals Will Be In Alb
soIute Power and Is Expected to
Make Many Changes in the
Personnel of Team.

Clark Griffith has purchased the
controlling interest in the Washing
ton baseball club. The veteran man.
ager who has pilOted the Nationals
since 1912, associated with William
NJ. Richardson, a Philadelphia grain
merchant, obtained approximately
fOur-ffths of the 10000 shares Of
the corporation for 100000 Griffith,
in the reorganization, will become
president and remain as manager for
the time being at least.
The syndicate which made the pur-
chase is expected to make big changes
in the personnel of the team, and ev-
cry effort will be made to strengthen
the clubs nine next season. The new
purchasers, it is said, intend to cut
loose from the policy of economy that
has generally been followed and use
every means possible to produce a
winning combination. In short, it is
felt that the city Of Washington will
be put to the test in 1920
Griffith, who is now in the class of
John McGraw and Connie Mack as
manager owning considerable stock,
has been in baseball since 1887. He
broke in that year in Bloomington, Ill.
ID 1891 he got in the majors with the
