CLAIM new YORK OWNERS,
NOT RUTH, DESERVE CENSuRE
BY ROY GROVE

BUFFALO, N. Y.-Open uendice
of baseball law is going to prove
mighty costly to the New YORK
American League club.
Owners Rupert and Huston were
the original culprits. Babe Ruth
played the leading role in the Gil
max.
Several a ago Carl Mays. then
pitching for the Boston Red Sox,
quit his team in disgust. His exit
came near the close of a game In
Chicago in which things were break
ing badly.
MAYS. in a statement, said he was
tired playing with a losing team. lie
even further and said that he
would never play again until TRADED
with a club that was up in the race.
President Johnson of the Ameri-
can League indefinitely suspended
Mays for his actions. He rendered
a decision, saying that Mays must
PLAY with the Boston club IL he
cared to continue in the American
League.
The Groh Decision ~
Last year Judge Lands vas COM
PEELED to render a decision in 'the
Groh case which was very similar.
Groh said he would not play with
the Cincinnati club, that he must be
traded. :
Manager McGraw of the New
York club vas ready to take Gron
Immediately. Judge Lands ruled
that Groh must finish the season
with Cincinnati. The other day Groh
was traded to New York, proving
that McGraw was ready to. assume
his contract last year.
Judge Lands was applauded for
his decision in the Groh case. The
Groh case was not nearly so fragrant
an offense as that of Mays.
Did the New York owners applaud
Johnson, when he ruled that Mays
must continue with the Red Sox,
after a deal had been made bringing
Mays TO New York? They did not.
Take Mays Case to Court
Instead they took the case to
court. 1t was a long drawn out af-
fair, which cost the American
League about $780, 900. 1t was ruled
that President Johnson had exceed
ed his authority. A lot of injunctlons
were secured, and Mays through
court order was able to play.
This controversy over Mays
caused a split in the American
League. On one side was the New
York club supported by Cimiskey OF
Chicago and Frazee of Boston. The
other five clubs lined up with john
son.
The split caused the three Ameri-
can League to line up with
the National League in a demand
that baseball get new firm of gov
eminent. The other five loyal CLUBS
were forced to give in. Preslden,
Johnson was characterized as a
Gear"
Must Take Their Medicine
Judge Lands as the supreme car
of baseball was the new form OF
government that came out of II
Carl Mays case. The owners of h
New York club created III condition
by defying baseball law as laid down
BIZ President Johnson.
Then Babe Ruth enters on the
scene and plays exhibition games
after being told by Judge Lands
that he had no such rights.
The Judge, who secured his JOB as
the result of the Mays case, slips the
men who created him a decision that
in baseball ranks with the standard
OIL fine of $29.0 00,0 O0.
A protest from Rupert ana Hus-
ton, the Yankee owners, VIII come
with very poor grace.
Rupert and Huston ar as much
to blame as Ruth for the present
that exists on the New
York club.
