We Look At Names.

TIP at the top of the latter
was list of imposing
~ names, not all unknown to
US.
Rudolph Jose, chairman, was the
first. Yes, we know Rudolph.
Newbold Noyes, vice president,
was the second. Yes, he's con-
nected with the "Old Lady" at
Eleventh and the Avenue.
Thomas P. Hickman, treasurer.
No, don't know him.
Then came the committee and
in it is Avery G. Marks. Huh;
he's my boss. He's the guy who
hired Long John Silver, a story
you all should know. May tell it
some day, too, right in this
column.
Earl Goodwin is on the COM
mittee. He used to pound a mill
for The Washington Times until
he got a good thing with the tele-
phone company, when he left US
flat on our backs, where we didn't
stay long, by the way, even if
Earl did take his sunny face away
from the office.

Bill GUIDE There.

A ND there's Bill Guide. He
n was exalted ruler and mitt-
A. ed us the night we became
lowly member Of No. Is. Yes,
we know Bill, and only good Of
him.
Isaac Cans is there. He's the
man who gives away overcoats
and shoes to poor little shavers
every Christmas. No wonder
his name is connected with the
Salvation Army. He's got the
same sort of heart.
H. Clifford Bangs, William S.
Hoge, jr., Robert L. McKeever,
l. l.. Goldheim, Myer Cohen,
William J. Flather, jr., Victor B.
Deyber and Joshua Evans are I'M
known to us, but that doesn't
matter. They're trying to do
something worth while.
Yes, we've heard of Cuno H.
Rudolph. He used to be con-
nected with the Washington
government, didn't he? Not be
longing in Washington and hav-
ing voted more than once, we've
never really got to know any of
those gents across the street
from the Munsey building, ex-
cept j. Thilman Hendrix, and
we ran into him at the Mcbride
dinner out at Wardman Park.
Mebbe Cuno H. Rudolph is still
guarding the Dist~ct." Any
way, he's a prominent parsonage
in the Capital.
The Washington times., 1923-05-07


Saturday morning, signed by
Rudolph Jose, who is the chairman
of the finance committee seeking
to land the $4,000 rats for the
Salvation Army.
"We are sure" writes Rudolph,
"that it is not necessary to ask you
to give a little editorial cooper
alton to the Salvation Army in
it's eforts to raise funds with
which to carry on its humanitar-
ian work during the next twelve
months. We believe it is only
necessary to tell you that the
annual campaign for funds is now
on and that you will do the rest. !"
Right you are, Rudolph, and
here goes.
The Washington times., 1923-05-07


While not exactly outclassed. the
Griffs are handicapped in their first
series in the West by a lack of hit
ting. AS q team, the Griffs have
a mark of PAT The Tigers, whom
they face tomorrow, are hitting for
.307 as a team, a difference of more
than SO points, according to the
latest figures.
Next Saturday Bush leads his
team against the Indians, who have
lead Of thirty points as batsmen.
Thus, the first eight games in the
West will see the Griffs playing
teams with greater offensive abil-
ity, therefore calling for greater de.
fensive work in the field and in
the box, If the Washingtonians are
to get an even break.
1t won't be until the GFiffs
land i'm Chicago on May 16 that
they viii have superior artillery
to that carried by the enemy.
Even then the margin will be
small, practically nothing. To
make short work Of al this dope,
/ for this first swing around the
West the GEiffmen do not look as
strong as the teams they are to
meet.
DOME Bush, a scrappy little guy,
doesn't admit he is ever beaten
till he is. That's good, but John.
ny Kilbane might say the same
thing as he enters the ring with
Jack Dempsey. It wouldn't avail
him much against one Of those gosh
awful wallops the heavyweight
champion uses.
We have been watching the
Griffs ever since March /. We are
them. We like to say pleasant
things about them, and do at every
opportunity, but we can't see much
for them in the West on this trip.
Now heres ust what we. think be-
forehand will happen to them, hor-
ing we're wrong. but willing to be
shown:
One victory in Detroit, possibly
two: two victories in Cleveland; two
victories in Chicago, possibly three;
two victories in st. Louis, possibly
but one.
This done gives The Griffs seven
wins in fifteen games, which is al
most an even break. If they break
even OOlTOiL, lnGy IL Dc dD1e TO
balance the st. Louis jinx, provid.
ing it gives the Browns two wins.
Much depends upon this series
opening in Detroit tomorrow. A
good start should go far toward
perking up the Griffs and sending
them out with q winning spirit.
On the other hand, If the Tigers
chew them up into hamburger.
they may be fortunate to be on
the winning end of five games in
the fifteen on the schedule.
That's our own dope and Wen
stick to 1t. The Griffs may win
seven, if lucky They may win
only five. If they fall apart, they
will be fortunate to take three. If
they begin hitting the ball, they
may win nine.
Sam Rice is hitting well. So are
Muddy Ruel and Bucky Harris.
This is not enough.
Judge must begin soon, and so
must Goose Goslin and Roger Peck
inpaugh, If the team is to be really
formidable. All three are below the
.275 mark.
Patsy Charity and ossie Bluege
The Washington times., 1923-05-07

are not hitting for even 200. They
can be little better than a drag on
the team with that sort of work at
bat.
Against the Griffs Try Cobb win
/ probably use George Dauss. who
has q new overland delivery this
season; Herman PiIIette and
Sylvester johnson, the Coast
league stars, and either Ray
Francis or King Cole, sOuthpaws.
Dauss is always effective with
his wide curve ball. Pillette's low
ball should worry the Griffs a lot.
Not much is known of Johnson.
save that he has been pitching good
ball this spring. Backed by the
Tigers furious hitting, Francis may
be a winner. Little respect is held
for Cole, though he is a fair to
middling finger.
Aside from Allen Russell, II Is
not possible to dope the pitchers
Bush viii send to the mound. Old
Rubber Arm is practically assured
of opportunities to show his worth
to the team.
With Walter Johnson rifIing
them plateward, the Griffs won the
odd game in their series with the
Boston Red Sox, 4 to 1. johnson,
while not at his best, was just good
enough in the pinches to turn
Chances aggregation back when
runs threatened.
Three successive singles in the
sixth frame was all that kept Wal
ter from registering the ninety
ninth shutout of his career. The
Sox combed Johnson for a total of
nine safeties, while BuSh's clan was
registering eight off Murray and
Ferguson. One big inning, the sec
ond. put the game on ice for the
GTiffmen.
GosIin drilled a double up against
the score board, and moved to Nc
Millan's corner when Wade out
legged an intended sacrifice. Ruel
looked four wide ones over disdain-
fully, and the bags were populated.
Peck backed J. Harris almost to
the left field wall to gather in his
long fly, and Goose rambled over
with Run No. I. When Bluege
forced Ruel at second Wade stopped
at third.
Johnson strobe to the plate and
taking one helfty swing the nd
apple caromed off the score board.
Before Reichle could retrieve 1T
Wade and Bluege had counted and
Johnson was perched on the hot
corner. Sam Rice followed with a
single, which scored Walter, max
ing it four for the inning
That one inning was enough. Fer
Suson succeeded Murray and held
the Griffith safe thereafter.
Three lightning double plays
stopped Red Sox rallies.

Bush played twenty games for
the Tigers in the closing weeks of
that 1908 campaign and sat on the
bench, watching the veteran Charlie
O'Leary perform in the world series
against the Chicago Cubs. The
following year, after wonderful
season with the Tigers, he played
in the world series against the
Pittsburgh Pirates.
The Washington times., 1923-05-07

Beginning in 1909, DOME Bush
was a high-cIass, aggressive short
stop with the Tigers for twelve
years. He was their expert lead
off man and holds the American
League record Of playing in more
games than any other shortstOp.
The Washington times., 1923-05-07

Bush played in 81 games in 1909,
repeating this trick in 1914. It is
probably major league record for
a shortstop to engage in 1877 games
in two different seasons. Everett
Scott has reached this mark but
once. in 1917.
Never a great hitter, though his
all-time average of $50 is respecta.
BILE, Bush was a wonderful scorer.
A good lead-off man, he was follow
ed by such hitters as Ty Cobb and
Sam Crawford, who made it pos.
stble for him to make most of his
1874 runs. In four different sea-
sons he scored more than 100 runs.
Inc washington manager holds a
fielding record yet, that Of accept
ing 969 chances in 1914, 425 being
putouts. This is the greatest num-
Der OF putouts ever made by a
shortstop in single season under
the big tent.
Twice in his lengthy career Bush
accepted more than 900 chances,
reaching the 928 mark in 1911 and
969 in 1914.
In five straight seasons, from
1911 and including 1915, Bush had
300 or more assists each year.
