GRIFFS GET NOTHING
BY WAIVER CLAIMS

Getting some player you fancy via
the waiver route is not being done
these days, according to Clark Crit
fifth. president of the Nationals.
When the Browns announced they
were willing to let some other club
in the American League have Sad Sam
Jones and Elan Van Glider, pitchers,
and Herschel Bennett, outflelder. the
Washington preXy lost no time in
claiming the trio. He was particularly
anxious to acquire Jones, as Manager
Harris thought the veteran would be
just the man to steady the Nationals
pitching staff. But none of these men
will come to the Washington fold.
After waiting vainly all day yester.
day for word from the league Office at
Chicago as to what disposition had
been made of the Washington claim,
President Griffith was informed this
morning that the Browns had with
drawn the waiver requests.
Getting away with the .double-play
just could not be done by the Ma
tionals yesterday. They tried it four
times, too. One of the efforts resulted
in an error being charged against Har-
ris, when he chucked the ball to the
Washington dugout while attempting
to flag Hale. after Simmons had been
forced out in the sixth.
Walter johnson was presented with
a basket of flowers before the game
got under way The posies were given
by a party of Maryland Y. NJ. c. A.
youngsters visiting the Capital.
Although Joe Judges finger that
was lanced in Philadelphia last week
to relieve him OF an infection still
panied him considerably, he put up
nifty game around the first sack.
Joe never fiinched in taking the five
throws that came his way nor was
he troubled one whit at bat by the
sore digit.
Grove flashed some sterling pitch
ing in the second inning when he
struck out the side. Bluege and
Reeves let the last strike go past
them, while Thurston made vigorous
retiring wave.
Third Baseman Hale never had a
chance to come up with Thurston'S
drive in the fourth. The ball scooted
by Sammy at a mile-a-Ininute clip to
left field for a single, scoring Ruel.
Harris, the only National who tried
to steal on Cochrane, made second
easily in the seventh when the Mack
catcher's throw was wide of the bag.
French, who took a chance against
Ruel's wing in the first frame, was
caught by good peg.
Reeves kept a hit from Hale in the
fourth by backing up Bluege well.
Sammy almost knocked Ossie down
with a hot smash, but the shortstop
blocked the carom off the third base
mans hands and heaved to Harris
for a forceout OF Simmons.
Cochrane played Bluege's bunt par.
ticularly well in the eighth. He was
on the ball quickly and hustled it to
Galloway so fast that Ruel, trying to
move from second to third, was
trapped and easily retired.

The Ivory Tower

THE struggle of the disinherited of
the earth against their oppressors
has been going on for a long time;
and history makes clear that it is no
joke to be on the side of the oppres-
sed. The masters will cruelty you, as
they did Jesus, or stab you to death
as they did the Gracchi and Wat Ty-
Ter. If you are great writer they
will exile you with Dante and Hugo,
or throw you into prison with Tasso
and Dostoyevski and Ernst Toller and
Ralph Chaplin. Since it is difficult
to be sure which side is going to win,
there is a tendency on the part of
writers to say, "a plague on both
your houses" and withdraw into an
ivory tower of art.
And since. whatever men do, they
have to make it seem noble and sub
lime, there arises a cult of naughty
superiority to political problems; the
artist becomes a semi-divine being,
engaged in an activity of permanent
significance, and the polishing of one
of his phrases becomes more import
ant than the fate of an empire. Such
an artist will be an exponent of tech
nique, painter of the outsides of
things; and necessarily, he will work
to please the rich. Ivory towers cost
money, and the artist must find pa
irons enough to pay the upkeep, and
the wages of the cook and the gard
ener and the chambermaid and the
chauffeur and the doctor and the dem
fist and the bootlegger.
