In losing President Ban Johnson
and Pitcher Walter Johnson the
American league loses two char
acters that will live long in the
memory of baseball fans. Years
hence baseball history will sparkle
with narratives of the men, who for
years, had been an integral part of
the American league. i
1t, is a coincidence that the two
Johnsons should leave about the
same time. Although alike in many
respects, their personalities were
entirely different. Both gave all
they had to the game. Ban organ
lied the league, drove out the gam
blers and made it the strongest
organization in baseball, and a
game to be enjoyed not only by
men but by women and children
as we'll. Always a man of strong
impulses and fiery temper, he made
many enemies. In many cases he
was right, but right or wrong he
was always fighting for what he
thought were the best interests of
baseball.
On the hand Walter Johnson,
quiet and unassuming, was never
known to have had serious argu-
ment with a fellow player and
never during his 20 years with the
Washington Senators was he e.
jected from a game for unsports-
manlike actions. AS for actual abil-
ity, he was about the best the game
ever produced. He leaves behind
a long trail Of noteworthy perfor-
mances.
Volumes could be written about
these two men, but confined to this
brevity the least that can be said
is that they were brave and fear
less leader and a conscientious and
hard player. Baseball in general
and Washington in particular will
miss them.
