the least interesting and complex Of
the creators children is the sports
customer. His capacity for indigna-
ton is surpassed oply by his facility
for forgetting that he ever had a
g1ies ance in the world. He can be
purple faced with wrath in Janu-
cry and the epitome of good humor
and enthusiasm in May.
RH
II was just about a year ago
that the peaSantry Of Cleveland,
for example, was agitated to the
boiling point over the refusal of
the local ball club to reinstete
iris Speaker as centerfielder and
manager following the def white
washing he, along with Cobb, re-
ceived at the hands Of the majeS-
tic Mr.. Lands.
A S I recall the circumstances,
IA protest leagues were formed
and awful boycottS were threatened
and the situation assumed such
grave aspects that there was talk
of burning down the ball park and
hanging the club owner-a member
Of the gentle sex, by the way-in
scandalous eff1gy in public square.
And at about the same time SINH
lar goings on were being enacted
in st. Louis because the aforemen-
toned Hornsby, who had a few
short months before piloted the
Cardinals into a world champion
ship, had been summarily shorn of
his powers and turned over to the
Giants.
I'm through with it ALL" shouted
Mr.. Gus H. Fan, who appears to
be made of the same clay wherever
you find him. you'll never see me
at another ball game. The whole
thing is a gigantic fraud and Wall
st. controls it,"
Nor was this precisely novel
attitude on the part of the old
fellow. Back in 1919 when it was
revealed to a shocked world that
certain members of the Chicago
White SOx were low characters
who valued sOrdid wealth above
a group photograph emblematic
Of the world championship he said
much the same thing in much the
same way.
e e II
DUT in this instance, as in the
- preceding ones, when the open
ing day of the season came galloping
around, Mr.. Gus H. Fan was in his
accustomed place in the line buying
enc of those dollar tens which enti-
tied him to profane the umpire, as
sist the manager in the more in
volved strategical maneuvers, stretch
in the seventh inning and get home
too late for hot dinner.
I have a frightened idea that the
present outburst of fury inspired by
the removal of Hornsby, and the in
creasing suspicion that Charles A.
Stoneham has replaced John Joseph
McGraw as the actual manager of
the Giants will experience a similar
climax.
1t is remarkable how these mount
ing RACES melt under the spell of the
resonant two-base hit and warm
spring skies. While Stoneham is
now looked upon by many of the
customers as a fiend in human cast
1923 avoirdupois) all will be for
given and more if those Giants hap
pen through some miraculous chance
to be up there again next summer.
Il n
1t is a game that can take ire
mendous punishment and in this
respect 1t does not differ greatly
from its supporters.
