day party for Griff yesterday
right under his very nose just
before he and his reconditioned
manager, Bucky Harris, de-
parted for the Louisville (Ky0
minor league meeting, which
starts today.
Has Lots of Friends
And that is why 1 say that
among Griff's other assets, over
and above the neckties and cuff
links and suSpenders and humi-
dorS, he has friends.
Why, I never saw so many
friends as gathered to wish Griff
many happy returns.
If they would all come out to
his ball park every one of the
II playing days of the regular
baseball seaSon-and pay their
way in-Griff wouldn't have a
wrinkle or care in the world.
They all gathered around the
Old Fox yesterday-they did
like a great, big family home
coming get-together. Nephews
and cousins and brothers
and aunts and uncles and in
laws we're there, as they prop
erly should be, with the inno-
cent bystanders and photogra-
pliers and writer's and hangers
on and club physicians, conces-
sionnaires, bat-boys and general
handymen, all to take the
strong, right-handed grip of the
intern who was present at the
birth of the American League
and who, himself, used to grab
that old ball in his brawny paw
and heave it past Dan Brouthers,
Pop Anson and lot of other
guys who are now but mere
memories in the reverberating
and dank old archives of the ma
tional pastime.
No Mercenary Motives
I enjoyed that hour at Griff's
party, because everybody
seemed so sincere and loving
and adoring and appeared to
be quite on the level about it
and had no thought whatsoever
back in their heads that Griff
recently grabbed a quarter of
q million dollarS-caSh on the
line-for his nephew-in-law,
which ought to make all hands
feel pretty secure for a while
at least.
And the Old Fox's eyes were
agleam. He was tickled as a
12-year-old boy at his own birth
day party.
He didn't exactly turn any
handSprings-that is up to the
time had to leave with three
fat cigars stuffed in my vest
and durn good good lunch
underneath it-but he was
happy enough to turn somer-
Sault almost any minute with
or without provocation.
Yea, Griff has everything.
Friends.
Money.
