That, in the curbstone argot of
the prize fight boys, was the atti-

quite in the manner of the gentle

ments such as a Clevelander
did when he undertook to
chase Walter johnson off the
Indians bench, and seek the
managerial reins for him
self, then I must take cog
nizance Of the activities Of
a colleague.
I have before me the copies Of
all of this weeks editions Of
the Cleveland newspaper which
permitted its baseball man to
run amuck anent Walter John
son, last summer and this, and
examining the copies of the
current week, I fail to find a
single mention of the Walter
johnson testimonial game which
attracted five or six thousand
people to Griffith Stadium last
Monday.
Very Bad Faith
I do not propose to go into the
item Of newspaper ethics this be.
trayal of faith to the readers Of
that paper involves, because a
discussion Of newspaper ethics
probably doesn't belong in this
space or on this page.
But I cite the deplorable piece
Of baseball reporting as an ex"
ample of the type of writing
that has practically driven john"
son out of Cleveland. No sane
person believes Walter johnson
would work in Cleveland another
season under any circumstances.
I emphasize the incident to re-
mind whoever may read these
lines how unfairly Walter john
son has been treated and how
numerically he has been cruel
fled out there in the Forest City
by q press that FAILS TO RE"
PORT A DISTINCT HONOR
AND TRIBUTE PAID THE
CLEVELAND MANAGER IN
THE CAPITAL OF THE
NATION.
The Old Grapevine
How would you like to hear
from some traveller out Of New
York or Boston that Bucky
Harris received the acclaim Of
the city and silver plate, a fact
that your local newspaper would
not give you?
Put yourself in Walter John"
sons shoes and imagine the
criticism to which he must
have been subjected by people
who will not report to the read
ers that johnson was given o
signal public recognition in
washington, regardless Of how
the fans have been led to feel
toward him in Cleveland!
I am q little bit ashamed Of
that Cleveland trick, and if I
have not already talked too
much shop, I hang my head
that there can be that type Of
newspaper man.
