Farm System to Be Second to None in Loop,

must do likewise, or else. Our
farm system cannot be built in a

Griffith explained that Joe Engel
was withdrawn from the presi-
dency of the Chattanooga club not
merely to make a better Job for
CALVIN Griffith, adopted son of the
Washington executive, but to be-
come more useful to the Nationals
and their subsidiaries as directing
genius of the new farm system.

RoOmies Are Not Watchdogs.

CLARK G GRIFFITH never has
reached the point where he has
barred wives, probably because the
Old Fox realized they are the lesser
of several evils.
Griffith, in fact. gleefully consents
to his ball players taking a private
cottage or bungalow overlooking an
Orlando lake if they have their wives.
Too long has Griff been in base ball
to interpret the presence of wife as a
menace. Not in years has he found
player with Mrs Player on hand in
trouble because of long hours, overeat-
ing and maybe too much alcohol. But
athletes galore have violated training
rules while training alone.
Regular roommateS will put
up with a lot of things a wife
will not stand. The average ball
players "roomie" can watch
complacently while his pal tops
off a beef au jus dinner with a
pie a la mode and two bottles
of beer
He patiently will unlock the door
at 3 am. if his boy friend is not in
shape to find the keyhole with his
hotel key Martyr-like. he will raise
the window, turn over in his twin bed
and fall asleep again if annoyed by
a breath strongly suggesting brew
cry. And valiantly will he lie the
following morning if, perchance, Mr..
Manager tries to do a little pumping
as to the whereabouts Of his ''roomie"
the night before.
Friend wife will not do this. always.
They have a habit of speaking their
pieces and generally it is advice and
the sort ball player keeps because,
for the most part, the wife Is good
deal smarter in some things than the
player
She realizes, better than the
athlete, that his days as a mon
eyed man in the big leagues are
numbered, that the do-re-mi
must be piled up while the sun
is shining.
From what you hear of the Tigers
and Red Sox in training Messrs.
Cochrane and Cronin did not pull
anything particularly fast when they
evicted wives. Men will be boys. II
