town packets" Baseball Club, was
host at a dinner at the Hotel Alex
ander last week, at which the Pack
cts new manager, Paul Campbell,
was introduced to the clubs Board of
Directors and the sportswriters and
broadCasters.
During the evening Mr.. Raney out
lined Hagerstown's Working agree
ment with the Washington Senators
and emphasized the fact that Wash
ington was assigning young ball
players to the Hagerstown club -
young men with very definite pros
poets of going higher-and that Clark
Griffith, Calvin Griffith and Ossie
Bluege, all felt that the Hagerstown
Club would be very important cog
in the Washington clubs farm sys-
tenn.
He was followed by his business
manager, Rufus Edwards, who told
aDf the fine cooperation he was get
ting from Bluege and he, too, was
highly optimistic about the 1854
season.
The floor was then turned over to
Paul Campbell, who soon showed
that he had the stuff that managers
are made Of
He discussed his past experiences
as both a player and manager and
told his audience that he, too felt
sure that Hagerstown's working
agreement with Washington would
really produce results.
The meeting closed with a question
and answer period, with the mem
bers of the press asking Campbell a
number of questions regarding the
fundamentals of the game, that the
new manager answered in detail.
From where | sit, | feel sure that
under Campbel's management, Ha-
gerstown will have a hustling ball
club-and of one thing feel doubly
sure, and that is, if his boys don't
hustle all the time, they won't stay
on the team very long.
