Washington Club, who engineered that
important Red Sox-Senator trade last
November 8. This was the deal in which
he snapped Porterf1eld, Vernon Schmitz

minors) for polishing rights to five dia-

and Neil Chrisley and Pitchers AL Curtis,
Truman Clevenger and Dick Brodowski.
This is the first time the survivors of that
trade have come face to face, the better
for home fans to compare them.
Despite the Senator's last-place finish in
1855. it was bold move on the part of
young Griffith when he parted with Vernon
and Porterfield. Not in years had a ball
player been looked upon more favorably by
Washington fans than Vernon, a quiet hero,
whose chief distinction was that of becom-
ing the only Senator in history to win the
American League batting title twice. Even
though he was 81 years old, Vernon's
departure came as a shock

1T WAS 20 years and some change ago
Il that Thomas A. Yawkey, millionaire
owner of the Boston Red Sox first tapped
the Washington Ball Club as source of
player talent. For an unprecedented cash
outlay of $250000, plus Shortstop Lyn Larry,
he acquired Joe Cronin, playing manager
OF the last Senator team to win a pennant
No transaction since matched this one in
magnitude, but Yawkey and his Red Sox
organization never lost the knack of COL
lecting Senators. For proof, it is necessary
only to regard the Red Sox today as they
engage in their first series of the season in
Griffith Stadium.
1t is old home weekend of a sort for
four ex-Washington players-PitcherS Bob
Porterfield and Johnny Schmitz, First Base
man Mickey Vernon and Outfielder Jackie

"A black face dummy and another figure made up a

hanged in downtown Montgomery today while Confeder-

We don't think this Stiffness had any effect upon the

could the authorities tolerate such things? This kind
publicity hurts America abroad but very little if any at
