MANAGER IS NOT
PLAYER BECAUSE
HE DONS UNIFORM
WASHINGTON. July 4.—Clark G if
fith. manager of the Washington team,
does not agree with President Ban
Johnson on counting as a player a
manager who appears on the field in
uniform, even though he may not go to
bat. He does not believe in the jus
tice of the latest edlet of the boss of
the American league.
"A club is allowed 25 players." says
Griffith, "and that ought to include
players, not coaches. I am not a play
er just because 1 wear a uniform. I
wear a uniform in order to be closer
to the game than I could be if com
pelled to remain on the bench. I am
thus able to make complaints to um
pires and assist my team at critical
pinches with n.ty experience. But that
shouldn't make me one of the players
allowed the club. Hairy Wolverton
may rightly be considered a player. So
might Hatrv Davis and Jake Stahl
and Jimmy Callahan. They appear in
regular championship games and figure
in the box scores.
"But Hughey Jennings and I are no
more players than Connie Mack, even
though we do wear a uniform and
coach on the lines. I am not In sym
pathy with President Johnson in this
view of the matter, but hardly expect
to make, a test case, as I haven't the
limit of players* even counting my
self."

2 TITLE BOUTS
WARE NOT
CASING PANIC
By Left Hook.
TODAY will see two world's
championship pugilistic
events. One will be for
the heavyweight championship of
the world. The scene of strife will
be Las Vegas, N. M.. and the prin
cipals will be Jack Johnson and
Jim Flynn. The other affair will
take place at Vernon, outside of
Los Angeles It will be for the
lightweight championship and wilt
be between Ad Wolgast and Joe
Rivers.
Candidly, neither of these events
is attracting the attention that
usually attaches to world’s cham
pionship disputes, and one does not
have to look for the reason. In
neither Instance is the contest re
garded as a tilt between a pair of
evenly matched men.
The suspicion that Jack Johnson
may have slowed up during a
couple of years of inactivity and
■ high living is the one peg on which
the admirers of Jim Flynn hang
their hopes The thought that an
operation for appendicitis may have
robbed Wolgast of his snap and
speed is the one thing that makes
Rivers' chances of success appear
the least bit rosy.
Appendicitis Kill* All Dope.
It is easy enough to verify this
view of things. If Wolgast had not
been taken down with appendicitis
and forced to lay off several months
Rivers' chances In a match with
the champion would be considered
so small that the Idea of the men
signing would have been generally
ridiculed. Probably the old light
weights would have risen on their
hind legs and joined in the one
concerted round of protests, for Riv
ers was knocked out by Feather
weight Johnny Kilbane not so very
long ago. Moreover, this meeting
with Wolgast will signalize Rivers'
entry into the lightweight division
and to have a green lightweight
striving for the world's champion
ship the first time out does not \
seem by any means to be in ac
cordance with the eternal fitness of
things
But Wolgast was under the knife*
and the suspicion existed that
Wolgast as a champion had passed
away. . To put the thing to the
test It was necessary for some one
to be sent against Wolgast-—it
mattered little who—and Rivers
was the handiest.
The men who consider them
selves best fitted to a crack at
Wolgast—to wit. Packey McFar
land. Freddie Welsh and maybe
Knockout Brown—would have ob
jected strongly to this Wolgast-
Rivers affair if there had been no
appendicitis, but as matters stand,
all Ad's most formidable rivals are
viewing things complacently.
They regard the match as a tesl
case. If Wolgast shows he Is the
Wolgast of old he will be more
harried and challenged in the next
few months than he has been dur
ing all the years he has held the
title.
Fan Claims Jack Is 36.
A few weeks ago. In discussing
the Flynn-Johnson outlook, T took
occasion to refer to the fact that
there was not a great deal of dif
fer once in the men's ages, the rec
ord books showing that Johnson
was 34, while Flynn has passed hi?
thirty-second birthday. The pub
lication of the article brought me a
note of protest from one who is
certainly In a position to acquire
Inside Information on such mat
ters.
Said the note: “For your own
guidance. T want to tell you that
the record book does not state
tacts. Johnson Is fully 36 years
old. while Flynn Is only 30."
If this Is so. Flynn's chances are
somewhat better than I figured.
Rut whether Johnson be 34 or 36.
the question in a nutshell Is, How
much has Johnson aged during the
pa«t two years?
If the negro is still In the heyday
of h’s fighting force—if he is as
good as when he boxed Jeffries^—it
seems tb me It is not possible for
Flynn to have improved enough to
relieve the colored man of the.
championship. But if indulgence
and excesses have left their mark
on Johnson to an appreciable ex
tent he is likely to encounter a full
sized mountain of trouble
Flynn in Grand Shape.
Flynn, all reports to the con
trary, is trained tr> the proper
notch And Is brimming over with
pluck and confidence If he goes
down he will go down fighting, as
he did before.
As to calling the winner. I think
any one would be foolhardy to at
tempt it. Everything depends on
the changes that have taken place
in Johnson —if any have taken
place—during his lay-off
