. = August 5.?Han Johnson,
j ? sldcnt of tin- American League,
? not believe, comedy is essential
t.i the success of ., t'.rst-division, pen?
nant-rhasing baseball club, and as a
result the side-line unties of "Gcr

are likely to be a thing of the past.

in. ss. tJ.rimtli has been fdd that in
? . iii .;. these two coachers must ?
conti m themselves to coaching 'and
dispense with their famous "Vodeyeel"

irom tho ganie itself. Is President
Johnson's contention.
Griffith is i:.it ui ally displeased with
this bap 'bat has been placed on his

pleasing to tlto fans in the cities over i
the entire rlrcult nnd that It is 11 b-.g
factor In attracting drawing crowds,
w herever the Climbers play.
t.. inson, howev, r. holds that people
who w-anl comedy nnd vaudeville may

Who go to see baseball get their
money's worth out of the gam -.

during the past week by the umpires
if supposed to have been the result of (

Imsclf. nnd Griffith Is wondering if;
ho in to have two expensive coachers :
or. hi- hands who are not to be allowed
to earn their money.
ItlvnlN Mirj Hare < "nininlnod.
There Is also a suspicion In the I
Climbers' camp that complaints nave
been made to President Johnson by the I
managers of team-, whose players havo
pnld more attention to the eome.lv on
the side lines than they have to the [
liner points of the baseball.
More than one mlsplay has been at- I
trlbuted to ii.-- comedy in the c?acftlng I

has attracted as much attention from
the stands as the kmii-s havo.
Schnefer's tight wire net, Altrock'ij
shadow boxing and ether capers kept
not only ihe> fans in an uproar, but also

Cbnfidenttiilly, Griffith believes tin
stylo of coaching adopted by Hchafei

MANAGER HART ANSWERS
R'chtnond. V.t . A ., ist I, 1912.
Sport ng Kdltor of The Timus-Dispatoh:
As Iii? nutndger of one > t the team*
which forfeited a gpinc ust Saturday
oil account of only eight men showing .
up. thus bringing; forth the criticism
of Secretary Hooper. I think *n Jus- |
t|co to these ntori that li ? explained
liy me. one of our players was at
Hone Island, otto at Fergussoris Wharf,
one at u West Virginia mountain re?
sort, one In Baltimore, oho out of the
game on account of a i rained ankle,
one at Natural Bridge, Va., arid one
absent on account of the illness of his
mother.
We have experienced tome trouble
on account of the num.'. ? r ol college
i>i;,y, is we have carried, as tu so young
men naturally desire t i spi hd at least
a part of vacation seasoi ?..??ting and
on pleasure trips. TMiey ? urn and go.
mostly go.
I am satisfied that then will always
be trouble of this kind i:i amateur!
leagues with those lenrfi out ..f the
pennant race towards th< laBt of the
season, for with nothing to lose by
heilig absent, players a < no! going to
d< hy th> liiseivea week ? i , trips dur?
ing the entire summer Season. Now.
so far as levying line- ? mci rm-d r
? lo not behove amateur players win
stand for this, and 1 am quite sure
few managers would agret to put
thcmscivoi In ii posit!. ii whero they
would be liable for forfeit ires espe?
cially since they have no means of
forcing players to atten I games;
1 think If every manager of the
teams whleh have dropped so low In
the percentage column us to eliminate |
bis team as pennant winners wen iah
lowed to sign up at- hiah new men 1
n> hi needed, that h,- coubi then cer?
tainly have siome Kin I of n team for 1
each scheduled game, ohd if he failed 1
he could he lastly critic I. however. I
as tlie rules n >w stand ho should not!
be blame!
The reference made t.. the American
and National l^.-agu.- ti ims forieltlng
games is farfetched bccauai these peb-:
pie receive salaries for playing the!
game, and it makes but slight differ-'
? nee with the players fexcopt *>n the I
leading teams) whether they st ind
Ipgh . r hoe In tue percentage column..
I make no excuses itr the men who
were absent Saturday, except the one
whose mother Is desperately 111, and :
th one who lias u sprained ankle, hn
w'll say that some e.f thes-.. men will
not wear Ashland uniforms next year,
and that I made a mist ike tn keeping
them tinder contract this long, though
they rank high as amateur ball play-I
l believe the Amateur Baseball com- !
mission of Richmond |fl destined to bb I
of Immcnso importance In building up j
the young man!. ?! of our city, and'
.should receive t! ? n-.oral and financial
support of all of us who like to help
