WASHINGTON CLUB
HAS SMALL CHANCE
T.y ir. C. Hamilton.
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
N13W YORK, Feb. 18. T'.ie
Washington Amoriean league ehil),
It seenis, just can't got started on n
road that leads to the top of the
heap.
Clarke Griffith, manager of the
club, had 1 everything all fixed, he
thought, for a start toward strength
when he negotiated a trudo that
brought him John Lavan from the
Drowns, but Lavan up, and joined
the army and the stuff was off.
The Washington club isn't guilty
of harboring a lot of star bail pU'.y
ers. The team can play ball play-
liliife-l
creditably, and Griffith Is one of j
the game's smartest managers, but i
there ara no Co'.ibs, Speakers, ct, al, 1
connected with the club. Walter '
Johnson is the sole blooming star,
' right nev.'. unless one wishes to con
sider Clyde Milan as still a member I
. of the elect club. !
The reserve list of the Washington
club shows most of Its promising
"material gobbled up in The'deuand
for men in the army and navy. Mike
Monosltoy, as promising a recruit
ns ever showed in the big leagues,
Is among those who entered service.
Joe Leonard, a hard-hitting and
clover fielding, third baseman, has
gone to the col:, and several
others not' so highly regarded have
joined.
The Senators' pitching staff has
been about all the club could boas',
(or several years, -end Orirfith prob
ably is busy thanking Tate that his
best men for hurling duty have not
jumped to the world league. V.'.ilter
Johnson, Harry Harper, Crain, Craft
nnd other stars still are held o.i the
Senators' list.
Strength with the Washington
club depends almost wholly on the
pitching staff. If -it ho'.di up the
Senators may finish higher than
last summer, but theia 'is small
hope.
