Griffs announcement came In the wake of rumors that Walter Johnson would be relieved of the management of the club.

"He will take over the task of fixing the salaries of bis veteran players for next year. This Is quite an unusual distinction for a manager, 1 believe, but I want everyone to realize that Walter Is boss. "He is to rule with the Iron hand. He has full Jurisdiction and there will be no outside Interference. The pub-lic sooner or later will wake up and realize that be Is a real leader and not a figurehead. One who has never been manager finds it takes time to become accustomed to the position, but once he gets the bang of It I look for htm to do things In a big way.

Who was the beet "money" pitcher In the last quarter century t Was It Eddie Plank T Grover Cleveland Alex-ander, or Herb PennockT If you will permit Rosy Bill Byan, of the Milwaukee Brewers, to decide, It ts neither - of this trio; Rosy's choice Is the almost forgotten Shufniu' Phil Douglas, ten years ago John M'c-- 0 raw's Shufnin' Phil, you may remember, was the bootleggers' best friend while on the pitching staff of the Gi-ants, and his devotion to the cup that cheers prevented him from hanging op a record that would have put him In baseball's blue book right near the front "I have seen a lot of ball games and a lot of pitchers during my stay In the big leagues but when It came to a tough spot my choice would always be the Shuffler. And Douglas liked to get Into a tight battle In the eighth or ninth. "He bad nerve as cold as an Ice-berg. He might have been dozing In the sun somewhere and when tbey sent him In to relieve be would prob-ably ask what Inning It was and how many he had to get out The first two pitches would go whistling at the bat-ter's chin and then Phil would 'come down the middle' with three straight strikes. When he threw at you be wasn't fooling, either. "1 was with the Giants the last few years Douglas was In baseball and his Intemperance became so bad that he would 'hock almost anything be bad to get even the worst kind of drinking poison. His pay checks all went to bis wife and McGraw finally Issued an order that any player that loaned Phil even a dollar would be fined 200 bucks. But out In the center of that diamond, with the game at stake, Shuffltn' Phil was the greatest the game has known." Gonzales Is Best For baseball's most useful utility man. Manager Joe McCarthy casts his vote for the veteran Mike Gonzales, sturdy Cuban catcher. When Hartnett Injured bis wing on the training trip, McCarthy called upon Mike and he delivered. Last summer Mike was the spark plug In the Cubs' almost succes-fu- l drive for the pennant Insects Borne by Wind Travel Long Distances The race Is not always to the strong, at least not In the case of Insects. This bas been determined by the use of an bisect trap carried on an air plime operated by the Department of Agriculture. "So far, It seems that the stronger flyers, although Influ-enced by the air current to a certain extent In their directions of travel, are able to confine themselves to compar-atively low altitudes and have rather definite control over their directions of travel," says the report "The weaker flyers, however, are not so successful In offsetting air currents, and appar-ently many of them are carried abso-lutely as the wind takes them. Species which never before have been suspect, ed of being wind-born- e bave been caught at great elevations." As as this may be to the In-sect, It gives blm, as a race, a con-siderable advantage over bis stronger cousins In his fight against the per-sistent efforts of the government scien-tists and private farmers to extermi-nate blm.
