Back when Ban Johnson organized the American League, one of thc planks of his platform was that rowdyism must cease. The same platform was adhered to by the late Ernest S. Barnard and by William Harridge, the incumbent league president. As a result, it has been many years since the Ameri- can has had any persistent trou- ble with managers and players. ' Johnsen did find it necessary to dis- cipline the late John McGraw when the latter was managing the Amer- ican League’s old Baltimore club. 'McGraw didn't take the disciplin- ing with good grace and he signed with the New York Giants. There have been a few lads in the American League who worried the umpires. Hobe Ferris, who play- ed second in the early days of the Red Sox, was one. According to |Ferris' book, he was never out, |while, by the same token, the op- posing player was always out.
