- NEW VIM INJECTED INTO EASTERN END OF CIRCUIT Griffs Now Conceded Fighting Chance for Pennant —Shortstop Quiet, But Brainy—Willingness to Come Here Enhances Value. Peck Is Satisfied To Be Private In Ranks With Washington Club CLEVELAND, January 12—When informed yesterday that President Griffith had said he would not manage the Sénators in 1922, Roger Peckinpaugh declared that news dispatches Tuesday night have caused him embarrassment. Al his statements were based on those reports, he said. Even if not made manager, Peckinpaugh said, he is pleased over the deal which took him to Washington, and declared ke would do his best for that team. N will be voted thanks by the American League for capturing Roger Peckinpaugh, but the league could do worse than say “Good boy.” He has injected new vim into the eastern half of the circuit. The feast is better spiced for the coming season than it was before Griff made his play. _ Washington, in 1921, was more or less a contender in the American League fight. There were times when, in the early days of the race, the Senators seemed to have a chance. They were piaying close to that in- tangible thing known as base ball form. f the Washington team¥had possessed a well balance shortstop in 192] it is safe to say that the team would have been more than a dozen games better off. Had it been that much better, the New York crowd might not have won the pennant.
