part in his being selected the first
player for the roll of honor in Ameri-

were. other points.
Two years ago. Sisler refused the
managership of the Browns. explain-
ing that he. feared the responsibilities
incident to a managerial berth would
interfere with his playing and that he
believed he would be more beneficial
to the team by remaining in the ranks.
He suffered an injured shoulder last
week. when he expected to keep him
out of the Browns‘ lineup the re-
mainder of the season.
In his entire career. Sisler has been
suspended only once. His politeness
caused him acme embarrassment
when he joined the Browns. Some of
the players took occasion to call him
a "sissy." After he had demonstrated
his knowledge of tho Marquiagof’
Queensbury rules. his tormentors were
forced to admit that George was the
better scrappcr.
Sisler's three~year contract expires
next year.
Sisler was born in Manchester. 0..
March 24, 1893. He pitched for the
Akron team in 1911. attended the Uni-
versity of Michigan in 1912-13-14. and
came to the Browns in 1915. He mar-
ried and is proprietor of aprinting
