DANNY GREEN DEAD
Former Member of White Sox Dies After Long Illness
For many years famous as a member of the White Sox, Danny Green died at the Camden County Hospital at Blackwood Sunday after being ill for a long period. Several years ago he was struck on the head by a pitched ball while a member of the Minneapolis team. He was badly injured and later paralysis developed, which affected his mind. For a long period he was confined in a sanatorium at Forest Hills, near Chicago, when two Camden friends, Wright Cox and Albert Keaser, learned of his plight. They brought him East to Camden and had him cared for at the hospital.
During his early career Green played ball in Camden and became such an adept that he went with the Springfield Mass. team, his first professional engagement. Later he joined the Chicago Nationals, remaining four years. After a year spent with the minors he was signed by the Chicago Americans, where he remained five years, or until he went to Minneapolis.
Green was a close acquaintance of "Jimmy" Callahan, manager of the White Sox; Charles Comiskey and Ed Walsh, the famous pitcher. Callahan is said to possess Green's insurance papers and an effort is being made to locate him to apprise him of Danny's death.
