OF b. B. Johnson. president Of the
american league and member OF tina
national commission. Aroused over
the action OF the scalpers, Johnson IL
reported TO have said that upon q
formal complaint he would start an
investigation. On the other hand,
Garry Hermann OF the reds and
President Lynch OF the National
league say there win be nothing OF
the kind and the owner OF the giants,
John Brush, takes the game attitude.
1t seems that Sncdgraas' spiking
episode has aroused every baseball en-
thusiast in the east For one thing.
Fred Snodgraes denies that he ever
entertained thoughts OF putting Baker
out OF the game by such tactics.

OF the country. Davis charges Hugh

with being the ringIeader, and brands
him a traitor to the American league.
Davis claims that Jennings, knowing
the weak spots OF the athletics. point

these was the fact that Baker, who

BY rough work on the bases. Davis

judgment Of the committee, will be
given q place on the second eleven.
A third team may be picked, but such
IL improbable.
The committee has been granted the
right to change the position OF any

tion. but is compelled to make him an

HARRY SEES The
WORLDS SERIES
POPULAR JAP HooKKEEPER AT

FUNNY PICTURE or The
WORLDS SERIES WITH BAKER
AT THE BAT.

Harry IrnaA, known to almost every
travelling man In, the northwest, has
produced wonderful picture OF the
worlds series baseball games. Harry
IL the Japanese bookkeeper at the wal
dorf hotel ana az . aide line takes
UP drawing. being student at a To-
cal art school
Harry has presented his wonderful
cartoon to the sporting editor OF The
Forum. The picture 10 wonderful in
several respects and shows the popu-
lar little laps idea of our national
game. Some things Harry does not
understand about baseball and there
are others that he does. He shows in
the picture the ones that he does
understand.
Baker IL at the bat In the funny pic
ture. The only trouble with the pie
ture OF Baker is that he is batting
right handed In the picture. but he is
left handed batter. Harry has the
umpire standing out behind the pitch
er. He has heard OF umpires who
wore breast protectors and masks,
and so he has placed one on the man
who calls the balls and strikes from
back OF the pitchers box. Harry has
the right idea all right. even IL 1t is
weak in technicalities, and the pic
sure is much appreciated
The New York frst baseman has
an extension arm to use for Bakers
hits coming his way. The second
baseman has been put up on q nice
pair OF stills where Imai hopes he
will be able to stop the high ones-in
the picture. The third baseman Is on
q step ladder while the left fielder
takes the cake. The artist shows the
grand stand with It's bowling humid
reds and at one end Is seen q ladder
leading to the roof and near the lad
der on the grand stand IL the left
fielder waiting for Bakers ny that
may go over the grand stand.
To appreciate the cartoon one should
see II. 1t II clever in its makeup and
no words can describe Imai's funny
conception OF the game. In connec-
ton with the picture he shows q con-
vereation about the game between
two men and the accompanying draw
ings are very clever.
The little Jap assistant clerk at the
waldorf takes a keen interest in
sports OF all kinds He is probably
attending the footbaH game today. as
80 far he has not missed ono this sea-
son.
His room at the Waldorf Is hung
with many pictures. all Of which are
his own work. Some OF his charcoal
drawings have been pronounced ex-
ceptionaily fine and he has received
the highest prafsa for hfa work The

THE FLORIDA HERCULES

Oscar w. Stuckey. the young man
who has been discovered in Florida
as possible challenger of Jack John,
son, the chocolate champion, seems
TO be in earnest in his ambition.
He has opened a training camp at
Jacksonville and secured competent
trainer. He hopes to get in condition
to battle for the championship of the
world.
While Florida doesn't especially
covet this sort of honor, no strenuous
objection will be raised to young
Stuckey pursuing his ambition and
trying for the chief pugilistic prize the
world affords. He is thoroughly a
Florida product and in his 236 pounds
there is said not to be weak ounce.
All he needs, his hackers say, is train
ing, and this he is starting out to get.
Florida has produced world-beaters in
other lines-why not in the prize
ring Tampa Tribune.
