JOHNSON BLANKENsHIP's FIND.
kansas Youth shows Scout Something
New in Pitching.

Kansas 1OulAl SAlOANS O(Oub AoOAAA0~AA@
New in Pitching.
Cliff BIankenship, the manager of
Dick Cooley's Salt Lake baseball club
of the Union association, poses as the
Giscoverer of Walter Johnson, the
Idaho boy, who has become the IDOL or
the American league.
IT was Blankenship who discovered
johnson and secured his signature to a
contract with the Washington club, ac-
cording to the Lucas league boss. To
him, and nobody else, except, of course,
Johnson himself, belongs the credit OF
Johnson's big league career Milan,
the Washington outfielder, who is now
making such a record, was also signed
for the club by Blankenship.
Blankenship Joined the Washington
club in 1907 and the same year he broke
his finger, putting him out of active
baseball for some time. The club sent
him on a scouting tour. Washington,
as usual, was badly in need OF some
good ball players
Blankenship came across a neWspa-
per that had in 1t an account Of the
wonderful record being made by john
son. who was then living and playing
in Weiser, IJaho. and he decided the
boy was worth looking over.
To eiser he went, and for a week
he played catch with Walter Johnson
Speaking of the experience Blankenship
says:
what found when I got to Weiser
was a boy, a big husky boy, but never
theless a boy and a green one, too. He
knew nothing of the fine points about
baseball, but he could put more smoke
on thai old baseball than ever dream
ed possible
'I had caught many big league pitch
ers, but never one with a ball as heavy
as the one heaved by Johnson, and with
all his speed he had control He seemed
able to cut any corner of the plate at
will, and more than that, saw he had
a head for baseball. I realized that I
! had found something worth taking east
with me.
But I had the very dickens of a
time getting his signature to a con-
tract. He did not know whether or not
lie would make good, and he did not
care about going up and then coming
back. His mother was not particular
about letting him go, either.
Finally, by offering him a bonus of
enough to give plenty of spending
money while in Washington and by
guaranteeing him his expenses back
home in case he did not make good. I
induced him to sign and took him back
