and Bill Kay formed the star battery of
the Battle Axe team, which lost but
two games Of sixteen played.
Succeeding the amateur baseball sea-
son, an intercity championship series
was arranged with the winners of SINH
lar championships in Washington and
Baltimore, in which the championship
was won by the Pepcos of Washington,
the games directing attention to the
splendid battery work of the Battle
Axes; Bill Peet of the Washington
Herald was the wide-eyed visual artist
who saw in Boehline possibilities suf.

ling to the staff headed by that strong
armed genius, Walter Johnson.
Developed on "Farm.'
During the training trip of 1912 Peet,
Ed Grillo and Joe Jackson proclaimed
the worth of Boehling and predicted
that he would prove tower of strength
for the Climbers. The brilliant attack
of the Senators during 1912 during
which they rolled up succession OF SIX,
teen successive victories-which record
was ruined in the seventeenth effort by
