Johnson on Diet
Hurls Star Ball

WASHINGTON. oct 4.-WalteT
Smoke BALI Johnson, monarch Of
the mound, is pitching himself to
glory on a diet of pudding, sher-
bert, cake and iced tea. Perhaps
no other pitcher in the history Of
the game ever performed so val
lantly on 80 weak a diet, yet John
son never INDUCES in more food at
noon than pudding, sherbet, cake
and iced tea.
Il don't believe in eating much,
says Walter, before going out to
the ball park. Overlooking the
stomach is bad for a player. I like
pudding and cake. The sherbet or
ice cream is soothing to the stom-
ach, and so is the iced tea. Then
when l come back to the hotel !
eat my heartiest meal of the day.
Does so much iced stuff hurt
me? | think not l used TO have
a lot of ice cream sodas during the
day. Milan and l were known as
the ice cream soda boys a year or
so ago, you know; but we've cut
all that out. I Ike ice cream and
sherbet just as much as ever, but

Pittsburg club, read about the Fed

preached Clarke. One of the things

For example, Williams is now

Zeider, and would like to say a word
about this lad. His bunion. and you

trouble with Zeider has been that

And you ought to know that he can
steal bases. He has some record,
hasn't he?
This brings me to Maisel. who will
surely play third base. Even If this

steal more bases in 1914 than Milan.

cret. This psychology accounts for
fraternal organizations and Greek let
ter fraternities. Be that as it may,
the Browns already have shown a

Hickey, through his many collegiate

to decline of points under a renewal
OF the more or less general selling move

pessimistic view of financial conditions
