Johnsou's Hope.

Walter Johnson has an earnest and
highly proper desire to establish,
among others, another pitching record
In the history of baseball no slabIhan
has ever worked over forty games and
allowed an average of less than a run
per battle TO the entire string.
Last season Johnson permitted lS
runs each start in something like forty
seven games This season he expects
10 chop off the 90, and possibly another
point. II he does, it will be record
that was never approached. He has a
fair start with one tally recorded in
two games.
The Washington times., 1914-04-23

Apparently, Branch Hickey is no
respector of tradition. The Gus
toms, laws and regulations of his
country means less than nothing to
him. The season is now over a
week old and the Browns are no
where near last place.
For that matter, the soft spots
in the American League have about
vanished. The Yanks, like the
Browns, are nothing like the same
people who a year ago trailed the
procession after the manner of a
fat poodle pursuing a meat wagon.

WHY 1t Was Thus.

President Wilson has a ready expla-
nation for his act In dispatching GER
tain war ships to Mexico and leaving
the German navy anchored in Pitts
burgh.
He only desired the subjugation of
the Huerta regime, not its complete
humiliation. Once the Flying Dutch

IF President Wilson has Huerta cap

Our tip would be to give him base

him to block Ty Cobb. The debris
