played with that team until secured by
Washington.
In 1918 he eclipsed the shutout record
held by Jack Coombs OF the PHILADELPHIA

seven games in 1913 johnson permitted
his opponents to cross the plate for an
average Of only 1.0s runs per game. at

taking place along a considerable portion
OF the battle line. The Germans have
anticipated the concerted forward move
ment Of the allies by making a spirited
attack themselves.
The allies have not been taken by sur
prise and are now in a position to bids
their time. The new German offensive
will probably not cause them TO change
their well-matured plans. This new at
tack so far has met with no success.
II has extended more or less along the
whole line. but has concentrated prin-
cipally To the north OF Ypres and on to
ward Dixmude. The fighting has been
most severe. but all attacks have been
successfully repulsed

In the dark hours before dawn yester
day morning a large force OF Germans
crossed the food water Of the User by
means OF broad RATS. The venture was a
desperate one. for not a man who set out
on It could have been ignorant Of the
fact that death was almost certainly
awaiting him.
The RATS were punted through the shall
low waters in dead silence. Each carried
about fifty or sixty men ard machine
guns. Awaiting the dawn another fleet
OF RATS drawn by motor boats was wait
ing on the German side of the muddy
waters. but before dawn came the plot
was discovered and when daybreak did
arrive the artillery OF the allies met the
advancing Germans with devastating ef-

Yet in spite OF their losses these Ger.

the crossing. They were partially covered
by a heavy cannonade OF their field ar

in their plan. Several rats were upset in
midstream by the fire Of the French guns
and great number Of Germans wert

The attack eventually ceased. after the

The Germans have withdrawn their
