MUST PLAY TO WIN TENANT
Many People Outside of Washington Would Like to See Championship
 Team in That City.

A good many people outside of Washington would be glad to see the baseball team from that city win a pennant. Washington is one of the oldest baseball towns in the United States. It has had a team for time immemorial and 1t has never yet shown in front. It would seem that the time spent in the national pastime and the loyalty of the people back of the team ought almost to be enough to warrant a pennant for that city, says Milwaukee Sentinel. Unfor- tunately, perhaps, pennants have to be won in other ways.

BYR0N's QUICK TONGUE

Bill Byron, the National league umpire, has a quick tongue. He was accosted by a fan after a recent game between the Card inals and Dodgers, and the fan remarked:
 "Bill, I think you missed de- cision on Daubert in the second inning"
 "Wen, perhaps I did," replied the singing arbiter, "but in the course of a year I make about 500,000 decisions in umpiring 154 games, and if miss only one in a game I'm great umpire"

Worried the Boss.

'I couldn't get rid of him. Every time I waited on a customer he ran along in front of the bar parallel with me and asked me how I could act that way and if he hadn't been a good fel- low when he had it. I never knew him when he had it. Well, anyway, he pleaded, demanded and talked about that dollar until one o'clock in the morning. When I started home he started after me.
 up at the corner he asked me, throwing his arms out wide, if I real ized that there was one above looking down on me and watching what was going to do about the dollar.
 "Well, I can stand just so much. I didn't have cent in my pocket, but called to hackman know and asked him if he would let me have a quarter. He gave it to me and gave it to that blockhead and told him that if I ever saw his face again would knock him from under 1t. I bid him good-by for ever in this life.''
 The boss paused.
 "WellT was the natural inquiry, ''what happened today?"
 The boss hissed through his teeth.
 "He came in and asked me for the seventy-five cents I owed him."

DIAMOND NOTES

Batsmen say Bob Groom is better than he ever was. The Dodgers look like real winners to New York and Brooklyn scribes. The St. Louis Browns possess bat ting punch to help out their pitchers. Several scouts are said to be angling for Leo Witter, the Newark outfielder. We don't know who the father of baseball is, but we bet he was all ways turned down for worlds series tickets.
 Honus Wagner spoke a mouthful when he said that many a ball player declines because he doesn't decline enough.
 Frank Gilhooley has discarded his crutches and is now able to use the foot which he injured at Washington on July 3.
 When Rariden is through with base ball he ought to make a good waiter. He gets more free passes than any other player.
 McGraw denies the report that he proposes to quit the Giants at the close of the 1917 season. The Giants quit McGraw last year.
