HOW JOHNSON WAS FOUND
Here is Real Story of Way Great
Washington Pitcher Broke Into
the American League.
DISCOVERED BY A MERE FAN

The real story OF how the Washing
ton club obtained Walter johnson, recog-
niEed as the greatest pitcher In the game
today, has never really been told. Cliff
Blankenship discovered him out at
Weiser Idaho. after watching him pitch.
Another story was to the effect that Joe
Cantillon had a friend who tipped him
off. but during the recent American
league meeting In New York President
Ben Minor related the true facts of the
coming OF Walter johnson to the WASH
ington club In 1907. Mr.. Minor had a
friend who was interested In mines in
the west. He is a native washingtonian,
but was living In New York. His name
is John Mccoy. He made frequent trips
70 Idaho, where he had interests and
one day saw Walter johnson pitching
for that team. He was impressed with
the youngster and stopping off at Wash
ington en- route east he dropped in to see
Mr.. Minor and told him of johnson. Men
In base ball always get n lot OF tips on
phenoms. and Mr.. Minor OF the Washing
ton club did not give Walter johnson ser
ious thought at the time. In a month or
so Mccoy again stopped off in Washing
ton and brought clippings showing that
Johnson had struck out twenty-five men
at Weiser. This. of course interested
Minor. who took the clippings and
handed them TO Joe Cantlllon. then man
ager OF the team. Joe. naturally. was
amused at the record. and he figured that
some time he would take II up with some
one and have the boy looked over There
the matter stood for several weeks when
Mccoy again dropped In on Minor and
asked u anything had been done about
getting johnson. He was told that there
had not and then he said Look here,
Ben. John /. Taylor OF the Boston club
Is pretty good friend OF mine and unless
you get this kid right away l will tell
him 10 send out for him" There and then
Minor got into communication with Can
tillon, Blankenship had hurt his finger
and could not play, so Minor insisted
that he be sent TO Weiser and bring
johnson 10 Washington where he could
be looked over Within about ten DAYS
Blankenship returned with Johnson. To
show that Johnson was wise business
man, even at that time, he insisted on
being guaranteed transportation back TO
his home in California II he did not make
good. Tie proved he had the making Of
n great pitcher even then and when the
season was over ne called attention to
the transportation, making the point
that n the club was willing TO pay Il In
the event he had failed is surely should
be willing to do so seeing that il had
decided to keep him. and he carried his
