opposition this afternoon and, barring
bad weather, a big attendance was ex-
pected to turn out for the exhibition.
Griffith brought his regulars here, among
them being Walter Johnson, Sam Rice,
Judge, Roth and the one and only Nick

reported as having a full supply Of funny
stunts and fans were anticipating an at
ternoon Of Joy.
Walter Johnson was expected to dem
onstrate his pitching prowess few in
nings against the Indians II the ground
was not too wet. but the Hen
drlcksmen were not fearful Of his speed
and hoped TO chalk up a few markers
on the twirling wizard. Frank Brewer,
$4,000 home run hitter from the Inter-
national League, also was with the GTifr-
men, and the fans were anxious to see
him try for few distance clouts.
