Griffith Predicts
 Big Ball Season

Clark Griffith, president of the Washington club on rainy days and
 manager on working days, was a call CT at the new Yankee rendezvous on moving day afternoon. Griffith and Col. Huston talked over some busi- ness matter as the furniture was be- ing moved in. Gradually the old bat tile lines in the American League are being effaced. Griffith was on the Johnson side in the late unpleasant ness, but holds no grudges. The 'tOId Fox" now a si1ver-crowned veteran of many wars, never looked better, and thinks he has a team that is go- ing somewhere.
 This will be a banner baseball sea- son." declared Griffith. There is a reawakening of interest all along the line. There are not near as many visitors in Washington now as durine the war, yet we opened up to big busi- ness. Last Sunday the attendance was surprisingly large, and I believe we will show you a whopper crowd a week from next Sunday when the Tanks play in Washington-esp 1y if Ruth is in the lineup. Similar conditions prevail in other cities. Sc far I have heard no objection to the new scale of prices. The fans realize think, that baseball was the last great amusement enterprise to adjust prices in keeping with overhead charges and even then the raise ab- sorbs the war tax and is a moderate boost"

CARPENTER IN
 SPEED WORKOUT
Appears for First Time In Ring Costume at New
 York Show

Georges Carpenter appeared for the first time in ring costume in New York when he boxed two rounds with Jules Lenaers, his sparring partner, at the Navy Club show in the 71st Regiment Armory last night. The great French boxer lived up to all the things that have been said of his brilliant work with the gloves.
 It was an unhappy moment for poor M. Lenaers. for Georges, despite the fact that he hasn't boxed in more than three months, went great guns when he got in motion.
 Carpenter is amazing when stripped for action. In his street clothes he does not impress one as being power bull, but in war paint Georges is all speed, punch, and rare ability. Ad- mira1 J. H. Glennon. commandant o1 the Third Naval District, fanked by 3 big gathering of sailor lads, saw the European wonder in action.

 Sometimes a clear, well fabricated brain doesn't accompany that other prize-ring virtue-a stiff wallop. When it does, fiShtdom g1impseS a cham pion-or something near it. When it doesn't the unfortunate boxer is lucky if he becomes even a near champion. Such was the case of Sailor. Burke, who will be remem- bered not many years back as one of the toughest middlew eights ever pro- duced in or about Manhattan.
 Burke, who wasn't an Irishman at all, but whose real name was Prosser, achieved fame as the first man to knock out Joe Grim, 'fThe Iron Man. This was a feat that Bob Fftzsim- mons, Jack Johnson, Joe Cans and all the heavy-hitters of that period had failed to accomplish Burke could surely hit and had he more brains and a, little more heart he might have become champion.
 When the Sailor followed instruc- ! tions from his corner he usually ter ! minated a bout with knockout. But there is always the possibility of re- l ceiving a chop on the chin when l turning the head cornerwards for in- l struction. Burke's manager realized l this but he hated to let the mariner work out his fstic destinies with his | own unreliable noodle. Then a bril- | liant idea struck him.
 'Say Sailor,'' piped the mentor | 'FYale and Princeton use number sig nals for moves on the football field 1 Why not the same thing for Sailor l Burke in the ring?"
 Burke's face flushed grin. 'FWha

Wins His SOwn Game
 With Hit Tn Sixth
Pitcher Marty walshs Blow Defeats Springfield In First
 Sunday League Game at Newdeld Park BOO Present

With two out. a man on third and the game tied with the pitcher at bat, Pitcher Marty Walsh wa11oped the ball for a single over first base in the sixth inning against Springfield at Newfeid park yesterday afternoon and won his own game. Layher, who was on third at the time, raced home with what proved to be the winning run. The Americans eventually won out, 8 to 4.
 Up to that time Pitcher Walsh struggled through the battle, having trouble in various stages, but man. aged to pull himself out without a whole lot of danger. His hit in the sixth erased any feeling the fans had against him even though many be- Iieved he should have been jugged by Manager Ed.
 That hit proved to be the opening of a further rally because Martin singled to right, giving the pitcher z chance to make third base. It wa! such exertion for him, however, tha he was taken out and replaced b! Paske who is a much more speeriel
 man on the paths and he scored ovel the double steal route.
 Third Baseman Rice displayed some sharp fielding in the contest knocking down several hard drive for outs at first and he robbed th' Americans from a couple of hits. Or the defensive he was all that coult be expected at the hot corner. There were just 2,900 paid admis sfons, but some of the younger fam | saw the game by crawling througl the various holes in centerfield fence

it was the general strain attending a
 big fight or it might have been too
 large in order for Burke's gray mat
 ter. Or maybe it was one of Lewis
 heavy wallops. But at any rate
 Burke's substitute for brain work this signal code-didn't work. The sailor FORGOT the numbers and what they represented. He became
 so confused trying to remember them
 and also follow instructions that ! Lewis made a show of him-finaIly knocking the Brooklyn star out in the sixth round.
 After that Burke never used the
 number system in a fight. But his l fighting days were numbered for Will | lie Lewis taught him that there is no i homemade recipe for brains. Burke 1 fought with his own head after that 1 but he didn't become a world-beater l or give that type of fisticuffers very l great concern.

GAN RENEW
 WAR INSURANCE

Ex-ServIce men were strongly urged to take up renewals of war insurance that had lapsed by Colonel R. G. ChoIomeIy Jones at the United Forum last night.
 Colonel Cholomely said that Joseph F. Deegan, a member of his staff, would be at the Red Cross headquar- ters in the County Court house every day this week from ? to o'clock in the afternoon to attend to all matters relating to renewals and that after this week the matter would be in the hands of the local branch of the Red Cross.
 The speaker pointed out that an ex- service men and women have the privilege of renewing their insurance any time within IS months after dis charge, or until July 1. 1920, which ever is the later date. The new gov ernmental insurance plan, he said, was considerably cheaper than insur- ance issued by the old line companies, and gave more mum advantages. The speaker said that nearly 150, GOO claims for compensation for service disability have already been allowed, and payments to the disabled men are now being made by the bureau each month to the extent of nearly five and 8 half million dollars.
 i The new insurance plan of the gov ern1nent is to be permanent. The in sured pays from to 20 per cent. less than they would pay to old line in- 1 surance companies. The government pays all administrative expenses, and the insured thus receives the benefit of the low cost of insurance.
 Colonel Jones explained that the new insurance is payable in a lumF sum, in cash on death, or in a number of monthly instal1Inents not less than 36. The converted insurance is fur nished at cost, and has full cash sur render and loan values, with the usual paid up insurance and extended insurance common to all insurance
 policies in private companies.
 The representative of the War Risk
 Bureau in the County Court house
 will explain all the conditions of the
 new insurance plan to all service mer and. women.

PARTISAN CROWD
 BOTHERS FIELDERS

Accounting for the defeat of the Bridgeport team in Pittsfeld Friday, Secretary Jimmy Kelly made the fol- lowing statement:
 Fridays game was played on the unfenced common,'' he said. The crowd around center field was very partisan and hindered the local out felders. Manager Birmingham want ed to play Saturdays game under the same conditions but Manager Walsh refused The regular playing park was under two or three inches of water and Umpire Brown called the game on account of wet grounds. There were over 2,500 fans in the park at the time.
