JOHNSON TO FACE
RED SOX TODAY
Pitcher Kibbee, of Vermont
University, Reports to
Mcbride.

BOSTON, April 22.-The game
scheduled for today between the
Nationals and the Red Sox was call
cd off on account of cold weather
shortly after IL o'clock, and thus
was the seed of a double-heade
placed under the sod.
McBride's boys spent a restful
day and will be ready to go against
the Sox tomorrow wik a determine
ton to get satisfaction for the de-
feat of yesterday. Walter Johnson
will undoubtedly get the assignment
to pitch, and will have either Pen
mock or Joe Bush in the box against
him.
The squad was augmented today
by the arrival of a new pitcher.
Frank Kibbee is his name. and he
comes from the University Of YER
mont. He is hed-headed. stands
about 5 feet IL inches, and weighs
about $50 pounds. He is a right
handler and, presumably, is a good
hitter. for he was third in the bat
ting order of his college team. When
not pitching he was used in the out
field because of his ability as a
hitter. George Mcbride will give
him a thorough trial. He was sought
last year by several clubs. and
might have had his trial in fast
company sooner, but Clyde Engel,
who was coaching at the University
of Vermont, persuaded him to finish
his college course.
"Stuffy" McInnis and President
Frazee, of the Red Sox, had a con-
ference today in regard to salary
matters, and came to an agreement
that was mutually satisfactory. The
arrangement is for this year only,
and a new contract will have to be
made next year.
