Now Garland has revised his de-

And all because a baby daughter
has been born to his wife in Boston

not for himself. One third of it he'll
settle on his wife and baby. though
he and his wife have separated.
Takes Only $500
Five hundred dollars he'll take to
spend for needed Improvements on
the humble farm house he occupies
here on the land he tills with his
own hands.
The rest he'll distribute among 10
friends. They'll spend it to do good
he's convinced.
When Charles Garland refused his
share of the estate his brother, Ham
iton, a Harvard student, announced
he would likewise refuse his share
when he became Of age
But now Hamilton, too, is said to
have changed his beief and probably
will accept the $1,00O,000, though he
won't tell why.

EXPECT REGIONAL
MEET To Be HERE

The Southwestern Regional outdoor
athletic meet of the Pennsylvania
probably will be held in Richmond in
August, according to word received
at the local Pennsy Offices. Nine other
divisions aside from the Richmond d.
vision will compete in this meet, and
those qualifying in the respective
events will go to the finals at Altoona
in October.
Track and field events will hold the
attention of the majority of the ath-
letes of the Pennsylvania divisions,
while baseball, tennis, boxing, swim
ming, trapshooting, horseshoe pitching,
quoits, shuttle board, wrestling, tug-of-
war and other events will be entered
into by the best on the Pennsy system
of this region.
Provided the meet is brought to
Richmond, the local management I'M
der Omer Todd would have one of the
biggest tasks in taking care of the
athletes which has faced the local rail-
road authorities in some time.

JOHNSON IS SHUTOUT
MONARCH OF MAJORS;
HAS RECORD OF 95

WASHINGTON, June TO- Local
baseball statisticians digging back into
the records OF Walter Johnson, who by
blanking the Chicago White Sox Sum

Train" of the Washington staff en-
tered the ultra-select class of pitchers
with lifetime average of 900 or bet
ter but he has clinched his title to the
champion shutout king of the majors.
Sundays blank drawn by the White
Sox was the 95th Johnson has handed
out In his big league career.
Johnson's total number of sgt vic
tories against pit defeats for an av-
erage OF SOL is considered a remark
able tribute to his prowess as he has
been backed by clubs of a second class
IN a great majority of the sixteen
seasons he has worn a Washington
uniform. There is only one pitcher
now in harness who is considered to
have ghost of a chance to top John
son in shut out fame and that is
Grover Alexander, of the Chicago
Cubs. As Alexander had but eighty
! goose-egg verdicts to his credit at the
StN!' VI Inc present season the cndnce
! OF his overhauling the Washington
twirler is deemed exceedingly slim.
Third on the list of shutout artists
is the veteran Babe Adams of Pitts
burg, who had 43 to his credit when
the season opened. Next in line are
Jim Vaughn and George Tyler with Al
| and "a respectively, but both of whom
are regarded as about finished. John
sons closest rival in the American
league is Dutch Leonard, Tiger hold
out now suspended for pitching for
an outlaw club. He is credited with
33 shutout victories Others who have
over a score of shutouts chalked up,
not including this seasons results, are
Joe Bush, 81; Bob Shawkey, 26; Carl
Mays, %; Stan Coveleskie, %, and
Ray Caldwell, %.
