RIGID PROBE BEGUN ON HIRING
SUBSTITUTES FOR PRISON TERMS

As brought to the attention of the
President, the story concerned three
persons-a money. lender, who had
loaned $500 to man sentenced to
Jail, who in turn took the $500 and
paid 1t to a substitute to serve his
thirty day sentence. The substitute
was said to have objected that the
pay was insufficient, and through his
activities brought the money lenders
act to the attention Of the court. The
money lender was said to have been
convicted on a charge of conspiracy,
and it was to free the money lender
from serving his sentence that execu-
tive clemency was asked.
How such q transaction could be
carried out without collusion on the
part Of some officials of the govern
ment concerned. was q question pro-
pounded. and 1t was freely predicted
that there would be far-reaching in

Walter Warmoth made a big
hit with Washington fans in that
final game of the year against
the Yankees. When he famed
Babe Ruth with the bases crowded,
the very skies were torn asunder
by the wild shouts Of the Georgia
avenue rooters.
Warmoth is a big fellow, Of
chunky build. showing signs of
knowing something about pitching,
at least with Pete Lapan in there
behind the bat. He might not
have looked so good with another
backstop. But, pitching to his
old sidekick, Warmoth made the
grade with the Griffs and is now
considered a good prospect foI
1923.
Before reporting to Manager
Milan, Warmoth took part in

fields Little Rock club in the

credited with fourteen victories
and twenty-one defeats, for an
average of but 400.
