Walter Johnson's failure to win his
'econd game against New York was a
bitter dose to Washington. and the
bitterness OF the dose was not confined
% Washington because there was a
'ational hope that the great veteran
would win It least one game in this
series. Johnson could be figured on
by his work of the past to pitch a
-ood second game against the Giants
hough losing the first. but he failed.

said Daubert disregarded the advice
of his physicians in returning TO the
lineup. Later, he remarked 10 DR..
Hines il probably was his last game
in the major league and he did not
want people to think Jake Daubert
was a staller."
Jacob Ellsworth Daubert was born
April II. 1885, in the mining town Of
Shamokin. Pa. He started his base
ball career in 1906, playing his first
professional engagement with the
Kane tPa.) semi-professionaI club.
In 1907 he Joined the Marion. Ohio.
club in the old Ohio Pennsylvania
League and made his major league
debut with Cleveland the following
year. but was released under option
to Nashville of the Southern League.
Recalled by Cleveland in 1909,
Daubert was sold to Toledo in the
American Association and finished
out the year with Memphis Of the
Southern League. The next year
became d regular first baSeman,
sons before coming to Cincinnati
His playing was a big factor in the
winning by the Reds OF their first
National League pennant in fifty
years in 1919 and subsequently the
world series.
Daubert was married and the father
Of two children.
Jake Daubert had intended pur-
chasing interest in the Reading club
of the International League, says
Walter Dunn, sports editor of the
Reading Tribune, who is here for the
world series. President MacCormack
Moore Of the club held a conference
with Daubert while the Reds were
East on their closing series OF the sea-
son.
Daubert was especially interested
in becoming manager, playing first
for the Reading team, as he has one
of the largest coal washeries along
the upper Schuy1vin River. The
washeries are said to be valued at
$3.50, 0,000 and it was important that
Jake be at his enterprise more during
the base ball season.
Manager Jack Hendricks of the
Cincinnati club told the writer in
New York that he had offered to give
Daubert his release in order to dicker
and possibly become part owner and
leader of the Reading organization
but when waivers were asked by
Garry Hernann's club. Boston Braves
and Pittsburgh Pirates refused to
permit the big first sacker to get
from the Heydler circuit. For that
reason President Moore of Reading

II Johnson had not run with his
head down when he turned first and
kept on toward second after he had
hit to left field. The Nationals start
ed well in the seventh but the punch
was not there.
Losing the NTH game put the Mats
In tight place. but they were in tight
places previously many times during
the regular season Of 1924. Ability to
come from behind and win is the
quality that won the pennaut for
them.
History May Repeat.
Washington is not the first team
that has come down to the sixth game
with only two victories against three
for the other fellow. II 1t can win it's
third game and tie the series right in
front of their home folks it will be
fulfilling every good word that has
been said OF il. II it fails, il will
simply be repeating the history OF
many other world series losers in
cluding the Giants.
Zachary seems to be the last stand
OF the Nationals. II that broad-shoul
dered, rough -and-ready boy has his
best working suit on and his mind is
firmly made UP that he is going back
to Carolina with medals hanging OH
his chest, the Giants are likely to
have a hard time TO beat him. He Is
the pitcher who appears to be quail
fed to do the most effective work
against the Giants when he is in good
condition.
If Zachary fails Washington the aft
ermath of the world series in the Ma
tional Capital will be rather tasteless.

SHERWOOD
is OPPOSED FOR
STATE POSITION
College Instructors Reported
Circulating Petition
Against Him,

A petition against the appointment
Of Henry Noble Sherwood, history
professor. Franklin College, to sue
ceed Benjamin Burris as State SUI
perintendent of public instruction,
who is to become head of the State
Normal College at Muncie, is being
circulated by college professors and
school superintendents in the State,
it is understood.
The opposition to Sherwood, it is
said, is the result of alleged irregu-
larities in statements made by Sher-
wood several years ago. in certify
ing that two Franklin college stu
dents had received a certain amount
of practice teaching required for
State teachers licenses. The State
board of education investigated the
certificates and revoked the licenses
issued as a result Of the certificates.
G. o. p. Nominee
Sherwood is Republican nominee
for State superintendent. Burris has
been named TO head the Muncie Col
lege, Sept. l. Burris is to confer
Win Governor Emmett r. BranCH
Monday as to whether he will remain
the rest of his term until March is,
or resign to take up his new duties,
Sept. 1. In case he resigns It Is
believed Sherwood would be ap-
pointed by virtue of his nomination
by the Republican party at the Stats
convention.
Other Matters Probed
The State board also investigated
certificates made by Prof. R. H. Kent,
acting head of the department of
education. Kent, it is said, testified
that he signed the four certificates
under protest, but was advised by
Sherwood to proceed, After the
fourth certificate he refused to sign
any more, it is said.
The State board appointed a com
nittee to investigate the whole case
and the board fixed the responsibility
for the certificates upon Sherwood.
Sherwood. then dean OF the college,
resigned as dean, but was retained
in the history department.

CRIMINAL COURTROOM. CHI
CAGO, Aug. e.-Childhood dreams,
centering on "a king-slave phan-
tasy," made Nathan F. Leopold, Jr.,
what he is today, DR.. Harold S. HUI
bert, alienist, testified today at the
hearing of Leopold and Richard Loeb
for the Staying of Robert Franks,
schcolboy.
Leopold's ''king-slave phantasy'
started when he was still a child, and
was given impetus by reading Of the
story Of Saint Christopher by his
governess. the doctor said.
AS he dwelt on the subject Of being
the perfect slave" Leopold sought
for some one to enact the role of the
perfect king, the witness said. Leo.
poId visioned himself as the per
feet slave" of the perfect and pow
erful king" eliminated in his finding
of Loeb, the witness said.
Leopold felt that Loeb was much
superior and that he was his ideal
of the superman," the witness said.
This urge to be the perfect slave
drove Leopold to every crime
brought out at the hearing, including
the murder, the witness said.
This phantasy made Leopold
what he is" DR.. Hubert testified.
"A person usually is a result of
what he contemplates, admires and
loves
