Homage Accorded
Veteran Johnson
DESPITE His Defeat

Pittsburgh, Oct. 1b-tAF)-Ine
big Train" of baseball has been
wrecked, but will be back on the line
within a few months.
While friends blamed slippery rails
for the upset, the Train" itself,
Walter Perry Johnson, of the Sena-
tors, remarked:
ut was az fair for one as for the
other"
He was sorry, of course, but his
head was held high and at the age
of 38 he looked forward to conauests
on the diamond.
II gave them all / had but it was
not enough" he said. my arm ana
my injured leg, wrapped in bandages
felt fine all the way. They beat us,
and 1 guess that's all there is to Il"
Pittsburghers, gone wild again af-
ter sixteen years, became silent as
baseballs great veteran left his
quarters and went through the
grandstand to his waiting car. Hand
after hand reached to grasp his and
many time he VS. told:
Were sorry, Walter. that 1t had
to be you"
So Walter left what may prove to
have been his last worlds series
game, a vanquished pitcher receiving
the honors of a conqueror, and In
hostile city.

Washington Fans
Sorry Over Failure
Of Walter Johnson

Washington. Oct. 15-(AP)-Wash-
ington fandom took to heart the Sem
ators' defeat by Pittsburgh today. it's
regret heightened by the failure of
"Old Barney" Johnson to carve more
deeply his niche in basebalrs hall of
fame by winning three games in a
worlds series.
Thousands in the streets before
player boards cheered the old warrior
in the early innings while Washing
ton held lead, but they gave way
to expressions Of sympathy and dis
may as the Pirates battered down
the margin.
AS succeeding innings added to
Pittsburgh's attack, even his
staunchest supporters were calling
for Manager Harris to relieve Bar
ney of his burden. The eighth In
ming, when the Pirates took the
winning lead, was hard for the loyal
lists to watch, and many left for
home.
Disappointment was also evident at
the White House, particularly on
the part of Mrs. Coolidge, ardent
Washington fan. Seated close to
radio set, she listened in on the game
from start to finish. Pres. Coolidge,
a warm admirer of walter Johnson,
also listened to the earlv innings. but
as the game was slowed up by rain,
he was forced to return to his desk,
where he learned the result soon at
ter the contest was over.

back in the lineup.
The work Of Dick Drummond at
fullback is much better than formerly

his gain of speed. He gets away much
quicker than before the Brown game
and is powerful enough to make any

Pittsfield, Oct. 15.-Saturday M. c.
I. meets Higgins Classical Institute
for the second time this year and
should it happen to be fair day
it is expected that an excellent
brand of football will be displayed.
Last Saturday. when these two teams
met at Charleston, 1t was one of the
worst days for football. The game
was played on a field covered with
four inches of slush and mud during
the very worst storm of that stormy
day. Under these conditions Meth
er team had a chance to show Its
real football ability, and next Sat-
urday it Is hoped that the day will
be such as to allow both teams to
uncork their best plays.
At Higgins last week it was royal
battle between the lines of the two
elevens, M. C. l., having the better
of the argument. The Higgins line
plays low and charges in hard and
fast. It is a pleasure to watch this
Higgins line meet the heavy, low,
oncharging line of the M. c. I. team.
If Pittsfield fans want treat next
Saturday, let them come to Hume
we'll field and watch the work of
