He Learns Slowly.

TOSLIN showed no great speed
TX in picking up the fine points
of fielding, though much time was
spent with him. His feet were
frequently in his way. Three
times he crashed into the concrete
wall in left field in Washington
chasing fly balls. Once he broke
a wrist. Another time he sprained
an ankle. e
"The next time you run into
that wall, it'll cost you $780,"
growled Clark Griffith. "Youll
have it weakening under the at
tack and some day the crowd will
fall in and be hurt"
Goslin grinned sheepishly, but
he knew what was in Griffith's
mind. And he has not bumped
that wall, or any other wall, since.
AS a batsman, he" was also a
pit slow to learn the finesse of
the clouting art. At first he
drove all his hits to left field.
He simply could not pull his blows
to right, the natural field for a
southpaw~ hitter. The exposition
began playing for him as left
field hitter and he lost many safe
slams on that account.
The Washington times., 1925-07-18

Coming to the Washington club,
Goslin was raw, awkward young
outfielder. He had played the
garden for less than a single sea-
son when he was showed into the
Griffs' lineup and kept in there
through the final month of the
campaign. Clark Griffith had
faith in him and wanted to see
just what he would do against big
league pitching.

explained the boss of the Wash
ihgton club, "and | want to- be
convinced of it. If he can hit,

a natural gift"
So that raw, green kid from
New Jersey stayed in the lineup
against spitballers and southpaws,
swinging from his heels and lay
ing a foundation for popularity
by the weight of his wallops.

WHEELER NET IS REALLY
CAST FOR II OTHERS

Senator Wheeler and this Gordon
Campbell conspiracy case is that
Senator Wheeler on one occasion
discussed Campbell's financial at
fairs with Mr.. Booth, then Solicitor
of the Interior Department, who
used to live in Butte. Montana and
who was an old acquaintance Of
Senator Wheeler's.
Mr.. Campbell, subsequently, while
Senator Wheeler was in Europe. is
charged with having tried to bride
Mr.. Booth.
The problem is: Was Senator
Wheeler an unconscious and limo.
cent link, or was he knowing and
guilty link, in the alleged corrupt
negotiations between Mr.. Campbell
and Mr.. Booth?
The Government itself does not
express any opinion on that point
until all the evidence has been
heard by the grand jury. The
Governments position is said to be
that 1t in fact did not dare to leave
Senator Wheeler out of the grand
jury inquiry for fear that 1t might
with some propriety be accused Of
leaving him out simply because of
his being a United States Senator
and a political opponent, but that
the Government absolutely reserves
its opinion as to his guilt or in
nocence until all pertinent witnesses
have been heard.
Doubt Square Deal.
Senator Wheeler's advisers, how
ever, are not yet convinced that
the Government really intends to
give Senator Wheeler an impartial
and neutral deal before the grand
jury; and Senator Wheeler accord
ing has not yet definitely made up
his mind whether he will appear
before the grand jury or not.
The grand jury proceedings began
yesterday and are expected to last
perhaps two or three weeks, in
view Of the number of persons
thought possibly to be involved in
Mr.. Campbell's alleged conspiracy.
An oddly of the situation Is that
numerous Democrats want Senator
Wheeler to stay away from the
grand jury room and defy the
Government. out of his complete
consciousness of his own innocence,
while numerous high Republicans
are ardently hoping that Senator
Wheeler will appear before the
grand jury and will make a speech
absolutely clearing himself of all
association with the alleged Camp
bell conspiracy and thus relieve
this Republican Administration of
the political embarrassment Of in.
dieting him.

during a period when Mr.. Camp"
bell was engaged in operations
which have involved him In charges

and of attempting to get permits
on Federsll Gil lands in such a
way as to defraud the Government.

which deals with Federal oil lands,
and the recipient of letter from
Gordon Campbell offering him
valuable rewards for efforts on his
part to secure the approval of the

permits on numerous Federal Gil

case is seen to be an incidental

pensation for representing Mr..
Campbell as a lawyer before the
Interior Department. On that
charge a Senatorial committee, con-
sisting of five Senators, inquired
into the evidence, and four of thcm
namely, Senators Borah, McNary.
Swanson and Caraway-found him
absolutely innocent, while the fifth
Senator STERLING, Of South Dakota),
found only that the grand jury in
Montana may have been justified in
holding Senator Wheeler for trial
and proof.
This new case here has essential
ly nothing to do with whether OK
not Senator Wheeler was Mr..
Campbell's legal representative In
lawful negotiations with the In
terror Department. 1t essentially
has to do with whether or not Sen
ator Wheeler, irrespective of his
legal services to Mr.. Campbell, en-
deavored to promote Mr.. Camp
bells alleged unlawful and corrupt
scheme to get Federal oil land per-
mits to which he was not legally
entitled.
Friends Of Senator Wheeler, and

mics Of his, are Indignantly in

Wheeler could have taken part in
any such crime.

Freezing of AntitOxin
Has Not Destroyed It,
Experts Here Declare

In the opinion OF Washington
experts the freezing Of the diph-
iberia antitoxin which has just
been taken to plague striken Nome,
Alaska, by dog sledges which bat
tied Attic storms for nearly q
week, will not destroy the effec-
tiveness Of the drugs
In many quarters fear was en-.
pressed that the freezing OF the
precious antitoxin, for which men
rfsked their lives and which could
not be purchased In Nome today
for it's weight in gold, might have
DESTROYED its essential properties.
At the hygienic laboratory of
the United States Public Health
Service experts In the preparation
and use of serums and antitoxins
today expressed the belief that
the freezing would not materially
destroy the effectiveness.
DR.. McCOy's View.
Doctor George w. Mccoy, d.
rector of the bureau. stated that
''as far as is known. freezing has
no effect on the antitoxin," though
he stated that freezing for long
time had NOT been tried expert
mentally.
There il nothing In the diph-
liberia serum that could be mate

said. This serum is widely used
in the United States and has uIl-
doubtedly been frozen many times,
