Andrews Orders Edmund Bur-

Out to "cIean Up"
By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH

BY ROBERT s. THORNBURGH
The Government has decided
that the 1925 world baseball series
between the Pittsburgh Piratey
and the Washington Griffmei
must be strictly "dry,p It was
learned at the Treasury today.

mund Burnitz, of Baltimore, an
Administrator Frederick Baird, d
Pittsburgh, will be held account

the Volstead act during the base
ball classic.
For Rubs Only
Orders have been issued to Bur.
nitz, who as admiuistratoF for Mary
land. Delaware and the District Of
Columbia, is directing the drive %
dry UP the National Capital. to con-
centrate sufficient force of agents
here to keep the alcoholic flow con
fined to that employed in rubbing
down the players.
Most celebrations in the National
Capital have been attended with
the flow of alcoholic beverages. The
last world series is said to have
been no exception.
Pittsburgh will have its biggest

The enforcement problem il said
to be particularly difficult in Pitts
burgh. Baird recently conferred
with Andrews on the. situation and
steps have been taken since to
check infractions of the dry
statutes.
Special Detail To Aid.
A special detail from the flying
dry squadron probably VA be sent
to Pittsburgh to assistHthe local
Federal authorities during the
series.
The baseball classic will present
the first severe test of the effici
ency of the Governments new dry
machine Officials are watching
the results carefully to determine
the ability of the decentralized sys
tenn to meet big emergencies.
During the 1924 series, prohibition
enforcement was in charge of Come
missioner Roy A. Haynes, admin
istration having been directed from
Washington.
Reports have reached the Wash
ington and Pittsburgh authorities
that smugglers and bootleggers are
already active in attempting to
concentrate sufficient supplies Of
liuuor in the two cities to meet the
requirements of the baseball fans.
Prices on good Scotch and other
imported liquors will hop skyward
during the series, according to re-
ports.
In view of Andrews announced
policy of passing up the hip
pocket toters'' and other small
violators to throw the Federal dry
strength against sources of supply,
it is understood that the prohibit
ton administrators will direct their
efforts to the big bootleggers and
liquor runners.
The minor operators and con
sumers will be left to the loca!

want to warn the Pittsburgh fans
and the Pittsburgh team itself
not to expect a broken down club
of old men to face the Pirates
in the world series.
Despite the advancing years of
our club, it has all kinds of speed
and strength and our experience
in this and other crises will
counteract, if not over-balance the
younger team. we are to meet.
Our alleged ''old men" can do
everything that the so-called Pitts
burgh kids" can do and they have
careers back Of them proving their
ability to do it at the right time
and most effectively.
We can run bases with the best
teams in the American League and
Pittsburgh's youngsters will be no
different for us than the same
kind of young men we faced all
summer in the ranks OF the Phila-
delphia Athletics. Nevertheless, we
beat the Athletics outN for the
American league pennantA.
The world champion Griffmen
are not a cTeaking piece of old
baseball machinery Just barely
running along, but a wide awake
gang of heady players who are
i'm and in some cases, just little
beyond what is generally termed
baseball prime"
The other night we were given a
testimonial banquet here by Fred
Bucbholz. a Washington fan. and
Clark Griffith predicted that |
would still be pitching ball at the
age Of fifty. Wen. he was putting
il bit strong. although Joe Nc
Ginnity was pitching up to this
season and he was older than that,
unless | am mistaken.
| don't expect to be pitching IN
til I'm fifty years of age. but l
honestly cannot say when | shall
have to quit. Furthermore. if a
man takes care Of himself from the
beginning and meets with no seri-
~ous accidents. he ought to be able
to carry on far, beyond his fortieth
year. Babe Adams, of the Pirates,
and Jack Quinn. of the Athletics,
are cases in point.

Joseph was passing the corner of
Fourteenth and L streets northwest
the other day, on his way home
from school, when he saw on the
sidewalk large green strip of
pasteboard. with various cryptic
symbols printed thereon.
1t was a ticket to the world series!
A grandstand ticket at that-Section
0. Row 8!
Did Joseph run down to Pennsyl-
vania avenue to sell the ticket TO
scaplers for $25, more Or less? Flu
ture histories will record that he

that he had lost the ticket, but had

Last night the elated loser of
the ticket came up the steps of the

His joy at recovering the precious
bit of paper was almost equal to
his establishment at being advised
that it had beea found.
