his career. The Senators, of course, would never let him go. Year after year he was the only drawing card they had. People came to see John- son, not the rag-tail team.
 Clarke Griffith, oldtime pitcher and shrewd trader, became presi- dent of the Senators in 1920. Big Train was going strong then. Four years later he led American League hurlers, grabbed the league award as the most valuable player. Salary probably $12,OOO.
 WOULD YOU?
 Babe Ruth grabbed his first Swear contract at $52,0OO per. Were there any high-priced bids for the great Johnson during that time? Would you have made one if you were a wealthy club owner? So would I.
 Anyhow, during this period Washington hit the first division three times, once as pennant win ner. And Johnson, at long last, achieved his long withheld no-hit- ter, which is largely luck anyhow. He never got raise above $12,OOO, though. Maybe he never asked for

it. He was strictly an art-for-art's sake character.
 The price tag scarcely concerned Johnson. If the Washington club blocked his making more money there's no written record of John son complaint. However, the Sena- tors did trade and sell many ball. players. But not the matchless Big Train.
 AN HONEST MAN
 One of them was guy named Joe Cronin. He was Clarke Grifith's son. in-law. Old Griff sold the boy to the Red Sox for $25O,OOO because he wanted to see Joe better himself" or words to that effect.
 Johnson was meek honest uncom- blaming character with rigid princi- pies. A tobacco company once offered him $10,0O0 to boost a brand of cigarets. He didn't smoke any brand So he declined, when a stroke of the pen would have meant as much money as he earned in seasons mound toll.
 To the fans, umpires and players Johnson was king, and one of ball. don's saints. But if the meek are to inherit the earth the magnates will resist to the last payday. You can go to sleep on that.

 VERY UNDERPAID
 And, considering his genius, the Big Train was the most shockingly underpaid star baseball has known. His top salary was $12,OOO. Many years he labored for a fraction of that. He was the Big Train working for whistle-stOp wages.
 The apo1ogists for pinchpenny mag mates skipped blithe1y over this. The Washington club was always in the red, they say, and it did its best by Walter.
 Bunk! No Club survives 46 years without profits.
 SIGNED FOR LIFE
 Economically, Johnson's story is one to make baseballs tightfsted horse traders smack their lips and slap their thighs. The Senators in 1907 made what was to be the greatest pitching investment of all time. Joe Cantillon, then pilot of the club, got Johnson for exactly NOTHING. A scout, rowing the sandlots, watched the youngsters freball, promptly handcuffed him and brought him to Cantillon. Joe took one look at the kids stuff and Walter was signed for life.

(OOnunucQ from rage One) Research Center poll reveals. The NORC survey showed that 87% of Americans questioned feel that if the people had final say, neither country would start a war against the other.
 The same survey, conducted among people of all occupational and educational backgrounds, re- vealed that 21 % of the public cam not name single cause of disagree ment between the U. s. and Russia while the remaining 79% are in- clined to answer in general terms like 'sfear," s'distrust" and so on. Although a majority indicated they felt causes of disagreement exist, 73% said they did not think the differences were worth going to war about.
 However, several MORO surveys since VI Day have found that six out of every 10 people in this coun- try expect the U. s. to fight an- other war within the next 25 years.

Ii is believed also that there is
good chance that the Madison lime
producing area may fbe far wider
in extent than the everything highly
productive Tensleep sand. This be-
lief is based on the fact this struc-
ture seems to flatten with depth,
with the Tensleep producing area
much wider than the Frontier sand
from which this field originally
produced.

Fonder Scores Fourth
Midget Race Victory

George Fonder is Lansdale, Pa.
youngster who walks with a limp
as a result of an injury suffered
while in training as an aviation
cadet during the war. But the ef-
fects of that crackup haven't pre-
vented F'onder from taking over as
the top driver in the weekly midget
auto races at West Lanham Speed
way.
Fonder notched his fourth 25-lal
feature win of the season last night
when he pushed his souped-up ForG
V-8 past the experienced Mike
Josephs in the late stages. Josephs
had enough steam left to take sec
ond place in stubborn duel with
Shorty McAndrews. Charley Miller
was third, followed by Lou Volk
and Walt Fair.
A 12-lap track record was set ir
the first qualifying heat wher
McAndrews, pushed all the way by
Ted Tappett, spun the distance III
2:57.38. Tappett came back to take
the second semifnal and was vel
ahead in the early laps of the final
when engine trouble forced him into
