Mother of Walter Johnson Will See Son Pitch Against Giants ASH1NOTON, Oct. 3.— She's the mother of the world’s greatest baseball player, but she’s never seen him play In a big league game. Rut she's just about the happiest mother in this hilarious, frenzied city today for she's going to sit near the home plate in Clark Griffith’s stadium Saturday afternoon and watch her son, Walter Perry , Johnson, hurl the first game for | Washington agninst the New York' Giants. Mrs. F. E. Johnson came all the way from her son’s farm at Coffey ville, Kan., just to see the world , series. Hie first in which Walter j will pitch after 18 years in Ihe ( American league. “I’m very, very happy over this opportunity that has roine to my son, because I think lie has earuejl it," said Mrs. Johnson today. "I haven’t seen Walter play in six or seven years, and then only in unimportant games out home. Al though I may miss some of the fine points of the game, I know enough about baseball to get a real thrill out of the game. It’s not like football. I’ve always found that stupid. "W* were all so worried." Mrs. Johnson continued, “for fear that after all these IS years of big league baseball he might have to retire with out ever having had a chance In a world series. He’s going to give up playing soon, you know, and now I think this is a good time for him to quit.” j ft Says “bugs' CRAZY MAN UCtQt* •_GOES DIZZY Sent Up to Matteawan Because He Thinks That Washington Won Pennant. >. - --——■— -^ IK THERE are any sober second thought* In Washington today they are mostly centered on what price headache powder*? The world’s series Is an event that the national office has heen looking forward to ever since (Ieorge Washington oathed the office. Now that they've got it. they’re frightened. It is the first thing that ! lias happened in recent years that doesn’t mean an investigation. The only other time that the team ever c.-une out from under the ether was about 10 years ago when they won 17 straight games. The city started talking in bird language then. The town must 1* laughing In cuckoo dialect today. This victory comes after years of | • hatter. Baseball enemies of Wash ington have threatened t« quaran- j tine the town and switch the fran rhi»e to Toronto. Baltimore was trying for centuries to grab the Washington fixtures and good will. But firiffith hung on and managed to whirl the wolf around in tlie re volving door. Nowr he is on velvet with hi* shoes off. It is easy walking. He will grab enough certified checks out of this series to Improve his team and strengthen his bat boy. We will say that Griff has had plenty of queer things in uniforms down there in the last dozen years. He has had pitchers with good legs. ha*erunners with good arms and batters with good gloTes. Some of those players didn't even look right in the shower baths. One rf the oddest athletes Griff had was an outfleld<r who threw his arm out at the shoulder every tims be made a throw This happened so many times that Griff finally made him take a police whlstfe out to right field with him. The lad would make a toss and then toot the Igw-and order flute. Name furnished upon request. But this year Griff decided not to depend too much on Altrock and Soharht. He was right. Griff had plenty of confidence this j spring because he entertained the: newspapermen at Tampa in March. } and advised them to lay a few heavy dimes on the Washington team. The hovs gave him the buzzer, as they: weren't used to hearing bedtime j stories so early In the day. But lie was right. \nd If Wash ington wins the world's series that championship banner will be the strangest flag that ever waved In the league of nations. _____ i Iowa Relay v Prospects Good New York, Oct. 1 —Two marks, of widely dissimilar character were com mitted on the final day of the Amer ican league s-'neon according to local statistician*.

Washington Fans Look for Johnson to Win First Game Seating Capacity of American League Park Too Small for Crowd Seeking Pasteboards. — A SHI NOT ON, n. r, Oct. 3—The lsc;i «orld scries be tween tlie Wash iiiKton Senator-, pennant winners for the first time in the American league, and the New York Giant-, National I e a g u n champions for the past four years, will start tomor row under circum stance* w h i c h have had no paral lel on the eve of the ganieN greatc-t classic. Tonight the playing issues of the struggle, a battle that promises to bring two closely-matched teams into action for tlie game'* highest stakes, came back to tlie limelight after hav ing been obscured for two days by the sensational charges of bribery iiiv ia** 4 ing the Giants and causing tlie ban- ™ ishnient of two member* of tlie club, Jimmy O’Connell and ( nzy Dolan. The eleventh hoifr cloud of scand i! that has thrown the baseball world into turmoil and threatened to set a match to the whole frame work of the game had not entirely vanished. To night, however, In the absence of any fresh sensation, the talk that was heard on every corner, the topic of conversation in all of the capital's varied walks of life, was chiefly of the game, not the suspicion that has been aroused by the bribery plot. The nation s capital was preparii-g to come into Its own in baseball f the ,*vt time in its history : nd f President Coolidge, who will throw out the first ball, down to the young est hero worshipper of "Bucky" H ris and Walter ^ihnson, Washing ton’s n-oet gallant diamond figures, the city's population will pay its tri bute to their champions. The wave of enthusiasm that swept the city when the Senators dethroned the world's champion New York Yanks In the American league pen nant fight only to be suddenly checked by the startling disclosures about the Giants came hack tonight. Only the physical limitations of the Washington park, which accomo dates S'.OOO with all eay-a space util i,ed. will prevent the majority ot the city's population from viewing ils heroes in their opening bid for tri umph. High government officials ami members of the diplomatic corps will join baseball men from all parts of the countr yand the lucky minority of fans holding pasteboards in what promises to be one of hasebali's most 4 dramatic spectacles. 1 The hope apparently uppermost in the minds of Washington fans to night was that Walter Johnson, their pitching idol, would reach the summit of his remarkable career of IS years in major league baseball by twirling the Senators to victory. Johnson, the hero of every street urchin and the admiration of th* whole city, will carry their hopes and fears in his powerful right arm. When in need of ht.p try Omaha Bee Want Ads.
