nu:il army field meet at the Ak
Sar-Hen track yesterday, with
a total of 38 points. The l'th In
fantry was second with 31 points.
Fancy drill by Troop <i of the 14th
Cavalry opened the afternoon's acti
vities. The troop knew 1» tricks and
showed them off nicely. As an ex
hibition of what Uncle Sam’s boys
might do or where they would go In
on emergency, it was excellent.
Everyone of them could ride, and
every horse had been well trained.
They took the hurdles two by two
and four by four. They leaped
through fi lming arches and Just gen
erally went through that set of antics
known ns "monkey drill.”
The 100-yard dash, followed tlic
cavalry exhibition. The event went
♦o I-oveJoy of the 3d Infantry, Fort
Snelling, when lie covered tlie dis
tance in 10 seconds flat. \
That was the start of good time in
the foot races. The participants were
nil good athletes and, while no rec
ords were broken, the time made was
gnrd.
The shot putting and the pole vault
ing went on uninterrupted at the side
of the polo field, while the 880-yard
dasli was checked off and the field
artillery stepped out and demonstrat
ed its ability.

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

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.
