Who wa? the discoverer of Walter Johnson, the far-famed pitcher of the Washington American League Club? So many people have claimed this high honor that there has always been a doubt aa to who is entitled to the credit of bringing out one of the best pitcher? baseball haa ever produced. American Leegue supporters claim that Johnson tops all of the boxmen who came before him or have been exploited during his day and time. National League folks will never give up the idee that Christy Mathewaon waa the bright particular of all mound artists before him and any that have eerae after him. But, be that aa it may, the question of who was the discoverer of Welter Johnson the one to he in this article. We upon what we consider the best of authority that Catcher OHff Blankenehtp was responsible for giving the Washington club ope of'toe biggest aaaeta any club ever had.

One day while Cantlllon waa coaching on the Une? during a a telegraph messenger a telegram. The eharge was so big that ('an Ilion to pay it, but finally to open tae envelope. Tne message was from Blankenahlp. It "I have a pitcher who Is a phenom. His name is Wslter Johnson.

He is the wonder of th? lutate of Idaho. has hayseed in Ule hair hut you ought to see the moke he has. The battere cannot te bell. Hs ined seventeen eaterday. Can get the phsnom for $200.

Advise you him at once. Don't loss him. Hurry reply." CantiUon waa undecided at first. not having great faith In the enthusiasm ef hte new but after anme delay wired back: "All right, get your phenom and bring him on with you." It wa? th? moat fortunate buy that any manage? ever made. Johneon waa all that Blankenship said and more, afterward wa? proved.

It was nat ao hirky a deal for John however, for he wa? forred to be vail I. a team that he haa never beeei able fo whs a pen naat for. Still that haa not taken away any of the credit or preetlee due the great pitcher. Walter Johnson's future is well and most happily so. That Is more than enough to satisfy that modest and conscientious worker.

avi tor on? viiai laeior in Hegarty'a prediction, opinion would count little mor? than the opinions of htindreds of sandtet dope Jugglers who today afe trying to name a winner in what all believe will close struggle. Dr. Hegarty's first class team played both the Mohawk? and Mercury. He waa much prwent on both occasions and with experienced eye took In the strong points and weaknesess of th? two title-contending elevens. Here's what Dr.

Hegarty had to say when asksd for an opinion en ths big game: I think the Mohawks will win. The players work splendidly a milt, more so than the Mercury, players. Of the two teams, the Mohawks played the better foot, ball us, although they held oar men to a tie with no and Mercury defeated by two "Ths result? of th? two games do not furnish a fair basis for comparison. In tbe Mohawk game, Oeorgetourn fra? at it? best. Against Mercury we were weakened by not having Alec Anderson in the litre.

"Mercury's moat gain? tng was done through the tackle where ordinarily Anderson would have played. He waa unavailable for the game. Had he been In there I feel aure gains would have been cut down. "Mercury haa a very good backfield. CrOnln csperlslly is a fine bsck.

But tbe Mohawks hae? an unusually strong Une and with I.irarlone at fullback, backing It np, I believe that (ronin, Beyers, and Oately wtti be stopped. I.lrarione la a greet de- tensive player. "I believe the Mohawks win1 by a touchdown." The Georgetown A. player? share Dr. opinion, tt is said.

However that may be, Merenry Is a favorite to win next Sunday. In some quarters Mohawk backers are asking 2 to-1 odds. Cronln's utility to kick field goals Is swaying some fans toward Mercury. They figure that all things ala? being equal. Cronln's expert Um may decide It.

He booted goals against Qulncy. Havoc Challenged. A. C. la challenged by th? Torke Reserves.
