the Aoyt all'iet, as the saying goea, to' go out and commit another world series In broad day light. A world series Is about the only thing, next to a family baptism, that 'ciui get by In this country without the help o( a prince or a bathing girl, It has got to be a habit, like wearing pants on the boulevards, Md the great American loafer cries tor hti annual pun- iihmont.

A neutral point Is any place whore the autborlttea are leuleiit Ud the music la good.

Presently the gentlemen-i-It has been established that It Is possible to be a club owner and a gentleman at the same staggering In with anxious eyes and bewildered expressions, "Well, I gotta Bice little surprise for you fellers this year," opens Mr. trandls, running his long judicial fingers through nine yards of bair foliage. This sets the magnates to speculating right away. "I'll hid for Siberian tur nips for spring shrills Mr.

"You'll never guess!" he challenges coyly. Oucsaing Is one of the best things a baseball niagnato does. "You aren't going to ault?" asks Mr. R-uppert hopotully. Tho Yankee magnate Is one of those rare souls who never be.

"I'm going to have you boys get together and play a world series, lust for the novelty of tho thing." sir, you could have knocked the magnates over with a steel girder. Mr. Kbbeta proposed niue mhs and a tiger for tho man who dlg- nltiod baseball on a cash basis ot 142,500 per annum.

Tho conservative Mr. Dreytuss luggosted tliat six rahs und house cat might do Just as well. Mr. £toncham refused to stir from his position, and you couldn't blame him. The Giants' owner had the bank-roll riding on Iho next turn and everybody knows a louqh point LO is.

l-'ow pooplo approoiHto all the heavy details that must be handled In coonvction with a world series this ought to help you forget mmmmmm The dream of Kansans has come true. Walter Johnson will parade his wares In opposition to the New York Olants in two and probably throe games. It the series should be an extended one. There's a mighty good moral In Walter Johnson's record, that of loyalty and hard work Biid It has been rewarded. The modern crop of ball players which thinks of nothing but the reward chafes and cra1)S when thrown with a conslstefit loser, usually resulting In a i sale to a team which has a chance at the Johnson has Just' completed his 18th year with tho Senators.

In that time the team has finished In the first' division a couple of times, generally low In the second division. Johnson has given his best and pitched winning ball IB all those 18 years. He has been the saving grace of baseball In tho capital city. And now the loyalty and hard work ot the mighty Kansan Is to bo rewarded. He gets to pitch In a world's aeries.

Ho can pitch Washington to a championship; he may fizilo against tho powerful Otant attack. Johnson announced last year that this would bo his last In the major leagues. But having won 24 and lost 7 games this year the speed king probably will bo back again In 192B. He has said that If be can be ot help he will return. There Is one locality In this section where' Washington won't be the favorite.

That Is Halstead, homo of Krnie Maun, pitcher for the New York Olants. Maun, unlike Johnson, Isn', apt to get a chance to start a game but he may get 'I.

He has played the relief role olvely during tho past season nnd has pitched effective ball. Maun was sold to the QIantt last season by Wichita ot the Western League.

He proved a sensation In the Western League after being plucked trom the sand lot by Isboll. Just a few years ago Maun was playing semi-pro ball with a team called tho "Wichita All-Stars." This team played here on numerous occasions In 1920 and 1921 when Hutchinson's only baseball was furnished by the old Hutchinson Crain club. Winning ot the pennant by Washington has kept up Interest In the world's series. A fourth consecutive series between the two New York teams would have robbed the classic ot much of Its Interest. Fang everywhere wOiild like to hare seen the Olants beaten, Two teams came close but that Is all.

Pittsburgh and Brooklyn lacked the pennant punch. Had Brooklyn won It probably would have resulted in the meeting at least twice ot the greatest speed ball kings of all times, Johnson and Vance. Dale Gear announces Topeka will'have nothing to do with a Western Association In which the Oklahoma clubs are represented. Though vice president nt the association he did not attend Sunday's meeting at Springfield. He says Topeka Is definitely out of the Western Association as today constituted: 'probably out of organized ball for next year, With Topeka out of it, there Is no chance ot Hutchinson remaining, since this city would be out on a far limb geographically and tho other clubs would not want us if we wanted to stick.

Boston, Sept. the American League pennant won, th'a Washington Senators of 1924, who accomplished whSt Washington teams have been trying fully to do for forty years, took things easy today.

Their youthful manager, Stanley Harris, whose rise from breaker boy at a mine to leadership ot a championship team at 27 years of age has fired the yotmgsters of the country, went to Washington overnight accompanied by Walter Johnson, veteran pitcher, ond Clark Qrlttlth, president of the club. Before leaving Harris said bis team's success was due to Its fighting qualities, and that they would carry the same qualities against tho Giants Saturday. He Indicated Walter Johnson was in good shape, notwithstanding his recent Injury, and would pitch the first game. Johnson May Quit. Johnson himself, achieving an ambition to qualify for world series play alter a generation ot pitching, said this might be his last year In major league "I reallie that I cannot go much further," he said.

"My arm Is itlll good, but I know 1 hafen't got the stuff I use to have. When the season started I had fully made up my mind to retire at the end of this year. Now it all depends on what comes up this winter. Wants to Get Settled. "It I can get located somewhere in the west that would suit ma perfectly.

I want to get settled. I have tour children ond I want to got out of baseball before I get useless. It 1 can help Washington to win world'pennant this fall, that certainly would be the time to quit." The Senators have orders from Manager Harris to be back In Washington to take up serioua practice at their home park tmor- row.

McGraw's word Is final in all things pertaining to the play ot his club. Woe to the player who falls to obey instructions. Some Idea how McO'raw dominates his clul) can be gotten trom bis system in the last three world series.

It seemed that he signaled for every ball pitched. Somo of it may have been camouflage, but it's a sate bet that HcGraw did the calling in tho pinch. Quick to pardon errors ot com- mlBsion, McGraw raves at tho athlete who pulls a "bone." Likewise the player who fails to give his best efforts never falls to hear from McOrnw. His methods have been most successful. HARRIS Stanley Harris, youngest ot major league managers.

Is a diplomat. Much ot remnrkablB success in his first year as manager has been due to his expert knowledge ot hla men. He encourages tho player who Is aonslllve, pans the athlete Inclined to overstep. Harris handles no two players on the Washington club alike. Harris has the knack ot praising or taking his players to task.

In such a way that harmony always reigns supreme. No major league club has a better spirit than Washington. says spirit, more than anything else, has made bis club a pounant contender. Popular with his men, doing everything ho asks his players to do, Harris is getting results. A star as a player, he bids fair to win equal tame as a manager.

As always there Is Intense rivalry between these two schools and lack of preliminary games precludes giving any comparison of tho teams. One thing Is certain, it will he a hard fought battle from whlstlo to whistle. Liberty won the football title last year, winning two straight games. In the third game tho Slierraan eleven hattlod tho north end lads to a draw. Sherman should have a slight edge over Liberty In the fact the school has a greater enrollment.

Damanding, entreating, when coveted point came, the first exprea- slou from tho stands was a wall ot converted into howl of triumph. It Is true, Imt tho fact that the tirsl Impulse of tha Intent onlookers was to despair when they should have cheered shows how smooth was tho execution ot the greatest play 1 havo yet soon in football. Lafjiyotte had us beaten 13 to 0 nt tile end ot ttia first half ot our game ot the Polo Grounds, New York, in 1922.

In tha second halt we tied the I I score and victory was ours It we could register the extra point after touchdown. 11 was the effort to score that point that produced the play 1 am describing. We lined up to drop kick for tlio needed ponlt. But when Kopf liad called the signals he noticed tbo Lafayette secondary defense move np to the first, whereupon ho turned to Captain Brenkart and cautioned! "Be sure and make It good." That was the signal to change to a tor- ward pass. So oompleto was the deception In tho play that not a Lafoij-ette man within 15 yards of Kopf when ha caught the ball.

And, as I said above, our supporters stands thought Brenkart had attempted to kick and failed. i The week before we had been able to tie Georgia Tech bocaose under similar circumstances West had kicked a goal, though how be ever did It I don't know, as Tech had brought 10 mon Into the line In an effort to block his kick. Thoy should have succeeded, That Is why the forward pass alternative was conceived. "Profit by your mistakes," tho moral writers tell us. And by roer near-mistakes, I would add.

It came near being a mistake for as not to change the play when Carnegie Tech threw all its effort Into blocking that kick. We were lucky to score and know It.
