(By The Associated Press.) Time has no terrors for Walter Johnson, pitching ace of Washington. Since the start of the present season the speed ball artist of the Senators has kept his team within striking distance of the lead in the race for the pennant. Today the Harris outfit has a game and a half lead over the Yankees. Johnson has been pitching 18 ry: years and never until the present ik \ campaign with the slightest hope cf obtzining the goal of major weiU U0 ¥ league players—a championship. Washington won the second game of the series here yesterday, 5 to 1 mainly through the pitching efforts of the mighty Johnson, who held the Yanks scoreless until a hot smash from Wally Schang’s bat landed on - his pitching hand and forced him to Rasiball Squad Will retire from the game, Marberry re- Be Segregated From ‘Varsity Eleven.
