Jai alai is the national sport of Spain and several other Spanish speaking countries, notably Cuba, and some of the South American republies. It follows somewhat the lines of tennis and handball, or rac- quets, except that the players wear a cesta, or basket, on their throwing hand, and it partakes nf the speed of those games. A jal alal stadium is being built close by one of the most popular north side cabarets, whose proprietors are the financial lgnr.ken of the project. It is plenned to bring forty players, recruited in the Basque provinces of Spain, here for the games. Bonds will be filed witn the immigration authorities fo cover their proposed stay of six months. They will arrive about December 1. The mayor saw games on a Mississippl river trip-to New Or- leans and became an enthusiast of the sport. J. S.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31—The pass- ing of Walter Perry Johnson from | haseball's big tent after 21 v:un\ of active service with the Wash ington Senators closes a career of noteworthy achievement which promises to stand Tor some time to come. Although there is many a good game left in Johnson's sl.r.mx right arm, the “Big Train” quested his . release because he felt that it would be omly a short while before he would he forced to stand aside. He will celebrate his fortieth birthday an- niversary November 6. During his fifth of a century in baseball, Johnson won 414 games and lost 275, His biggest season was 1913 when he recorded 3§ victories against seven setbacks. “Barney” holds the recard for most pitching years in one of the big leagues, also for most games pitched and most games won in either major circuit. His Ameri- can” Leaguc career was rounded out with 3,494 strikeouts which its kind. Another mark credited to Johnson is shutouts pitchel, 113, The feat of leading the Ameri- ) can League most years in ‘games won likewise is held by Johnson. He headed the parade through six campaigns, which was equalled by wver Cleveland Alexander ‘n National. « Alexander ‘led his cireult five years with the Phillies and one season wnh the Cubs, - Johnson' tops the list for pitch- ing the greatest mumber of con- secutive shutout innings.
