The championship meant comparatively nt to say that the winning of this championship by Washington was the greatest thing that could have happened for base ball T knew as well as anybody else that 90 per cent of the people wanted to see Washington, and especially Wal- ter Johnson, win. The mere fact of the whole count being against us made the players fizht harder. But it was not in the cards for them to win. Game Ix Uplifted. The whole game has been uplifted. A professional sport like base ball has taken a firmer grip on the public fancy than even the great amateur sports. Our one concern is to keep the game clean, and base ball will spread into towns and villages that before this Fall never had a gular team. Those hundreds of public men Washington who went through thrills of that series will go bac their sections of the country as mis- sionaries and spread the good tid- ings. Base ball clubs will spring up everywhere. Eventually this will de- velop more ball of higher grade, who will find their way into the big leagues. That is the only source from which we can hope to keep up our clubs that are to fight for a world championship every Fall. The problem of acquiring talent for ball clubs in the future is a serious one. We have all the machinery for bringing them along after they once Become professional players, but_the fountainhead must be kept going. This serles in Washington, this popular victory, gives that fountainhead a fresh spurt. o Regrets At Loss. 1 haven't the slightest regret over having lost a championship, except for the human reasons that I have men- tioned. I know it was better for the game for Washington to have won. I did hope, though, to see the big prize | decided in different way—a mnfui scientific way. | My idea of the way that eeries should | have ended was for Walter Johnson to come up in that last inning and drive the ball into the bleachers. Can you imagine anything more perfect—a more fitting climax to the greatest drama. our game ever has known? It so happened, though, that a faulty | bound, a mere fluke, gave the Nationals their last game. As long as W had to lose it I would be overjored right now if that grand player, Johrson, had hit | the ball in the stand. We are taking to Europe with us a big photograph of the President of the United States standing in the middie of & group of the two teams, ay- TOWN AND CO in the into | bail It was a popular victory. ers and Judge Landis. Most Americans do mnot ize how that impresses a European. Never hafore has a President thus lent his wholehearted support to our national game. Others have been ardent fans. but none went to the trou- ble of having his photograph taken with the clubs and of sitting through three of those world series games. President’s Support Helps. When the President of our coun- try takes that interest and puts his stamp of approval on a national sport it will not be so difficult for us'to carry the message into Europe. Over there a pretty good sized group of Americans are establishing base ball clubs and have two or tnree leagues. We hope to give them en- couragement by taking two teams Hke the White Sox and Giants on an exhibition tour. We do not expect to make money out of the trip. This recent series gave to base ball some new characters that in time to come will vie with the great men Johnson, Gowdy, Nehf, Rice, 2 h and Ruel. In another year I hope to see young Lindstrom one of the greatest play- ers in the world. Bill Terry also will rise to heights. 1 had a note from George Whitted reminding me of what he had written a vear ago In reference to Freddie Lindstrom, then 17 years old. Tipped Off By Whitted. “I have plaved a season with this bov,” he wrote. “He has a great pair of hands, can hit hard and s fast as lightning. In two years you will have the best ball p'ayer in the world.” George's only error w is as to time.

When the pressure is applied “just as the club- head gets to the bhall” the shoulder iction is straight forward with the club rather thi idown into the ball. The player must watch out for this tlownward dip of the shoulder. It results from press- ing and exerting the musles be- -ond the capacity »f the wrist and iands, which can stand Just xo much pull from theshaft | and no more. When this pressure against wrist and hands becomes too great for their power to resixt and stand up, the right side probably will collapxe, letting the right xhoulder down, and thus the clubhead digs into the ground. Lifting the right heel from the ground too soon encourages this right shoulder collapse also. With practically all good golfers the right heel apparently is slightly oft the ground when the ball Is taken, but this does not imply that it files too looxely away from the ground the moment the forward swing starts.

Still, his home town pays no at- tention to its boy wonder. Its two league teams—one with its $100,000 Willie Kamm—never gave him a moment's thought until he began to glitter in Gotham.

October 13.—Walter Johnson's admirers are legion, but it is doubtful whether any one idolizes the Washington twirler more than Michael J. Kafer of this city. He has followed the work of the big Kansan through his entire career of 18 years in base ball, and his enthusiasm has finally burst bounds. Determined to show his apprecia- tion for the many enjoyable days when Johnson has toed the rubber, Kafer, who is a breeder of the cham- pion Archangel pigeons, will present Johnson with a pair of the finest birds from his loft. For more than 23 years Kafer has carried off the highest awards at the various bird shows throughout this country and Canada. His pigeons are recognized by all authorities as champions in their ciasses, and the pick of his 1924 brood he has primed and specially fluffed to be presented to his base ball idol. Kafer, accom- panied by Robert Clark and J. Michael Coroum, will journey to the Capital City today and personally make the presentation. The pair of Archangel pigeons which Johnson will receive are ex- quisitely marked and colored. With jet black wings, scarlet heads and bodies and rainbow crests, the birds are 1dentical. Each has perfect poise and form, and from their cafriage when they strut, both seem to be proud of the fact that they will soon be the property of base ball's great- est pitcher. SHINGTON, D.
