McGraw, manager of the Giants; Benny Kauf and Fred Toney, | members of the Giants, were expect ed to testify regarding attempts to bribe New York players. According to a published report here today, the Sox threw at least three games on the last Eastern trip. Sox players may be subpoenaed to testify reyarding this. The inside story of the alleged throwing of the 1919 world series and of games during the 1920 season will probably be sought from Ray Schalk, premier White Sox backstop, Schalk, it was sald, was the firat to notice something wrong. His sig: nals, according to réport, were crossed by Eddie Cicotte and Claude Williams, Chicago pitchers, who have confersed they accepted bribes to throw games, SPEAKER the curious with a curt “It all depends.” F. is known to have a lean- up and down Broadway on the big battle.

Montana is the first of these “un- known” opponents that the varsity their big game, Montana will use every ounce of reserve energy to down the Purple and Gold when they meet October 13. The scrappy bunch from Corval Us, Oregon, are the next to furnish opposition for Washington. The Aggies have always given Washing- ton plenty of trouble, and have nev- er lost by any big score. The farmers have a bevy of exservice men back, who have earned their letters in the grid sport before the war, and will present one of the strongest line-ups in the history of the school. The powerful Stanford aggresa tion is next on the list of “un knowns.” Judging from Stanford's games against California and the other big schools of the Coast, Washington ts in for one of the biggest battles in the history of University of Washington football. DARTMOUTH NEXT Next comes the team from over, New Hampshire, Anyl that thinks the Dartmouth football team is traveling all the way across the continent to get beaten is sadly mistaken. If the University of Washington team wins from Dart mouth it will be one of the greatest achievements ever made by any football team on the Pacific Coast In the meantime, Washington is mapping out a defensive and offens- ive system of their own, which is sure to give the opposition pienty of trouble. The offenstve, especially, t# some- thing new, and besides being spec- tacular, looks like it will enable consistent ground-gaining. The Whitman and University of Oregon teams, because they met Washington last year, are not the least of the worrles of the coaches The varsity is out to avenge the stinging defeat that they recetved from Oregon last year on Denny feld.
