It was not until July of 1920 that
the big Kansan succeeded in pitch-
ing a no hit game. This was against
the Red Sea in one of the hottest
days of the season.
in 1906 Johnson performed the
feat of shutting out the Yankees in
three consecutive games. In 1910
Johnson attracted grea attention by
fanning three success e Philadel-
phia pinch hitters. Hartsei. Banner.
and Lapp. All of these were left
handed hitters. Two years later he
accomplished the feat of winning
nine games from the Chicago White
Sex. ‘
His Greatest Game.
Johnson's character as a baseball
piaysrand a man were better illus-
trated in defeat than in victory. in
1918 Johnson pitched what he con-
sidered the best game of his career.
It was against Boston. and he was
defeated in eleven innings. 1 to 0.
In that game Johnson did many re-
markable things. He allowed only
one hit in ten innings and ut three
in eleven. He pitched 96 ails dur-
ing that battle. 69 being strikes and
27 balls. He threw seventeen strikes
before a ball was called on him.
Johnson fanned ten batters in ten
innings. Only two Boston players
in that game. Clyde Eagle and Lar-
ry Gardner. got by without being
trace of ill feeling.

NEW YORK. Aug. 16.-—For the
first time in the history of the Unit-
cd States Military Academy. the ca-
det track team has been granted
permission to compete in a meet
away from home. Lieut. Eugene
Viday. who is in charge of track
athletics at. the academy. has filed
the entries of all of his stars for the
pro-Olympic games being held by
the Wilco A. A. at the Yankee Sta-
dium on September 8.
This is regarded as s. great vic~
tory for the Wilco A. A.. as the at-
tempts of the University of Penn-
sylvania relay carnival management.
and various intercollegiate associa-
tions to induce West Point to com-
pete have been unsuccessful. Two

remember seeing him fight some lad
in Stamford one night and before he
entered the ring he ate a whole pie.
During the bout his opponent let a

the ringside were showered with pie.
Bones has never cared much for pie
since that night and some of the
fans who were at the ringside feel
the same way.

l4. it is said that Tex Rickard. who
is promoting the battle. has been un-
able to get their signatures to a set
of artlrlt-g that will meet with the
apprmai of the State Athletic Com-
mission.
As far as the boxing culllmlsslou
is concerned the match is not "on."
Rickard has not made one ’ofllclrli
m0\o to clinch it. \Villinm McCor—
mack. Chairman of the License (‘o-n—
mince of the tuning commisrion.
declared after last Tuesday's mm'tini:
that neither Dempsey nor Jack
Kenrns had applied for their license
as boxer and mnnagnr. nor had lilc-
kard filed any articles of agreement
with the commission.
Rickard appeared informally at
lhst week‘s meeting and said he had
rinned agreements with Dempsey and
Flrpo and was ready to proceed. He
did not go into details before the
commission. but the inference new is
that his matchmaking has. never
progressed beyond the stage of both
men signing separate agreements.
“'hy The Delay.
The protracted stay of Jack
Kearns in the city this week and
Firpo‘s apparent indifference to the
Dempsey match indicate that all is
not well and that uncdslness prevails.
If Rickard has the men signed.
there certainly is no reason why he
should not file his articles of agree-
ment with the commission.
Even if the REAL contract did not
contain the same figures and con-
ditions there would be no need of
further delay. The Boxing Commis-
