BASEBALL’S TROJAN WAR IS OVER Johnson Slays the Giants! WASHINGTON.— Baseball's Tro.ian war is over and Wasli nigton, capital city of the allies, celebrated far into the night the return of the fair Helen, carried captive to New York and held there throughout four years. Aimless, spontaneous, contented, joyous, even beautiful, was the service of thanksgiving which the city, in the greatest de monstration since the signing of the armistice, rendered to its heroes and its Gods. , For Washington believes in its Gods, is certain that on the pointed peak of the monument rest Olympian dieties that, watched and waited and tested and tantalized their votaries during the trying days of the series and then at the end con ferred and said: "These our people are deserving, and we will reward them.’’ It was to humble them, these fans will sav, that Walter Johnson twice was humbled; then, from the ashes of their chas tity, they raised up their eyes to see him come with aflaming sword of vengeance—their Walter with ids fast ball, his cour age and invincibility. AND ACHILLES ■ COMES dACK! Washington will say (hat. or any part of it, or more than that Sa- I turday, while the aromatic spirit of delirium still encircles its brain. | And, Achilles, seemingly slain by i the giant twice, did come back and | come back from nowhere, came al . most unwelcomed but came to vlc | tory which had been lacking with out his touch, victory incomplete except that h e led it, and Wash ington believes in its gods, certain that none but gods could conceive, create and produce such a drama of events as brought the world's championship to Washington and Walter after 12 innings of the seventh game by a score of 4 to 3. As the allied Greeks entered Troy by strategy, so did "Bucky” Harris penetrate the defense of the Giants, the youngest manager in the big leagues threw down the gauntlet of chicancery to theo idest, John J. McGraw, known as the "little Napoleon" and the “master mind” with strategy the battle was fought and because of it, not only became the greatest contest in the history of the sport but possibly elevated the game itself to a new level. PRESIDENT WAS IN FOREGROUND It was fought with the President. lof the country and many of the nation’s prominent men in the fore ground; the background was a mass of villages and cities con nected with Griffith Stadium by radio and telegraph wire. When “Bucky” Harris started Ogden, a comparative unknown as a twirler, then took him from the box and after he had pitched to two men the people In Plttstown, Pa., were certain that their home town boy had “put one over” on the master mind by forcing Mc- Graw to start his lefthanded bat tors and then either to use them against Mogridge, a southpaw, or by taking them from the line up, to eliminate them from use as pinch hitters, or as batters against right handed Marberry, if the latter re lieved Mogridge. Out in Circleville, Kansas, they knew that young Virgil Barnes was pitching a great game; that a home run by Harris in the fourth inning had nrtt only been the only hit allowed by their boy in six innings but that the young Washington manager was the only man who hud reached first base in that time. in South Bend, Ind., and Bclleair, Ohio, and San Diego, Cal., they knew all, this and more, and in Washington at Griffith stadium, they appreciated several fine stops made by Bluege, playing at short stop in place of the injured Peck inpaugh; they saw a marvelous catch by Hack Wilson who dived into a low line drive and then skid ded forward on his stomach with his hands upraised, they sensed suspense in every play, thrilled with the high tension apparent on the field. They x They watched Mo gridge now down the invaders. THE SIMTH NEARLY FINISHED SENATORS Then, In the sixth they saw the Senators crack wide open while the alert Giants drove three runs through the breach. Young walked, and Kelly sitgled, Hending Young to third. Harris sent Mogridge out and brought in Mar berry. the relief pitcher who had already saved two games. Meusel scored Young with a sacrifice fly. Then came the lapse. Wilson sent a slow thing over second which cither Harris or Bluege, might have knocked down. It seemed. Kelly went to third and scored when Judge muffed Jackson’s tap. Gowdy drove one through Bluege's legs and Wilson tallied. Barnes went on with his same steady pace. The “series seemed in the hag” for the Giants. When Bluege fouled out in the eighth their shrill cries of triumph sounded high above the crowd buzzling. When the gods sprinkled their magic on the field, mostly just In front of third base. Leibold went In to hit for Tay lor and drove a two base, clout beyond Lindstrom. Ttuel made his first safety of the series and Tate, batting for barberry, was passed, filling the sacks. Me Neely flew to Wilson. Harris a child of destiny, of there was ever one In baseball, hit towards Lindstrom. The hall bounced over the head of the won der boy and Washington had tied the score. The fans here celebrat ed In their copyrighted fashion. Around the radio and tsie telegraph circuits there was scenes, doubt less. WALTER JOHNSON TO THE RECUE! The gods must have chuckled when they tossed Walter Johnson THE ONE PAPER IN MOST HOMES— THE ONLY PAPER IN MANY HOMES, into the fray then. Walter, with another chance. The batter of all the Giant swas Lindstrom, the de moniac youngster who had relent lessly driven the veteran to seeming oblivion with four lilts at the Polo Grounds. Walter made him pop out. People were proud of Walter; hopeful that he might still emerge as the hero of the series. Frisch hit a triple to deep center. People were sorry for Walter—sorry that it was going to happen again. But it did not. Johnson delibera tely passed Young and struck out George Kelly, premier Giant slug gerVvith murder in hit bat, on three pitched balls. In the next inning he struck out Jackson. In the eleventh Heinie Groli, making his first appearance in the series, sin gled. Southworth ran for him and went to second on Dindstrom's sacrifice. Again Johnson delibera tely passed Young and again whif fed Kelly. The gods were pulling the strings for Walter who worked like one of them in the box. The battle of wits had gone on. Nehf went In for Barnes after Harris drove in the tying runs in the eighth. In the ninth Mc- Quillan replaced Nehf after an er ror by Jackson gavo the Senators a chance. McGraw was not only shifting pitchers'to meet individual batters but had Young and Meusel exchange places In the outfielr so Young could follow the sun. In the 12th Bentley was in the box. With one down. Ruel. the Washing ton batting “bust” exploded in the Giants, face with a two bagger. Johnson went to first on Jackson’s erro. McNcely bounced a ball at Lindstrom. Then the gods decided to end it; McNeely’s ball took the same mira culous bounco as did Harris’ almost in the same place, and Bucl scored the winning run. Meusel made no attempt to catch him at the plate. Then Washington went wild.

SAN DIEGO, Cal.—An air trip to Huwnil may be tho next teat for the great naval dirigible Shenandoah, ac cording to Hear Admiral Moffett, head of the bureau of naval aeronau tics, who arrived here Friday night on the Shenandoah when she com pleted her successful trip across the cont inept. Sweeping over Point Lonia at 10:4." o’clock Friday night the Shenandoah completed its westward flight fit 11:40 o’clock when Commander Zachary Dansdowne brought his Giant com mand to a mooring mast on tlie land* Ing field at North Island. The dirigible Is scheduled to leave on its northward cruise along the Pacific coast for Camp Lewis Satur day. The Shenandoah made tlie last 100 nillo/ of Its journey at a speed of more than a mile a minute after the battle with hail and snow storms and headwinds in the San Jacinto mountains during tho evening hotfrs. SHIT GREETED AT SAN DIEGO. More than two hundred civilians were on the field to greet the Shen andoah despite the lateness of the hour and the briaknts.* of tho weath er. The silver envelope appeared over Point Loma nr 10:45 and the Shenandoah came into view flying nt an altitude of 2,<*00 feet. ► Heading directly over Iho mooring mast off North island the Shenan doah's signal lights flashed and the mooring crew spelled out the ques tion: “Are you ready." The answer “ready" of the mooring crew was flashed back The Shen andoah Hum circled and headed sea ward to lose Its 2.000 foot altitude. Heturnlng to North Island Com mander LansdoWne swept the COO foot cruiser to earth and landing crew of the blue Jackets leaped* to grasp tho mooring lines. Admiral Moffcet was the first to jump out of the Shenandoah's cabins and lie was followed by Commander I.ansdowno and the crow of the dirig ible. Smoke hungry after their trip they cargerly accepted tobacco and soon a regular smokefest was in ses sion. The .'I.OOO-mile jaunt across the country was forgotten as the men puffed away at their pipes, cigars or cigarettes. Flashes lit up the scene as Ilio photographers set off their flashlights to get In pictures tho history of the event. Puffing on his venerable corn cob, Admiral Moffett explained to news papermen that the arrival of the Shenandoah had been purposely de layed because a landing lato nt. night would conserve the helium supply In the ship. For this reason the Shen andoah was headed northwest after Yuma was reached Instead of holding straight yvest, n. course that would have brought the Shenandoah here before dark. Referring to the proposed Honolulu trip. Admiral Moffett said the Shen andoah might be brought to the Pa cific coast thia winter for the navy maneuvers ana after that might he taken to Honolulu. He added that In Ills Judgment the Shenandoah would make such a trip more easily than It had the trans-continental cruise and that some difficulty was encountered when the dirigible was crossing the mountains. No such trouble, he said, would be met with a run over tin water. Commander T.ansdowne Hald that If possible 11ir Shenandoah would de part for the north between It a. ni. and noon but that the time of de parture would depend on the condi tion of the motors, two of Which were in need of overhauling.

J., the start of which had been announced feir Saturday morning sud denly was postponed at the last minute until 6 o’clock Sunday morning. t SHIP LOADED TOO HEAVILY ‘While no formal stafoniont. was forihcomilip from tho mannsrcifient Of the Zeppelin works where the great dirigible was built for the United fitates navy, it was apparent Hint Dr. Hugo Eckener, director of Hie works and commander of the ship bail discovered that Hie ZTt-.’i Has loaded with more weight than it could carry comfortably. Ur. Eckener claimed that the at mospheric lifting power this morn ing was such that a successful atart was precluded anil ho Immediately afterward ordered quantities of gasoline and ballnsyJettisoned. Even taking ouytT ton and a half of gasoline, however, failed to lighten the ship enough so she would float as site should, and Dr. Eckener explained that the rising temperature was hindering the diri gible's lifting power. Ah every ounce of gasoline may be required to propel the vessel In event of ri jgh weather he deemed It best to postpone the hop oft rather than further redure his fuel supply which was the dirigible stood Its hanger this morning weighed about ft 1 tons. Dr. Ecke ner is hoping for cooler weather and consequently more huoyanev when ho emlenvors to take off Hu inlay. POSTPONEMENT IF A DISAPPOINTMENT The postponement was s disap pointment to thousands of carle 'risers who http besieged the hanger slilce darkness, confident that the start, would he made at 7.30 o'clock as annuonced Friday night. Tho'official parting ceremonies were under way and the local band had struck up their last fnrewells when Dr. Kekcner made known Ills decision. Ths commander’s intention of fol lowing the southern route on the flight, adds to the length of the voyage, liut unless he is assured »f more asupieloUH atmospheric con ditions over the onrlhern lene he will point the nose of the ZR-3 first toward Ihr. hav of lJlscav. thence flying over Northern Spain, the Azores and Bermuda.

A. observer for the army. MAY REACH COAST NEAR CHARLESTON As the cool, weather gives tho air ship more lifting power. Dr. Kckcner explained eqfforts proba bly will he made to get away by 6 a. m. before the temperature begins to rise with the sun. It is estimat ed that tho rise of each degree the ship's lifting powr Is reduced ap proximately 600 pounds. Conse quently the dirigible Haturdny will he stripped of. all excess weight, including some of the American's baggage. In the event the southern routs Is followed it Is likely that tho di rigible will reach the coast region of the United States near Charleston, S. Instead of New York. In that event Washington may get a peep at tho airship prior to the mooring at Lakehurst. THE WEEK’S WEATHER WASHINGTON.
