PRESIDENT TO ATTEND GAME Washington, April 14 (U.R) Vi I other baseball treason starts on Its j way today with nil the ceremony i attendant to an opening gtim<> In ' the nation’ll capital. Nothing has been overlooked hi ' an effort to give the,opening here all the eclat due an event in j which Hitch well known figures :ih ’ •■oqtdent llnovor Vice Preslden’J Curt In. Walter ,Johnson and the i comedy team of Nick Altrock and Al Schacht take prominent parts. The other 14 big league chibs aro completely out of the .picture for the day, while Walter Johnson's ■ Senators and lleinle Wagner’s Rod I Sox start the ball rolling 24 hours I in advance. The only uncertain element now . ts the weather. Washington never has been fortunate in its opening day weather and this appears to ho no exception. The weather bureau’s forecast was thundershowers. Earlv today it seemed doubtful if the 2'i.oDo or Biol e fans who planned to fill the grandstand | and bleachers at Griffith Stadium would lie able to do so. In the event the weather prevents play as it did last year, the | capital's formal opening ceremonies will be postponed until April 22. as the Senators and Red Sox ore scheduled to play in Boston tomorrow. The Yankees are slat’d to play a single game here April 20, but the formal opening would not be held then inasmuch as the date falls on Sunday, eers, as he felt somewhat better ft appeared for a while yesterday that President Hoover mieht not be all e to carry out his assignment of throwing out the first | tall. He has been suffering from I a severe cold for several days and I was confined to" the White House i throughout Sunday. However, he I planned to work this morning and to attend the game with Mrs. Hoover and several cabinet offilast night. Walter Johnson, beginning his . second season as manager of the I Senators, is presenting virtually I the same e’ub that finished in fifth I place last year. Most of the baseball prognosticators have already predicted that the team won't wind up better th in I seventh this year, but Walter b°- i lieves any- club that can win 17 out I of its 19 nre-season games is a ' 'Tst-division prospect. The Senators won their 11th straight vic-fn»-v yesterday and are banking on Fred Marberry. their best pitching bet. to keep the streak going. Wagner, making his debut ns manager of a big league club was still undecided about his starting ■litrher. but indicated he would use Tanny MacFayden. a bespectacled voting ma" from the environs of Bo ton. Charlie Ruffing, a giant r'ghthander. is another possibility. The Rod Sox perennial tailenders have several newcomes in their starting lineup, including first baseman Sweeney and outfielder Oliver. Plav is scheduled to begin at 2 o’clock. 15 minutes after the arrival of the presidential party. A play-by-play account of the game will be given in a nation-wide radio broadcast, while the ceremonies prior to the game also will be de rcribed.

The fact that Rotary is made up of various busi ness classifications simplifies this problem of entertainment. Gov. Walter J. Kohler has invited the entire group to be his guests for one day at his huge industrial plant and model workman’s village of Kohler. The governor, when the visitation project was first proposed by Dr. Williams, sent an official inviation bidding the foreigners to make Wisconsin's Capital the central laboratory for their study in international understanding. Wives of local Rotarians will have an Important part in the enterainment Although the visitors will have hotel headquarters, they will spend a part of the time in homes of their guests.
