JOHNSON'S RECORD BR0KENBY BOSTON Great Washington Star Losing Heart-Breaking Game of 11 Innings. (National News Association) BOSTON, Mass., Aug. 29. Walter Johnson's second attempt of the present season to set up a new pitchers' record for successive victories failed yesterday when Boston won an elevenInning contest from Washington, 1 to . For ten innings Johnston had disposed of Boston batsmen in a proceseion that was. monotonous except for the interest which his performance developed. Only in the second ining was the one-two-three order of Boston's going out interrupted, this by Yerkes' hit over short, until the eleventh inning. Then Yerkes slammed the second hit off Johnson into center field, Milan fumbled, Moeller got In the way of his recovery and Yerkes was safe at third. Wagner's infield hit resulted in Yerkes being put out on the way to home, but not until Wagner had reached ' second. Manager Carrigan was at brt. John had sped over three balls for a count of two strikes, one ball, when Cacrlgan met the fourth squarely for a clean hit between left and center, and Wagner raced home, and Walter Johnson's wining Btreak had been stopped. Up to yesterday the American league's leading pitcher had twirled Washington to fourteen victories without defeat, beginning on June 27, when Washington shut out Philadelphia, 2 to 0. This stands as the American league record for this season, but is two games short of the mark set last season by Johnson and Wood, the latter of Boston. Yesterday's game was a remarkable exhibition of Johnson's pitching skill. In the eleven innings only thirty-five men faced him, and but four of these reached base. Only one got to first in the first nine innings. Ten Boston Batsmen struck out, and Johnson, working like a machine, did not allow a base on balls. Collins pitched well and was particularly effective when Washington had men on bases. The Senators pushed men to third base in three innings, but each time Collins held them without scoring: Score by innings and summary:

ALL LONG SOUGHT REALLY NEEDS IS DRIVER, HE SAYS The other day an old race horse man now past the seventies, met Mayor Zimmerman on the street, and was taken in an automobile for an inspection of "Doc's" Long Saught, the 2:17 pacer, which is making the circuit oi small Indiana county fairs. The veteran horseman closely inspected the big-boned animal, and asked questions until he knew Long Sought's entire history. He then watched the mayor send him around the track for a couple of miles. He watched carefuly the way in which Mayor Zimmerman handled the animal. After he had eviewed the outfit for several minutes, he called the mayor in and said: "Ooc, 1 believe you could make something out of that horse If you would put a driver behind him.- . . -

C.'s are considered one of the best semi-professional teams in the state and this season have been playing exceptionally good ball. They are fast in the field work and the team as a whole is reputed to be a good batting aggregation.

C.s Turner, first base; Selden, shortstop; Haniibal, right field; Allen .third base; Davis, left field; Briscoe, center field; Dupuis, second base; Watts, catch; Jeffries and Griffith pitch and west utility.

Collins of I the Red Sox and Johnson pitched a j gruelling battle for eleven innings. i ne urooKiyn uoagers maue nve double plays in the game with the Boston Nationals, which is close to the season's record. Second Baseman Cutshaw took thirteen chances. Manager Connie Mack of the Athletics, says his team is now stronger i than it was two years ago, and pre- ' diets that the Quakers will have no trouble in drubbing the Giants in the world's series. The tussle between Ray Collins and Walter Johnson in Boston yesterday, was the second notable battel of the season between these two pitchers. On July 3, in Boston, the two locked horns in a terrific encounter, and as was the the case yesterday, Collins won. Sherwood Magee, the hard-hitting ' left fielder of the Phillies, alone beat the Giants yesterday. Magee made i two doubles and a home run, and in ! addition made a sensational catch. I There were only four games played I in the big leagues yesterday, two in the National and two in the American.

They are already i There was plenty of activity among

formulating plans to have a favorable racing bill passed by the next Indiana legislature that will enable them to give high-class racing under the PariMutuel form of betting. The unexpected shut down, due to the Governor's drastic policy was I wholly unexpected. It was generally held that the sending of the troops was a remote contineencv and the frequent rumors of such a possibility were always discredited. The meeting which just terminated could be termed successful in every! particular while it lasted. Unlike former attempts by the management, this meeting enjoyed the confidence of the public and was conducted in a business like and systematic manner. The officials were vigilant and had frequently sent possible offenders away form the grounds in a quiet and unobtrusive manner. Purse money was paid at the wire and none of the horsemen or jockeys liave grievances on this score, at this session. Every indication pointed that the sport had taken root and would be a permanent fixture. With this in view the backers of the project were beginning to plan SPORTING NOTES PROVIDENCE R.

Navy officials today took steps intended to have the army team cancel its scheduled game on November 29 with the Carlisle Indians, and play the Navy football squad instead. The action of the army officials in scheduling a game with the Indians on the day set for the classic army-navy game, following the deadlock over the field where the army-navy game should be played, has come as a shock to the navy officials. The navy today, it was said, urged upon its athletic board, to concede to the arms demands that the annual game be played on the Polo Grounds,' New York, feeling certain that if this concession is not made nothing will induce the army to cancel its game with Carlisle. The navy board wanted the game played this year in Franklin Field, Philadelphia, as in previous years. The army claimed the field was too small to accommodate the crowd that wanted to attend! NEW YORK, Aug. 29 Alfred Brown, commander of the Flushing Bay division of the American Life Saving society, today is being showered with congratulations for having accomplished what a hundred other men have failed to do the 25-mile swim from Battery Park to Sandy Hook.
