WALTER JOHNSON RESIGNS

BASEBALL CLUB'S FAILINGS

Cleveland, O., Aug. 4. Because the Cleveland Indians have been losing with distressing regularity and the fans and sports writers have been raising a howl, they put the skids under old Walter Johnson to-night.

The great pitcher of another day who has been pilot of the Tribes- men for the last three years step- ped aside for Steve O'Neill, coach of the Indians. O'Neill will tako charge without delay as manager.

Johnson will investigate the pro- gress made by players on minor league teams in which the Indians are interested. 139

Johnson said he suggested the resignation to the owners and they accepted.

Picked by a majority of the sports writers to cop the 1935 American league pennant, the Indians have failed to click thus far this Benson and now are in 1fth pinca, not even in the first division. They lost to the Tigers to-day at Detroit, after losing both- games in yesterday's double bill.

Under such circumstances the anvil chorus is certain to be raised by the fans, and Johnsen already was being criticized by the sports writers for releasing Glenn Myatt, catcher, and Willie Kamm, earlier in the season. Myatt is now with the New York Giants.
