WASHINGTON, Oct. 9 . - ( l T. P .) -T h e skies oponed
here early thia morning, and for five hours, the rain
poured down in torrents, causing the postponement of
Hie third game of the 1925 blue ribbon claasie of base
ball, and leaving the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Wash
ington Senators locked in a tic- with one game apiece to
their credit.
It was believed for a time that if the rain cleared off
before noon, it would be possible to stage the game, bo«
at twelve o ’clock the umpires vieWed the sea of
which had once been the baseball diamond at Qriffith
Field, and decided that even should the rain cease and
the sun shine, the field would not he dry enough by two
o ’clock to start the game. It was then decided to call
the game off.

It is felt that the postponement will be a boon to the
Senators, with their veteran pitching staff needing all th«
rest it can get. Several of the baseball experts assembled
here believe that Manager Bucky Harris of the Senators
will send the veteran Walter Johnson to the mound to
morrow, in the hoi>es that his ace will again stop the
Pirates- as lie did in the first game, and once more put
the worlds champions in the lead in the series.
In the opening game Wednes
day, “Old Barney'* pitched a
masterful game. and. although
he Is a veteran of 20 eMgsas,
and needs plenty of rest between
games, he declares he is feeling
fit. and will be ready tomorrow
