Pennant fever swept Washington, DC, after the Senators took 3 games out of 4 from the Yankees at Yankee Stadium at the end of August, as George aptly described in the above post. On September 2, 1924, the team was invited to the White House by President Coolidge, and this team photo with Coolidge was taken on the grounds of the White House on this date. BTW, I will have this photo on display at this Saturday's No. Va. Net54 get together - hoping for a great turnout.
