Walter EckersaI, the Chicago foot ball

Claude Ritchey, the ex-Pirate. certainly

Monday. He stole home. scoring the

The ST. Louis Nationals have given
Mike Grady his unconditional rele&>>a. It
is possible that New York will sign the
veteran backstop.
Larry Lajoie is kidding Cleveland fans
into the belief that the Blues will be
worth story in the Scientific American
this season.
Arthur Hoelskoetter of the St Louis
Cardinals gives notice tina; he wants to
be called Hostetter this season. He is
through with the name that drove the
scorers mad.
On the pace Cobb of Detroit hit in the
opening game the Cleveland club may
possibly have some regrets that it didn't
try for the youngster when he was
ported as on the market.
At St. Louis, Pickering and Charley

Cy Young is branching out as a regular
maker of episrams on how to succeed.
The other day he was asked to what he
mainly attributed his phenomenally long
career on the diamond, and he said he gave

doing the best he could in 1t.
Coach Billy Lush of the Yale nine has
again been compelled to give up coaching.
He has caught cold in the eye which was
struck with stone while he was in Wash

Washington last Saturday and visited the
Yale field on Monday.-Boston Herald.
THE trouble with college scorers" SAYS
former college player, lis that they are
too severe on hitters. They are prone to
call everything an error unless the fielder
does not get his hands the ball at all.
Why, when Phil Lewis was at Cornell he
used to stand on his head and make stops,
and though 1t was impossible to throw the
batter out Lewis would find himself
charged with error"

but was tripped up. Parent hit safely,
and Ferris intcrfered with his own ground

out by Falkenberg. and then Criger got a
life on I.ave's low shy. Criger trie for the

throwing TO second. Parent was enuced
off third and run down on this play.
This was all there was to the remaipder
OF the game. Boston failed TO See first h,
the seventh and eighth innings. The only
one of the Washingtons who saw first after
this was Anderson. in the eighth, and he
was forced by Altizer. who made a fine bid
for a hit, but Ferris made a brilliant stop.
The outfielding OF Sullivan and Unglaub
were the features OF the game in a fielding
way. ''Sully'' made a fine one-handed cap
ture off Altizer in the eighth. taking the
ball so close to the ground that he could
not maintain his equilibrium. CngIaub
