CHANCE GETS ANOTHER PITCH. FIR, WHO HAS BEEN EFFECTIVE
 AGAINST PITTsBURG.

| rates.
 At the beginning of the season
 nance gave three men for Mcintyre,
 the Brooklyn twirler, who always had
 been stumbling block for Fred l Clarke's band. Mac won the first
 game he pitched against the Pirates, and the Cub fans howled with glee.
 Later on he wasn't so effective.
 In Lou Richie the Boston Doves had
 a man, who, like Mcintyre, had been able with a weak team behind him. to
 beat the Pirates. Chance nabbed
 Richie, trading Roy Miller, an out | fielder for him. Manager Fred Lake
 of the Doves put Miller into the first
 game against the Cubs and Doc" helped to beat his former teammates 3 to 0.
 | By the way, while mentioning this game it might be added that Three | Fingered" Brown was the pitcher for | the Cubs. Brown hasn't been show. ing great form so far this season, and it was supposed to be sort of test for him. When the Doves hammered out eight hits the Chicagoans were about ready to believe that Brown may not be the great twirler this year that he has been in former seasons. On the same day St. Louis got seven hits of Watterson in one inning.
 The trade for Richie gave the Cubs | II pitchers, but of course nobody ex- pected Chance to keep all of them. It gave him some excellent material for trading purposes.
 | Ty Cobb, the spotlight hero of base | ball, has learned to smoke Behind | that statement there is story. Cobb l was reared down in Georgia, but in 1 spite of that fact he never smoked or | used tobacco in any form until last l season, and he was considered one | of the models of the game in that re- | gard One day when his batting av- craze was fading away rapidly, down | toward the 200 mark, he began to get discouraged He was hitting the | ball as hard as ever-harder, perhaps, for he was gritting his teeth and wa ding into it-but it seemed that he could not make the ball go safe He was sitting moodily around the hotel | one night, when Bill Donovan in formed him gfavely that what he needed was to smoke in order to i'm prove his batting eye. Bill produced cigar warranted to kill or main at 40 yards, and Cobb lighted it. He smoked that cigar, survived, and the next day he got three hits. That set tied it. Within month Cobb was getting his two and three day and smoking cigars as fast as he could consume them. He smokes all the time now Whether it is a coinci- dence or not, look at his batting aver age.
 Within an hour after the sale of Pitcher Fulenwider to the Columbia team of the South Atlantic league, by Chattanooga, Pitcher Victor Schlitzer of the Chattanoogas fell over bat and broke his ankle. He was warm ing up before the game and acciden- tally stepped on bat. It turned with him and he fell with his weight all centered on his right ankle, which was caught under his body. He was removed to the hospital and physi- clans say it will be three month and perhaps the entire season before he is able to play again. Schlitzer was purchased from the Boston Americans. Fulenwider will have to go to Colum- bia, although he is now wanted by Chattanooga. Osteen, Montgomery player, broke leg few days ago.
 The Carlisle Indians got so interest ed in baseball that the college author ities were forced to give up the sport. They are so keen over the game that they did not want to devote any time to studies at all. They really felt hurt when they were told that they must attend the classes. Baseball is supposed to be the great American game, so it is only natural that the great American Indian should take up with it with so much spirit Great athletes are those Indians, and the way they run the bases is a caution. Leroy, the Indian pitcher with the Red Sox, is one of the stars the col lege turned out, and Bender of the Athletics is another.
 Harry Krause, Connie Mack's sen sational southpaw, is not being worked as much as last year, with the result that he is showing even better form than then, when he won over ten consecutive games. Krause is of frail physique, and for that reason cannot be forced, but by using him about once week he is sure to win large majority of his games. Krause, like many other pitchers, has the rep utation among opposing batters or having nothing" and being only lucky" That, of course, is absurd. for his work has shown him to be a great pitcher.
