Cox Claims to be
Best First Baseman

& limbo Cox says he has a griev-
ance for being classed as first base
man in the averages for the first half
of the season. Cox is good first
baseman, nobody doubts that, and he
is also a good third sacker. Until
he came back TO the fold of the In
dams ne was playing third base.
and it was unfair to compare his
record with the records of other first
basemen. Iimbos fielding is 924,
and when compared with the first
basemen makes him show up in last
position. However, when compared
with the third sackers he ranks sec
ond. He is surpassed only by Hip
pert who played in only few games
Cox is the real leader of the third
basemen in fielding. Paducah News

The following from a recent issue
of the Vincennes Sun is reprinted to
show how big lie can some times
be written:
LAS predicted in Wednesdays Sun
the cairo Bulletin comes out Under
Earring headlines and tells of the de-
feat of the Rat aggregation Tuesday
in the words, Umpire Pierce's De-
cisions Are Amusing Features of the
Game Here Timothy Flood was
fined $40 in the game, and he retail
ated by fling protest with the
official scorer against counting the
game, wlicn will stand about as long
as ice did on last July 4th. When
Flood and the Rats get the idea out
OF their heads that they are running
, the Kitty League, and can have q
new umpire every time one crosses
! them or fines Flood for his BULLDOG
ing, they will be in better graces
with the league. Cairo begged to get
into the league this season. and ever

| in the league
The Bulletin, the mouthpiece OF
Flood, makes the following state
ment:
Manager Tim Flood last night
fled with Scorer John Watkins {
protest of the game. Mr.. Flood ha'
several grounds for this protest
First of all, the many violations
of the rules and mistakes of Umpir'
Pierce Another is the fact tina
the ClarksvilIe club is carrying NOR
than twelve men on the team. An
other is the fact that one of the visit
ing players took seat and mingle,
with the spectators in the grandstan'
"All these are in strict violation o
