In speaking of the possibility OF
Lefty Russeli's joining the hold-out
league Connie Mack recently said:
Il am not worrying about Russell.
IT he cares 10 sign a contract and join
us I viii forget everything that has
gone before. He pitched only one
game for us. and all last year was
useless, but / am still inclined to give
him every chance to come to the front
and show what he can do. He has
his contract and can sign it or return
1t or keep it, as. he likes; 1t makes no
difference to me- Russell evidently
saw the writing on the wall, as he
signed his contract yesterday.

Tommy Corcorarl, the veteran ball player, has been appointed an umpire in the Connecticut League by Presi- dent OsFourke, He was assigned to work in 15olyole today where the Me- chanics clash with Dan OrNeirs men. Corcoran succeeds Wagner, who did not give satisfaction. President O,Rourlxe didn't think Wagner dis played enough firmness in dealing with players.
 Corcoran is a resident of New Ha- ven and has gained considerable ex- perience as an umpire by officiating In games at Lighthouse Point. He is a. brother of Phil. Corcoran, the for mer New Haven twirler. Tommy played shortstop for many years on the Cincinnati team and was also with the Giants at one time. President OeRourlxe thinks Corcoran will make good. -

While Cleveland made a very poor start this season the success of the club recently has. made Nap admir- CTS confident once more. that they have a. good team.

 There have been some queer kinks in the Yankee camp. Ford and Cald- we'll, who were expected to amass long string of victories have not yet delivered, while Quinn and Vaughn both of whom were at times scheduled for the minors: have won most of the games for the Highlanders.

 T may draw suspension. I hope not, for think Detroit will get gO- ing right up with the leaders, but if I do cannot help it. You never saw one of that type go down to the field to attack a player.
