Ign could.
Consider the case of Red corriden,
for some time this season shortstop
of the Cubs, now installed as first
pinch hitter.
Used as a regular the blazer was
not breaking any fences. His batting
average was puny thing, and need
ed careful nursing to be kept alive
at all. Red could hit the ball, all
right, but there was always some cuss
in the way to get it.
Since being Ibenched in the East
Corriden has been used three times
by O'Day as pinch hitter On those
three occasions the pincher connect
ed for a single, double and a homer
in the order named, the four-play
wallop scoring the only run off Mar
guard yesterday.
Whether Red now has the conf
dence to go back and do these hitting
stunts as a regular thing is doubtful.
For when he is used regularly he has
to play in, the ,infeld. He is not a
strong defensive player, and COM
mits fatal errors. This has an effect
on his nerves and affects his batting
average.
Let Corriden once get the hang of
the fielding end of his duty, and he
will be a star, for he bats viclously
with "a natural swing, and connects
with the ball solidly. st.,
Roger Bresnahan is in no condition
to catch. The Giants stole three
bases on him yesterday, and he also
missed a third strike which counted
in the results. The missed strike is
directly traceable to Rogers injured
thumb, and his aches and pains also
handicap him throwing out base
runners.
Sacrificing Bresnahan for the sake
of few games won't help any. 1t
would be, better to give Hargrove a
chance and let Bresnahan fully re-
cover. Then he will be of use later

The shooting of two American hun
ters by Canadian soldiers is a strik
ing illustration of the British state OF
mind. To Americans generally il
looks as though Britain and her allies
are sure to win in the long run. but
il is evident that the people of the
British empire never dreamed that
Germany would prove such a hard
nut to crack. English self esteem
has received hard blow. In spite
of English victories and progress
made by British and Colonial armies
Germany appears to be long way
from being conquered and has shown
ability all through this war to strike
fierce and unexpected blows at Great
Britain. No very serious damage has
been done except to British nerves.
which are now so on edge that il
takes not even spark to cause an
explosion. 1t seems uncomfortable
that Canadian soldiers would fire on
two men in a rowboat on neutral
river so far from the scene of war
II merely shows how completely ex-
citement and the train of sustained
effort with at least partial failure can
unnerve a people.

Gustave, Grimm of Rutland, the
leading manufacturer of evaporators
in the country died on Christmas
day. Mr., Grimm's life is an example
of what may be done by poor boy
with pluck and perseverance. He
came to this country, poor emf
grant boy without dollar and not
familiar with our language or institu-
lions. He was not afraid of hard
work and obstacles and steadily,
earnestly and honestly pushed his
way to the front Too many boys of
this generation think they must have
pull to succeed. but the real sue
cesses are made by hard work and
applied common sense.

NEW LONDON, Conn, February IT,
Nine persons. five men and four women.
are believed to have lost their lives in
today's blizzard through the founderlnS
of 4 string of four coal barges in Long
Island sound off this city. Hope that the
barges might have survived the sixty
mile gale was abandoned this afternoon.
when the tug Saiutation returned from
vain search. The barges were in tow of
the tug Pliny Fisk, from New Haven.
which put in here early today and re-
ported their loss.
The tug left New Haven yesterday with
six barges. Between Bartletts reef and
Corntieid light the four sternmost broke
away. The other two were brought safe
ly to port, and Capt. Edward Gilligan of
the Fisk went back in the tug Saluta-
tion, bigger boat. to hunt for them. The
government transport Gen. Brennan also
took up the search
Outside the harbor the navigatoTs of
the two boats found conditions too severe
even for their heavy craft. Capt Gill
gan said there was no chance that the
coal-laden barges could have Withstood
such a storm. He expressed belief that
the barses went to pieces soon after they
broke adrift and that all board per-
ished. of the nine persons on the barges
