manager of the Boston Browns, "as a

proof of that: Tho weekly batting

other teams. often five or six men on
a single team will have practically
identical rccords-all in knot around
.290 or 800. or all Jumped round .2i9
or .220. Then. when the streak Of good
or bad hitting is over, they'll begin o.
separate. and in two WceKs their Az
crages will be distributed all up and

MAPS PROVIDE
HARD PROBLEM
Team Well Fortified With Hitters
and Pitchers But Weak

Baseball often presents problems
that are hard to solve. Then, again,
once in while there are eruptions
that defy analysis; there are puzzles
that seem To stand in silent scorn
when attacked by theorists and that
stin besct us when the cold. CALCULATING
forces have been spent.
Right now the Cleveland American
league club forms such a problem.
Apparently the Cleveland club has
been wrecked. But the Federals can
not he blamed entirely for the debris
that Filters Cuyahogas shores. The
Federal league took but one mana
pitcher my name. Falkenberg. Falken-
borg. even though booming along at
top speed, could not have turned more
than six games into the won column"
of the Maps, and this would not have
made material difference in tho
standing Of the team.
The thing that puzzles and the prob-
lem that seemingly defies attack is
Why should a team with players like
Jackson. Lajoie, Graney. Leibold, Tur-
uer ana Johnston. with pitchers like
Gregg and Mitchell and Hagerman and
crack catcher like O'Neil he i'm the
last place in the American league race
Cleveland has the material for fir st
division club. The strength of Il PEN
nant winner is not contained in the
team, but it certainly has players
whose capabilities are well known and
whose desires should he pointed to-
wards victory.
Cleveland did not have Hagcrman
last year. yet this young right -handcg
has been winning in fancicr style than
any other pitcher with the club. IL
has worked hard and he has turned
games to Cleveland's credit. Mitchell
has not been success this season,
even though. in 1913. he was rated rs
On" of the best left-handers in the
American league. GREGG has not been
worked to any great extent.
But even though display ing an abb
senCc Of strength in tho pitching de-
partment the Maps should have n saw
age attack. And this attack should
overcome some OF the defensive de-
tccty.
Lcibold, Jackson. Lajoio and Graney
are al exceptionally good hitters. They
form quartet that is hard to boat
when It comes TO cutting away at the
hall

DROPPED FROM ROSTER
Lead Spanish Veteran Made False
Representation.

Lead, July 2O.-The proceedings
of a courtmartial, recently conducted
by Seth Bullock camp No. /, United
States Spanish War Veterans, have
just been made public. In connec-
ton with the dishonorable discharge
from that organization of George ID.
Mcclellan of Lead, the report shows
that he has had a rather spectacular
career. He received his discharge
from the army at Fort Meade in 1905
and came to Lead, where he exhibit
ed an aptitude for public speaking
and soon became a leader among the
union labor forces. He is said to
have strongly advocated a strike
when the union was attempting to
unioniZe the Homestake mine, but
when that company declared a ban on
the union he was one of the first to
sign up with the company on z non
union contract. During this time he
had become prominent among the
Spanish War Veterans and was elect
ed commander of the local camp,
later being appointed district depart
ment commander for the state. He
claimed to have served in the Philip
pines, with an Anaconda, Mont,
company.
Several weeks ago there came to
Lead a man from Anaconda, a Span
ish war veteran. He attended a
meeting of the local camp, but failed
to recognize Mcclellan as a member
of his company. This raised a sus-
picion regarding the genuinness of
McClellan's alleged war record and
the roster of the Anaconda company
was sent for. McClellan's name did
not appear there, but he explained ii
by saying that he had enlisted under
the name of McCullom, being at that
time under age. Subsequently, il
was found that the real McCullom is
still living in Anaconda, and a re-
quest on the war department al
Washington brought the information
that Mcclellan had served any
place but at Fort Meade. An indorse.
ment on his discharge from For
Meade, stating that he had served
seventeen months in the Philippines
as a member of the Anaconda com
pany, is declared by members of Sell
Bullock camp to have been a forgery
Mcclellan still contends that he will
be able to prove that his record Il
straight.
