Fielder Jones Taught
Dave Davenport Control

New York. Dec. 5.-Dave Davenport,
of the st. Louis Feds, ranks today as
one of the greatest pitchers the game
ever produced. And Davenports star
is still ascending.
You haven't heard much about him
in a general way. because when he
was with the Cincinnati Reds he was
so Wild that he was just mediocre.
and since his jump to the Gilmore cir
cult his achievements seem to have
escaped countrywide attention.
Davenport is six feet six inches tall
He weighs about 30 pounds and has an
arm like a steel rod. a hand that SIM
ply smothers the ball, and a physique
that would enable him to pitch every
other day in the season, if necessary.
Davenport broke into the majors q
few years ago through the Cincinnati
Reds route. He showed binding speed
from the start, and he had a dazzling
assortment of curves. But he was shy
on control When he let go of the ball
no one knew just where 1t was going
to land.
IF Davenport ever learns control he'll
be a pitching wonder" declared the Gin
cinnati critics. And then Davenport
jumped to the St Louis Feds and into
the waiting arms of Fielder Jones, one
Of the greatest developers of pitchers in
the country.
Jones labored long and patiently with
Davenport in an effort to curb that wild
streak. When Davenport started of this
season he had better than fair control
but he wasn't perfect. Jones kept coach
ing him throughout the season. and when
the latter part of August came around,
Jones figured that his services as a teach
er no longer were necessary.
II guess Davenport is ready to show
he boys some real pitching" said Jones.
He can handle the ball now"
On September Davenport pitted his

COUGHS AND COLDS.

For a cold in the chest vaseline and
red pepper Is a good home remedy and
makes q capital counter irritant. The
chest Is first bathed in water as hot as
can be borne to thoroughly open the
pores. the pepper and vaseline are then
mixed and well rubbed in. after which
the parts are covered with a layer Of cot
ton or flannel.
Another home remedy consists of tur-
pentine and linseed oil (for external use).
II It is unwise to neglect a cold in the
head, II is even more so to treat a cough
cavalierly Repeated coughs and colds
break down ones vitality SO that the re-
operative force Of the system Is tremen-
dously lowered. the power of the body
to resist the invasion OF microbes that
abound everywhere becomes SO feeble
that the tissues afford suitable place
for their growth and rapid multiplica-
ton. What follows? Pneumonia and.
unfortunately, very often-tuberculosis.
Take time by the forelock. then. and
treat a cough the moment 1t appears.
Here is a cough cure that can be made
at home, and which is a physician s
formula as we'll: Molasses. one pound:
vinegar. one teacupful; gum arabic. two
ounces; hoarhound. one ounce: licorfce,
one ounce.
The licorice and gum arabic are dis
solved in a little water first, the hoar-
hound Is boiled thoroughly in quart OF
water and then strained with the molas-
ses; boil this with the other ingredients,
adding the vinegar when the mixture Is
well cooled.
The dose is a teaspoonful every two
or three hours. 1t soothes the mucous
membrane Of the respiratory tract and
allays the congestion. Bathing the chest
and back with cold salt water for ten or
fifteen minutes, rubbing briskly after
ward with a Turkish towel, deep breath
ing exercises In the open air. are all
powerful aiGs in combating q cough and
restoring tone to the whole system.
Hoarseness and sore throat may also
be forerunners OF more serious condi-
tions Persistent loss of the voice should
be a warning. as It is usually one of the
first symptoms of tuberculosis OF the

SIX BIG LEAGUE CLUBS
ARE SEEKING LEGORE

New York. Dec. 5.-Harry LeGore, ex-
communicated Yale footballer. Is kept
quite busy these days avoiding big
league scouts who want him to affix his
John Henry to a contract in which he
can name his own figures
LeGore is a wonderful football plsver
but he shines Just as brilliantly on the
diamond. He Is a shortstop and one of
the best that ever played on a college
team. LeGore Is a sensational fielder.
WONDERFUL thrower. a whirlwind on
the bases and a terrific hitter.
AT least six clubs already have made
an oner but LeGore has turned a deaf
ear to their pleadings. He wants to fin
fsh up his studies at Yale before he de-
cides as to his future.

club-and held them hitless On the 10th
he allowed Newark only two hits; on
the 17th he yielded but two against Brook
lyn. and on the % Baltimore secured
only three hits on his delivery and two
days later Davenport let Buffalo down
with three hits.
One no-hit game. two two-hit games
and two three-hit games in one month
that's Davenport's record. Adding to the
glory Of Davenport's 1915 work Is the fact
that on July 81 he allowed Buffalo only
one hit. shutting them out. and on April
Is he allowed Chicago only three hits.
During the season Davenport pitched
nine shut-out games In the forty full
games in which he participated. In ad-
dition to those forty games he acted as
relief pitcher in fifteen others, working
in ffty-five games altogether. In one Of
the relief games he went in In the third
inning and allowed only one hit during
the remainins six Innings In nm other
relief games in which he worked an av.
erage of four innings he did not allow
q hit
Davenport's record for the season
shows fifty-ive games participated in.
twenty-five won and eighteen lost for an
average Of $50.
Davenport is a hard luck" pitcher The
breaks never favor him. He never can
count on luck as a factor in bringing
him victory. II he wins 1t is by sheer
pitching power alone. Almost one-bnlf Of
Davenport's defeats last year were by
one-run margins. At least three times he
held the opposition to one run throughout
the nine innings, only to lose because his
team failed to score
A considerable pitcher is Davenport.

spoonful Of each Is added to a pint OF
water which is placed in a Group kettle,
or any kettle with a long spout. The

breathed into the throat. Repeat this
every few hours. This is also excellent
treatment for croupy conditions.
