Intellectual sorties still continue from

of the Austrian relief forces to break

was angry at Mike, and that Dug
dale Is boss.
1t Is commonly rumored in Sc
attic that Dugdale is trying to
wreck the Northwestern, league
this year, so that he can get into
the Coast league next season.
The sporting editor of the Sc
attic Star has made these charges
and has told the public just how
Dugdale was running his own
team by selling every good player
that he could get his hands on.
AS a result, the Star has been pro-
hibited from sending representa-
tives to Dug's park, and a fine
knock has been registered against
the game in that city.
Lynch has not announced what
his plans are, but he will probably
return to his apple ranch in the
Yakima valley.

CHARLES T. T.

Dear Charlie-You all's done
stahted somethin'!!
If you desire only my opinion
I'll give it to you, but you are
liable to find Just as many opin-
ions as there are persons in base
ball. And believe me, If you get
that argument started among ball
players, especially in the Ameri-
can league, there will be as many
good reasons why each should
win or lose as there are players.
My opinion is that a team of
nine Ty Cobbs would beat nine
Walter Johnsons about nine out
Of every ten games and by scores
ranging from 7 to 3 to 10 to
and perhaps the Cobbs would
score more than that.
The way l figure 1t is this:
Surprising the johnson pitch
ing opened the game. Cobb would
make him pitch as many balls as
possible, would worry and fret
and tantalize him, and perhaps
get out. Maybe he would strike
out.

STANDING OF THE CLUBS

Iron Man" Joe McGinnity
proved yesterday afternoon that
he is still very much a good ball

oldest veterans in the game.
McGinnity won his own game

given him.

pions to three hits In eight long
innings, McGinnity waited until
the Tigers had tied the score, 2

the skeptics that he could hit as

Is A S IL B ALL
BOXING
CLUB MUST GET
AT ONCE

Haste Is urgent In raising the
sum necessary to liquidate the OBJ
legation due on the Tacoma base
ball clubs grounds, and the fans
are therefore appealed to to come
to the rescue Immediately.
The club has but a compare
lively few days In which to raise
this sum. The merchandise GER
tificates accompanying each share
of stock preclude all chance of a
monetary loss through the in
vestment.
Then again there is a very good
chance of realizing something on
the stock investment, for the Ia
coma club possesses at least six
very likely ball tossers, all Of
whom promise to advance to
leagues of higher classification
next season, and this means thar
each Of them will bring stipulat-
ed sum to the cub. 1t is estimat-
ed that Tacoma has six players
who will very likely net the club
about $1,000 at the end of this
season, and the possession of
these players would surely slim
ulate some town to bid for the
Tiger franchise in the event the
local club loses its park.

Could Nine Ty Cobbs Beat Nine
Walter Johnsons? Our Opinion On IL

But imagine a pitcher wiping
away the sweat and saying, well,
l got Cobb, anyhow" and then
realizing there was another Cobb
coming to bat-and after him
seven more Cobbs? The Johnson
managing those nine Johnsons
would have to change pitchers
about once an inning to keep the
one on the slab from worrying
himself to death.
Finally one of the Cobbs would
reach first-and the chances are
he'd steal to third on the next
pitched ball.
After the Johnsons finally got
the Cobbs out in that first in
ming the Cobbs would take the
field. Ty can pitch fairly well;
in fact, has been an utter fool and
hurt his arm by monkeying with
pitching curves in practice.
Walter Johnson is a terrific,
slashing hitter. liable to bust one
mile, and undoubtedly he'd hit
Cobb's pitching. But at that he'd
have to hit them over fences to
keep the Cobbs from catching
