Just how much the expert dope
counts for is illustrated in the way
Claude Hendrix pitched to the st.
Louis Cardinals yesterday. It had
been opined that Claude would be a
very doubtful quantity on his next
start because of a long lay-off.
Claude is one of the so-caIled iron
men, who thrives on diligent employ
ment.
Not having pitched in more than a
week, he could only hold the Cards
to two singles, and his control was
excellent, not a man being passed.
Seven whitfield. With Hendrix ap-
parently back in his 1914 form and
Mcconnell, Seaton, Vaughn and
Packard pitching air-tight ball, there
is lots of reason for optimism among
followers of the North Side team.
Seven straight wins has put the
club in a tie for first place with the
Phillies, and three more games
against the Cards should result in a
couple of additional victories. This
is the first time the Cubs have COPIED
seven straight since 1913.

bined their wallOps for a mess of
runs then have taken things easy for
the remainder of the pastime. Yes
terday the uprising yielded four runs
in the sixth.
Cy Williams is about as valuable
right now as any man on the Cub
team. His hitting has been frequent
and timely and he is getting more
passes to first base than any other
athlete. In addition to this attacking
strength, Cy is doing better outfeld-
ing than ever before. He has learned
something about the batters in the
National league and knows where to
play for them. This in addition to
his lOng-legged ability to cover
ground makes him a fine man on de-
Tense.
Zimmerman has completely re-
Vamped his manner of batting and
no longer aims his blows for left
field. Out on the West Side a ball hit
over short with proper speed would
roll considerable distance and yield
at least three bases. On the North
Side such a wallop is not good for
more than two.
Therefore Zim is firing at the right
field wall. A bingle there is always
good for two bases and the way the
balls bounce off the barrier frequent
Iy- gives an extra sack. Also, a little
loft on the pill and it goes over the
wall for a homer. So far Tim has
not achieved the latter, but he has
rolled up a number of doubles and
triples. Two of his smashes yesteT-
day were doubles and one was a sim
gle.
Lefty Williams, Sox pitcher, has
our thanks. He has made good one
of our expert predictions about the
only one that has gone over for a
month. However, that is about as
often as the rest Of the experts"
hit it.
