SAW THE WARSPITE
Japanese Naval Man Reports Inspect ing Battleship Germans Claim to Have Destroyed in Jutland Battle.

New York, July 10.-Commander Nobumasa Suetsugu of the Japanese navy arrived yesterday from London on the American liner Philadelphia on his way back to Japan with the data of the North Sea naval battle to place before his government. He was not a witness to the fight off Jutland, but saw the British warships when they returned to their home ports.
 T visited the warships Tiger, Lion, New Zealand, Princess Royal, and Warspite," the commander said, and examined the damage which had been done to them by the German shells The Warspite had suffered most, but was not damaged as much as I had been led to believe. I did not see the Marlborough
 When asked for his opinion on the craftsmanship of the two fleets, Con- mander Suetsugu replied: ''The Ger man ships shot very well, and the British ships were also good"
 He is the first naval officer to arrive in the United States with f1rst-hand evidence that the Warspite was not sunk, which has been the claim made by the German admiralty. The com- nlander, who has been attached to the embassy in London as special naval attache, will leave for Yokohama via

Concerning the Yankees.

The Red Sox proved last season that fine pitching plus a strong field ing defence were enough to beat out rugged attack, even one that was led by Cobb, Crawford and Veach, all tearing the cover off the ball. Bill Donovan's Yakees are offering about the same proof this season. They are not leading the league on attack by several notches, but they are get ting the best pitching in the game and back of this superb pitching both infeld and outf1eld are helping to roll back any rival attack. At the start of the season the Yankees, via the dope were awarded fourth place we'll back of the Tigers, White Sox and Red Sox. Today they are the most feared and the most formidable club in the league, despite harder luck than any other club has faced. And club that can stand up under such adverse fortune isn't very likely to break later on when the harder test comes on the next western trip.

FOHL SENSATION
 0F BASEBALL YEAR
Jumps from Minors in Limeight
 Of Big League

Lee FOhl, former manager of the 1 Waterbury club, is handed the follow ] ing pot of honey by the New York ] Sun:
 1 No manager has held a more con- 1 spicuous place in the public limelight this season that Lee Fohl, the pilot of the Cleveland Indians. By his clever handling of the Forest City tribe this season Fohl has proved to be the man. agerial find of the decade.
 Cleveland's remarkab ble spurt this year was enough to win Fohl recog- milton, but he really did not begin to display his managerial genius until the past month. Despite every ob- stacle, with a pitching staff of kids shot to pieces, Fohl has rallied his team after every retreat and con- t:nues to stick in the thick of the fight.
 Fohl was a baseball nobody a year ago as far as the big league fan was concerned. There was no trumpeting of horns and columns of press de- spatches when Foh1 took the oath as Cleveland manager a year ago. There were no pictures sent all over the country showing Lee with pen in hand signing his contract, as was the case
 
 q three year contract to manage the Yankees at $2O,00O a year.
 When the Joe Birminghim revolu- tion, which was smouldering in Cleve- land throughout the 1914 season, came to head about a year ago Joe's ousting and his threat to sue Charley Scmers were the big features of the Cleveland story. The last para graph of the story from the sixth city con- tained the brief statement: For the present Lee Fohl, who has been act ing as coach for young pitchers. will act as temporary manager"
 When Cleveland came to the Polo Grounds about a year ago heavy catcher was warming up a new h. dian pitcher. Not recognizing either. l Shortstop asked the catcher, "Who's that warming up, Jack?' ''Jack' looked at us curiously, as though he didn't know whether to be insulted or amused, and then mentioned the name or the pitcher. "Jack' I afterward | found out to be Lee Fohl

If Willard Quits.

The rumor is still abroad around the sunbaked landscape that Jess Willard will retire.
 If this should happen there is one logical procedure in sight-this will be for Frank Moran to face Fred Fulton and for the winner of this bout take on Jack Dillon.
 Dillon, having outpointed Moran so 6ecisively. now holds second place to the massive Kansan. Moran and Full ton are the two next in line, and those are the ones that start the elimina- ton scrimmage.

Jack BrittOn.

.'The Veteran in the same paper has the following to say of Jack Brit ten. a former New Britain boy:
 The situation in the welterwelght class was strengthened out in hurry when Jack Britton, becoming too heavy for the lightweight division, set sail for the 145 pound crown.
 Britton could have won the light weight title but for the fact that none of the title holders, especially Walsh and Ritchie, would meet the Clinton bov. Therefore, he kept growing heavier, and finally abandoned hope of getting a bout for the 135 pound honors.
 Britton met with several reverses cn his advent into the welterweight class. due principally to illness, but as soon as he got into good condition he vanuuished his chief opponents Lewis Graves and Kopin, in decisive fashion.
 Britton is getting along in years, and he is subject to physical ailments that frequently prevent him keeping arrangements. Although he is the cieverest, headiest boxer the class has known since the days of Tommy Ryan, Britton can hardly last many moro years, and some rugged youngster will take the honors from him. Among those who are particularly dangerous are Kid Lewis, who, although beaten by Britton, was by no means disgraced and who is still young and improving;

there ever was one, and that makes his present showing all the more meritorious, if not sensatlonal. Though it repeatedly has been printed that Fohl never was in the big league before landing with Cleveland that isn't so. During the American league raid on the National, Fohl playeo brief engagements with the Plrates Ill 1902 and the Reds in 19O3, put ne never caught enough in big league time to get warm.
 After that he spent about ten years ir the middle west as catcher ana later as manager, putting III a loI or time with the Three I league. In 1914 somers engaged him to manage his Waterbury club ot the then Eastern Association, and the league went on the rocks during the follow ing winter.
 As Foh1 had been a faithful servant and had developed Guy Morton and Cutfelder Elmer Smith in Waterbury, Somers brought FOhl to Cleveland to heln around, and as minor league iobs were very scarce about that time Lee accepted with thanks.
 When Birmingham was let out by coners the Cleveland club was in sorry fix both artistically and hnan- cially The team was so bad it dldn make much difference who managed it and the Somers treasury was so d>,pleted that no manager with a repu- tation could be hired. So the port folio was turned over to the minor league coach, Fohl. Lee was only temporary manager at the start, but he has his job riveted down now with several dozen steel bolts.
 The moral of this story is: Don't look with scorn on a manager simply because he didn't win his shoulder straps in the big leagues
