CONNIE MACK TRADED PITCHER COVELESK FOR
 BOX OF RED APPLES

New York, Aug. 1S-Any time the Yankees hook up in series with the Cleveland Indians 1t means one or more troublesome afternoons with Stanley Coveleskie, younger brother of the Covelskie family of pitchers who is booked to work in one of the games of the current series at the Polo Grounds.
 Stanley, whose chief claim to dis tinction at the time he came to the big league was the fact that he was the brother of the more or less illus trious Harry of Detroit, has been making such progress in his first year with the Indians he no longer has to bask in the shadow of his more famous big brother
 Manager Lee Fohl has not attempt ed to parcel out credit for the present position of the Cleveland club, but almost everyone gives Iris Speaker most or the credit for the showing of the team. However, had it not been Tor 'Coveleskie the Indians would probably not be so we'll up in the pennant race as they are now.
 While he has done nothing exactly sensational, Coveleskie was the iron man of the Indians when they needed an iron man to hold them up. Inst after Morton joined Kiepfer on the hospital list and left the Indians with a shattered pitching staff, while they were still in first place, CoveIeskie came to the rescue. In one week he pitched in seven games, going the en- tire distance in two of them and fin- ishing for other pitchers in the other

ERECT BIG ARENA
 FOR WELSH-W . BOUT IN COLORADO

New York, Aug. 1S-An army of carpenters is working on the huge outdoor arena where the Welsh White championship match is to be staged. reads a report from Colorado Springs. At the same time the pro- motors are flooding the mails with literature detailing the plans of the structure, which is being built un- der the ''shadow of Pike's Peak"
 The arena will take up an entire block, the bleacher seats being built on four streets. The plans call for seats for 10000, making 1t second in size to that built at Reno for the Jeffries-J Johnson bout. The prices range from $15 for ringside box seats to $3 for the bleachers, or general admission Other reserved seats are on sale at $10, $7.550 and $5. Twelve entrances are provided for in the plans, one on each corner of the arena and two on each of the four bundary streets Excursions on all railroads are advertised, and it is evil dent that the promoters expect one of the greatest crowds in ring history.
 Welsh is already training for the bout. this being his third day of work. He takes a twelve mile road jaunt in the morning and another long hike in the afternoon. The champion insists that he does not need much gymna- sium work, but he desires to make sure of his wind in the strange alti- tude. White has not started his train ing. He has arrived at Colorado Springs, and Is making arrangements for quarters there.

REMOVE KAUFF IN
 NINTH INNING FOR
 5000 PINCH HITTER

Chicago, Aug. 1s-The Cubs yes esrday sxhibited team made up of substitutes pitchers. Federal Leasuers. and others but they beat the Giants. The score was to O.. Beating the Giants has been . popular pasttme since those talented opera tivos turned their faces Westward. They're faded Giants so far on this, thair third, Western crusade. Their batting is languishing, and they are dinldent and spritless- They've lost their last five games and have been blnnked in three of them.
 Zimmerman and Williams two of Tinker's best hftters. were abseno; yet the Cubs made enough hits to win, although Sallee pitched splendid game. The home folks, however, had an antidote for Sallee- Jim Vaughn was just as capable . left handler. Jim had speed and a sharp, breaking hook. He, too, was invulnerable with men on bases Seventeen men in all were left, nine Giants, eigho Cubs.
 Neither . new batting order nor . new training regulation for the Giants acted as a brace for them Fletcher was moved up ahead of Kauff They Aid nothing in their new nfches, and the ninth inning saw Kauf-Kauff, the renowned wielder of the hafl- removed for a pinch hitter. True, 1t was a logical move. because Benny is a. southpaw hitter and Vaughn a Bouthpaw pitcher, but it was some thing of a comedown for the batting monarch of the late Federal league

five. That one weeks work probably saved the Cleveland club.
 Right after that Manager Fohl got hold of Gould and Lambeth. who have since been sharing the burden, and now Klepfer has returned to help out. Coveleskfe worked so often he has not been so effective recently, and it is feared he has been worked out for the season. He has won fourteen games and lost nine. record of win- ming as good as that of ,his club.
 The Indians secured Coveleskie from the Portland club of the Pacific Coast league, where he won about sixteen games and lost the same number last year. There is a story told about him which gives him the added, distinc- ton of being the only ball player ever traded for barrel of apples.
 According to this yarn, Coveleskie was once the property of Connie Mack and was turned back to Portland Connie was so busy winning pennants in those days he forgot entirely about Covey and failed to take up his claim for the player. Coveleskie became technically the outright property of Portland.
 Later on Connie thought about him. and on inquiring at Portland received box of big red apples from Man ager McCreedle, who explained that he wished to keep the pitcher. Connie let it go at that and accepted the ap- ples. He wishes today, probably, that he had the pitcher instead.

CRIFFlN'S DEFEAT
 OF WILLIAMS IS SURPRISE IN TENNIS

Newport, R. l., Aug. 1s-An echo of the Longwood singles resounded in the invitation tennis tournament on the Casino courts yesterday. when Richard Norris Williams. 2d. winner of the Newport event last year, falter- ed and fell before the attack of the sturdy little western player. Clarence J. Griffin, who was his conqueror in the earlier meeting between the two at Boston. The former national champion had to acknowledge defeat in a four set match with the score 7-- 5, 6-3, 3-6, S-6. The result came as a blow to many who had believed that Williams would be the one' to face William M. Johnston in the final round. Griffin once said, "In tennis you are a star today and a dub to-
 morrow" but in the seasons play against Williams he has thus far had the stellar role.
 There is no disposition to make light. of the victory of Griffin when 1t is said that Williams was far from being in condition to play such a formidable rival. The path for the ex-champion's downfall was paved by another of the Californian group yesterday. In the. last set with Ro- land Roberts, Williams slipped in att tempting to cut off a passing stroke and his right ankle was severely wrenched.
 When he came on the court this morning there was evidence of a. weakness in the injured member. which Griffin soon made more pro- nounced by playing soft strokes when Williams was attempting to stay in the deep court. Both men played some excellent tennis and Griffin might have won even had conditions been more favorable to his rival, but as 1t was the test of skill was not en- tirely satisfying. Williams was fully twenty-five per cent. weaker than when he played such sterling tennis against William M. Johnston In the East vs. West matches.

GREAT RALLY BY YANKEES IN NINTH
 BEATS CLEVELAND

New York, Aug. 18.-In a hard fought and exciting battle the Tanks defeated the Cleveland Indians again at the Polo grounds yesterday by a score of to 4. It was Lute Boone's single in the ninth which sent Peck home with the winning run.
 The weather conditions were ideal for the contest and a crowd CT 1000 fans came out to cheer the home boys on. They were well repaid, for it was one of those games where .hcre was plenty of suspense and plenty of ac- ton. The Yankees came from behind and won in a driving finish. This is the very best sort of an afternoon entertainment for the spectators.
 Donovan's men are now only two and one-half games behind second place. They are playing with renew ed confidence and before the last O.: the Western teams leaves the Brush stadium it is possible that our boys may again be well toward the top. Baker and Oldring are about ready to play and the boys have by no means given up the idea of spending a little worlds series money.
 Lee Fohl started Covaleskie, who has been tough proposition for Don- ovan's men all season, and the Yan- kees took to his offerings like ducks to water. They nicked the Polish pitcher for 13 hits in eight innings and then won the game off Guy Morton.
 Fisher did the twirling for our side and was only fairly effective. Shaw key worked the final frame and turn ed the enemy back without difficulty. We do not krow just how many games Bob has finished for other mounds men, but it must be good many. He is easily the Tanks best bet this year.

BRIDGEPORT LOSES
 ON POOR PITCHING
Special to The Farmer.)

Lynn, Aug. 1S.-Poor pitching Of the kind that handicapped Bridgeport ear ly in the season was in evidence again yesterday and the Hustlers lost game they apparently had sewed up. They had lead of 10 to 2 when Lynn came to bat in the ninth but the Coo- blers got four runs and victory before the side was out.
 Four pitchers were used during the massacre Gilmore started for Bridge port and for three innings baffled Lynn. In the fourth they lambasted him for three tallies, and fn the sixth got four more. This was enough Tor Gilmore. shanty House was called in and, with a lead of three runs in the ninth 1t was thought he would sur vive With Moshier catching he did not appear to be very effective. how ever, and the home club pounded out a victory.
 Waite Hoyt, the 17-year-old Giant recruit, started for Lynn. He was tapped for six runs before he was re- moved in the sixth. Jewett relieved him. Bridgeport got three more mark CTS before Jewett settled down but he checked them until the ninth when the Hustlers got one more. Warner, Horkheimer, Blake and Duggan starred for Bridgeport.

N. Y. SUSPICIOUS
 OF CONN. MARKERS

Connecticut autoists driving in New York have met with difficulties TOT using paseboard substitutes for the regulation Connecticut markers, issued hv tshe state automobile department at the Capitol. They found it hard to make the New York traffic officers be- lieve that the state department dealt in such low grade markers as paste- board and, thinking them to De pno- n.y. affairs self-fnvented for the oc- casion. the police stopped many driv- CTS and took them to headquarters to explain. Reports of so many such oc- currences in New York peached the automobile department of the secre- tary of the states office here; that Chief Clerk Frederick J. wetstine communicated with the New York po- lice commissioner, explaining that the embargo placed upon certain lines of freight by the New Haven" road had caused the shortage of markers in tho state department and that, as tenn porary expedient. it was necessary to devise and issue the hor--e-made brand of marker, which the New York authorities had refused to honor. Sat- isfied with the explanation, the police department of New York, from the office of the third Ceputy commission CT, replied to the Connecticut depart ment yesterday as follows:
 'The police commissioner directs mo to acknowledge receipt of your conn munication addressed to him under date of August g, enclosing copy of Q certificate which you state you are temporarily issuing to automobile owners in place of your regular auto mobile markers, and also stating that the drivers of automobiles bearing this certificate or temporary marker have been stopped by officers of this C. partment.
 This matter has been taken up with the office of the secretary of state in this city. where I am in- formed it has been stated that con- sessions should be made in this city to all automobilists 0 Connecticut bearing these temporary permits. until such time as your regular official markers shall be issued. Members of this department have accordingly been so notified.
 Will you be kind enough to advise me as soon as your regular ofncial markers arc isSuedr
