New York, May 4.-Sing the praises
of Christy Mathewson, Grover Alexan-
der, Walter Johnson. Go back into the
past and dust off the sparkling records
of Cy Young, Joe McGinnity, Jack
Chesbro-any of them. Then come back
to present day performances and gaze
on the record of Jack Coombs.
In the stretch of years that Coombs
has been pitching he never has been
beaten by the Giants. Eleven games
now hang at his belt as victories over
teams led by John ]. McGraw. HIS
eleventh point was reached yesterday
when the former iron man of the Ath-
letics went 10 innings to turn back the
team that has been picked to win the
National league pennant in a walk.
INJURED IN 1911.
The worlds series of 1911 first saw
Coombs facing the Giants and he won
over Christy MatheWson. He went back
in the fifth game of the series, but fell
quivering to the ground when he in
jured himself. The score was a tie at
3 to 8, which really makes IL games in
which Coombs has faced the Giants
without defeat.
He was released from the Athletics
when Connie Mack thought he was
through. He was through to the extent
of having great part in pitching the
Dodgers to a pennant last year and TO
the extent of winning the only game
credited to the Dodgers in the la st
worlds series
This is Coombs' eleventh year as
big league pitcher. although the record
leaves a big gap in the years of 1913
and 1914, years which Coombs spent for
the most part in a bed with weights
strapped to his feet.

A deep hole in the transports port

the collision. The captain of the Pan

kept his vessel until all on board the
