SCHUPP GETS BOOST
FROM THE VETERAN
Andy coakley Watches Work
Of the Young Pitcher and
Then Forecasts Bright
Future for Him.

New York, June 2,-Andy Coakley,
the old Athletic pitcher, likes to sit
in the press stand at the Polo
grounds, right back of the catcher,
From this vantage point one can get
almost as good look at pitched
balls as Umpire Byron gets and lot
better than some other umpires
seem to.
Coaklcy occupied his favorite point
Of observation at the initial Giant
Cub clash OF the season. He was
particularly interest in the hooks and
curves OF Ferdinand Schupp, the
Giant pitching pride.
1t mattered not that Schupp was
hit little harder than usual, although
he beat the Cubs, Coakley was only
interested in what Sehupp was
putting on the ball.
"That fellow" said Andy, "is some
pitcher. ] don't see how anyone bats
against him effectively. He has the
best curved ball ! ever looked at, and
I've looked at few in my time.
THE most remarkable thing about
il is his control of 1t. He sweeps it
over the outer edge high or low, or
on the inside, with as great ease as
Matty used to do. | never saw a
southpaw pitch that way. The more
stuff they have the wilder they usu-
ally are.
II don't want to seem extravagant
in my praise, but II there has ever
been Schupp's equal in recent years,
he has escaped my notice. | wouldn't
give him for any other pitcher in
base ball today il he were my prop.

The Fiction of an Ambassador.

! The speech of Ambassador Gerard in
Berlin Saturday night at the banquet
rendered him upon his return to his post
was remarkable deliveranee. True, it
was only one of many in which the Cor
dial relations existing between the gov
ernments of the United States and Ger
many" were emphasized, but the am
bassador, who was likened to "the peace
dove of Noah's ark" made formal and
official announcement that Never since
the beginning of the war have relations
between Germany and the United States
been so cordial as now" Whether we
have forgotten about the Lusitania or
are Indifferent to the subsequent war
fare of frightfulness the ambassador neg
lected to say.
This announcement of the new era of
friendship, upon which the United States
has allegedly entered with Germany,
calls to mind the words of the seere-
tary of state, supposedly his superior
officer, in the first of his series of ex-
plantations after the publication of the
presidents note to the powers. Secre-
tary lansing said, on Dec. 81, that, eve
are drawing nearer the verge OF war our
selves" Senator Lewis, speaking for the
administration in the Senate last week,
declared that If the war continued the
United States could not keep out of it.
1t was generally supposed that the con-
tinuance in more aggressive form of
Germany's undersea warfare of fright
fulness was what the secretary and sena-
tor had in mind, and that If trouble came
