the tenth period that Kopf broke the
big Cub twirler's string with n single.
The major league annals for the
past II years show that the greatest
number of no-hlt games pitched in any
one season was In 1908 when there
were four in the American and two in
the National league. In 1900, 1905 and
1916 four such feats were recorded.
With virtually four months OF sched-
ule play ahead 1t would appear as
though the 1917 corps of twlrlers had
an unusual opportunity to establish
new figures in this direction since
three more no-hit games will surpass
the total made In 1908.

CAST-0FFS ARE MAKING GOOD
lefty Russell and Bruno Haas, Dis
carded by Athletics, Playing Well
for Newark.

Two cast-of Athletic pitchers are
making good as regular players for the
Newark International league club.
They are Lefty Russell, who is COW
erlng first base, and Bruno Haas, who
is playing in the outield. Both men
have won the fans with their mighty
hitting.
Haas and Russell weren't with the
Athletics very long, but they are dis
tinctly remembered by Phlladelphians.
Russell came there In 1910 from Balti-
more for money and players amount
ing to $4,000.
He never made good because of III
ness contracted during the previous
winter and went to the minors, where
he has since played good ball.
Bruno Haas Joined the Athletics In
1915, and on June % of that season
made a worlds record by issuing 10
bases on balls to New York batsmen.
Both Russell and Haas saw they
would never make pitchers, so adapted
themselves to other positions. where
they are having better fortune.

saying that In face Of the fact that
they had never been managed at all,
something like u judicious effort in
that direction was very likely to pro-
duce good results.
"She's rather pretty, too" went on
Mrs. Warren. "She has the loveliest
complexion, just pink and white. But
you'll see her at dinner. And 1 warn
you, John, don't you dare to fall in
love with her!"
Johns smile this time was rather
more weary than quizzical. He was n
man of about t~hirty-five, with II clear
u strong face, not handsome but
wholesome and reliable. He leaned
back in his chair, and said in a bored
way: "Elsie, Pm just about as tired

Don't worry" vas Bayard's laconic
response.
Perhaps If Mrs. Warren had not
been SO anxious about 1t, the very
thing she had feared might not have
happened. But she saw by Monday
morning 1t had. When her brother
started for the train, he announced
that he intended to be out again the

SO finely, and, besides, If John had
fallen in love with the girl, nothing on

That's a good idea" said Mrs. Tur-

went to call on the new queer ami
mails.
Now really and truly they werol't
animals at all, but of that the Turkeys
500 heard.
"The queer animals" as they called
them, We're standing around talking
n little to each other. They were
gray and were tall.
Their bodies were covered with beau
tlful gray feathers-of lovely silver
gray color. Even the Turkeys had to
admit the color of their feathers was
very beautiful.
"~Good-day," said Mrs. Turkey, as she
came near the gray creatures"

"I1a, ha, gobble, gobble," laughed Mr..

the same-when you each have two
feet. Why not use all you have? II

Now Mrs. Turkey was n little afraid
that they might think Mr.. Turkey was

you like the Master?"
"We're here for ever so long," said
the "grny animals" "And We like the

Mrs. Warren was delighted with the
new governess. Elsie and Jack were
certainly not the easiest proposition to
handle. Jack, the eldest, n boy of nine
years, was self-willed and hot tenn
pered, and Elsie, two years his junior,
was obstinate, and both were consid-
erably spoiled. A succession of gov
ernesses had come and gone in various
states of dissatisfaction or disgust, so
when the blue-eyed, soft-spoken little
Russian applied for the position Mrs.
Warren caught at her as a drowning
man does at n straw.
Sophie Torsky had gentle, well-bred
manners, and her French was ire

WOULD SKATER BALL TEAMS
Estimated That ITO Major League
Players Are Subject to Service
Under SeIective Draft.

Something like ITO major league
baseball players are subject to army
service under the selective draft, this
being the estimate of an official. The
players liable to service are about
equally divided between the two
leagues. 1t Is the custom of baseball
players to keep their age down to
about thirty, ven when they are
known to be considerably older, but
even at that there are a good many
youngsters playing on the big teams
who are between twenty-one and
thirty.
There seems to be a bare chance
that the ball teams will not be dis.
rupted this season. or the players who
could be taken, probably 80 or &C
would be exempt for one reason or
another. The remaining total would be
insignificant compared with the size
of the army to be raised and Officials
declare many congressman are In ia
vor of letting The big league finish
their present campaign without break
ing up the teams.
