 Patsy FGaherty, former Mobile manager, and now scouting for the Cleveland h. dians, is in New Orleans giving Sewell a closeup and to make his report to Business Manager Barnard Though Flaherty says he is simply. fitting through the minors, he doesn't deny that Joe Sewell is the most interesting young ball player for him in the Southern league circuit
 Flaherty is enthusiastic over Sewelfs s prospects to eventually succeed Ray Chapman as Cleveland shortstop.
 "He looks to have all the ability any youngster could possess. I think he will develop into a great ball player and in time the Indians may be showing as good a man as Chapman. but this may be year or so yet says the scout.
 With Sewell certain to be recalled. c. H. Ebbetts, owner of the Brooklyn club, has detailed scout to give Pug Allen a. thorough up and down. Allen, accord ing to information. is with the Pelicans under an optional agreement. His work of late justified Ebbets in exercising the option the cash consideration of which IS said to be in the neighborhood of sSoo

Joe .SelUeU to Go
 to Indians at End
 Of Season, Report
By GEORGE Fl. WATSON

Press dispatches from New Orleans indicate that Joe SeweI former Uni versity of Alabama star will go with the Cleveland Indians at the end of the season. At present Joe is playing at shortstop for the New Orleans Pelicans
 As q baseball and football star at the University of Alabama for four years Sewel1 was one of the best known athletes in the state. The report that he Is going up' if true will be inter esting ito all followers of college sports.
 Joe has been the backbone of the baseball team of the university since his. entrance into college. He and Riggs Stevenson formed a keystone guard that was largely responsible for Ala bama winning the s. I. A. A. cham ionship for three consecutive years Joe was captain and second baseman of the team last session.
 setell played semi pro ball with Westfield last summer and as a result he made many friends in Birmingham. Upon his completion of college last spring he received many offers from both the Southern and the big leagues The Cleveland Indians had scout to look him over at that time.
 Although lacking confirmation,
 1t Is reported that seweIPs close
 friend, 'Riggs" Stevenson, has
 gentlemnn's agreement to go with
 the Indians upon the completion of
 the football and baseball season at
 the university this coming session.
 ~Stevien is n player every whit as
 good as sewell, according to those
 who have seen them in action.

It was certainly an occasion for much rejoicing by Walter Johnson the other day when Harry Hooper. last man up ir the ninth inning grounded out to the first basenlan. It meant to the great hurler the realization of the ambition that has been his ever since he broke into the American League fourteen years ago-the achievement of no run, no hit prformance
 A great pitcher-in fact, probably the greatest pitcher not only of his own day, but of all time-Johnson has la bored faithfully with a second division outfit since 1907. During this stretch of time he has performed marvellous pitch ing feats, but not until July 1 in Boston did he manage to earn the distinction of having pitched a no-hit game.
 His latest feat comes as a just reward for his untiring effort in the face of the most discourag ging circumstances and as a crowning achievement of career which promises to go down as the greatest.
 The speed kings lot as a member of the Senators has been one which did not tend to bring out the best in pitcher. But Johnson was undismayed though he might well have been. for Washington was invariably to be found in the ruck of the second divisional Eopeless ball club, when the October flag fell Had he been fortunate enough to have been a member of pennant-win- ming team or even a first division club
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-07-22

his already marvellous record would have been still more brilliant.
 Many of the heart-breaking pitching duels in which Johnson participated and from which he came out second best would have been won were he accorded better support in the field or given a margin of a run or two to work on The inability of his teammates to hit or field. when to do either would have meant victory cost Johnson scores of games Such a state of affairs surely was enough to dishearten any pitcher any pitcher except Walter Johnson Much has been said and written con. corning the remarkable pitching prow- ess of Johnson and for me to say any, thing further of his ability would be simply a repetition of what others have said and entirely superfluous. However, I would like to bring to attention that Johnson is as great off the field as when he is in the box burning 'ern over.
 As an illustration I will cite a little incident concerning his sportsmanship;
 After losing a heart-rending pitching struggle by the score of to O. due to a huff of an easy fly ball by Outfelder Milan, some years ago, one of the Red Sox players ventured alongside of the great pitcher as Johnson was strolling off the field and opined:
 Pretty tough game for you to lose today. Walter. If it hadn't been for Milan dropping that ball you would have won.'
 Huh" answered Johnson q was just thinking of how many games this same Milan won for me in the past

 The noted J. Pluvius saved the Bears from another beating yesterday. ac- cording to Moley's men, when the Hoods deluged affairs in the Gulf City and made the. baseball field a fitting place for a rowing regatta rather than diamond encounter. The Barons. talk ing two of sthe three battles, left Mo bile with the series on the right side of the ledger, after losing the preyi- ous series to the Pelicans
 The Atlanta and New Orleans con test yesterday afternoon was also <ained out.
 The Barons and Crackers. then.
 are exactly tied for honors of third
 place this morning, and will staRe
 trio Of hectic struggles begin
 ming today for the possession of
 the third position. It will be n
 fight from beginning to end. and
 both managers will send their best
 mcundsmen to the firing line to
 ward the attack of their opponents.
 Joe Coffindaffer will very likely be Moleys selection for hurling duties when hostihties start this afternoon and Mir. Coffindaffer has had enough rest from box duties to be at his best. Hhe lanky twtrler has been holding hown the Left field assignment in the absence of Al Ellis. Meeker or Gala gher will likely enter the box for the succeeding game.
 Opposing the Bsrcut1ls will probs- ply be Daniel Boone the former star pf the University of Alabama slab Ftaf Boone was handicapped at the airst of the season on account of an injury. but has rounded into form and has been twirling good hall for rhoify Frank. Tom Sheehan, the jinx of fhA Rarnni1I oyN ;wIa Walker, Rube Robinson and several others. will likely twirl the second en- counter of the series and Markle, the pitcher secured by the Crackers from the Castle Cords team of Pennsylvania will probably enter the box for the third argument
 The three moundsnen named are s trio of formidable twtriers. and the Barons will have to go the limit to yin two of the three battles.
 The Crackers trimmed the men
 ef Moley on three occasions in ffvc
 attempts during their series Inst
 week, and the locals are feeling all
 revengeful and pugnacionxIIke.
 This Tom sheehnn person is the
 guy who gave the MoIeyttes tive
 of the drubbings, and Frank ts sure
 to send his star boxman against
 the locals on one occasion. Shee-
 han ts one of the best twirIerz fn
 Boss Martins circuit.
 It is very probable that Al E11is, injured left gardener. VIII be in con- dtion to take his place in the sun fl cid today. Ellis was injured in Atlanta last week, and his absence from the lineup has been missed very much lay Moley's contenders. His absence from his posi- ton practically cost the loss of at least one game during the road trip. Coffin daffer has been playing good ball since he was placed in left.
 Stuffy Stewart popular guardian of the second station, will also be seen i'm the lineup by local fans for the first time in over two weeks. Stewart joined the team in Mobile last Sunday.

SISLER ONLY MAN TO
 STEAL ON RAY SCHALK

Ray Schalk.4s ca gle eyed catcher TOT the White Sox, is breaking up the art of base stealing His sure shots to sec ond base have cut down many enter prsing gents who had in mind to pill fer the sack. Statistics show that in the last 35 combats only one of the numerous daring base robbers has been able to deliver the goods. This soli- tary honor goes to George Sisler. who swiped one sack on Cracker" Schalk in the Memorial Day game at St Louis.
 While looking up the statistics on Schalk, his teammates took account Of the exploits of Eddie Murphy, miracle man of the pinch hitters. He is now the proud possessor of a record Of six straight pinch wallops. His string in- cludes five singles and a triple in six jaunts to the plate. It seems he can unbuckle the old base-hit just when and where he desires, regardless of who is pitching. His mates would probably explode with amazement if he should ever fail to deliver his usual base hit in a pinch.--New Orleans Item.
