There was considerable elation OnS
Coogan's Bluff over Pings achieve
ment. but the local citation was moth
ing compared to that felt on another
hill at the other side of the continent.
We refer to Telegraph Hill. San Fran
cisco. which is the Coogans Bluff by
the Golden Gate. Ping, whose monicker
VAS then Francisco Pizzola. used to be
q member Of the tribe of Rock Rollers
who inhabit the slopes of this hill,
rolling powders down upon the heads
OF all invaders.
Tony. the peanut boy, observed in
connection with the home run of
Signor Pizzola, "Pinga da Bode, he got
one big brain. He wait till they fila
da base. Then he pasta da home run.
Bambno Ruth, he pasta the ball into
the stand all da time. Gooda boy,
Plnga da Bode."
Shawkey Harshly Treated
There were other long hits at the
expense of Robert the Colbert Shawkey,
Who resumed work in the box yester
day for the first time since an UNI
pire's head collided with one of his
fists. The collision cost Robert the
Colbert quite a little change, and he
will avoid anything like it in the flu
ture.
Walker and Dykes, of the Athletics,
get home runs into the left field
bleachers The one achieved by Dykes
denied the signboards back of the
bleachers. Walker also got long
triple, and tired himself out hitting
so that he had to be sent to the show
ers to cool off and Amos Strunk went
in to take his place.
For while the Yankees looked as
though they. were about to flop back
into slump and the Athletics behind
Roy Moore, the child marvel, looked
like regular members of the league,
especially in the seeking department.
Robert the Colbert was considerably dis
pleased when they began to paste him,
but after Ping Bodie put the Yanks to
the fore Robert settled down to his
knitting and had the Apathetic batters
swinging at the humidity in a more
natural fashion. The longer Bob the
Cob pitches the better he gets.
came in the first inning with two out.
Walker put it over the left field wall
close to the foul line and it was
ruled safe. Meusel scored one for the
Yankees in the same inning when
Peckinpaugh cot base on balls.
Meusel shot a triple over Wits head
and the run came.
In the second inning Dusan bounced
a ee-hagger Oft the first field wall.
He scored when Witt rolled slow one
down TO first and ROY that section of the
Yankee infeld somewhat kinked up. In
the third inning Dykes started with
q hit to left. Walker, the author of
the hrst inning home run, tripled to
right center and scored Dykes.
Dykes Hits Into Bleachers
In the fifth inning Dykes got another
run all by himself. He drove the ball
high up 10 the back of the left field
bleachers for real home run. 1t was
about as healthy a paste as has been
sent through this season. This gave
the Apathetics lead of three runs
and filled the stands with considerable
apprehension.
Then came the sixth and Ping Bodie,
especially Ping Bodie Meusel got a
base on balls, but was forced by Pipp.
Ruth, who had been annoyed ali after
noon by moving picture camera set
to eaten him in the act of making his
sixteenth home run, cracked out 4
mere two-bagger; yes, only q. twobaT
ger. Pratt got base on balls, fllin-,
the bases and setting the stage for the
entrance of Ping Bodie.
Ping walked 10 the plate with tho
hauteur of the Telegraph Hill Roc;
Roller in his manner. He plastereG
the ball in among the customers il
the right field stand and emptied tlo
bases of Yankees, the first time tt
this has been done az the Polo Grou.i
this season. The popular sentimo
is that Ping ought to get more he
runs-he tips his cap so gracefully.
After that nothing of note appear
The Apathetics used variety
pitchers, finishing up with SEQ
Perry. Shawkey frightened up witN
