GA BOHEME" SUNG

At the second Of the four San Carlo
performances of grand opera at the
METROPOLITAN Opera House last evening
LA Bohcme" was presented to con-
siderably more numerous audience than
that attending "Tosca" on the opening
night.
The vocal honors were evenly divided
between Queena Mario. the Mimi. and
rilade Sinagra. the Rudolfo, both Of
whom sang brilliantly their various
nrias. and rarely has the familiar II
Am Poet" Of Rodolfo been better
rendered than by Sinagra.
Nor we're they alone responsible for
the vocal delight of the performance,
for Musetta's song in the second net as
rendered by Miss Kettle was as nrtis-
tic as any Of the numbers, and the Mar
eel Of Mario Vale, the admirable Col
line of Henri Scott. Philadelphia most
contributor to the operate
stage, and the Shaunard of Manuel
Perez were oil faithfully assumed and
well sung. and there was fine harmony
in all of the concerted numbers.
The entire performance moved with
unusual precision. The chorus and the
little stage pageant of the second act
were in harmony, vocally and other
wise. with the general atmosphere, and
the large orchestra, under the direction
of Gaetano Merola. gave a fine and fin
ished reading Of the beautiful instru-
mental score.

Cleveland and New York are the
cream clubs of the American
league.
The Indians will get better pitch
ing than they had last year. Short
stop Sewell has swept away all
doubts as to his ability to come
through.
Mails and Uhle will make big
five pitching staff, whereas Speaker
won the pennant last year with q
big three-Coveleskie Bagby and
Caldwell.
Also there is a high degree Of
harmony among the Indians.
1t is due chiefly to this spirit OF
pulling together" that Cleveland
looks like better bet than the col
orful Yankee sluggers.
The Yankees will slug their way
to many victories. But even Babe
Ruth with all his 81 home runs in
1920 only decided nine games in
the Yankees favor by his circuit
drives.
Lee Fohl and his Browns get
third place. Foil looks to be a big

Lake Charles, La. April s.
Pitcher Ed Rommel, star ace of the
Athletics mound staff, has a
knuckle ball that fools 'em all.
Last season he fooled the wise
Cleveland Indians so often that he
was called their ink.
Rommel uses it as his slow ball
fooler.
The ball is held with the thumb
and knuckles so that when it floats
up to the plate it turns but very
little.
1t looks as big as a house to a
batter.
Controlling the knuckle ball is
the most difficult part in MASTER
ing it.
Il have been experimenting with
it for four years." says Rommel.
1T has as sharp a break as the
spit ball.
Il can't tell which way 1t will
break. I've got so l can be Ger
tain it will break over some por-
ton Of the plate. It may be the
outside corner, the inside corner
or over the middle.

the spit ball. I used to fool with
it some until they told me spitters
would be ruled out of the majors
