GETS L0BERT's GOAT

John LObert, third baseman in
years past for the Reds, Phillies
and Giants, lives in Philadelphia
in the off season. There is not
q more genial soul In the world
than John, but there is one sure
way to make his chOler rise. That
Is to recall n of the few bone
head plays in which he was ever
implicated.
He was playing third for the
Phillies, and he tagged out Bob
Bescher, who tried to steal the
bag. 1t was the second out in
the fifth inning, but both Bescher
and Lobert decided simultaneous
ly that 1t was the third. John
threw off his glove; and started
for the bench; Bob trotted out
into left field.
And 1t took almost physical
violence on the part oe Red Doin
and Joe Tinker to convince them
that they were wrong.
