SCHOONERS WRECKED
 OFF NORFOLK COAST
Two Are Now Being Towed In for Repairs After Being Disabled
 at Sea.

New York, Dec. 6.--Two crippled schooners today are being lowed to- ward Norfolk. Va. The schooner Blue Bird. disabled more than a week ago when she lost her rudder in heavy seas off Hatteras, is in tow of the coast guard cutter Seneca, and the Rachel W, Stevens, another ship wrecked schooner, Is being helped into port by the coast guard cutter Mascoutin.
 The Blue Bird was laden with s50,O00 worth of mahogany logs and was a month out of Barbados, bound for Boston, when disabled. She was sighted last Sunday by the Bermuda liner Fort Victoria, which spoke 10 her and offered 10 take off her crew.
 The Blue Birds captain, however. declined the offer, confident that he could save the ship and her crew without assistance. A wireless mes sage from the Seneca yesterday an. nounced that the cutter was towing the Blue Bird, with 16 men aboard, to Norfolk.
 The Rachel W. Stevens, wrecked en route from Jacksonville to Phil adelphia and abandoned by her crew Thursday in Tater-logged condi- ton, 60 miles southeast of Hatteras, was taken in town yesterday by the Maacoutin after she had broken away from the tanker Shenandoah, and boat containing her captain and six men was picked up by the Pacific line steamer Ebro 30 miles north of Diamond Shoals lightship.

 Sport Gossip
lRy Billy Eyansl

Pitchers arc not supposed to shine at the bat. For that reason 1t Is q rather interesting coincidence that the two real batting leaders of tho American league In 1s24, began their major league careers at that position.
 Babe Ruth, swat champion Of 1924 achieved brilliant success as a pitcher before 1t was discovered that he had even greater talents as a batsman.
 When Babe quit pitching and took to the outfields so that his club might have the benefit of his super batting daily. he was recognized as tho best southpaw in the American league.
 Charlie Jamieson of the Cleve- land club. runnerup to Ruth. threw them with his left super" as a pitcher when he made his American league debut. Jamieson, however failed to reach stardom as a pitcher as did Ruth.
 Certainly Ruth and Jamieson belle the generally accepted impression that pitchers cannot hit. Each has an entirely different style at the plate.
 Despite the popularity of the open game in football 1t Is very easy matter 10 find any number of coaches who are of the opinion that the forward pass Is being overdone.
 The forward pass is the chief weapon in the open game. Success ful aerial play has been the con- tributing factor to most of the up sets in a season damned with re- versals Of form.

Football Gossip

Many of the coaches who feel that more severe restrictions should be placed on the open game are those who knew football in the old days.
 A recent suggestion by a well known coach that the number of forward passes permissible in a game be limited to 10 is rather in- teresting if not seemingly logical.
 Cnquestionably number of coaches, defeated by long forward passes in the last few minutes of play. hold no love for the promis- cuous tossing of the ball through the air.

Should the star college ball play CT who has designs on the big league indulge in football?
 Recently in discussing that phase of sport with a famous football coach, he came out strongly against the pairing of sports, If the athlete had big league ideas.
 Football and baseball have noth- ing In common, unless the player simply has the thought of his alma mater at heart and the ability to help it.
 Very often what we regard as a minor injury from a football stand point, is a catastrophe to a ball player.
 Football is a strenuous game that takes much out of the athlete. Bir league baseball. covering six months of play, calls for greater physical perfection.
 Well do I recall the case of a famous college pitcher, an equally great football player, who suffered a minor football injury to his pitching arm that eventually ended his career ds a ball player"
