The batting marks of the American
association leaders shriveled terrifl-
cally this week until only Bevo Lebour-
veau, of Toledo, was left in the .40O
class. The withdrawal of Pick, pur-
chased by the Chicago Cubs, from the
first ten, made room for Witt, of Kan

held his own this week, with mark OF
.357.
Lebourveau dropped only IL points
but Lear, the Milwaukee second base

making his debut as, big league
manager, has met with just the op-
posite conditions.

many.
Instead of being an also ran, Chi
cago, favored by fine pitching, which
Schalk has handled with excellent
Judgment, plus timely batting and
the breaks, has been the surprise OF
the race.
Since managerial ability is judged
by the games won column, Ray Schalk
is being hailed as a great manager,
while Judgment is being reserved on
George Moriarity.

TigerS Are Not BATTING

In the American league this year
we find two decided contrasts from
a managerial standpoint in George
Moriarity and Ray Schalk.
Taking over the Detroit Tigers, a
team that had always threatened un-
der Cobb, but invariably faltered in
the stretch, Moriarity was conceded
to have the nlakings of quite a. ball
club.
Some of the experts went so far as
to pick the Detroit Tigers to win the
pennant, which required most op-
timistic temperament. Less optim-
istic scribes expressed the belief that
the team would prove to be the dark
horse of the race, which after all, can
mean anything
On one thing all critics agreed in
sizing up the possibilities Of Detroit
the team could hit, regardless Of
any other faults it might have.
During the first two months of this
years play, the Tigers have failed to
do the very ahing every one agreed
they could-wIlale the tar out. of the

Instead of getting away to a
good start, the club has seldom

Manager Has Tough Job

While the life of a major league
umpire is often far from an enviable
one, there are apparently several
tougher jobs in baseball.
George Moriarity, who first starred
as big league player, became one Of
the best umpires in baseball and is
now manager of the Detroit Tigers, is
well fitted to discuss the toughest job
in baseball.
incidentally, I am positive that
George wouldn't pick umpiring as the
hardest of the three player, man
ager and umpire all of which he has
tasted.
Two hours is usually the limit of
an umpire's woe unless the game goes
into extra innings, but q manager
worries all "a hours, if he can't go to
sleep, which is often the case,' ex-
plains Moriarity, in drawing a COM
parison between the two positions.

Maoris Put Up Brave
Battle for Country

The history of the Maoris of New
Zealand is a most remarkable one.
Primitive and even cannibalistic up
to 60 years ago, they have in a
brief space Of years achieved
equality with the white man.
It Is hundreds Of years since six
large canoes, each holding about
200 persons, arrived there from
Tahiti archipelago. Maori tradi-
ton has preserved the names Of
these boats, and the New Zealand
feet now employs them. BY the
time Of the British conquest the
1000 people who had landed, ut
terly exhausted by their tremen-
dous journey, had become 10000
a small population for such large
territory.
No tribe ever exhibited such he
roism in the face of European con-
quest as did the Maoris. In seiz-
ing New Zealand, Great Britain
lost $4,000 soldiers. though the
forces Of the Maoris, armed only
with old-fashioned wooden weap-
ons, did not exceed 1900. When
peace finally came, the conquerors
found they had deep respect for
the conquered.-Arnaldo Cipolla In
La Stampa, Turin diving Age).

High Sounding Names
GiUen to F0undlin2

80 long as there are 1ounQllngS
doubtless there viii be the prob
lem; what to name them.
Recently the Lewisham board OF
guardians, England, tried a more
elaborate device-with rather COM
plicated results, according to news
paper reports. An infant was
found abandoned In a motor car,
and, striving to find name that
should contain a reference to the
history Of the case, one member of
the board suggested that the baby
be called Alice Motor. Another
member urged that they choose
decent name," and then still an
other objected that as vet they
didn't know whether the founding
was a girl or boy.
The chairman Of the board
thought 1t was a girl, but the dep
uty clerk, Having made inquiries"
made the emphatic announcement
that the child was a boy. This de-
tail established, the quest for a
name was resumed.
III Wnat part OF the dlgn street
was the child discovered?" asked
a board member, reminding the as
sembled company that 1--WE had a
child discovered In Lewisham
park some years ago and called 1t
Park"
The clerk 50 id the child had been
found near the Kings hall. "Call
1t George King" some one ven
tured.
And since the discovery had been
made close to Granville park, an
other thought the boy should be
named George Granville. Compro-
mise ended In the bestowal OF q
very grand name indeed: George
Granville King. And as such II
was duly christened by the chap
lain.
