ROGERS HORNSBY
Loss IS OFFSET
BY new ROCKIES
O'Doul and Cohen Expected
to Duplicate Feats Of the
Waner Brothers
BY ALAN ]. GOULD

(Assoclatcd Press Sports Editor)
New York, Feb. 1O.-(AP)-The
New York Giants probler Of find
ing some batting punch to offset the
loss Of Rogers Hornsby's potent
wallop will be solved il two Of the
clubs newcomers, Frank (Lefty)
O'Doul and Andy Cohen, measure
up to anythin- like their 1927 per-
formances in double.A company.
O'Doul, like Babe Ruth, 10 4 re-
formed pitcher who discove red his
bat to be more potent than his
curves, 30 much 50, that as q reserve
player Of San Francisco he was
voted the most valuable player in
the Pacific coast league last -.
With m average Of .37S, he was
runner up to his teammate, Jolly,
for the leagues batting crown.
Cohen, the widely heralded Jewish
infielder, who may succee.' Hornsby
at the keystone bag, was . big fac
tor in Buffalo's International league
pennant victory last season, batting
1853 and fielding sensationally.
Both O'Doul and Cohen are ex-
pected to land regular berths by
Manager John McGraw, who feels
they have had sufficient experience
to step into fast company and make
good. But it will all depend on
whether their batting eyes are Is
good against big league pitching as
they were in the minors.
Batting Eyes Glow
Batting eyes that glow in the
minors frequently become dull in
the big league glare, but there are
also numerous cases where they
have become even brighter.
The famous Waner brothers, for
instance, never hit minot league
pitching any harder than tn have
the slants Of National league box
men. In fact, Lloyd Waner, in his
debut last season, hit just as hard
under the big TOP Is he did the year
before in the somewhat obscure con.
fines Of the "Sally" league.
Paul Waner, the batting king of
the National league last year, did
considerable to offset the impress
sion that most Pacific coast league
averages shrink in the east. Paul
Strand was q sensation while hitting
in the rarified atmosnhere Of Salt
Lake City and q "bust" with the
Athletics. Jimmy O'Connell was an
other whose stickwork fell off when
he came to the majors.

far from the happy golden days Of the willow
pole with q butchers string line, fixed with
hooks ten for dime, whose compelling lure
is one segment of an angle worm, and whose
incarnation is splitting on the bait. Modern
tackle makers are nothing if not ingenious.
They have invented all manner Of preposterous
lures that would be laughed off the face Of the
waters if some fish weren't fool enough to fall
for them. They have secured the world for
bamboo, lacquer, tin, nickel, feathers and all
the other accoutrements Of rod and reel and
fly. Yet to what purpose? The millionaire
in all his glory has no more chance than the
boy with his worm and rude pole, and for both
these are dark days.
Millions of dollars are being spent every
year by federal and state governments, in
dividuals and organizations of sportsmen in
a nationwide effort to restore good fishing
for everyone. There has been gradual i'm
provement in many sections but fishing is still
far from being good" in the old meaning of
the word.
Experience has shown the conservationists
that pouring hatchery-raised fish into the
streams is not enough. A large percentage
of the protected and handled fish starve to
death or are eaten by their more cannibalistic
brethren between the time they are placed in
the stream and the time they are large enough
to CATCH Differentiation has deprived them of
their natural food and protection and stream
pollution has made their primitive haunts un-
inhabitable.
