INTERESTED

BRIDGEWATER. Mass, Oct. 5
G.N.SO.-This little Bay State
town, where Mickey" Cochrane
was brought up and where he still
hangs his hat in the off-season, Is
world series conscious.
The town resembles a deserted
village during game time. No work
is being done. Everybody is either
in st. Louis or by the radio await
ing news on the Tigers and what
"the Cochrane kid" is doing with
the Detroit Tigers.
Cochrane's father and mother
and his brother, Archie, are at the
series, cheering Mickey" They
went by automobile with Louis Ces-
ami, an ardent Cochrane fan.
The only ones remaining at the
Cochrane home on Pleasant Street
were Mrs. Archie Cochra e,
Mikes" sister-in-law, and her 512-
months-old daughter, Rae.
II would have dearly loved to
have gone, but Rae is too young

trip" said Mrs. COchrane. "How.
ever, I'll be listening at the ra-
did,"
The saddest man in the whole
town is Charley Hayes, proprietor
of small grocery store, where
1.-The Cochrane kid" hung out with
the boys. Charley isn't sad be-
cause the Tigers dropped the first
game but because he was unable
to make the trip to see his boy
in action in a world series. Hayes
watched Cochrane progress from a
lad to one of the nations greatest
catchers. The old mans heart
was broken when he lost a heap
of newspaper clippings on "the
kids" career in a fire at his store
"YOu know he had me in De.
trOit this summer and showed
me the greatest time 1 ever had
in my life," said Hayes. I'D like
to have gone to the series, but
you know it takes a heap of
money"
The theater in the square where
John Cochrane, "Mickey's" father
works. had its doors closed. Out
side is a sign:

TEN TEAMS
NROSTER
BY SID KATZNELL

With all the color that charac.
terizes an opening of a big league
baseball season, the American LIE.
gion Duckpin League will make
its debut on the Lucky Strike
mapleways tonight at 8 o'clock.
Ten teams will toe the mark
when the whistle is sounded.
James Roberts, commander Of
the local American Legion, will
roll the initial ball down the alley.
Roberts is a Staunch advocate
Of local amateur sports, and it
was mainly through his efforts
that the Legion Bowling League
has been organized.
Over on the RoSslyn drives at
the same hour, 16 couples will
roll in the Mixed Doubles loop.
Gait Davis, youthful originator
of the league, foresees a banner
year. He says:
"We should enjoy a much
better season because the
SUupACS SCCAl W UC AAVAS NASAS@
aiastic and times are consider.
ably better than last year."
Baker Breaks Record
Hy Baker, Of Lansburgh and
Bros, is the happiest man in
local bowling circles today. Last
night he established an al-time
record set of 439 in the Depart
ment Store League. His games
were 1874, $50 and 1876. Bakers
brilliant shooting aided his team
no little in capturing team high
game and set with 563 and 1888,
respectively.
Despite Paully Harrison's big
408 set, Arcadia dropped three
games to Columbia in the feature
attraction of the District League.
Occidental took King Pin into
camp for three games; Northeast
Temple won two from George
town and Convention Hall dropped
two to Center Market in other
league matches. Reds Megaw's

Well, he swung on one in De-
troit yesterday that your grand
children will ask you about
some time, and may help your
great grandchildren as well.
Schoolboy Rowe, the 21-year.
old Detroit protege, had been in
there working his heart out for
IL long innings and he pitched
like a MathewSon or a johnson
or, yes, even a Dean.
AS the game wore along he i'm.
proved until it seemed we would
all be there most of the night.
Inning after inning this fresh
faced young boy turned back the
Cardinals in order. I don't know
how many innings it happened,
because it happened yesterday
and today is another day.
But this I do know-it hap
pened so much that it became
monotonous and things got so
that it seemed the break in
the game would never come.
Not a One-Man Job
Rowe was striking those
Cardinals out one after another
or making them roll pitifully to
the infield. Defensively he was
the master of the game, but
the score was tied and Detroit
needed some offense which
wasn't forthcoming very rapidly.
This was not a one-man job.
It needed two.
Finally Goslin's chance ar.
rived. There it was, right out
there on first and second where
Tigers were tarrying.
He rubbed his hands in the
dirt. Spat viciously on them.

Walker, the shock-troop pitcher,

Walker had to offer and sud-

lever, swung his bludgeon, met

center and sent it Skittering out
over frankie Frisch's noggin for
the single which put Detroit in

Mickey Cochrane said on thu
eve of play:
"We've won our first game
and we won it a way that
has convinced us that we're the
better team. That first game
is out of our systems and now
you'll see the Tigers as Tigers"

'WE'VE GOT THE EDGE"
''We've got the edge this morn

because he was great, but be-
cause we fell down on a simple
play. Well not do anything
like that again."
The Medwick incident at the
home plate in Detroit yesterday
has famed the fires of com
petitive spirit. The Tigers say
Medwick went into the plate rid
ing high and almost cut Coch
rane's knee cap loose. The Cards
say Cochrane had it coming tt
him for blocking the home plate
as he did.
There is no doubt that Med
wick put everything he had into
the effort to score and Cochrane
certainly stood in the path, 6

The play on Medwick gave thu
Cards food for thought, and Mike
Gonzales reproached himself fol

"Eef we have one more heet,
Rowe, he ees out of the eSpOrt.
If we have Rowe out of there,
we ween the game and we ween

And that statement made ir
clear CaStilian accents mirrors the
sentiment of team and city. Sc
with both teams fired with conf

rage to the end.

KNIFE IN BRAIN,
PRISONER LIVES

NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-Joseph
Fatigate. 25-year-old prisoner in
the city penitentiary on Welfare
Island, is in a critical condition
with a wound received Tuesday
when the four-inch blade Of a
sharpened table knife was driven
into his forehead by an unknown
assailant.
The assault occurred in the
north wing of the prison and
Fatigate stumbled the length of
two cell blocks along the corridor
with the knife in his head, finally
encountering keeper, who walked
with him to the elevator in the
administration building, where he
collapsed.
Austin H. MacCormick, commits
sioner of correction, who was visit
ing the penitentiary, took charge
of an investigation. Since Fati-
gate was stabbed during a recrea-
ton period, when all prisoners
were walking in the corridors, and
the victim steadfastly denied that
he knew his assailant, Mr.. Mac
Cormick's initial questioning re-
vealed nothing.
Mr.. MacCormick reached the
prison hospital as Fatigate was
placed in a chair, after regaining
consciousness, and efforts were
made to remove the knife. AS
prison doctors pulled at the
weapon, which had been i'm
bedded to the hilt, Fatigate sat
quietly chatting and smoking a
cigarette.
The handle of the knife fl
nally broke off and FatigaLe was
taken to Correction Hospital,
where an operation was per
formed. It was discovered that
the blade took a down and left
ward course, passing through only
a small portion Of the brain. AL.
though his condition was critical,
physicians reported that under
the circumstances, things are
favorable"

TRIALS BY JURY.
DEFERRED

No jury trials will be held the
wek of November 6, election week,

cult Court at Upper Marlboro, it
was announced today.
The court will be in session,
however, to hear petitions and Or

The first weeks petit jury will
meet again Monday to hear the
criminal docket, while the second

month to hear four civil trials.
The delay in calling the last

who is % years his junior. Besides
a career as a mail clerk and mari.
ner, he has been a railroad engi-
neer and, in his own words, a
general excitement seeker"
Some Stirring Experiences
He served in the Post Office De-
partment for 35 years, and was
chief clerk in charge of railway
mail when retired.
Born in Germany, Mr.. Pitt ar
rived in the United States aboard
g sailing vessel when IL years old.
His first home. was in Baltimore.
AS a member of the crew Of the
Constitution, he was orderly to
the captain. He boarded the Con-
stitution in 1868 and remained
with the famous vessel until it
was decommissioned in 1879. From
that year he served aboard the
frigate Contocook until turning
to railroad engineering in the
'80's.
The greatest thrill of his life
or at least one of them-came
while he served aboard the latter
vessel, he declared today. He
raised the first United States flag
over Santo Domingo Island
shortly after President Grant had
bargained to establish a coaling
base there.
ReviSits Old Ship
Another thrill came to him only
two years ago when, in company
with Secretary of the Navy Claude
A. Swanson, he dined with the
captain Of the restored Constitu-
ton, then paying a call at the
port of Washington. He said:
81 got quite kick out Of ex-
planning the rigging of the old
ship to Secretary Swanson"
