1t is doubtful if any women's match

bitterly contested as the one Miss Ellis
played yesterday with Mary Cootes.

Cootes played IS games in their three

THE scrappy Tiger leader came on
from Boston University to Connie
Mack's Athletics. He was one Of the
best all-around athletes Boston U.
ever knew. At Philadelphia he took
his place as the star catcher of base
ball for all time At Detroit he added
the elements Of leadership to his base
ball skill and he included with this
the finest spirit have yet seen on a
ball field
It was the most tragic accident that
big league base ball has known since
Chapman's death and it will have an
even deeper effect on the American
League race.
There is little doubt that Cochrane
lost the ball in its fast moving flight.
He first fell back and intuitively knew
that he might still be in the road. So
his right arm went up for protection,
but Hadley's fast one sailed just an
inch or 50 too high. and, as it landed
squarely on the temple, 1t sounded
like an explosion at the plate.

TT SEEMS you cannot yell wolff"
to even boxing commission more
than once or twice and expect to
4 get tumble. The District ring
pappies, affecting monumental bore
dom, pigeonholed the latest "bribe"
the other day and at press time they
were hoping the tom-tom beaters for
the annual police show will think up
something better.
Somebody, you know, sent Boxer
Lou Gevinson note offering him
$4,000 to throw" his fight to one
Johnny Pena, whom he will meet in
one Of the scheduled 1O-round bouts a
week from today at Griffith Stadium.
1t was silly, Of course, and obviously
a phoney for any number OF reasons
-. chief among them being the of1er
Of $4,000. According to the "bribe." I"
a betting coup is supposed to make it
worth that kind Of dough to the boys,
and if anything ever has been over
rated in this town it has been the
do-re-mi wagered on boxing bouts.
In the past. however, the District
Boxing Commission has hoped upon
such things with alacrity. The time
King Levinsky's manager prophesied
dirty decision deal for his stumble
bum is recalled and there was that
business OF frankie Blair, or somebody
yelling "police!" and attracting at
tention. Either this Gevinson- -Pena
business was too ludicrous or the ring
moguls are getting too smart, but at
any rate nobody Is batting an eyelash.
This department, without
knowing too much about 1t, is
wondering II some better fate
couldn't have befallen the local
cops, who hope to receive . siz-
able sum to turn over to the
widows and orphans fund.
The "bribe" not only is an obvious
publicity attempt, but very bad one.
1t has done boxing no good, generally,
and, further, it has served to cheaper
the forthcoming show. In short, it
can't be much Of card by even pro-
motorial estimates If they have to
stoop to this sort Of thing, as suspected.
