DID YOU KNOW THAT

The league leading elders are apt
To have plenty to worry about when
they meet the second place Gins
this Friday night in the start Of
the third series. The Gins have
been riding high lately, so high In
fact that, according to figures up
TO the present writing they are the
only team In the league averaging
better than 1903 per man. The
elders are averaging better than 1902
per man. To be exact the Gins
are 1880 pins ahead Of the elders
on o total pinfall basis and the
figures are as follows: Gins 2l735
and elders 2l596. This column
predicts at least q two game victory
for the Gins The Cognac a.
500, WHISTLES l,496 and the Cham
pagnes 81 ,487 also are averaging
better than 102 per man At
tendance last week was 100 per

understand the fall OF the Cham
pagnes. Just one series ago they
were battling for the leadership /. i.
The closest race for high average
Is now conferred In the first divi-
sion. Jack Slattery leads with
111.26. Harry Conway Is next with
l11.23, only . pins, behind. Harry

Beverage League
Notes

Although the elders started off
bit shaky In their match. with the
Champagnes last Friday night at
the A. B. G. alleys, they managed
TO finish up strong and came
through with a 81 victory. Doc
Hayes was in form for the league
leaders and led them with a 1876
while Art Kennedy had a 1924. Greg
DRY had 327 for the Shampagnes
followed by Johnson's 326.
The Gins duplicated the elders
performance and did 1t In exactly
the same way as they took two away
from the Wines. After losing the
first game In which they only rolled
400, not one of their men hitting
400, they came back with VEN
geance and rolled 528 and 500 to
take the last two games with ease.
Mike DAILY was brilliant for the
Gins with O 352 triple. Murray 1886
and Conway 1871 divided honors for
the Wines.
Dick Whites 1853 led the Cognacs
TO two-game victory over the Beers
In a very close match. In addi-
ton, Stafstrom had $40 for the
"Cogs". Johnny Nelson's $3.50 was
high for the Beers and his splen-
did 1876 third game was really re-
sponsible for his teams only win.
Other scores were not particularly
high. but the games were very In
teresting.
The Brandies certainly surprised
the WHISTLES as they won all three
games from the picked team. or
course, the Whistles were away off
form, their unexpected 1895 being
by far their lowest three game total
OF the season. They produced only
one game Of over 100 all night and
that was Jack Slattery's 1873 In the
second game. Little wonder that
they were completely whitewashed.
Little Tommy Gordon $50 and Mon
tory 3l3 led the Brandies while
Slattery's 3i0 was high for the
WHISTLES.

George Coffmdn
Rookie Star
By PAT ROBINSON

international News Service Sports Writer
NEW YORK, May 22.-Mana-
gers with sufficient nerve to give
young rookie pitchers starting as
Signments are having their faith
justified in the majors almost
every day.
Not the least of these gambling
managers is Mickey Cochrane Of
the Tigers. The other day he
took the blankets off George Gill,
rookie from Beaumont, Texas,
and the young man justified his
managers confidence in him by
winning.
And yesterday Mickey uncov-
cred another winner and poten-
tial star in George Coffman, a
brother of Dick Coffman, the
former Brownie, and also a prod
uct of Beaumont, which, inciden-
tally, is the town that sent Carl
Hubbell to the Giants.
Travels II Heats
Coffman had to travel II heats
to get a 4 to 2 decision over old
Lefty Grove of the Red Sox but
over that stretch he gave only
eight hits and showed enough
stuff to make critics believe he
viii be a consistent winner.
This will be sad news to some
Of the other managers who had
fondly hoped Cochrane wouldn't
have enough pitching to carry
him Through this year.
Another rookie, George Caster
Of the astonishing Athletics, con-
tinued his winning ways by hold
ing the White Sox to four hits,
the AS coping, 4 to 3.
Lou Gehrig'S homer put the
Yanks off in front but they had to
travel II frames to get 4 to 8
verdict over the Browns who have
now dropped their last five games
by one run.
Indians Hold Post
The Indians held their post at
the top by trimming the still shaky
Senators, 7 to s.
Apparently it is the Giants sad
fate to be fed a steady diet of
Southpaws this season, and so far
they have found them unpalatable.
They drew Clyde ShoUn yester-
day, got but six hits and lost to
the Cubs, 8 to S. Little Dick Bar
tell continued far ahead of the
home run derby with his 10th
circuit clout.
The Reds STAYED off defeat in
the ninth on a great catch by Lew
Riggs and beat the PhilS, 6 to s..
The defeat dropped the Phils into
the cellar, to which they've long
been accustomed.
The Braves made the race a
little tighter by trimming the
Pirates 6-3 behind Danny Mac
Fayden's fine pitching and the
Cards slaughtered the Dodgers,
II to 2.
