Mickey Cochrane of the Tigers has ventured the prediction his blasters would outbomb the Bronx Bombers. Frankie Frisch of the Cardinals has been almost as opti- mistic in his remarks.
 The Tigers offer the American leagues champion hitter, runs batted-in leader and rookie hitting sensa tion of 1887.
 York Home Run King?
 The veteran Charles Gehringer topped the loop with his .371 hickory average. Hank Greenberg drove in 183 runs, more than any other play CT in either major league. Rudy York got a late start and then almost overlook DiMaggio in the home run derby. The husky recruit banged out 35 round -trippers and, on his mad march, toppled one of Babe Ruth's records by slamming out Is circuit clouts in a single month, August.
 Cochrane believes Gehringer and Greenberg will just about stick to their pace and that York will be the new home run champion.
 Medwick Vs. Mize
 The Cardinals possess the Na- tional leagues outstanding swat smith, another who treads on the leaders heels, and the rookie ace of the American. Association of 1887.
 Some say Joe Medwick is the most dangerous hitter in the game. He led the league in slugging, runs batted in, hits, runs scored, total bases and two baggers.
 And Medwick was only a short stride ahead of Johnny Mize in almost every hitting department. Frisch sees the possibility that Mize might even outslug Medwick. Mize was the only player to make home run in every park last season.
 The Cardinals have the left handed Medwick" to round out their threat-Enos Slaughter. He authored the high hitting mark of .382 to top the American Association last season. The Cardinals figure he'll hit major league pitching, although his average should fall considerably under his minor loop mark.
 Even Without DiMag
 As the season ocSned DiMaggio was holdout, lIJ Giuseppe was expected to sign shortly. He led both leagues in 1897 home runs, with 46. His 167 runs batted in were more than Medwick made to lead the senior loop
 Gehrig and Dickey. seasoned veterans, should hold up their end for the Yankees. !?
 After dozen years in the big show, Gehrig still remains one of the most feared of batsmen.

Ralph Reischl Bags Annual Wolf

Ralph Reischl always gets his wolf, Sometimes he gets it late in the year and sometimes early. This year, Ralph evidently scored late.
 At any rate, there was big black wolf in the back of Ralph's truck today, and without being able to ask Ralph where he got it, it might be safely guessed that it was taken anywhere from Eagle River to An mex Creek-Ralph's "trapline" is just about that long.

CASE BANS ;

BALTIMORE, Aug. 24.-Three
persons were ruled off the Mary

Of the commissions investigation
Of an alleged ringer case at
Pimlico, May Z.
They were M. r. Schwartz, OF
Cambridge, Md; Thomas Malone,
of New York, and James King, OF
Cleveland.
Schwartz was listed as the
owner Of Bye-Rye Will which won
the first race to pay a mutuel
price OF $3.50, $14.40 and $3.50
1t was the contention that Uallno
was substituted for Bye-Bye Will
in the race, run in the surprising
time of 1:3 2-5 for six furlongs.
Because of this surprising re
versal in the form of Bye-Bye Will
an investigation was ordered. DR.
william P. Collins, Washington
veterinarian, testified that the
horse Uallno, examined by him
recently in New York, was the
same animal examined by him at
Pimlico, as Bye-Bye Will. The
suspensions are effective in every

Makes Other Two Glasses

In the welterweight division
an active Armstrong replaces an
inactive and aging Barney Ross.
For at least two years every fan
in the country has known that
Barney was about ready to pack
it in.
Henry also has a first rate
and formidable challenger in
Ceferino Garcia, of whom Ross
already had had his fill, even
though he had outpointed him.
No other fighter in the welter
class has been affected by
Henry's rise. So that division
must be in better shape than 1t
was six months ago.
AS for the lightweight situa-
ton, if the rousing AmberS-
Armstrong match didn't set up
the most promising return
match that division has known
in many a moon, then we might

MYER STEPS IN
TO SAVE GRIFFS
FROM BROWNIES
Singles in Tenth and.
Twelfth Hell p
BY KIRK MILLER

The thousand or so baseball
fans who tarried at the ball park
yesterday ultimately saw fight
ing finish when the Griffmen
pulled a thrice-tied game out Of
the fire to win in the twelfth in
ming by s to 5.
1t was the mighty bludgeon Of
Buddy Myer which ultimately de-
cided the issue, he having been re-
Sponsible, in the role of pinch
hitter, for the single in the tenth
inning that tied the score at 5-an
and later for the safety in the
twelfth which scored Washington's
winning run.
Too, Washington's rookie
pitcher, Joe Krakauskas, must be
given a mite Of credit for the out
come, as he relieved Elon Hogsett.
who had rescued starting pitcher
Emil Leonard. Hogsett was getting
the daylight pounded out Of him
in the tenth when up comes Kra-
kauskas to strike out four Brown
les in two innings and otherwise
show them their proper place.
FEW EARNED RUNS
While the score shows that II
runs were counted, only four OF
them were legitimate, as the Griff-
men contributed 8 errors which
were costly and the Browns per-
petrated a pair. Travis, West and
Bluege were the culpable parties
on the Washington team while
Heath and Heffner were the
Brownies who didn't seem to care
whether or not school kept.
There was a pretty fair pitch
ing duel rampant between starters
Howard Mills and Dutch Leon
ard through three innings, but in
the fourth the young Brown hurler
blew up and Washington counted
with two runs. Then in the sixth
Leonard, who had pitched three
hit ball until then, became gen'
erous ana the Browns came
through with 3 runs, adding
another in the ninth.
Meanwhile Washington hadI
scored two in the eighth, so when
the regulation game was over, the
score was even at 4 runs each.
BOTH TALLY IN TENTH
Both clubs tailed in the tenth.
st. Louis's run came when Cntt
singled, taking second when West
muffed a ball. He was sacr1-
feed to third and scored when
Krakauskas pitched a single to
Heffner.
washington again locked up the
count in it's half on Vests triple
and Myers single.
"Zeke" Bonura showing great
spirit whether team was ahead or
behind, started the twelfth with
a single off Relief Pitcher Cole.
Wasdell ran for zeke and got to
second when Cliff, fielding Travis
bunt, threw late to second in an
attempted force play. With
Travis on first, West filled the
bases with a bunt past Cole-and
then came Buddy Myers winning
single, which would have been at
least a double had not the WIN
ming run already counted.

seems to intrigue every one who
watches me in action.
Incidentally, I copied that rush
ing, perpetual punching system
of mine from Davey Abad, a
game, vicious and for a long
time thoroughly capable Pana-
manian who appeared on the
West Coast. He was my first
hero-and among the first to
hand me a setback just when :.
seemed to be getting well under
way as a main-event fighter.
I had gone down into Mexico
City and dropped a close ana
questiona BILE decision to Baby
Arizmendi in 1884. While there
I encountered two brand-new
experiences. First the promoter
ran off with the money, then I
was taken i'll with some malady
brought on by the high altitude,
and put out Of commission for
more than a month,
LOSES AGAIN
I fought myself back into
shape when I was able to be up
and about again, and on New
Year Day, 1885, I was back in
Mexico City for a return match
with Arizmendi. This one was
even more vicious than our first
fight-Dut again he was given
a disputed decision. I always
have feia that I won both OF
those fights.
I say that with honest convic-
tion and subsequent meetings
would seem to bear 1t out. I
have beaten him twice in Cali
fornia, once a while back and
once very recently.
But long before getting around
to those second and third meet
ings with Arizmendi, I was 60

Armstrong probably could
