New York.--Andy Coakley read the story about the best first base man having been pitchers--EEal Chase, BNl Terry, George sisler and Lou oehrig. It was Coach coakley who switched 0ehrig from the box to first base at Columbia.
 "And you might add " Cobb's name to the list of pitchers who turned to first baslng," says Coax. ley of the old Athletics. "Yes, sir, Cobb pitched and he liked to play first base, which, incidentally, he did very well. He preferred first base because he wanted to be in the thick of things. There was not nearly enough activity for him tn the outiield. Perhaps that was one of the reasons why he made up lost time at bat and on the bases"
 It was during the earlier part of his illustrious career that Cobb wanted to pitch, imagined himself another Addle Joss. He always threw Q few to the Detrolts in bat ting practice.
 It was Coakley who had the pitching idea knocked out of his head.
 Coakley had semi-professional club in Paterson, N. J., in 1910, and there being no Sunday baseball In New York at the time, Cobb used to get away to play with 1t when the Tigers were in the neighhor- hood.
 Cobb played first base In these side games, and when the Paterson hurler was belted from the premises in the middle of this particular con. test. Coakley teside to give the Georgia Peach an opportunity to satisfy his unsuitable desire to pitch.
 Cobb experienced no little difii- culty in getting the other side out, was seeking help as four runs clat- tered across the plate, but coakley was looking the other way. He enjoyed seeing Cobb take it for a change.
 Tyrus Raymond returned to first base the following inning, never to talk pitching again.
 Patersons were booked at the old Hollywood Horse Show 0rounds at Long Branch. The field was iumpy. Cobb complained about playing conditions, told Coakley not to expect him to do any baserun- ming.

The Age-old Yearning to own a winning race horse Is only exceeded by the desire to be the breeder and owner of Q good race horse. This is proved in the case of two of the most recent ''Cinderella" horses of the turf. First was Alsah, the @700, auction ring bargain which Albert Sabath had knocked down to him at Saratoga several years ago. The horse, Alsab. went on to garner a small fortune and an enormous rep tuition. Last Fall owner Sabath pur- chased a breeding farm In Ken lucky for the purpose of raising his own racing stock.

BY NORMAN A. KAHL.

Meat prices in local chain
stores will increase about 20 per
cent May II, it appeared last
night, as a result of the revised
schedule of dollars -and-cents
ceilings on beef, veal, lamb and
mutton, issued yesterday by the
Office of Price Administration.
At the same time, prices in many
smaller stores probably will have
to be reduced to bring them in line
with the new ceilings. The schedule
OF prices announced yesterday re-
places standardized ceilings which
were to have become effective April
Is, but which were postponed for
reconsideration after President
Roosevelt's order to hold the line"
against imitation. The new maxi
mum prices are from l to 3 cents a
pound less than those set up in
the previous order.
This is the first increase in price
ceilings directly affecting the con-
sumer since the Presidents anti
imitation order. The new schedule
of prices was approved by Econom-
ic Sterilization Director Byrnes.
