This old war is responsible for a lot of things. In World Of Sport HR Baseball Briefs | It seems strange fo see that De- troit club trailing. The pitching is not the best, but with a club so strong in other departments this weakness should not make such a difference. « Miller Huggins » says that Joe Fin- neran was the smartest pitcher in the American Association last sea- son, and he believes that Joe will pitch good ball for the Yankees. Outfielder Jack Graney is another of the Cleveland cripples who is al- most ready to return to duty. When he gets back Joe Wood will draw a vacation or he may be tried out at first base. Clyde Milan is batting in the clean-up position for the Senators. in other seasons Milan usually bat- ted nearer to the top. The Tigers have recalled Outfield- er Flagstead, who was with the team the Southern League. The punch of the Cleveland <¢lub centres around Chapman and Speak- er, batting in second and third po- last season and let out this spring to sitions. With these players out of thé way the club does very formidable. Clarence Rowland is trying hard | to find two boxmen to replace Faber and Williams, but he has a most dif- | ficult task on his hands. Joe Gedeon has established him- self as regular second sacker of the | St. Louis Browns. Pete Johns was a rival for the place, but Gedeon won | out. ] Joe Jackson, who is painting shps | at Wilmington, Del., says he will| never return to baseball. Max Carey, of the Pirates, classes with the best centrefielders in base- ball. Jack Hendricks has a likely look- | ing young pitcher in Bill Sherdell, | a slightly built southpaw | Good idea to have star players in | the army come back to their clubs | now and then when furloughs are] granted.. i When Bill Killefer, of the Cubs, | joins the army Bob O'Farrell will do most of the catching. Jack Hendricks entered the Polo Grounds Jast week for the first time since John MoGraw released him more than fifteen years ago. Hen- dricks was a Giant outfielder in those days. The Washington club is having a slump after making a spurt early in the season whieh led, the fans to believe, that Griffith's team was in the tight for the pennant. Clifford ~Heathcote, recently re- turned to the Cardinals by the Hous ton club of the Texas League, ap- pears to bevery weak with the stick. Harry Gasper, former Cincinnati pitcher, has just retired from base- ball after sixteen years of service. His farewell performance as a mem- ber of the St. Joseph club was a 1 to 0 victory over Joplin. Gene Paulette, since the Giants tried him several years ago, has de- veloped into a crack first baseman for St. Louis. He bats from either side of the plate and is very fast on the bases. It is a peculiar fact that, as a rule, when the Reds make a lot of hits they are beaten, while a majority of their victories are scored on just a few blows. Kopf of the Athletics established himself as a real speed marvel be- fore leaving to join the colors a few days ago. He was in the fight for base running honors with tén steals. With Marty Kavanagh in the Nt- tional League, Nick Altrock now has an undisputed claim as the Adonis of the American League. They were bitter rivals in the matter of pulchri- tude. Girl Athlete Beats Boys. Lenore Aitken, aged fifteen, is the champion. athlete of McKeough School, Chatham, this year, and at the annual sports won the James Brackin medal for highest scores. She had 55 points, Max Tyrell had 44 points and Ivy Biddell and Glenn Jackson were even at 33 for third place, The honor of winning the medal is keenly contested. This is the second time it has been won by a girl, not appear | a It Tends to Make Better Employees of Munition Workers, Word comes from England that munition-manufacturing firms which promote games among their em- ployees will be repaid out of the ex- cess profits tax for all money so spent, under an order of the Health and Welfare Department of the Min- istry of Munitions, Experience has shown that the output of munitions ia best at factories where games are played freely by the workers during the spare hours each day. Thousands of women and girls in : munition works have taken up football and lawn tennis, and the competition has been keen. The Same Old Method. ] Fred Mitchell is doing with the Chicago Cubs just what he and George Stallings did with the Boston Braves in 1914. He has built a vet- eran club around a great shortstop, and has three great pitchers working with a great catcher. In 1914 the Braves built around Maranville. Evers, of course, got a lot of credit, but Maranville was the keystone of the club's defence. Just as Maran- ville was the star of the Braves, so Hollocher, the Chicago shortstop, is the star of the Cubs. He has more than made good all the nice things that were said about him when he came up, Mechanical Perfection There are many reasons why the AnoStrop is the ideal aviator's razr, but one stands out more prominently than the others md will instantly appeal to every of the Air", that is, its perfection knows and appreciates Toronto Takes to Cricket, England's national game, which owes its popularity to the fact that a man is never too old to play and the young can commence to play 4s soon as the are "knee high to a grasshop- per," is going through a rejuvenation period in Tagronto at present.
