They top the Mst with 5,882, with those carrying the names of the mighty Walter Johnson seeond on the list with only 1,740.

While journeying to Boston for the final game of the world series the conversation turned to great play- ers of the past, says Malcolm Mes Lean, of the Chicago Post. Manager Mitchell, of the Cubs, recalled an in- cident regarding Ty Cobb that is il- lustrative of the Georgians quick thinking. 5 "It probably was the best play Ty ever pulled," said Mitchell. "I hap- pened to be catching that day again Detroit. Cobb reached third base af- ter two were gone, and I was afraid he might try to spring something on me, He did make a sudden move, and I whipped .the ball down. "Ty stuck to the base, "LaPorte, who got my throw, sauntered towdnrd our. pitcher. The latter had his back to the plate, and was chatting with LaPorte. LaPorte, as players unthinkingly do at times, tossed the ball up in his glove, about a foot or so, He did it again. Cobb was standing carelessly on third in the meantime. "The moment LaPorte tossed the ball for tne third time Cobb broke for the plate at top speed, I never saw anything sprung more sudden- ly. "Instantly there was shouting and confusion. 'I yelied for the ball, and LaPorte, startled, failed to see Cobb, and didn't know where the play should be made. By the time the ball finally reaclied me Cobb had slid in and was brushing the dust off his uniform. 1 call it the best play I ever saw him make." stantaneous thinking Cogg worked in an exhibition game against the Cubs a year or sp ago. He had singled to centre and halted at first base, He watched Williams pick up the ball and saw him casually cock his arm to throw it back. dn a flash he realized Williams was about to toss it rather than throw it bard, and immediately darted for second. He gol there about the time the ball reached Pete Kilduff, and slid safely, Blinded Soldier Plays Billiards. Though he has lost nis sight in the war, ex-Sergt.-Major Shawl, formerly of the Princess Patricia's, is said to play a marvelously good game at billiards. The London Daily Chronicle tells how Shawl has developed a new sense by means of which he locates the positions of the balls on the table and retains a clear mental picture of the varying movements. In making. sure of the position of the balls Shawl, the Chronicle says, plays around them with his fingers and is enabled by a growing cold- ness of the air to 'sense' how the {vories are placed, It is said he rarely makes a mistake, and can run up breaks of 10 or 12. Would Keep Ball Parks Closed. Several eastern ball magnates are preparing for a fight to keep the ball parks closed until 1920. These men seem to think that con- ditions after the war will be so un- settled that a resumption of basi: ness will . not 'pay. They cannot make themselves believe that ali of their players will be returned from France .and Itay in time to begin the pennant races with the usual prestige. Furthermore, these eiub owners have an idea t the public will not regard with {aver the play- ors who jumped into the : and munition plants last rather than go into the army. -------- es. 1 I | RDOING GOOD WORK. l amous bat and ball fund, - .
