COVELESKIE’S DREAM BLASTED By FORD C. FRICK New York. Aug. 21.—Stanley Covel- I eskie's dream of a come-back is over. As the gray .shadows settled over I the Yankee stadium yesterday and al few hardy boseball perennials hu;.g i about the gates waiting for the game that couldn't be played, old man , Covey sat in front of his locker, his l I head in his hands. After a while he rose wea’lly to his | I feet, took a package of chewing tobac- | Ico from the locker shelf, and for a . | moment half fondled the dirty gray I uniform that hung listlessly from its | hook. < Then he closed the locker jdoor I .with a bang, shoved his cap jauntily I

across his eyes and turned with a ' I smile. "Well.” he said, "I guess I couldn't i do it, goodbye boys.” And tSjanley Covelesfcie (left the big leagues smiling—smiling as he smiled when he came in. For Stanley Coveleskie yesterday ended his Yankee cateer. He was given his unconditional release to make room for the new blood that | Miller Huggins feels is necessary to ' the winning of a pennant. , Today Tom Zachary, old and griz- ■ zled, too, will move into the locker ' that Covey vacated. Covey will be gone—but he won't | be forgotten. Silent, quiet, unassuming Covey! Never a word of alibi; never a word of condemnation. Just a grin from fate and a stolid acceptance of fact j as it came. He had hoped his arm would hold up. So had Huggins. They were wrong. The old iron arm |of another year was creaky and rusty. It wouldn't do. So Covey has j gone, and with him goes the best wishes of every man on the Yankee club. They liked Covey—liked him | sot what he was, and now they like I him even more with a liking that is ■ akin to admiration for the sportsmanship that could look fate in the eye. I take the buffeting as it eante and still i smile when he said goodbye—forever.
