Harry Coveleskie, Star Southpaw of Tigers, Forgot Himself in Recent Cleveland Game. If there is any one person who Is pulling with might and main for Stanley Coveleskie to make good as an Indian, it Is Brother Harry, the star southpaw of the Tigers. Harry was sitting on the Detroit bench when Brother Stan was mowing down the Tigers in a recent conflict. It was In the fourth inning and Cobb was on first with none out and Bobby Veach at bat. “Atta boy, Stan, atta boy. Guess that brother of mine hasn’t got something,” he yelled as Veach fouled to Turner. “That’s it, Stan. You’ve got his number,” he muttered as Sam Crawford hit a roller to Howard; forcing Cobb at second. , “Say, Harry, if you are going to root for Cleveland, go over on the’Cleveland bench,” shouted Oscar Vltt. Brother Harry was dazed for a minute. He had forgotten Brother Stan was agalrfst his own team. “Say, fellows, I clean forgot,” he said sheepishly and then he yelled as Hellmann went to bat: “Hit it outa th’ lot, Harry. That busher ain’t got a thing but a prayer.” . “It sure was funny,” said Trainer Harry Tuthill of Detroit in relating the incident.
