Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK. May 27. I was punching the hag, or barbering, as the boys say, with Gordon Stanley Cochrane, otherwise Mickey, the great catcher of the Philadelphia Athletics. Cochrane does not profess to be unduly disturbed because the Athletics are not on top at the current writing and making a runaway race of the championship as many critics predicted. “We are still the class of the league,” he maintains, “and as soon as our pitching develops more conconsistency, we will be up there where we belong.” a a a Cochran* refuses to belter* that Washington Will continue its surprisin* xait a *reat deal lonxer. "It Is lust a fair ball rlob. blessed with some eood spring pitching and a fixhtine spirit that roar not last once the breaks start to to acainst the boys. "The Yanks have more power than any of our competitors and I am betinnint to belie to they are the team we will have to beat araln this vear. though I didn't think so earlier In the seaaon. Cary looks as If he will do at short, so It will not make much difference how lont Koenig is out. Chapman is a real third baseman, one of tbe best of the newcomers.” a a a WE got to talking about speed I pitchers. It is generally agreed that the two speediest pitchers in the American League are Grove and Earnshaw. both on the Athletics' staff. It is. Cochrane’s business to catch these two gents regularly and naturally he should know which is the speedier. ana On this point there is a diversity of opinion around the circuit. A surprisingly big number of rival batters claim Earnshaw can throw a ball fasten than Orove who has been generally looked upon as Walter Johnson's successor. aa “I room with Earnshaw.” said Cochrane, and he is my pal. but I don't think he carries the speed Grose does. Not over a full game anvway. When he Is right. Grove burns that ball into my mitt with as much power behind it In the ninth inning as in the first, and I think that is the only logical bi* on which the question of relative speed can be determined. 0 0 0 HOWEVER, Cochrane said that when it came to a combination of speed and curves. Earnshaw is the best in the league. “He is one speed ball pitcher who can throw a really fine curve. In fact, I think his curve is the best in the league. ’ 0 0 It is a curious fact that not many speed ball pitchers have had effective eurve balls. Dairy Vance of the Brooklyn* Is an exception. Johnson, perhaps the greatest of all speed baU pitchers, never had a curve of any importance. 000 "I remember when Johnson was pitching ” said Cochrane, "we would always lav back and wait for his curve He had a routine of saving his ctirve until he had two strikes on you. In such a situation he invariably would come across with his curve —and how sweet it was to bat against!" 0 0 0 Cochrane revealed that it was a part or Connie Mack's sirategv to have his men take two strikes on Johnson in order to lure him into using his curve. 0 0 THE conversation drifted back to the world series and Mack’s astonishing move in sending Ehmke out to pitch the opening game against the Cubs. It has been previously disclosed in this department that only three men knew Ehmke was going to pitch at noon on the day of the game—Maok, Eddie Collins and the pitcher himself. 000 “I didn’t even believe he was going to pitch when he sUrted to warm up.” said Cochrane. “I went over to the dugout where Connie was sitting and asked who was going to start. Connie motioned with his thumb to Ehmke and said: ‘He Is. is it all right with you?’ 0 0 0 *'l still thought he was pulling a gag of some sort and laughed, 'if he s all right .with you. Connie, he s ail right with me.' ” Irish Lose on Home Diamond P NOTRE ' dAME.

4 Yankee Stars Win Other Tilts Von Elm, Ouimet and MacKenzie Gain Third Round; Voight Wins. Bu United Press . , ~ ST. ANDREWS, Scotland. May 27.—America’s thrust at the British amateur golf championship received two severe setbacks today when Don K. Moe and Dr. O. F. Willing, both of Portland, Ore., were eliminated, while their compatriots, George Von Elm of Detroit, Roland MacKenzie of Wilmington, Del.; Francis Ouimet of Boston and George Voigt of New York were winning. Bobby Jones, United States open champion, and Harrison Johnston, United States amateur champion, were not scheduled to play today, but six other members of the Walker Cup team and eleven less known American players tested their skill against British opponents. The first important American defeat was scored today when W. Spark, a Briton, eliminated Dr. O. F. Willing of Portland, Ore., in a second round match by a score of 2 and 1. There were three thinjs wTong with Willing’s game. He was consistently short with his putter, too strong with his shorter irons *and his drives often went into bunkers. Von Elm Triumphs Meanwhile, George Von Elm of Detroit was scoring a 4 and 2 victory over Dr. H. Gardiner Hill of the Royal and Ancient Club, St. Andrews. Francis Ouimet of Boston took it easy and defeated Joshua Crane of Brookline, Mass., in a secondround match, 5 and 4. It was the first meeting of two Americans. Roland Mackenzie of Wilmington, Del., another Walker cup player, advanced to the second round on default by H. M. Cairnes, Great Britain. George Voigt of New York scored an easy 6 and 4 victory over J. R. A. St. Royan of Sunningdale, England, in a third-round match, the others having been in the second. Dark Horse Wins F. C. Stevens of Hollywood, Cal., whom experts have picked as tX “dark horse,” won over F. P. McConnell, Briton, 5 and 4. Don K. Moe of Portland, Ore., youngest cup team member, was beaten by Rex Hartley, ranking British star, 3 and 2, in a thrilling match. Among the lesser known American entrants, E. H.

Archibald, Great Britain, 4 and 3; Charles Sweeney of New York lost to H. M. Bray, 3 and 2; Frank Sweeney, New York, defeated J. B. Beck, 4 and 3, and J. McCredie defeated Howard C.

Consequently, he is a new player out there on first base. “Rice, who thought about quitting the game a couple of years ago, is, now experiencing his best year in baseball. He is leading the league in batting and stolen bases, and is making wonderful plays in/the outfield.” Rice is batting .414 and Judge is batting .347. But it’s the pitching staff which really brings a smile to Old Barney’s brow when he starts talking about his four young stars, Lloyd Brown, Bob Burke, Irving Hadley and Ad Liska, and his four other seasoned regulars, Sam Jones, Fred Marberry, Garland Braxton and Myles Thomas. Johrtson said he thought Brooklyn had a splendid chance to win in the National League. “I think the world of Uncle Wilbert Robinson,” said Johnson, “and from all I can understand Brooklyn has the team to win thfe pennant if they do not lest confidence.

Tribe Hits Fall Short in Pinches Fifteen Safeties Get Indians Only Five Runs; Senators Near Top. Bu Times Special COLUMBUS, 0., May 27.—A n#w leader is looming in the American Association race and Columbus fans think their Senators are “it.” The defeat of the Indians in the series opener Monday, 7 to 5, marked three victories in four,starts against the Corriden crew this season and placed Nemo Leiboid’s pastimers within two games of the top. The Tribesmen got fifteen hits, enough to win in a romp, but not many of the safeties were timely and the Senators triumphed on eleven hits and a flock of walks. Oral Hildebrand, former Butler collegian, started his first game for the Tribe and was knocked out in the fourth, Walter Wolf relieved and Lee Daney finished. Lee turned in the b°st job. Two Senator Hurlers Larry Winters received credit for the Columbus win, though it was necessary to use Frank Miller late .n the fracas to halt an Indian drive. A three-run lead established by the visitors was battered down in the third when the Senators collected four markers, and in the fourth the locals pasted the sphere for three more tallies. The Columbus run total remained at seven while the Hoosiers added two to fall short for the day. Monahan poled four hits in a row for a perfect day and one of his clouts went over the fence for a home run. Buck Crouse also starred at bat with three blows, one a triple. Purdy and McCann were best for the winners. Warstler Stopped Shortstop Warstler of the Indians went hitless, the first time since April 30. The lad got one or more hits in nineteen consecutive games before being stopped here by Winters and Miller. Two more contests remain in the series, today and Wednesday, after which the Indians will go to Toledo for a single tilt Thursday and two games Friday, Decoration day. The Corridenites will begin a long stay at home Saturday. MELDONS DROP CLOSE TILT CONNERSVILLE. Ind., May 27.
