Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, May 30.—Obviously the loss of Hal Carlson by death adds nothing to the chances of the Cubs in the current scramble for the National League championship. While he did not rank with the great pitchers of his day he was nevertheless a dependable gent to have around and more than one fence buster has swung in vain a* that fast darting curve he had a habit of using in the pinches. m m m Ten heavy ftnritn to repeat their sneren of !at reason, it now begins to appear as if the Cobs will hare a tough time fighting back the apportion. The fates hare Sealth none too rraelonslr with them this rear. At various times Hornsby. Bell. Bosh and Stephenson bare been oot of the lineup—and now Carlson, one of the team's winning pitchers, is pone forever. nan GENTLEMEN WHO MAKE BOOK ON BUCH VITAL THINGS RATED THE CUBS AN EVEN MONEY BET BEFORE THE BEASON STARTED. THERE ARE VERY FEW EVEN MONEY BETS IN BASEBALL WHERE THE SCHEDULE RUNS FROM APRIL TO OCTOBER AND A PLAGUE OF MISFORTUNE CAN WITHER FIVE OF YOUR STARS BEFORE EVEN THE QUARTER POLE HAS BEEN REACHED. a a a T SEE by the papers that Milwau--1 kee is to witness its first championship fight. Mr. Benny Bass is ruing out there to defend his junior lightweight crown on June 9 or 10 His opponent will be none other than Mr. Eddie Anderson who seems to have taken on anew flush of activity. a a a It Is Interesting to read thst this Is to be a return betwen the two T ounr sarayes. In their first meeting which, singularly, also was held in Milwaukee. Mr. Bass knocked Mr. Anderson down seven times and in turn was knocked down three times himself, making a total of ten, or three above par for the course. a a a NATURALLY THE CUSTOMERS WEPF MOVED TO SUCH FLIGHTS OF HYSTERIA BY THIS SPECTACULAR PERFORMANCE THAT NO SOONER HAD THE LITTLE BULLDOGS DRAGGED THEIR ACHTNO BODIES TO THE'TRAIN THAN A CITY-WIDE CLAMOR WAS SOUNDED FOR THr T R RETURN. a a a Magnanimously the rival managers consented, nvi as a concequence tho two panther are coming beck for v > , money and Milwaukee is to its first championship ring batt’e. a a a THIS one to be Just swe’l and I do hone liti able to se~ it. It isn’t often that you find two young gents so sunerblv gifted in the subtleties of nlay acting as t v “' junior lightw'e'ght. champion ?.r J his current rhnlteuerer. What T mean, boy. is that they ran rmfc on, and I ha c ten to add, with r flash of originality, like nobody’s business. a a a Certainty verv few of our ring Ihespianf ever pave a more finished simulation of grogginess aid fehtirp foe than d*d Mr. Bass In the fi-s‘. round of h ! s title-winni—-effort arainst Mr. Tod Morgan in the Garden some months baek. It is true that Mr. Morgan ultimately carried off tho evening's honors in point of artistry, his eol'apse In mid rinr at the preiemoment being terhnically flawless, but even so It wss r-ot necessary to mak" apoloptes for Mr. Bess.. He did all ripht. a a a Os course If the bovs’ become temperamental out in Milwaukee and try to outset each other, there can ie but one ending. Mr. Anderson is absolutely In a class by hims-ls when it comes to interpreting the more tragic phases of the business. He puts on a knockdown for you that Is a knockdown and a mighty fine thing about Mr. Anderson Is that he’ll give you as many as you want. a a a ir FORGET how many Anderson X gave the customers out west or.e night in a fmht I saw him make against Pets Sarmiento. I believe Mr. Frank Churchill had Pete at the time. I'm sure h p had Merge n when Mr. Bass won the chaimponship. And it seems to me the I heard of Mr. Churchill was that he was do’ng some sort of business for Camera in California. a a a It annears that Mr. Churchill Is a jealous lover of the drama and I am told there Is nothing th’t warms the rookies of his old heart more than a good smashing one-ni-ht pe*form-nee between a counle of artists vho no* only can take It, but know when to and when not to. ana IT WILL BE A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT TO ME IF I GO OUT TO MILWAUKEE TO SEE MR. BASS AND MR. ANDERSON CO THROUGH THEIR FASCINATING ROUTINE AND MR. CHURCHILL IS NOT AIONG TO FEED HIS ATTHETTC SENSES.

The Koosiers made their first appearance of the season here Thursday and got badly bumped, the Hens scoring a 4 to 0 shutout. Claude Jonnard was wild and his team failed to hit when safeties meant runs. He dropped out for a pinch hitter in the seventh and Walter Wolf finished in good form. Pitcher Injured McQuillan, Hen starting hurler, was injured in the second inning and compelled to retire from action. A hot smash off the bat of Howard Freigau struck the pitcher on the gloved hand and caused a bad bruise. Rabb went to the rescue and turned in a fine brand of hurling the remainder of the afternoon. Jonnard was solved for six hits in six innings and issued six passes. Wolf was a puzzle the two stanzas he operated. Toledo made its half dozen hits count by rapping the sphere in the pinches. Clarence Hoffman got two of the Tribe hits. Swanson of the Hens doubled with the bases filled in the third to score two mates.
