HANK O'DAY TELLS OF HEAVY HITTING

Philadelphia, Pa., May 18. Hank O'Day, the veteran National league umpire and looked upon as the peer of umpires in the business today declared that the heavy hitting in the big leagues it not due to the new cork center ball but it directly due to ,the poor work of the pitchers. When shown the dispatch from Chicago saying the new ball would be modified to make it deader Hank said: "What do they want? Before, the cry was against pitchers' battles; now there is too much hitting. The fault lies entirely with the pitchers. I don't remember in many years of experience a period when the pitchers were so much 'off' as they are this year. "Th ball has nothing at all to do with It. Why should Jt ? It is the same ball

used by both sides. there are some

clubs batting stronger than the rest

that is all. When the home team is

hitting, fine and dandy. When the other side does the same, then comes the kick. The ball is all right." George Reach, son of A, J. Reach, maker of the cork center ball at present used by tha big leagues, today de

nied that anything will be done to

deaden the ball.

EXPECT BIG

CROWD AT GAME

(Special to The Times.) Crown Point, Ind., May 18. Man

ager Kelser of the Crown Point base

ball team expects a record-breaking

crowd in the first league game with Indiana Harbor at the local grounds

next Sunday. ,

The Harbor crowd will come down

on a special train strong and will have

a band to liven things up.

Pete Henning will be in the box for

the locals and is expected to twist the Harbor pennant winning hopes into a double tight bowknot as far as next

Sunday's game is concerned. ,

If Hammond succeeds in putting the skids under East Chicago next Sunday and Crown Point can perform the same operation on the Harbor team, it will leave the local club at the head of the percentage column.

er's suspension may or may not have

been responsible ' for Chicago's defeat in a one run battle at the finish of the Cub-Infant series yesterday. The only thing certain is that one of Dave Shean's errors was responsible for the tally by which the Dahlenites won the game, 1 to 0. Whether or not the Cubs could have won with Tinker in the lineup is another question. Jot they had to score to win, and came nowhere near it at any time. Richie and Bell were hooked up in this o. f. pitching duel and on their own performance they had pretty nearly an even break. Each hurler was touched for three scattered singles ad each man struck out two opponents. Bell had a little the better of it In stinginess for he gave only one pass, but the question of liberality cut absolutely no figure In the result. Bell's support was superfine all the way while three errors were made behind Lew Slivers, and one of these
