George Kelly completing one of his home run swings and stretched out after a high throw at first base. George Kelly, young elongated first baseman of the New York Giants, seeks to become the Babe Ruth of the National league batters. Right in Babe's home town Kelly is keeping abreast of the Big Bambino in the matter of swatting the ball over the fence. Kelly collected four horn ruis in the first nine games the Giants played, which is a fair pace for any home run artist. Elmer Smith of the Indians and Bob Meusel, teammate of Babe's are giving Ruth a run for the homer honors in the American league.

SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND,

! Chips and Slips "It wi!l doubtless' be a novelty for Detroit baseball fans to have a look at some brainy ball playing, but that is what they ar? going to see this year." writes Bert Walker, sport writer for the Detroit Times, discussing the prospects of the Tigers. He sites the incident of last year when Cobb was sent to bat in the last inning with two men on base, the Tigers five runs behind and Ty Cobb was ordered to sacrifice. On that occasion the genius in the soul of Cobb revolted. He stepped out of the box several times and looked towards the bench with an appealing look, vainly hoping that he would get a flash that the signal had been changed, and that he could hit it out. It was the moment for a smashing attack If such a moment ever arrived in baseball. Cobb was at bat to obey orders', yet the orders were wrong. It was a situation like that which Byron versed about: "Theirs not to reason why. Theirs but to do and die, Noble Six Hundred." Cobb Reasons Why. But Cobb did reason why. He finally faked an excuse to go to the bench and talk it over and succeeded in getting the signal changed, went to the plate, banged out a hit that scored two men, later scored himself and lived to see enough of his fellows score in that inning to win the ball game. If all players were Cobbs ull baseball would be brainy. They are not, but Cobb is making his club a fast thinking one. He wants them to ask and know why a play is ordered, just as he warrted to know. A player who didn't think, in the ease quoted, would have car.ied out the order without protest, just as it was given by a manager who didn't think. Cobb Strategist The Tigers this year may "be beaten often, but it will be because of the foe's superior physical strength. In strategy there isn't a manager of the foe's superior physical strength. Cobb is the most brilliant player in the game and he can be expected to demise brilliant plays tor thf club he has in charge as he devised them for himself. It is said io be his policy not to bawl-out a player because of a physical error, but he will insist that his players do not make mental errors. Already he has shown that he wants "smart." baseball Cleveland fans were eiven a treat during i'ie recent series there when the two brainest players and managers in baseball matched wits. The champion Indians won the series under the leadership of Trls Speaker, but It was clearly demonstrated that Cobb was the master strategist. His rejuvenated recruit gave the champions a noble battle, and both teams and fans learned more of ihe inside of baseball than had been demonstrated to them in many a moon. A Fight Draws 'Em All. Harry Payne Whitney Is going to be in England for the international pole matches, going over in his own yacht. But ho plans to leave before the" final match if there is a third match and rush back across the ocean to see th Dempsey-Carpentier fight. Many othfr Americans who go to tho polo and ;iolf championships will hurry baclc for the big fight. Lu Blue or Donnie B'ish pulled on in the recent Cleveland-Detroit series. With Stephenson on first, O'Neill hit a fast roller to Blue, who stepped on first, retiring the batter; then he threw to second to get Stephenson. Bush did not or could not tag Stephenson as he slid in and he was safe, Mr. Blue having removed the force. If the Meusels should combine their home runs and either Bob or Emii get credit for all of them a Meusel would lead the world. On the day set for reporting 42 players showed up for trials with Josh Devore's Grand Rapids team. Josh had another score or so on his list to be brought on from time to time. And railroad rates what they are, too. John Evers, Jr., who boasts the distinction of being the young club owner in baseball, is even more proud of his present job of mascot for the Chicago Cubs. Even Junior owns a third interest in the Albany Eastern league clnh ! PHILADELPHIA HAS HOPES THAT BILL WILL TURN TIDE This photo of Bill Donovan was taken a few days ago. The general playing of the downtrodden Phillies so far this season, coupled with their auspicious debut in New York at the opening game, has caused Pbilly fans to hope for something besides a tail-end team this year. Donovan's men trounced the Giants in the opener.

Mene Feels Like Telling Yarns But Go Ahead, Read 'em Yourself

Br FRANK G. MF.XKK Larry McLean has passed along iuto the Great Beyond and left behind as a heritage to fandom a wealth of stories of his career on the ball field. McLean was one of the tallest and most ponderous men that ever stepped onto a ball field. But at heart he was ever a boy, with a boy's love of fun, a boy's iresponsibility and a boy's fearlessness of the consequence of any rrank. The climax act of Larry McLean's baseball career was typical of his. He hadn't been getting along very famously with John McGraw, boss of the Giants, because McGraw expected complete sobriety of him and Larry never could see how one little drink or mayhe two or three of them would harm him. "The next time you go on a toot you're red." McGraw warned the big catcher early in the 1014 season. Larry' remained on his behavior until the term hit St Louis. Then the lure of the bock beer siejis became too strong. He wandered into a refreshment parlor, some member of the Giant club saw him there and McGraw was informed. The next day McGraw fired him. Broods in Hotel. McLean sat in the Buckingham hotel brooding . about it. Dick Kinsella, scout of the Giants, hove into view. McLean jumped up, accused Kinsella of squealing on him. and before Dick could exude any denial, Larry picked him up and promptly tosted him into the fountain in the courtyard of the hotel. McGraw tried to interfere and as a reward for the Giant leader, McLean without a word, picked up McGraw and likewi&e tossed him into the fountain on top of the spluttering and thoroughly drenched Kinsella. McLean then loped away, jumped into a taxicab and never donned a big league uniform again. The youthful Jake Schaefer and the likewise youthful Welker Cochran are rivals in billiards and otherwise. Rarely in the history of the sport have two men, thrown together in each other's company, disliked the other quite so much. All of which brings one to this story: Some weeks ago the pair staged a wary combat. Schaefer jumped into an early lead, held it through two or three days and went into the final right's play with a comfortable margin. All along Schaefer had taken advantage of the opportunity to "razz" Cochran, and the remarks of Schaefer cut deeply into Cochran. But he said nothing, there being nothing to say, and merely bided his time. Cochran "blew" himself to a succession of sensational runs soon after the final nights play started, caught up v ith Schaefer, passed him and won 'he match with ease. After it was all over Schaefer, more or less dumbfounded, was fctandin.c talking to a friend. Cochran, putting on his hat and coat, walked 'past Schaefer and in a patronizing way that a teacher might use to a scholar, said: "Boy, you should be practicing at billiards instead of wasting your friend's time by talking to him." It wasn't much of a remark it carried no violent words but Schaefer Preparedness is good Btuff for the fellow who wants battery results. Willard Service helps a lot.

4 'vy X f' t ' v y ?x. Incentive, daughter AHce almost had to be restrained from throttling Cochran on the spot. Tom Gibbons took on Tony Melchor in Toledo. Tommy played around a little while with Melchor, then dropped him with a terrible right hand smash which seemed to double Melcher into 14 different knots. Melcher got up and Gibbons dropped him again. Out in the audience, near to the ring side, sat a red-faced Irishman who knew Jimmy Dime, manager of Melchor. As Melchor dropped the second time, the Irishman impulsively leaned over toward a friend sitting beside him and yelled above the tumult of the crowd "Hey, gimme your business card cuick." "What do you want it for?" asked the other. "I want to give it to Dime in case Gibbons hits Melchor again." So the fellow handed over his card, which advertised the fact that he was a first class undertaker and cmbalmer.

The Bankers defeat was largely due to the many errors they made. Both pitchers were touched up for four hits a piece, but the Bankers' slabman issued five passes that aided in the scoring and helped along by the many errors committed. The Item won the game in the first round on one hit. Smith, first man up, walked and Becker walked. Pickell singled and Bodie was hit by a pitched ball filling the bases. Smith scored on a pass ball and Pickell scored a minute later when Monroe mussed up Weaver's bounder. Brougher walked and Bodie and Brougher scored on pass balls. The Score.
