George Washington Lee, a California born Chinese boy. returned to this city yesterday on the 6tamer Nanking from China, where he holds the bantam and lightweight championships.

NEW YORK, April 18 Several managers of eastern teams in the big leagues were thanking the weather man today for having interfered yesterday afternoon with their scheduled
games .and making it possible for them to play the postponed gamed later in the season when the teams will have reached championship form. Miller Huggins, man'ager of the Yankees, was especially pleased as his club seemed in for a beating at Boston when a northeaster broke over the city tnd stopped proceedings. The day was not lost to the Yankees, however, as they completed arrangements for the purchase of "Whitey" Witt, of the Athletics, who was expected today to be assigned to the right field berth. This section of the field has been weakened by the absence of Bob Meusel, who with Babe Ruth, was suspended until May 20 Witt hits In the aristocratic 300 class and can play the infield acceptably. The best pitchers' battle of the year
occurred yesterday in Clncinnstl where the Pirates shut out the Red3 1 to 0. Morrison of Pittsburg held the Red3 to four hits, Luque being hit for seven by the Buccaneers. The St. Louis Cardinals tasted dofeat for the first time this season when the Cubs beat them 7 to 6, driving Doak from the box. Washington was victor in a weird game with the Athletics.

DETAILS, DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GENIUS AND DUB, IS PROVED OUT
CINCINNATI, April 18. Johnny Morrison hurled a mean curve ball over the outside corner of the plate
Monday afternoon, and the Reds suffered thei.- first shutout of the season. Luque pitched nearly as well except in one fatal round, the fifth when the enemy bunched three clean singles off his delivery for one tally. It was a hard game for the Cuban to lose. The Reds had a big chance in the sixth but the breaks against them. Pinelli led off with a wicked drive over third which struck the bag and stuck, or it might have been good
for two bases. Wingo flied to CareyJ
and Luque sent a long fly to Carey, who had a chance to get under it but failed and Pinelli was only able to reach third and Luque second. Burns hit to Maranville and got Pinelli at the plate and Neale lined to Tierney for the third out. After these two rounds neither team had a chance to score both hurlers pitching great ball and the support being very good. The score: Cincinnati.

By FRAXK U. MEXKE Once upon a time a sage remarked: "The only difference between a geniU3 and a dub is that a genius
gives intimate attention to details." All of which means that sometimes it's only the slightest defect the slightest failure to watch details which keeps men from greatness. Stanley Coveleskie knows. Back in 1916 when the big Pole re
ported to the Indians he was preceded by a double-barreled reputation; one for wildness and another for speed and baseball cunning. He was shooed off to the spring training camp and ordered to show his stuff. Lee Fohl, old-time catcher and then manager of the club, told Stanley to "stick 'em over and let's see what you've got." All Go Wild. Coveleskie is a habitual spitfall slinger. He slung the moist ones at Fohl for 15 minutes and Fohl spent four hours that night massaging his legs, arms and other musclar regions back to normalcy. For every time "Covey" swished along his "spitter" heaven alone knev where it would
land. But usually it broke anywhere from three to nine feet away from the makeshift plate Fohl had rigged up. The next day it was the same story and the next. Coveleskie had speed a world of it He had a beautiful pitching motion, he had brains but that spitter his main stock in the
i pitching trade was the most erratic
thing that Fohl ever had tried to capture. "I'm afraid the kid won't do not with that sort of spitter,"' confided Fohl one night to Jack McCallister, an assistant. "If he could get that spitter breaking right he'd be a wonder. But he's throwing it like a man with both eyes blindfolded." "Let me try him out for a day or two." urged McCallister. "Sure," said Fohl. Watches Delivery The next day McCallister caught the kfd's delivery with the same result. McCallister watched the youngster's every action from the moment he started to wind up until the ball was on its way. And then, 15 minutes later, he called over a "rodVie" catcher to receive for "Covey." "I want to see you close up. said
McCallister, standing alongside the
i ujibu uumuusiuan. He watched Covey for a while, and then he stopped the kid in a windup: "I've found your trouble I've found it." he said. He made a few suggestions to the youngster, personally demonstrated what he wanted done and Coveleskie did it. Steps Into Greatness From that hour Stanley Coveleskie has been the greatest spitball pitcher in America, one of its greatest sVigers and a world series hero. And, most astonishing of all. the kid, once
"wilder-than a cannibal," has become
a marvel of control How come? .Well, that night ramp McCallister Fohl: "Coveleskie," he
holding his spitter too tight. Whenever he'd get a clutch on that ball, it would be so tight that it would squeeze out the nallva and his fingers would be holding a near-dry surface. When he'd let the ball go, the result would be a crasy break, utterly lacking In any sott of control, when it would break. "I told him to hold the ball a bit looser. That made it slip out of his fingers with a twist on it. He's pitching the ball that way now and he breaks that spitter like a world beater. He'll not only make good he'll be one of the league's best twirlers in another season or so." (Copyright 131 Wy Klna; Features , Syndicate, Inc.
