The hottl against these pitchers, accord lug o Comlskey, Is nothing more than the result of Micecsx. The sudden ascension nf ( Icotte to tho role of leading pitcher In the liaguo Is beyond the understanding nf the other fellows. They work on the theory that after ten ears of blg-league endeator I icotte could not, unless some trick was discovered by him. become a consistent winner. As for Danforth, the batters do not seem to understand why ho can (-hoot fast halls past their bats. They think this can be 1,01,0 nly by applying some foreign sub stance that causes the. ball to perform strange pranks In Its travel fiom the mound to the catcher. Owing to nn error, the Evf.ni.vo LEOOEn last night gave Chief Bender, of the Phil lies, credit of winning five straight victories.

It appears that tho Tiger outfielder will not only lead the Johnson circuit In bat ting, but that he will finish the season with an average above .400. Cobb has hit safely In his last eight games, and If his current batting streak Is maintained he will soon pass the .400 post. Although Sisler continued his consecu tive batting tecord, he having hit safely ono or more times In the last fourteen games, he dropped ono point from hit average.

WAR IS LIKELY TO CUT LEAGUE ROSTER TO SEVENTEEN PLAYERS IF MORE MEN ARE CALLED TO ARMS Already Thirty Per Cent of the Players Have Been Affected by War Draft and Few Will Be Exempted THAT each big league club probably will be held to fifteen, s'xtecn or seventeen players is believed by many who nre looking toward the future. War did not hit tho major leagues very hard this season,-the attendance being nearly what It was a year ngo except In Washing ton, where the conditions are peculiar. But next year It will be different, as It Is a certainty that virtually every big league plnyer who Is single or does not have rhll dren dependent upon hliu will be called to tho colors. Already nearly 30 per cent of tho blg lcaguo players have been called for exami nation, and It not likely that any will be exempted except poHslbly some married men who have families dependent upon them As a result, the ranks of tho majors will bo shattered. Tho Cleveland club already has had six men drawn, nnd It would bo no surprise If the second call caught six or seven others, and It might come about that Jim Dunn would only have tho older married men of his team left next spring. With others of the sixteen blg-league clubs suffering, some Just as materially, others possibly not quite so much, It Is believed a limit of sixteen or seventeen will be Imposed, as there will not be enough to go around If each club tries to carry twenty-live men as at present. But the outlook Is such that It Is be lieved a number of the single men who havo not yet been called will volunteer as hoon as the season Is over, m ns to be ablo to pick their branch of the service, and in that way avoid conscription. Only Pitchers Come Back Do they como back? Connie Mack says pitchers do, but that catchers, Inflelders and outlleldets, onco they slip Into tho minors, havo slight chances of returning to the big show and making good. Mack makes an exception of the young sters who get blg-league trials before they aro ripe and later on come up to stay. "Very few players I have tried out thor oughly and sent to the minors have come back," said Mack a few nights ago. "Tho ones who have como back have been pitch ers, and there always Is a chance of their making good In tho big league after one nr more managers havo declared them through "Vim see, a pitcher lini a chance t i chance his stvlo. Say. I havo let a pltiher go because I havo despaired of his ever getting control. H gfe to the minors, vvotka tvvlco a week, gets control nnd then Ii I rady to stick In the majors. I'erhapi I have let another go because It seemed he never would le.irn to Held his position or keep the baso i miners from acquiring big leads He goes to the minora. concctH his faults and comes back to stay. "I let Dave Danforth go because bo did not have a curve ball He has not one yet, but down In tho minors he mado good by uMng tho finely ball. When they Mopped him from using that he invented the shlno ball and lias made good with the White. Sox. I have known of others who adopted the spltball n u means of stepping back Into tho majors." Connie says that Barber Is one of the best out Holders he has looked at In ni.uiv a -day and that there scarcely Is a big league club In tho country but could ue him On tho other hand. Crane h:m been turned over to Minneapolis by Washington Connie Opposes Shine Kail Continuing, Mack said: "Any tlmo I hear of a pitcher coming back after being dltcatded, I n-k: "What Is ho putting 'on the ball?' And I ask that now lu regard to Chief Bender, who has pitched three Mititouls In a row. I don't know for sure, but I'll wager be H using the shine ball Chief Is a piett smart pitcher and ho would pick up such a ball mighty quickly. "Krcd Knlkenberg came back twh'e. didn't he". Tho emery ball brought him once, and tho licorice, or shine, ball tho other time. You cm almost gamble on It that when nn old-timer comes back ho has some thing like that up his sleeve and Is not depending upon tho old legltlmato stuff "But give me the day again when the pitchers will stick to the legltlmato nidli ods, as they did In the days of Addle Joss, Blank, Bender. Waddell, Matbevvson, I'owcll, Donohue nnd Bernhard. Of course, there nre n lot of pitchers now who use straight stuff like B.igby, Huth, l.eonaid, Bush, Datenpoit, Caldwell and I'lsher, but there nre too many using tho spltter and tho various styles of shlno balls." 2 3 t 1 1 1 '.'111 4 4 :i 2 - .... 1 1 2 4 dr 1:10U. 2:21. 2 2 111 112 4 2 .1 S a 2 ro 4 4 I 3 ro 2:12U. .
