Jltn was too ambitious in the next inning nnd worken nimeu nut u n
job. He tried to field everything thai en me Ins way, especially ai liner iroin
tjffc George Burns s bat, which bounded off liis bnie hand, and another Mrler hit
ra$ by Witt,, which sizzled through both hands. That ruined his (ontrol and he
Avns chased, after the A's had scored their two and onl runs of the after
noon. Walter Johnson, known throughout the land as (lie Smoke King, lived
up to liis reputation in the closing innings nnd there was nothing doing. Whitcy
"ty'itt managed to get a hit, hut it counted for naught. .

T
;
FTElt Johnson stepped inimthe lor the Athletics tcicmblcd a flock
active membcis in an old Indies' sewing circle trying to hit the
ball tcith darning needles. Walter fanned file tit thiec innings Kith
little difficulty.
Athletics Look Good Despite the Defeat
HE Athletics perpetrated tluec foo.les during the nlteruoon. nut the
team looks ceod in spite of the boner". The bo.is were up against good
pitching, and that's the best alibi we can think of. Shaw had lots of speed
nnda low curve ball which was difficult to counect with, and had the Mitel -incu
helpless until he hurt his hud. Walter Johnson was in liis old-time
form, which meant it was up to the locals to roll over aud play dead.
With Walker on the sidelines and Bobby Itoth still suffering from a
wrenched back, Connie has been unable to put his strongest line-up in the
field. Bobby's arm also is bad and his hitting is not up to the usual standard.
An sdon as those two sluggers get into proper phsieal condition the wrecking
crew can start to work.
Kopp nulled a terrible boner in the sixth nfler he had walked and took
second on a wild pitch. Both hit one on the nose to center Held aud Kopp
started for third. 'This would have been all right had two men been out; but
no oue had perished, aud the result was an easy double play after Milan had
inadu the catch. 1-itber Manny or the coacber at third wasrnt fault, for the
play killed off one nnd possibly more scores.
Connie rushed three heavers into the fray, yanking Kinney in the sixth
iu fivor of Siebold, and chasing the kid to allow Lefty Anderson to fcet his
bumps. The Senators treated all alike, hitting the ball frfely and scoring
whenever it was possible. I'iciuicli, Shaw and Foster were the two hit ex-lY-rts,
while Thomas and Witt weic the only Mackmen to connect with a pair
of safeties.
Washington looks better with Shanks pjaying shoit and Menosky in the
outfield. The team has been weak in the I'entcr of the infield thus far and
the change seems for the better; Menosky is not jet in the be(t ot shape, but
will be able to fill in when he is needed. Griffith will have n good ball club
when the players start working together.

Pat Moran Should Worry Over First Reverse
T)A'f'MOUAN suffered the first reverse of the year yesteiday when the lowly

ntvaiglit. victories and was quite n shock to the fans of Itedlaud. 1'at has
sprung a big surprise with his ball club, for at the beginning of the season it
looked like anj thing but n strong aggregation. The training trip was terrible,
the men were in poor physical shape, there was no shortstop and Eddie
Koush was a confirmed holdout. Then the deal was put through with Brook
lyn, tradiug I.ee Mngee for Kopf, Koush signed the papers and the team
started to win ball games.
Cincinnati has' a great ouncli or sluggers in the line-up aud the first
eyeu men wt)l worry any pitcher. Heinie (J roll has been taken from the
lead-off position and dropped to thin, with Bath and Xeale ahead o' him."
ousli was awarded the clean-up place and Sherry Magee dropped to fifth.
That left a pair of hitters like Daubert and Kopf to bat sixtli and seventh.
g&'Witu Wingo and Bariden batting eighth and Bressler or Beuther pitching,
Lo'thqKcds will have nine parcels of trouble in the line-up and some heavy nrti.1-
gj$lpry should res-ilt. It l'at can get the pitching the Cincinnati club should be
jnear the'top oil season.
Our l'hils again aided the' Giauts id making the opeuiug game on the

"Speedy" Hush, former coach at Prince

coach at Cornell to succeed Dr. Albert
II. Sharpc was the statement made to
day by a member of the Cornell football
committee and taken as absolutely au
thentic. Bush was in Ithaca two days ngo in
consultation with members of the foot
ball committee, nnd an understanding
was reached which will soon be formu
lated in it contra t to be followed by a
foimal announcement of Bush's engage
ment by the athletic association.
The contract will be for a short term.
Bush hnving asserted that if he leturncd
to coaching it would be temporary only,
as his business would not permit him to
tie up for any length of time.
If Bush s wishes were met (.ornen

THE INHERENT VALUE
OF VITAL STATISTIC
COUNTS FOR NOTHING
In Batting, Pitching and Fielding Averages Often Are
Most Misleading, the Real Stars Trailing Those
Who Ptay "Percentage" Game
IN THK SPORTLIGHT BY GRANTLAND BICE
Cop right, 1019, all rights rrxrved.
JUST what is the inherent nluc of the Vital Statistic?
Ttv this ive mrnn hnttim- nvornnne. HnliHmf nvurntrnii nr niliiMm- nrprswg
How completely do they express the full value of n' ball player! Sergeant
Henry Gowdy, better known ,ns Lank Hank of the Line, wns moodily dis
cussing his own connection with the problem.
"Take the season of 1014," remarked Hank. "That year I never hit the
ball harder in my life. I begnu hitting in April and I hit all 'through the
season. I pounded thnt ball day in and day, out. I was batting at a .350 clip, -aud
jet what did I finish with? A measly .243.
"Why? Because they kept going straight at some infielder or some out- '
fielder. I couldn't get 'em safe. When the world series came on the luck
shifted. I wasn't hitting nny better through the series than I was through the
season, hut they merely happened to.brcak better.
tCVJlE result teas that I had .5J for the big Poteicow, against .SiS
' for the campaign before."
And So It Goes
rpHAT"S true enough." cut in Prof. Hughcy l'ullerton. "I remember
-L one j ear when Mitchell wasn't hitting the ball well. But they began to'
drop and loop safe for him nhd lie finished nbovo .300. The next season ho '
begnu to hit the ball much harder and should have had a fur better year. But
he finished around .200, for cerj tiling he hit traveled straight to an inlieldor
or outfielder."
Tinveliug the long loute, the average is bound to count. But the break
may last for an entire season, where well-hit blows insist upon going straight
at some sentry upon the rhnl defense.
UE RECALL one stretch of a month where Ty Cobb icas below
1' .Hot), and yet he insisted that he teas hitting the ball better than
at any time in his career. . '
Pitching Records
IT HAS been contended that the number of earned runs yielded by a pitcher
is u far better test ot his ability than the number of games ho has won
and lost.
One man might pitch brilliuntly and jet lose steadily where his club was
giving no batting, run-making support.
Another man, working not nearly so well, might win steadily where ho -was
j iclding four and five runs a game.
Aguinst this theory we hate the case of Mathewson, who made no attempt
to continue pitching low-score games unless necessity drove him into the corner.
Matty's system was to give his best when the sqore was close, but to ease
up promptly and save his arm when the Giants gathered in a tidy lead.
If his mates went out and secured five or six runs for him, Matty no
longer worked nt top speed. The idea then was to tuke it fairly easy and save
his arm for another battle. He could sec no reason in working for a shut-out
when the Giants had accumulated seven or eight runs'.
i.YD 7ie happened to be one of those rare types icho can let doivn
and then get going again when the time arrives to tighten up. S
-
THKHE are many tyho believe that Mcl.oughlin, the Comet, burned himself-'
out by moving at terrific speed nt every start. He kept the Vital Spark,
at too keen a flame, with the result that where Larned lasted nineteen years
around the top, bis span was less than ten a brilliant affair while it lasted,
but too fast to be maintained.
