Jay Cashion, Washington Pitcher. Manager Clark Griffith of the Wash- Ington American league team has not lost confidence or hope of making a pitcher out of Jay Carl Cashion. The husky boy goes through a stiff course of sprouts each day. Griff is teaching him how to use the “spitter,” and if . Cashion can develop a good spitball, and at the same time be able to con- SOME STAR CATCHERS National League Men Have Noth- ing on Americans. Thomas and Lapp Did Not Suffer by Comparison WIith John Kling In World's Champlonship Series Played Two Years Ago. For the last few years Natlonal League critics have boasted of their catchers and declared that the Amer- Ican league had nothing in the back- stopping line to compare with Kling, Archer, Dooin, Bresnahan, Gibson and others of almost equal ability. Last year they added Chief Meyers, of the Giants, to their list of National League stars and declared the Amer- fean League tould not show the In- dian’s peer. Perhaps they were right. Certainly Kling showed up the Detroit catchers during the world’s series of 1907 and 1908, while Gibson most assuredly had It on the Tiger receivers during the battles in the fall of 1909. It was pre- sumably the superiority shown by the National Leaguers in those three set- tos that caused their partisans to de- olare the younger circuit was weak behind the bat. Ira Thomas and Jack Lapp, how- ever, @ld not suffer by comparison with Johnny Kling in 1910, while the same pair held their own with Chiet BASEBALL 3 p. m, Sunday, June 30 COMING The All Nations Baseball Club and Garrie A cosmopolitan group of stars of all nations, including Japanese, Chinese, Cubans, Turks, Indians and the world famed Carrie Nation, the only real girl who can play the great national game. | Meyers Tast Pall.

Sykes Misses a Game. The game at Mobile between the Crackers and Gulls on May 6 was the rst regularly scheduled game Earl Sykes has missed in three years where his own club was playing. In 1910 he went through the entire -season with the Dayton Central League club without missing even one inning, and last year he went through every in. ning of each game played by the Crackers without missing and played 17 games this season before a split finger forced him from the line-up. In all, Sykes participated In 300 succes. sive games without missing an inning, Another Walter Johnson, There is another Walter Johnson appearing in the offing.

Cashion is willing and works hard, and that is all Griff wants, for the Old Fox is a patient waiter, and Cashion will not be hurried along in the prim- ing process. Washington fans are particularly sweet on this youngster.

Jackson of the Boston Braves fis starting to hit the same as last year, when he set the league afire. e Another vote on the time of starting games in New York will be taken, the balloting to continue until July 5.

Just do it and let it go at that. “The object of drill and discipline is not to worry you. The captain is not sitting up all night to invent contrap- tions to persecute you. “If you are weak and easily thrown off your base, get back into control of yourself as quickly as you can.

Don’t wear it on the back of the head. Don't stick cartridges in the hatband. Don't have the service hat used as an autograph album. “Learn to stand steadily, not like a ramrod, but without strain. Don’t spit in ranks; don’'t wiggle. Don’t follow the inspector with your eyes. “When your company is dismissed from drill, don’t turn a handspring, howl with joy or fire off blank cart, ridges.

Now, if a plane is made with a diamond blade instead of a steel blade, and the blade is set just right, the plane when run over glasy will turn out fine, thin shavings, some- thing like those made by a plane om wood. This gives some idea of the wonderful hardness of a diamond, yet there is something harder than a diay mond; it is another diamond or even the same diamond, for a diamond may be extra hard in one part and not se bard in another part.
