The support given the Besse-Leland | club this season has been very poor | and it is a well known fact that the | club has been losing money at almost | every game, while hoping that the next week would see things picking up. However, if there be any solace in the information, this is not the only | state league outfit losing money. | The Willimantic entry also has| gone on the rocks and to such an ex- tent that it has been decided to dis- continu: the club, the management having dropped over $3,000 since May | 17, Decision to quit the league was made after a referendum vote had heen taken among the fans and the league and but 285 for it. On a vote to support an independent ball club le fans voted 904 against and 205 for “The association ha i $3,000 since May on 1ts Connecti- cut league club ventures or about $400 a game.

Few cluhe have ever won a pen nant without the aid of great pitch- ing. campaign of 114 games, John McGraw is one of the has jockeyed a and very fow managers who team to a pennant with just ordinary pitching. Several times McGraw has upset the dope of the critics who insisted Lis pitching would fail him in a pinch. Go back over the records of the pennant winners and world cham- plons and the fact stands out when the pitching fails the team invariably breaks. Detroit won a pennant in 1907-0§- 09 with an all-star pitching staff that world series was backed by much batting strength | and a fair defense. When the late Bill Donovan, George Mullin, Kddie Summers, Ed- gar Willetts and Ed Killian began to slip, the club did likewise. The Chicago Cubs, the big noise of the National league from 1906 to 1911, fell back the moment Overall, own, Lundgren, Pfeister and the rest of the etaff began to wilt, Pitching means much to a pennant It is most necessary over a long | winner, When the Toston copped in 1914, superb pitching by Rudolph, Tyler and Jumes made pos- sible the club’s unexpected success. For three years the “fiv pitching staff of the New York Yankees has dominated the Ame can league, Once upon a time it consisted of Carl Mays, Bob Shawkey, Joe Bueh, Sam Jones and Waite Hoyt. When | Mays passed out Southpaw Herb Pen- | nock was added te the select circle. The Yankees, a club with much | power, supplied with a great pitch- has for three yecars had on the American league field Opposing feams faced good pitch- ing in every game against the Yan- 'l« es, while the New York club i"i return was up against the same brand of pitching just about half the time. Like all great pitching staffs, the “five-star” combination of the Yanks cannot go on forever. There must finally come a break. When it comes the club will suffer, as have all {other pennant-winning aggregations. The failure of the Yanks to be away out in front at this stage by | their usual comfortable margin has |('all.st! some of the experts to be- lieve the pitehing staif of the world champions is cracking. True, it has lacked the consistency | of former years so far this season, but therve is still plenty of dynamite left in the pitching arms of the men who carry the hope of the New York American. | | | | | |Cobh Has Enough and Is Anxious to Sit on Bench | Boston, July 18 —Ty (‘obh wants to| stop playing haseball as a regular this year. | It he can get a man to take his "plm'l‘ in the Detroit outfield, he said yesterday, he will withdraw from the lineup and become a bench manager, {although ha added that he would still |doubticss play from time to time, ! He said that 20 years of baseball | were beginning to tell on him and that his health made withdrawal as a regular necessary.

On that date the Washington fans saw the Yankees for the last time, | Incidentally Washington has already | played eight of its 11 games at New over, At this writing Nationals are strong pennant tenders, yet only three of the games scheduled between the clubs | remair unplayed. That s unfortunate because the | fans in both cities would flock to any | scries between the two clubs. Detroit and Cleveland are great ri- vals. Both are in the running for the American league pennant, yet the fans of these two cities have but lit- tle to enthuse over as far a3 seeing these two clubs oppose each other. On July 7 . Detroit finished fts schedule of 11 games in Cleveland. While Cleveland has only three more games to play in Detroit early in September. Thus four of the contending teams, natural rivals, have practically finigh- ed their season schedule with each other. This 1s to be regretted In a race that promises so many thrills before the finish. The 1924 schedule is certainly a freak one, far from befitting the close race. con- a0 JONES AND INGRAHAM WI YaleHarvard Tennis Players Take Doubles From Britons, London, July 18, — The Yale-Har- vard tennis players met players of the Queens club in doubles matches yes- terday.
