Clerks see that he has one of the finest rooms and waiters hustie to hie side the moment he Is seated In the dining room. In the lobby the great hurier le regarded as a prima donna. Thru it all Grover is as mod- est as a schoolgirl. He does not make any effort to show himself but goes about his af- fairs in his ueual even temper- ed way. Coolness seems to be one of the big assets of the man who has done more than any other one person to put the Phils at the top and the man who will be a whale if he ever gets into a world’s series. “There isn't a hitter in the i who can worry Alex,” said Jack Adams, the young catcher on the club. “I've sat on the bench and seen him In some tight holes and good hit- ters coming up in a row, but he’s always the same. “He's got much speed as anybody; he’s got about the best curve bali in the business and he CAN PUT THAT OLD BALL JUST ABOUT WHERE HE WANTS IT. Along with all Ss a great fellow per however, doesn't see He Alex, himself as others see him. Is unmindful of the attention he attracts. The first thing one sees In a glance the great hurier is a flash of diamonds. The stones are the only “loud” things about his dress, His clothes a neat and uptodate, but plain. In all, he’s just a plain fel- low.

Other baseball men agree with Cobb concerning Inside tricks. ‘They say the plays used in the game are known to every manager and player, and therefore the success of the tricks depends wholly in knowing when to use them It in merely a case of doing one thing when the opponents are looking for another. Cobb says pitchers can prevent watching the runner on third ba: runner will start for the plate as soon If the man on the slab watches intention quickly and pitch out or high. up. the squeeze play In nine o by closely out of ten the the twirler begins his wind- According to Cobb it was the cunning of the hurlers in keeping their eye on the man at third that caused the squeeze play to be abandoned.

GTON STATE TENNIS TOURNEY BEGINS HERE TODAY Tough _ Series | Ahead | Upon the showing of Seattle in the series with the Spokane club opening today across the Cascades will the final position of Dug’s men in the pennant race be determin- ed. In order to make any vis- ible impression the Giants will have to practically make a clean sweep of the series of seven games, for Spokane is now nine games in the lead. While Tealy’s ambitious athletes have performed some startling feats since the na- |tion’s birthday, they are hard- |ly strong enough to put over | seven or even six in a row on the Indians. The fact the | Giants are on the road adds |to the difficulties. Of course |there is no telling what the | Seattle club will do, only fair- {ness demands that we do not expect too much from them. Even if Seattle should take the series 4 to 3, the club would gain only one game. The Giants were there with the punch yesterday, Pat Eastley flat- tening the Beavers, 4 to 3, in a 10- inning duel with Harry Hughes. Seattle took the lead, 1 to 0, in the third, which advantage the Beavers nullified by pushing over three runs in the sixth, Led by Shaw and Barth, the Giants fathered two runs in the eighth, and put over the fin- ishing touch in the tenth. Hunky Shaw poled four consecu- tive hits yesterday, one of them a double. Three of these hits meant runs. His base running antics were responsible for the winning tally in the tenth.

When she left Seattle she forgot to bring an old slipper, in which she had hidden $160 in $20 gold pieces. But about as soon as she left, Ray Thorning, who lived in the same house with Mrs. Marlowe in Seattle, found the slipper and the gold and took the money to Chief of Police Lang. Lang sent {t to Chief of Police Snively here and today Chief Snive- ly found Mrs. Marlowe and gave it to her.
