He's going to battle bantams now. There aren't enough fly- weights in America to fur- nish sufficient opposition for Johnny to make a living for his wife and four kiddies.

LOUIS, Aug. 25.—Waiting ‘emp out! John Tobin ts filling that role for the St. Louis Browns. And his five feet eight inches of stature and 169 pounds make him one of the hardest men to pitch to in the American league. The midget outfielder is batting around .275 in addition to his job of working pitchers for passes, “I figure my job of waiting them out handicaps me just about 20 points in batting,’ says Tobin. ‘umber one man on the batting order must sacrifice his batting av- erage. “Any way to get on is the idea I always have in mind. “I'm not kicking on my job. T score a lot of runs. That's what wins games.” Tobin at 27 is having his best year. Tobin played with Salt Lake in the Coast league in 1917. SOME GREAT COMEBACKS They say they never come back, but there certainly have been some great examples of comeback ability in baseball. “Babe” Adams, 38 years old, re- garded as thru and sent to the minors in 1917, is back and is pitching Pittsburgh into a pen- nant in the National league, Allen Sothoron, cast adrift by the St. Louis Bi » has come back with the Cleveland Indians and he’s pitching great ball. dohn Ryan did a famous come- back with the Los Angeles club a few years back.
