A great future is predicted for Ed ttaecht, the 19-yenr-oM member of the Thlllies, but his future rests In his own ha ruin, Ed is a pitcher by trade and, seemingly, a good one. He Is now known as Big Chief Foot-in-Your-Face and It's likely to change to something else when he is better known. Hwever, this is no certainty. Kd haa a pretty pair of violin cases, real huge affairs, which completely mask his motions.

Louis Is one city where all the dope went wrong this year. Both the Cardinals and the Browns have strong. Mwerful teams all except those pitching staffs. The Cardinals have failed to create their expected stir In the National League becauao they haven't been getting the pitch tug.

Nevertheless, from whet we hear, Oeorg la to be the goat. Other Things VKng.

In St. Louis folks say that other things have been wrung with the club beside Insufficient pitching.

At Least "I'opV Plan Would lie Football. WARNER'S plan has at least the merit of being football, instead of a glorified form of basketball.

The forward pass violates the fundamental principles of football. is at variance with the whole theory on hich rugby and our American game was founded. Rugby players are frankly amazed when they see our men throwing the ball forward, as nre the elder generation of American rtd fans. Homehow it doesn't seem right to throw the pigskin ahead. It tears nt the very fa bile of a game whh 1m based on territory gained.

The ball should be carried or kicked forward but certainly not thrown. The forward pass is an rtillclal makeshift that was tnsinu- into football in order to calm the Prudence Prims who were try inc to have the game abolished. The very bleu of "an Ineompietlon" Is abhorrent. I ncompleted passed make the ga rno more or lesn ridiculous, militating ns they do against scientific strategy. Kvery play should carry through to a definite conclu-Hion.

Instead of marring the continuity of attack. The forward pass has always been a white elephant to the rules committee, which has gone to all sorts of extremes to make this hrid piny workable. Fundamentally false in theory, the forward pass complicated leglslat Ion and Interpretation.

Warner has always contended that fothall does not need "basketball methods to make it spectacular to the spectator.

Warner has employed the puna mainly as a threat to cover hia matchless running plays.

The alleged superiority of de-fenne over attack never seemed to slop Warner's elevens from goini: Hoiuewhere.

This Is the way opposing batters talk about him. They also state that the ball comes shooting at them from behind the leather scenery at some queer angles. Be that as it may, there is another angle to be considered, the hand that throws the ball. Two hands that rock the cradle make one of Unecht's. Jack Hem ley describes the mitt as a huge ham with fingers attached.

Picking up a basketball with one hand, considered quite a foat. is mere child's Play to this lad.

One need not be a visionary to conjure a picture of the ball being prubheU by Baecht and disappearing as quickly and ns neatly as if done by a Houdini. Cobb's Own Fault.

Ty Cobb's lack of success with his Pitchers appears tu be his own fault. Repeatedly, wirier discarded by Cobb for one reason or another blos-m again under other management. The case of Owen Carroll brings this to mind. College ball players are seldom great hitters, but Carroll was so successful during his duys at Holy Cross that he stood out like a a whale in a pond. He went to ivtroit heralded as a second Christy Mathewson, but was pretty much of a bust in the big leagues.

This spring he was farmed out to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Hoss Howley. director nf activities on the Maple Leafs, saw Carroll pitch down in Augusta, where the Leafs and Tigers trained. He paid more than a little attention to Carroll and. when Cnbh sent the youngster to Tornnto, Howley had a rampaign mapped out for him Car roll was to pitch his own game without advice from the bench.

The system worked. Owen wun every ne of his six starts and showed particular steadiness in the pinches. Making International League butters hit nothing but thin air is quite feat, but it is not turning major league baiters. So much i a simple matter to deduce, but, sincp Carroll won every game In which he 'tched, a not her phase is addd to the quest ion. K'ght now.

the Tigern ire batttm; well, just ns was but they are not getting good nough pitching. Judging iWom he "emilts obt.n Ined by How Icy. it doen Tot seem like a bud idea for Cobb 'o let his pitchers take care nf themselves, irintettd of emulating the trategy of Napoleon Juwn Joseph McOraw.

(Staff Correspondent of The Eagle.) ft. Louis, May It's tho hardest thing In the world to please all of the people all of ths time and no one knows this better than a gent who controls the destiny of a big league ball club. Phil Hall, owner of the St. Louis Browns, doubtless thought that he was doing a great thing when he accomplished sweeping alterations In what natives of the Mound City Jok ingly refer to as Sportsman's Pnrk. From the standpoint of artistry, the uileratlona are a complete sue cess.

The seating capacity of the park has been increased from mere 11,000 to aver 84.000. AVlth Its new concrete, double-decked stand extended all the way around to both foul lines, the park looks like a real big league apple orchard for the ili'Bt time In Its history. All of which does not ntoo the athletes of St. Louis and elsewhere and the newspapermen of St. Louis und elsewhere from squawking hor riuiy.

Jlogers Hornsby, mnnnger of the Cardinals, Is said to be right up there in tne van nr tne aquawkers. One would think that leading the National League In the business of hotting over a atretch of six years would sort of dull llornsby'a craving for hasehlts. Hut It seems that the ICnJah's love for his hit Is Juit as great as ever. Had IlltUnsj Background. To make a long story Justified, Hornsby doesn't like New Sport man'a Parle because he says lta hard to hit against the new back a wan.

some lb reet high and painted green, backs up the outfield. Hut above that conventional colored barrier long row of shining concrete A dark green hacks-mum. I- vored by all hitters. Hut according to Hornsby a butter, except when a low ball la pitched, must pick the o4.ii uin qi a gray nelil or rnncral. And when spectators gather In deep center Held It Is even worse.

It Is i.isnionaoie to alt costless at a ball game In St. Ixiuis and damllng white stretch la probably the worst of nil hitting backgrounds. liornsl.y has protested on behalf of the Cardinals, according to nil reports. It remains to he seen whether or not anything will he done nhoiit It. Hut It's a cinch thnl If llornsby'a hitting doesn't rsme up tn past performances this sens.

in his revamped home bsll park will absorb part of tha Llama. Kh-lil In Poor Hbape. The athletes alwo squawk exten-slvely about the playing field Itself, which always has been nothing much. The present field la worse than ever, because there Is more ot It, for no other reason. The newly constructed bleachers and pavilion are set some III feet back nt where the old fence alood.

and the apace between la ahsolutaiy bare. players refer to the whole layout ns "ploughed ground." That seems tu I'" but a slight easggeration. While the sealing rapacity of the new park has been almost doubled, the sine of the prsssbog remains Illinois Commission Getting Ready for Work Chicago, May I la?)
