Travers here in the star bout of
the open air card next Wednesday
night. The scrap is slated for ten
rounds and Travers is certain to
find the sensational Gotham boy a
worthy opponent before the final
gong is struck.
Efforts by Paolillo to induce
Georgie Day to climb into the ring
with Travers again was unsuccess~
ful because Lew Borwn, who man-
ages Day or is listed on the state
record books as a'. manager. insisted
that the Nutmeg!) give Day a con-

Pick “.MiCkey’v"Cochrane As Year’s Biggest Find
Young Mackian Catcher Leaps to Stardom in First Season
' in
By ’BIIALY EVANS.
,- The biggest find of the year in
the majors?
On the surface that. appears to be
a rather perplexing problem.
Howaver. s. majority of the ex.
ports seem to thin that Catcher
"Mickey" Cochrsne of the Philadel-
nltia Athletics is entitled to that
honor.
Few backstops in the history of
big league boll have Jumped from
the minors to the position of first.
string catcher in one year. "Mick.
ey" Cochrane has that distinction.
All the more surprising is the fact
that Cochrane had only one year of
professional oxperiencoh prior to
coming to the majors. It was with
Portland of the Pacific Coast
League.
neat. Perkins for Job.
Some idea of Cochrane's remark-
able ability can be gained from the
fact that he stepped ahead of Cy
Perkins. one of the very finest
catchers in either big league.
Three years ago Cochrsne was a
student at. Boston University, win-
ning glory for his aims. mater‘on the
gridiron as well as the diamond.
In some way he escaped the eagle
eye of the scouts of the two Boston
clubs. However. that is not unusual,
for it seems to be hard for a local
boy to make much headway with
his home team.
Literally. Cochrane arrived. over-
night. In spring training. while he
gave evidence of much ability. there
seemed to be a. lack of the mechan-
ics of catching to his play.
Had Ono Bud Weakness
He had a. habit. of fighting the
bail. In baseball. such an expres-
sion means failing to give with the
pitchc. there being a stiffness to the
arms that results in many dropped
balls.
Dropping pitched balls is a fatal
weakness for a catcher. The time
lost in regaining the ball. after once
dropping it. invariably causes the
loss of the runner.
“I can't make up my mind on,
him." remarked Connie Mack to me
at Ft. Myers, lt‘la.. this spring when
we were discussing Cochrane.
"He can hit. He has a great arm.
He is fast. But of all he likes the
game and his spirit is an inspiration
to the rest of the boys.
"Once he masters the technique
of catching he is going to be a star.
At present he fights the ball ter.
ribly, but I am hopeful he will oven
come that fault. vThat. by the wsy.
is his. only weakness."
Cochrsno Arrived Own-night.
A month later I watched Coch-
rane in action and he was still fight-
ing the hall. Then overnight he
seemed to overcome his lone weak—
