NEW YORK—(AP). New York

and. perhaps. a, little more seriously.

So has New York. Umpires here get
as little praise and as much baiting
as does the lone Blank-ville arbiter.
When the Yankees. Giants and
obins are winning. each attracts
large crowds. When they are in a
slump. each has a congregation of
loyal followers that refuses to desert
the grand stand and bleachers. The
same holds true ‘in Blankville.
New York's baseball crowds. how
ever. are far more cosmopolitan.
The Japanese. Chinese. Italians.
Germans. Slave. Frenchmen. EHS‘

foreigners soon become addicts of

Too Much Success
Last season Catcher Mickey Coch-
rane of the Athletics was the sensa-
tion of the majors.
Not in years has a recruit catcher
got away to such a phenomenal first
year in all departments of play. .
Now Cochrsne is wondering if
getting away so well isn't going to
prove a. serious handicap. It has
caused the fans to expect too much.
Plsying in all or parts of 184
games last season. displacing so
clever a catcher as Cy Perkins.
Cochrsne finished the season with a
betting average well over .300.
This year the fans doped him to
pick up right where he left. of! last
fall. When he failed to keep up the
sensational betting that featured his
first year's play. he heard ieers in-
stead 'of cheers for the first time as
*the fans' greetings. ‘

Discards Shine
It has long been an accepted the.
or! in baseball that a club to have a
chance for the pennant must. get the
best of catching.
During the lirst two months of
play in the majors. the showings of
Cincinnati in the National and New
York in the American have been the
two outstanding feats.
It is s rather’ interesting fact that
in each instance the‘catching has
been done almost entirely by two
discards.
Pat Collin after yearn of warm-
ing the . bench for the St. Louis
Browns. was relegated to the min-
ors. only to do a. comeback as the
first-string catcher of the New York
Yankees.
Val Picinlch. who last year shared
the catching woes of the tail-end
BostoneRed 30:. only to be waived
out of the league. has done most of
the catching for the Cincinnati
Reds.
