The legs of every athlete pay tho toll flrat.,'- The American league haa four outstanding veterans In Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Trls Speuke!1 and EXldlo Collins. ; ' Watch C.pbbJ Spook er and Col linn at the bat and It will soon he evident to you that time has in no way dimmed their eyes. If you would usk any American leaguo pitcher to naoia the 10 hard- eat batter In tho league to pitch to, the above trio would occupy promi nent places in such a select list. If you would ask Cobb, Sneaker or Cblllni what, If anything, handi capped their play after so many years Of strenuous service, I reel safe in venturing the opinion that the answer would be something like this: ' "The only placo I reel old Is In the legs." ' AJIOIT JOHNSON Wliot about Walter Johnson you nsk. Well this bit of Information surprised mo and t hevo no doubt b'U that It will strike you tho mn Way. This spring when I asked Walter how he felt und how his arm, was responding, he answered:' "I'm not worrying about the arm; It's the legs. They reel mighty wobbly every time I stride on them." - .- ... .--! .. Tho leg are the first to fnlter recurdlean Of the sport. ' S YIF.'S KTA1TS J!arl Ramie, generally regarded ad America's premier Jockey, is to ride In the Kentucky Derby. JtcgnrdlfHft what horse has Snndo upon him, It Is going to get a good Play nccausn of the faith tho race going public has in the ability ot Bnndc as a jockey. His victory on Flying fchonv wist yiar was one of the greatest feats In turf history. All the more so because Hondo had only ridden a few times prior to the Kentucky classlo because or an Injury that had threatened to end his career, Sonde has two Derbies to his credit. Johnny Ixirtus Is tho only other Jockey In the Inst 30 years to turn the same trick. only one Jockey, I. Murphy, a rider or the old school, has thrice piloted a Derby winner. He won his last race In 1891. So that 36 years have elapsed slnrn there has been a three-tlmo winner lu the Derby. Come on, Bande! Walla Walla, Pendleton Win in Bine Mountain m.rt? movvtain lkaoff.
