Cleveland. Ohio, May 27. The sensa
Ion of the urrent American League
beason la without question the Cleve-
end Indiana, who are battling tootn
knd nail at the present time with the
tV'ashljigton Nationals for first place,
nd one of the main reasons they're
Lp there Is Stanley Coveleskie, a i oast
roduvt. Stan came to the Indians
ivlth little or no reputation, and, al-
houglt lie showed a good spitter and
lenty of control at the Indians' spring
raining camp In New Orleans, no one
igured him for a flrbt string- hurleron
he Cleveland squad.
But ha started a game for the In
dians on the fifth day of the season.
nd -has been working regularly ever
lnce. In fact, Stan has been starting
Imost every series for 'levthuid.
Beat the Oraat Johnson.
Hla greatest achievement, of course,
a his -2 victory over the Washington
Nationals and Walter Johnson Thurs-
ay. May 1. It was the first game of
h aeries, and the Indians were leail-
ng Griffith's team by half a gam.-.
irst place depended on the outcome.
lid Walter Johnson, kingpin hurlerof
hem all, was the Washington choice.
ove was picked by Manager Fobl. unJ
he kid came through with th- goods.
Stan only worked C 1-3 innings, be
g taken out In the seventh, when
Yeshln'gton liad two men on the base.
ut he got into that hule thi.mgh his
ork at bat and on the paths. In the
eventh, with one on, (.'ove caught one
.Johnson's fast ones and Kent it la.'
Ut to center field. He sprinted i-
hird on the drive, and had to travel
last to score on O'Neill s afcort hit.
1th the result that lie was a pretty
ired athlete when the Inning was
ver, but, being possessed of Intrepid
erve, he told Manager Kohl he wasn t
t all tired, and Kohl allowed him to
o back. But he wasn't right, and was
anked.
Pitched Before Largest Crowd.
Sunday, before the largest crowd
hat ever paid to see a game in Cleve-
Lnd. Stan faced the cieat Johnson
bain, and should have been returned
nCtor, us a grievous error by W'timhs-
inss gave the Nationals one run; and

ta' score and kept the Indians' total

i.e eighth off Johnson, anil Cove didn t
ie the verdict, as Bagby pitched the,
ttnth Inning, when the Nationals wot:
lit
Cove's first effort was against the
leers April 17. He lost 3-1 in 12 in-
lngs, his good right arm weakening
hder the strain. The Tigers gathered
hits, but five came !n the twelfth
ame, when Cove was tired, and when
winning counters were shoved
TCS. He had. the distinction, bow
er, Of fanning the famous Tyrus
ayroond Cobb In the first Inning,
1th a man on base. This was the
ame In which his brother, Harry, of
Detroit club, refused to pltc'.i
gainst Stanley.
Stan's next appearance was against
0 St. Louis Hi owns, when the Red-
klns were being slaughtered, 11-1. He
tched two innings, in which time one
un and three hits were made.
He Shades the White Box.
The younger member of the Coveles-
e family registered his first victory
er the White Sox, when the Indiana
llled for five runs in the eighth in-
ng. Cove was taken out to allow
oward to bat for him, but he re
ived credit for the win. He allowed
ly two runs mid nine hits In the
ght innings he worked. The score
bis 5-3.
Then came another defeat, when he
las called upon to relieve Klepfer In
e ninth Inning at Detroit, April "9.
le Tigers needed one run to tie, and
id a man on second, with Cobb at
It. Surely a tough place to stick in
youngster, but Stan went In and Cob
hgled. tying the score. The Tigers
an out In the eleventh, 6-4.
Stan went right back at the Tigers
ay 1 and shut them out in an abbro-
ated contest. He allowed only two
ts when the game was called after
e fifth inning on account of rain.
And Whips Tnem Again.
Four days later Cove was pitted
ainst the White Sox and won again.
lis time by a 3-: score. He allowed
tent hits, but kept them scattered.
Manager Kohl selected him to start
6 eastern Invasion against the Red
X, and be was bested In a duel with
itch Leonard. Leonard allowed onlv

hlngs and allowed two runs and five

ance of opinion as to which of these

I believe, and have found, that the
"straight crawl" is the faster strok-
ii to say 20(p yards, after which the
American crawl may be used to better

In swimming the "American crawl.-'
the swimmer uses the double over-arm.

The entire water community of
Portland has Joined hands to make
the regatta of the Oregon Yacht club
and Portland Motor Boat cli:b, Decora
tion Day, one which will fittinglv
bring In the water sports stason.
The latest to Join Is the Portland
Rowing club, whl'h has agreed to senj
up two four-oared shells for a spurt
over the course. The crews have not
been announced but will be crack fours
from the best senior and Junior talent
at the club.
The Portland Motor Boat club has
Joined without reservation and that
organization's moorings will be de
perted for the day, while every man
Jack will tie up at the Yacht cluh or
take a hand In the lengthy string of
affairs which have been arranged.

the fore part of the list of events.
Officials In charge are determined to
put things on with a hum and even's
are going to be staged on the tirro
scheduled or not at all so there will
be something doing every minute of
the afternoon.
The houseboaters have eacn invitea
their friends to spend the day with
for the second time in four days. Stan
gave up two runs and eight hits in tho
first game against the Nationals, and
allowed three runs and seven hits in
the second Johnson setto.
He'd Freeze an Iceberg.
The greatest feature of Coveleskie's
work ls his intrepid nerve and his cool
ness. An iceberg would melt alongside
the lithe spitballer. His spitter hii
fooled 'em all, and his control, consid
ering the fact that a spitter is his
greatest asset, ls nothing short of won
derful. His nerve, though, is what has won
him mote admirers and supporters
than anythlrg else. Take the Sunday
setto with the Nationals, for instance.
In the sixth Inning, with Clyde Milan
at bat, the count was two strikes an 1
a ball. Silk O'Loughlin called the next
offering aball, though it cut the platt,
square. Silk was so surprised to nee
Stan shove one right In the center that
he, like Milan, was caught unaware.
With the count two and one and a sea
soned batter like Milan at the plate.
Silk and Milan both thought Stan
would try to fool with a wide one, but
the former Portland star showed his
nerve. Eventually Milan walked and
scored, and the defeat can be laid to
O'Loughlin's ruling.
Up to the present time Coveleskife
has won five and lost Tour. He had
worked 63 2-3 Innings, and has been
touched for 61 hits. He tas allowed
only 19 runs. May 26 a thunder storm
and rain beat Covey out of a game
with the Athletics, the score being S
to 1 for htm at the end of the fourth.
Up There Once Before.
Stan was in the big show once be
fore. It was back In 1913, when he
wore the uniform of the Athletics. X.
that time he pitched against the De
troit Tigers three days in a row. Sep

Willie Ritchie will be made welcome
to Portland, when he arrives here at
7 o'clock tonight to visit the Rose
Festival and box six rounds with
Ralph Oruman the night of June 6.
A number of Willie's friends and ad
mirers will meet him at the train and
a dinner will be tendered him at the
Imperial hotel shortly afterwards.
The former lightweight champion,
who is one of tSe most gentlenianlv
fellows iu the boxing game, has often
visited his sister in Portland and a
younger brother and siste- arc now go
ing to Ri bool heir. The family name
is ISteffen, Ritchie being merely Geary
Steffen's ring nom de plume. There

Stay Zs Cut Short.
Ritchie's stay In Portland has been
out short by the demands of the
Buenos Aires boxing authorities, who
have requested him to sail June 17 for
the Argentine republic, where he wul
meet Ted Lewis, the -Knglish weltor-
weight, over the 0 round route during
July. Kitdhlc is now a welterweight
and no longer attempts to make the
lightweight limit. The match with Gru-
fve to give him a line on
his weight-making ability for the
Lewis match.
Ritchie will do his training down
town at Mike Butler's gymnasium and
one of his sparring partners will be
Muff P.'onson, the promising young
Portland featherweight. Gruman, who

ry and with considerable added weight.
Gruman says he fee'.s fit as a fiddle
and will be in good shape for his little
affair with the ex-lightweight cham
pion. Gruman is giving away a little
weight but a few pounds do not make
any difference to htm; for he believes
that he will he able to outpoint the
