what it was doing when it refused to
get excited about the scramble for.
Petty, caused by his work with the
Indianapolis team. I
Cleveland had Petty soir.e years'
ago. He seemed to have promise.-
The club finally let him go. how
ever, and while no reason was given
for the move, the opinion was ex-'
pressed by some that Petty's main
fault was a mental one. Sucee83
oeemed to hurt him rather than spurj
him on.
Petty Joined the Dodgers last:
spring with the reputation of havingi
won 29 games and lost but 8 for the'
Hoosiers. a great percentage in that
league of sluggers and wisei old
birds. Many a pitcher has Joined the
the majors with a much less impres-,
sive record Ik' nd him and with
much less experience in facing bat
ters and has come through in rapid
time. .
Why, then, did Petty go pflooie?
Only one other disappointment ap
proaches it in Uncle Kobbie's mind.
That Is the reversal ol form shown
by big Rube Ehrhardt. You'll rec.ll

He is Just about breaking even In
victories and defeats, and has yet to
win his tenth game.
The tune regarding the lively ma
ture of the big baseball now in use
in the big -leagues has changed of
late. The drop in' the home run av
erages and the ability of pitchers to
remain longer under the daily fire
has caused some followers of the
game to suggest that adverse com
ment on the "rabbit" ball has caused
manufacturers to change the compo
