TRAINING CAMP BRIEFS (By The Associated Press) ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. Manager Joe McCarthy cited the record books to prove his contention a combination of teamwork and pitching was the success secret of the New York Yankees. "All this talk about the Yankees blasting their way to the championship on sheer pow-er does not coincide with the records," said McCarthy.

"What power are they talking about? The Yankees only had three hitters in the .300 class last year. Look it up for yourself. "Look at the team batting averages and see where we finished," McCarthy prompted. The Yankees finished sixth at .274, nosing out only Philadelphia and Detroit. "If you wont to know how the Yankees win championships, it is because they play championship ball," McCarthy continued.

"When a man takes a job of this kind." says the Oregon hop grower, "he must realize that his association with the club will terminate sooner or later." From what you gather in the Detroit camp, which still discusses Mickey Cochrane's summary dismissal last Summer, the sudden switch should not have been so surprising. Veteran followers of the Tigers assert that Cochrane's contract would not have been renewed had Frank Navin lived.

In the Spring of 1936, right after the Tigers had won their second pennant and a world championship, Navin pointed to Del Baker, jump ing and shouting the third base coach's box, and remarked to Will Harridge. president of the American League: "There's a fellow who will be a great manager some day." Walter o. Briggs took over sole proprietorship of the Tigers with the death of Navin. Those closest to the situation date the start of the fall of Cochrane stock in his eyes to a sun bath taken by Black Mike in the left field bleachers of the spacious Tampa ball park a year ago. The body builder had driven from his Miami home to see his club play Cincin nati.

Cochrane enjoyed his sun bath until the game was about to get under way and then, resplendent in sport togs, ankled to the bench to do the master minding. This didn't set well with Briggs, who remarked: "I didn't realize how differently they do things in the National League. I see that. Bill McKechnie takes his sun bath at third base." Baker, the old catcher, agrees with Chillie Willie Terry of the Giants that the secret of managing is knowing when to take a pitcher out. Another important factor is being able to make up your mind.

Baker uses Rudy York, the huge Indian, as an example. "I advised York to play the outfield," the homespun Baker explains, "but a.s long as he wants to catch I'll let him catch until I am convinced that he doesn't belong there. Then 1 11 lose no time making a change." Baker laughs at the suggestion that the Yankees should be broken up to balance the American League. He contends the Yankee organization had vastly more to do with building perennial world champions than Col. Jacob Ruppert's He points to King Kong Keller, who is to start in left field for the New Yorkers.

The Yankees signed Keller right under Clark Griffith's nose. Keller swatted the ball for miles for three solid Springs on the University of Maryland campus 10 miles from Griffith Stadium and Clark Griffith or no one attached to the Washington club heard of him until he was Yankee property playing havoc with International League flingers and fences.

WE, the WOMEN By RUTH MILLETT 4 Nothing burns a woman up like watching another woman wTap a man around her little finger. If she hadn't used all the tricks over and over herself she wouldn't know what the other woman is up to when the latter: Suddenly develops a consuming interest in whatever the man she wants to annex is interested in. Thinks up a nickname for him that is both teasing and flattering. Finds something about him to admire that ordinary eyes have never seen. (If he is a little on the heavy side mentally shaking she makes him feel like a great wit.

Or if he is stoop-shouldered and intellectual, makes him feel like a second cousin of Tarzan.) Alternates the "hard-to-get" role with the "I like you and-don't-care if you know it" line. Lets him know oh, so subtly that she gets around, and that he isn't the only one who appreciates her. Convinces him that she understands and applauds his plans and ambitions. Manages to cast enough glamor about herself to make him feel pretty piea.sed over getting her attention. Makes him feel that anything could happen between them all v-i Harold Stanhope, Ohio State Sophomore and Big Ten backstroke champion, pulled the first surprise of the national collegiate swimming meet at Ann Arbor, when he entered the 1500-meter event for the first time this year and won in 19:53.8, upsetting the favored Adolph Kiefer of Texas.

Young Housewife Wants Every Sufferer To Know How New Herbal Compound Quickly Relieved Her Ailments How many times have you taken medicine with every hope of its neiii just what you needed, only to discover later that you had gotten very little real good out of It? Nearly every half-sick and ailing person has had that experience. Local folks, however, are now learning that the true way to health is through which is now being so successfully introduced by the "ANE" Man who is meeting local people daily at Cauffman's Cut Rate 77 Lincoln Way West, this city, and many of them are publicly recommending it to their friends.

D. 7, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, says: "I have been bothered with nervousness and constipation and other inorganic ailments for several years and have been unable to get any relief from these complaints. My appetite dwindled away to practically nothing and I didn't feel like eating at mealtime. I was bothered with pains in my back and limbs, also, getting up nights, and numerous other complaints which would cover a half page of this newspaper. I can say today, that after using "ANE" for two short weeks, that I feel better in every respect and consider myself almost completely well.

I am going to continue to use "ANE" until 1 am well. "Constipation has been completely relieved and I can eat any-Thin? want and not have indigestion. Those pains my back Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the Georgia Peach, goes down into baseball history as the flashiest and most daring player who ever wore spikes. For 22 thrill-fillet! years he played with the Detroit Tigers, leading the American League in batting for a dozen of those, becoming a legendary Colossus of the d'amond by his dashing skill on the base paths. In the outfield, he was one of the best men ever robbed a batter of an extra base hit by pulling down a hard-hit liner w'ith a running catch.

Ty and Babe Ruth hold more cords than any players in the game. Cobb finished up his major league playing career with Connie Mack's Athletics after he had been on the roster of the Detroit Tigers for twenty-two years. He was a self-made ball player. Born in Royston, Ty's only natural attribute was speed and craft. He was not a natural hitter, so he studied batting as a science.

And being cagey, Cobb decided to capitalize his speed as a base runner. He perfected the faliaway slide in a homemade sandpit, and when he came to Detroit after a orief career in the rninors the game's experts knew at once that here was sensation. He was bought by the Tigers for $700 in 1905 and the following year he walloped the ball for an average of .322, the first of 21 jonsecutive seasons as a better than 300 hitter. Cobb had the reputation of a 3ery temper, but many of the in-ridents traced to this such as his feuds with rival players could andoubtedly be laid to showmanship. Cobb loved the same; hated to lose and this caused him to get hto scores of amazing scrapes.
