Browns' Manager Slams Back At Cobb's Criticism

NEW YORK. June 2 - (AP) - Rogers l-iornsby slammed back at Ty Cobb's blast of modern day baseball and left the Georgian peach off his all-time team.

in the current issue of Lock magazine, the St. Louis Browns manager listed five outfielders. in- cluding Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams. ahead oi Cobb.

"Why should he put the rap on the name that made him?" Horns- by wrote. '

l-lornsby disputed lCobb'a asser- tion that Phil Bizzuto and Stan .1-lusial are the only modern: who unuld have stood out in the dead ball era.

"What is Cobb talking about7' he wrote. "George Kell. Tiger third baseman, is almost as scien- tific a batter as Cobb was him- self. Billy Goodman (Boston Red Sex) is the same type. And there are several others in both leagues. Does Cobb honestly believe Jackie Robinson of the Brooklyn Dodg- ers wouldn't have been a star in the old days?"

The Rajah also took exception to Cobb's criticism of modern man- agers for too much "shifting around."

"Cobb did the same thing when he managed the Tigers," l-iornsby wrote. "He was too impatient to ha a good manager. Considering his record and shortcomings as manager. where does Cobb come off pointing at managers today?"

Benny is slated to report at Edmundston. New Brunswick on or about the first of July. The Brooklyn Dodgers -have a try- out camp and ball team at Ed- mundston and it is expected that Carson will play with them dur- ing the summer months. Until then Benny will work under the guidance of Johnny Carroll, the Duke University grsduste who will coach the Summerslde teams and who is a close friend of Bill O'Connor the scout for the Brook- lyn Dodgers in the Maritime: and New England.

We know little about Carroll's ability as a coach. We know. however. that he was offered a chance to play in the Brooklyn organization several years ago but turned it down to continue College. He has a university de- gree, has played a lot of ball and on his record should be able to coach pretty well. We lwl" ihst he is especially gifted to handle pitchers and that he will be able to aid Benny at Summer- side. -Then when it comes time for Benny to play Wm) Edmllnil" ston we hope that neither he nor anyone else will be reluctant to see the boy go. 0 O 0 Glen Mstheson.

To Control Building In AirporLAreas

OTTAWA. June 2 - (CP) - The commons today passed legis- lation to restrict the height. use and location of buildings around Canada's airports as a safety measure. '

Third reading was given the leg- islation after Howard Green (PC- Vancouver Quadra) and Gordon Graydon (PC-Peel) objected to the wording of a clause respecting compensation for property adverse- ly affected by the legislation. Transport Minister Chevrier said it must be remembered that "new ground" is being broken by ithe legislation. Careful study had been given the bill but if difficulty arose in carrying out the com- pensation provisions, it could be changed later. He believed the coimpensation provision were quite or.

The Minister said it was the in- ention to zone Canada”: major transcontinental airports first 'and "then go on from -there."

The Sunday ball game between the E. C. A. P. Royals nd the Curran dz Briggs Juniors was a real thriller. It went eleven in- nlngapnd kept getting better as the innings were ticked off. Benny Carson. Charlottetown boy who is slated to play with the currsnltes this year, gave a fine exhibition of hurling. In the later stages of the game he developed a blister on a finger of his throwing hand. and this coupled with the fact that he hasn't had enough work to pitch top-flight ball for nine

innings. gave the Flyers an op- portunity to get to him in the final frame. and he gave way to a local product called Cokey Grady. . . .

Coke pitched good ball for two and one-third innings, We're not giving the orders, but to us he looks as if he might be able to take his regular turn on the mound this year. He has a fast ball that real- ly takes off, and his stuff and con- trol seems oksy too. As a short- stop. Sunday at least. he left something to be desired. Two routine rollers went -through him at more or less critical stages of

the game.

Stan Richard looked like the 1949 edition of Stan in that game Sunday. He handled six chances without a flaw at the hot comer. and hit 9. long triple. Fact is. the old guard. Cox, St. John and Rich- ard, were the boys who really won the game for the Flyers. The new . placements haven't shown us anything to rave about to date. Petty behind the plate seems to have something. Todd at first is "good field. no hit." Mcculloch. one of the old familiar faces. again. please note. pitched excellent ball. allowing only two hits in over six innings. and richly deserved his victory. At the plate. he got two
