TWO OLD TIMERS OUT OF PICTURE Two ancient and honored members of the major league pitching frater nity were discharged from the big show this week with the information that their services were no longer re quired.. They were Leslie Joseph Bush and Stanley Coveleskie, the noisiest and most subdued players respectively, in the game. Assuming that their major league careers are ended, since club of both leagues waived on their services, baseball loses two right-handers who have contributed a wealth of pitch ing greatness to its archives. When in his heyda yeach ranked with the best of the past and present. But they are gone, and, from now on memory and the printed records will have to serve. Joe Push, besides having his en viable record as a great pitcher. could imitate more barnyard fowls birds and beasts of the forest and all domestic animals than any player in baseball. With a peculiar rasping voice, he could summon more whist les, cackles, chirps, crowing, barking and general outbursts of animal life than any one could imagine. Stanley Coveskie was just the op posite temperament. If he ever said more than two words at once during his career no one seems to have heard him. Silent, pensive and ever brood ing this great Pole waded thru the best years that baseball has known and wound up with an enviable pitch ing record. When he was with the Senators they prided upon having the three most silent men in baseball Coveleskie, Ossie Bluege and Alex Ferguson and the loudest, Bush.
