SPIT BALL ON THE WANE.

Chance Says This Form Of Delivery Is
Slowly Being Eschewed.
Chicago, Sept 16.-'Spit balP' pitchers
are slowly giving up that form of delivery
as their sole stock in trade and are re-
turning to the old style of pitching, using
the moist ball only to mix them up on the
batter, as is done with the curve and
change of pace, according to Frank
Chance, manager of the Cubs, champions
of the National league.
1t is the opinion of the peerless leader"
of the Cubs that the time is not far dis
tant when the pitchers that will be known
as spit BALI artists, as many are today,
will be scarce.
The reason for this is two-fold, he says
First and foremost the cause is that the
batters are hitting that kind of pitching
to sIne e fb year Mnen ,ne Daiers oegln
has to be evolved The second reason is
that few pitchers can stand the strain
for more than two or three seasons and
when they are all in from using the
spit balP' their arms are not usually able
to return to the old style of work and
get away with it.
