tiveS of the Southwest.


Chicago, Sept. 5-Some startling tales
are creeping eastward regarding the per
.formances Of Ralph Rapidfire. the latest
pitching phenomenon. recently unearthed
in Coldstream. Ariz. As the leading
twirler Of the local club. his record to
date has been such that major league
clubs as far east as Chicago have already
notified their scouts 70 hurry to Cold
stream TO size Rapidfire up He is credit
ed with the most unusual form OF wind
up ever seen among professional baseball
pitchers
II is said by those who have seen him
pitch that his style closely resembles the
action Of a hammer thrower Just before
hurting the weight He uses from two to
three complete turns before delivering the
ban. and can shoot the sphere either un-
derhand or overland Rapidfre relies al
most entirely on speed. seldom using
curve delivery. Despite the sameness of
his delivery. he has been most successful
in his first season with minor league
club. In the nine games ne has pitched
10 date. every one has been a victory for
his own team. and six have been shut
outs 4 new record no-hit game IS claim
ed for Rapidfre by mis- admirers. In
recent contest he shut out the opposing
team without a hit or without a player
reaching first base. Only twenty-six bat
ters faced him in nine innings. This odd
ity IN baseball is accounted for by the
fact that one batter became 50 excited
by Rapiddre's eccentric action in the box
that he struck twice at each ball deliv-
cred. thus constituting two outs
