PITCHERS WHO
HAVE come BACK

There have been many instances
where ball players. and especially
pitchers, have been sent into the minor
leagues from fast company because
they could not deliver any longer, only
to come back and be stars. Eddie
Karger OF the Boston team, who just
now holds the distinction OF being the
best pitcher in the American league
was let out by two major league clubs
and sent to the minors. Put he has
come back with vengeance, and is the
mainstay of the Boston team On the
rubber.
Karger was a star six years ago at
ST. Louis, was traded to Cincinnati,
where he failed to make good, and then
drifted to st. Paul, where he did only
fairly well, but he is another Mathew
son for Boston.
Boston has another pitcher with a
similar experience. Hall. Hail was
with Cleveland, but failed, was shifted
to Columbus, where he failed to de-
liver, and finally got another chance at
ST. Paul, where he made good and Bos-
ton has made good use of him since he
Joined that team.

Baseball
BASEBALL IS ALL
Right AS IT IS

Thinkers with baseball law are try
ing to change the game so that batting
might increase. Various suggestions
have been made, some of them worthy
and some Of them absurd.
One writer goes so far as to say that
return to the old style in which the
batsman asks for high ball, low ball
or any kind of ball he desires, might
solve the so-called problem This writ.
er was not trying to be humorous, bur
was dead serious, which reflects some
of the absurdities one occasionally en-
counters in baseball literature.
In all the mass OF suggestions TO pro-
mote batting, nobody has pointed out
how present day baseball was so dis
gustingly unsatisfactory that 1t ought
to be changed at all. .!
Would a fan like an IS to Z game
better than a 2 to contest? What is
wrong with modern baseball?
The people want lot of hitting, they
answer. How do they know they do?
Do the men who go out to games every
day want to see two and a half hours
of aimless slugging? Possibly the man
who sees one game year would like
to see quarter season of hitting on
the one day he enriches the clubs
treasury, but how about the others
who go regularly and are the backbone
and support of the game? ...
To take drastic legislation to increase
hitting would simply ruin the game.
1t would put inferior managers on a
footing with the competent managers.
Nobody hears the Macks, Jenningses,
McGraws, Clarkes and Chances making
a wall about the lack of hitting. These
shrewd managers are always able to
gather about them number of men
who are able. to worry pitcher once
in awhile. Look at the Collinses, Muir
phys Bakers, Davises, Cobbs, Craw-
fords, Doyles, Bridwells, Wagners,
Leaches, Millers, Thinkers and Hofmans.
They are not thinking much about the
pre- eminence of the pitcher.
The game as it is played today cam
not be improved. 1t is battle Of wits,
with one team trying desperately to
outguess the other and the opponent
equally on the alert to know what is
going on. .-s 80 - . ...s .3...@
I In the game today a hit has some
meaning. We are sure to see a contest
and not eighreen men in a rough, wit
less, leather-maIling duel. The pitch-
ers today are good. That is a fact.
When a Mathewsou. Bender, Joss or
Walsh is carded to perform you can
generally take 1t for granted that you
will see high class work in the box.
But there is plenty of good, solid
hitting all the time. There is no need
to return to old cat or town ball. The
sport Is satisfactory to the majority of
persons that support the game today,
even is some superannuated writer. al

Chicago, Aug 13.--With one of the
largest fields ever entered, the all.
round A, A. championship events, to
take place in Chicago next Saturday,
promises to be the most successful and
hotly contested in the history of track
athletics. In
With Martin Sheridan, the present
title-holder out of it, there is much
conjecturing among followers of the
game as to the logical candidate to
succeed him. On form John r. Kill
patrick looks like the man. Fitzpatrick
is the Yale football and track star and
has been training vigorously for the
past month at PRAYERS island prepar-
ing for next Saturdays. contest.
In the sprints Fitzpatrick is expected
to shine particularly, although his
ability in the field events is far from
mediocre.
That Fitzpatrick viii have far from
an easy victory is evident by the fact
that there will be such men. pitted
against him as Ellery Clark of the B.
A. A. and John Brederman of Dart
mouth. both former title-holders Then,
too, there are Vic Kennard the ex-
Harvard star, Draper of Notre Dame
and Gish of Seattle, all of whom are
athletes of the first rank.
Among the other entrants are John
