Gregg is the most sensational
pitcher since WaAaeH was In his
prime. He has everything the ''Rube"
ever had and in addition head that
Is not filed with sawdust.
Gregg says his ability to serve wide,
sharp curves which have
baffled every team In the league, Is
due TO the powerful grip he acquired
while working as plasterer. He
recommends trowel welding to ambi-
tious beavers.
The southpaw sensation has bet
ter record than Grover Alexander, the
National league marvel, and a better
record than Christy Mathewson made

Gregg has beaten every club In the
league and some of them a couple Of
tines. He handed the Athletics their
frst shutout. He lost twice to De-
lkroit. In one OF these games FIVE

third defeat was by New York after
