Some Good Pitchers Work So
Seldom They Are Unknown.
Batting Pitching Wrong.

Everywhere one hears the question.
Whats the matter with the pitchers?"
This applies to the general run of slab
men, for there are individual pitchers
with whom there is nothing In partic-
ular the matter. These individuals are
fewer than usual this year, n some
of them have been unable to keep up
consistent work.
Many explanations of the hayward
ness of pitchers have been exploited,
the most general excuse being that in
some mysterious way the new cork
core ball affects the control of the
hurlers. The nearest to a sensible
reason why the new ball should make
any difference is that it is necessary
to wind the yarn tighter about the
core. consequently the cover is sewed
on more tightly and does not give the
pitchers fingers as firm a grip as for
merly. If that is true, how is it that
the successful pitchers are not SINH
larly affected?
The real reason probably is the
growing size of pitching staffs. That
naturally makes less work for the indi-

PARKVIEWS MAKE
A GOOD SHOWING
AGAINST KELLYlTES

The Parkview A. C. showed the best
form of any of the semi-pro teams
that have faced the Tiger barnstorm-
ers thus far. At Wiedenmayer's Park
yesterday afternoon the Tigers won by
a margin of one run over the Views"
the ina score being 2 to 1. 1t was
an interesting contest from the start.
George Boice twirled for the barn
stormers and held the local sand
letters down to three hits. The
leaguers won the game in the eighth
inning, when Dalton doubled, stole
third and raced home on Wyatt Lees
safe smash. The Tigers were the first
to score, making a point in the second
round. The Views tied II up in the
fourth. Lyons was on the mound for
the Parkviews, and although he was
touched up for ten safe wallops he
kept the hits well scattered. The Ben
gals will not play tomorrow. They
visit Orange Friday to play the Orange

DATES CONSIDERED
FOR SCHOOL HARRIERS

Manager Malcolm Ross and Coach
Anderson, of the Barringer hill and
dale squad, are rapidly arranging a
schedule. AS in former years a num-
Der of dual meets will be u off be-
fore the first championship event No
vember a, which is the Eastern district
scholastic c~ross-country affair at
Princeton under the auspices of Prince
ton University. Local runs pending
are those with the De Witt Clinton
squad on October q and the High
School of Commerce pack on the fol-
lowing Saturday. Between the Prince
ton event and the American scholastic
cross-country championships at Phi
adelphia on Thanksgiving Day, Coach
Anderson proposes to have his charges
run the Jersey City High School har-
riers.
The New Jersey interscholastie cross
country championship may be run OF
despite the fact that there is only one
entry besides the Blue and White, the
lone entrant being Stevens School.
For two years the only other con-
tender for the championship cup has
been East Orange. Therefore 1t IS
very probable hat a championship
run will be arranged even though the
other schools in the league do not re-
spond to the invitation to take part.

FIRST HEADPIN
SCHEDULE TO Be
ISSUED SHORTLY

Late this week or early G week
a preliminary schedule for the STAR
headpin tournament will be issued. so
that the bowlers who are to perform
during the early part of the big COM
petition on the Iroquois alleys will have
ample notice.
AS stated recently, Arlington pm
knights are to be on the job opening
nigh Monday, October 16, and it is
understood that, besides having a big
bunch of bowlers on hand, the Airing
tons are to bring their rooters With
them.
Making a lot of noise is always re-
garded as one of the necessary adj
juncts of a bowling match. 1t serves
a good purpose often, but it has also
often robbed many n bowler of a good
score. 1t takes nerve to shoot twelve
balls in a row down an alley, hitting
the headpin every time, and the sort
of announcement" that many a
bowler gets often results in a slip be-
ing made
Those who roll in the STAR headpin
ournamen are always anxious to get
a tally of 100 so that they may receive
one of the %watchfobs offered by the
STAR to those who reach or pass the
century mark. Hundreds of bowlers
start off well, roll half a dozen fine
frames and then. when the strain
comes toward the end, fail to make
good. Their is the time when the root
ers enjoy themselves. Nobody gets any
sympathy when he misses the headpin,
but he always gets plenty of joshing.
The entries continue to come rapidly
in. Some of the recent ones are the
Oliver Pleasure Club, the Atha five,
the Maxwell-Briscoe A and B teams,
the Alpha A and b teams, of Orange;
the Preston five, the Elton A, B, c and
ID teams.

While with Lowell hat yea he won
Is of his 35 games. That year a rule
was adopted barring the employment
of players owned by major league
clubs, and Lowell purchased Wolfgang
outright.
The %youngster decided to get back
into the majors, and his work has
shown steady Improvement. Ills spit
ball, the envy of every pitcher in the
league, has won him another trial.
"Wolfy" proved himself a wonder
about a month ago when he pitched
and won a double-header, banking his
opponents in both contests, and allow
ing but six hits all told. AS he rushed
to the dressing-room after the last
game he encountered Fred Lake, st.
Louis scout, who informed him he had
beer purchased for the Browns.

they bring down the ball for the put

Its worst of all at the home plate.
for there the armored catcher, with
big body protector n shin guards,
meets o as you come in, n squats
on you or on the base path, so that
you can't butt through or squirm past
his huge hulk. AS the result of these
tactics nobody dare slide head first
nowadays. Duffy and Mccarthy, who
were great b-aserunners in the olden
time, have told me hat in their day
the acme of perfection was the head
first slide. twisting the body to one
side and reaching out a hand to touch
the base. The man who tried that now
would get his hand spiked or his neck
broken.
Now, under all baseball law and
the logic of common sense, the base
runner has a right to try for his base,
with a clear field and no football
blocking. l believe that, and l insist
upon it. Furthermore, 1 don't want to
play hog. Half the base is mine, and
I claim hat half whenever / go after
it.
st don't slide past the bag or even

mine. If the baseman stands where
he belongs, on the half base that is
his. or on the further side, he won't
get spiked, and he has a fair even
chance, If he Is active with his hands,
to touch me out. That's square
enough. isn't it?
IF the baseman deliberately comes
over the base. standing in the road so
that | have no chance to slide in ex-
cept by violent contact with him,
whose falt is it if he gets spiked?
Think it all over, and then decide
am l brute. a butcher, or a r~eformer?
l think I'm a real reformer, correcting
abuses and trying to bring back GER
tain phases of the game to their con-
dition in the earlier days"

Mellon Wolfgang. "Wolfy'' for short,
will wear a st. Louis Brown uniform
next season. He pitched the Lowell
team into the New England League
championship this year, ENC Is the
years sensation.
Wolfgang. in addition to being a
classy pitcher-he won 81 of his 80
games-is a splendid hitter, having an
average better than 300; he has at odd
times this year played in the outfield
and at various infeld positions. He
never failed to make good.
Wolfgang is an Albany IN. "
product, where he attracted attention,
with Elmer Steele, of the Pirates. He
was purchased by a Boston National
League scout. and Joined hat team in
1909, being sent to Lowell for develop
ment, after a try-out.

They like to get their hits in practise
almost as well as in a game, particu-
larly IL there is a crowd watching
them. This system is all wrong. The
batsman would get far better prac-
tlse IL he were compelled to match his
wits against a pitchers in practise.
And the substitute pitchers would profit
because it would help them keep con-
troll of their curves and at the same
time give them practise in studying
how to fool a hatsman, even If a
friendly one.
The frequency with which pitchers
are changed during games also mill
tates against their getting regular work
and enough of 1t. Often a mar is
yanked out of a game when he is pitch

pinch hitter until near the end of a
game, unless the pitcher is going badly
and has to be taken out on that ac-
count.
