Deeds of Amos RuSie
Are Recalled in West

San Francisco, July 15-Amos Rusie,
the greatest ever, who has been breez-
ing around the north for a few days,
has set a number OF old-time bugs to
bringing back stories of the old days,
when Rusie was there with that $4,000
arm. There are many fans who will tell
you to-day that Amos Rusie was the
greatest pitcher that ever threw a ball.
Every now and then you will hear the
claim advanced that a certain pitcher has
greater speed than Rusie, for Rusie and
speed mean the same thing. Not only
was he the speediest thrower that ever
faced a oatsman, but he had about as
hard a breaking curve as ever batsman
has been called on to fathom. And con-
troll? All, there is where Amos did shine!
When It was to 2, and the batter might
reasonably expect a fast one, Amos
dished up a curve that broke as fast as
leaping trout and it was all of with the
batter.
Amos was a bad twirler for the batter,

HOODOO is FEARED
BY THE ATHLETICS

II active and well-trained SUI
perstitions would win games, the
Athletics would never lose. They
have more of that stun to the
square inch than nine out of ten
clubs. Here's where the fans are
let in on a couple.
As everybody knows, the in
ieIders have a practice ball that
they throw around. during the
time that the pitcher is warming
up.
That ball cannot be thrown
back to the Athletic bench at
random. No, stree. 1t has to go
through the mystic channels. or
else the game Is gummed. The
last man to handle that ball must
be Claude Derrick. He throws 1t
to Jack Barry, who is hors du
combat, or has a bum runner,
and when Jack gets the ball he
touches John Shibe on the knee.
That repels any hoodoo.
When the pitcher takes his
place to start things OFF and to
warm up between innings, the
last ball must go to Eddie Col
Inns and then back straight to
the twirler. Nobody else Is al
lowed to catch the last ball, which
the catcher usually smashes down
to second. That is to keep on
the hoodoo.
The Washington herald., 1911-07-16

but good one for the catcher. He threw
what is known as the light ball Travel
ing over the plate like buckshot, it was
light as a feather IN the catcher's mitt,
and easy to handle. Parke Wilson, who
managed the old Seattle club, was one
of Amos favorite catchers in early days.
But a thing happened in Chicago one
day. that made Amos and his arm but a
memory. Trying to catch Bill Lange of
first base, the throw snapped something
in that pitching arm. He finished the
game. stalling through with a floating
curve, and he won 1t, too, but before he
reached his hotel the arm was badly
swollen and would not yield to treat
ment The best specialists in New York
and Chicago looked at that $4,000 arm,
but could do nothing.
Friedman, with whom Rusie was con-
stantly at war, thought the great pitcher
was stalling to get away from New
York, and refused to believe that Giant
Amos had reached the end of his string.

ORIGIN OF FAN"
Where the Word Used for Baseball
Enthusiasts Comes From.

Where the Word Used for Baseball
Enthusiasts Comes From.
From the Richmond TimesDisTstch.
Fan" as all red-bIooded Americans
know, is the bit of slang which denotes
the baseball enthusiast The derivation
of this word. which appears about Co.,
100000 times each year on the sporting
pages Of American newspapers, is in
doubt The Boston Globe has been con-
Quoting a sort Of investigation Of the
parentage Of the word, and a number of
people have offered explanations.
It has been thought-and a great many
anti-baseball folk agree in the view
that fan" is an abbreviation of fan
attic" There are many, however, who
stoutly contend that the word has an
other source. A Dorchester, Mass, man
says, for instance:
ITO say we are fans because of
fanatics is too clumsy a word, and an
noys us. Look at a baseball crowd aris-
arms and forms unfold into bedlam, and
you see a fan of humans spreading over
the vista of the stands. That sight
would explain the term better"
1t has also been suggested that the
word comes from the action of batter
who fans the air instead of hitting
the ball The crowd on the bleachers
tries to rattle" him, confuse him, and,
therefore, those who cause him to fan
are called fans" Probably there are
other theories as to the origin of this
words; at any rate. those who have a
brainstorm when a man on the home
teams puts 'three-bagger'' over can
ponder over this problem on rainy days

Hudson River ROwerS
Haze Exciting Time

New York. July 15.-Struggling against
the most unfavorable water conditions,
the oarsmen who took part in the sixth
annual regatta of the Hudson River
Rowing Association to-day encountered
many unforeseen difficulties. The races
were rowed over the Palisades course.
formerly known as the old Gutenberg
course. which was selected by the COM
mittee because 1t is protected by the high
cliffs of the west shore. An incoming
tide and a stiff wind from the southeast
upset all calculations and proved a detri-
ment not only to the safety, but also
to the Craftsmanship of the contestants.
Both centipede boats that entered the
last race were swamped before half the
distance had been covered, and Joe As
pen, of the Hudson Boat Club, was
forced overheard while rowing in the in
termediate singles, when he ran his gig
onto a floating log. In all cases, the
oarsmen swan well enough to keep
above water until help reached them.
The gale that swept the river started
the trouble early by blowing George
King. jr., so steadily toward the shore
that he was practically forced to abandon
the racing game in order to save him
self. N Fyffee, of the Waverley Boat
Club, was the only other contestant.
With the outside course in his favor, he
had an easy time of it, and won by five
lengths. The Hudsons redeemed this de-
feat by beating the Waverly pair in the
race for the Junior double gigs by at
least twenty lengths.
It was in the third race, for intermediate
single gigs, that AspelI met with his ac-
cident.
The race for the Riverside Cup for
senior four-oared barges proved the best
OF the day. The home club. the Actives

Says a writer in the Detroit Free Press:
Little Kid" Elberfeld is the Nemesis
Of big Edgar Willett. For some reason
or other Willett can't pitch to Kid"
without hitting him or walking him.
Three times in two games Elberfeld faced
Willett and twice Elberfeld was hit by q
pitched ball and another time he walked.
When Mitchell was taken out of the
box Sunday with two runners on base
and two out in the ninth inning, EIber-
field was the first man to face willett.
Mr.. Elberfeld walked. That sealed VIII
lett's doom.
''EIberfeld was the batter was after"
said WiIlett after the game. 81 wanted
to get him" That base on balls to
Elberfeld was costly. He scored the
winning run for the Nationals.
Elberfeld was up twice Monday and
each time Willett hit him with a pitched
ball
II guess it's because he tries to cut
them across my chest" said Elberfeld

son oarsmen by five lengths.
1t was in the Junior centipede event
that the second mishap occurred. The
Union crew shipped so much water In
the first quarter mile that their boat was
down to the water level The rowers
continued heroicaIly, but were soon COM
PEELED to give up the ship and swim to-
ward shore. Their opponents from the
Nonpareil Club Jared slightly better,
managing to keep above water until the
finish. Just after passing the line the
boat went down and the men were res
cued by some fellow-members.
