Sir Charles Dixie once spoke with

told him he would be coming to Eng

lunch and gave him day fourteen
months later, assuring him he would
give him distinctively English lunch.

Sam ("Wahoo") Crawford of Detroit

Pitcher Mullin of the Tigers does
not believe that there is a batsman in
the league today who can place a ball
where he wants it.
There are number of players who
claim they can place a ball, but there
was only one that ever thought could
do It," says Mullin. THAT was Willie
Keller. think he was one of the
greatest hitters the game ever pro-
duced He seemed to know exactly
where every ball he hit was going to
land. l saw him bunt perfectly with
two out and three on In the ninth inn
ing. No batsman would have attempt
ed to do a thing of that kind unless
he had perfect confidence in his abil-
ity to lay the ball down just where he
wanted it. Keller rolled the ball be-
tween the pitchers box and third base
so accurately that the man on the
base scored easily.

out any special effort. Crawford is al
so hard luck hitter. Many of his
high drives ought to go for doubles,
triples and even home runs, but Sam
seems to have the misfortune to hit in
a fielder's territory more often than
any other hitting player. Ed Dele
hanty was another natural hitter-he
was probably even better than Craw
ford in his time. Good natural hitters
are scarce in professional baseball"
