Jack chesbro at Hot Springs, Showing

Made Him Famous.
BY GEORGE r. PuLFoRp.


HOT SPRINGS, Ark, March 22.-It
was Elmer Stricklett who invented
or discovered the spitball, say the his
torians Of baseball, but Jack Chesbro
was the first spitball king.
II was at Hot Springs, Ark, that
Stricklett revealed to Chesbro. then
member OF the New York Americans,
the possibilities of the damp delivery,
and Chesbro, a giant in strength. he
came the leading exponent of the de-
livery that same year
No one has heard much of Cnesbro

But. let's look at this proposition
from the angle Chesbro views IT, The
man who pitched SO games. OF which
Al were victories, for the Highlanders
in 1904 has his reasons to believe he
can be as good this year, and 1t
sounds logical
To begin with. Chesbro has given
his arm a long rest. He believes the
muscles which gave way under the
strain of continued pitching have re-
covered their strength and elasticity
and that by working slowly he can
toss his coonskin into the ring and
dare big league batters TO kick 1t
around with impunity.
Billy Hamilton, manager of the
Highlanders, gave Chesbro an uncon-
ditional release. Fred Clarke. Pitts

Chesbro Is working out at his own

TO prove Hamilton was wrong and
that Clarke knew a good thing when
he saw II.
Chesbro has been here two weeks.
Like other old-timers, he realizes that

into shape to shine in fast company,
he will do so here.
He is taking full course of q
