BISHOP
IN E SPORTS

Syracuse. N. V, Feb. 2.-One of the
most prominent prclates in western
New York is Bishop Patrick 4. Lud-
den whose diocese is that of Syracuse.
He ome III point blank in favor Of
pastiming on Sunday, and he goes
down solid on the proposition as a
moral institution tina ought to be es-
tablished.
Says Bishop Ludden: 81 am in
of Sunday baseball"
Il would much prefer that the
young men went to the baseball game
on Sunday afternoon than that they
hang around the saloons or stand on
the corners and make insulting re-
marks about people that pass. They
get out in the fresh air.; they can
abuse the umpire. which gives them a
lot of fun, muse the crowd and does
not hurt n one.
Il consider baseball one of the
cleanest sports. The hours for serv-
ice arc such that a baseball game does
not interfere with church Worship.
The man who has to work all
week and has no time for recreation
or amusement would be far better off
at Il baseball game on Sunday after
noon than hanging around a saloon
or going out to the dance hall"

Title in Match in New
York Feb. z

New York, Feb. 2-The next big
professional billiard match will be de-
cided in the ball room Of the Hotel
Astor on February z.
It will be the second contest within
q few months between Willie Hoppe
the worlds champion, and George Suit
ton for the 1872 balk line title. Sutton
was disappointed by his showing
against Hoppe in the match played at
Garden on Nov. %. On that occasion
he raj beaten. by 500 points to 234.
Hoppe played none too well and
both attributed their poor showing to
the temperature of the concert hall,
which affected the ivory balls and re-
duced their r%esilency.
The table, located in the middle Of
the ballroom floor. will be surround

Sutton will play in Chicago until a
week before the game. He will then
come to New York and do his final
work at Maurice Days.
Speaking of the prospective game.
George F. Slosson said the other day:

FOOTBALL RULES
COMMITTEE MEETS

New York. Feb. 2.-Dr. III. l.. Will
liams of Minnesota university is in
New York today attending the meet
ing of the football rules committee.
The Gopher coach attended the
meeting Of the National Collegiate
Athletic association in New York. Dc
cember %. AT that meeting, DIR. Will
liams indicated the changes he would
seek in the football rules. Since the
close of the football season he has de-
clared that the rules are generally
satisfactory m he wants them tam
percd with as little as possible. The
only material change he has advocat-
the forward pass by doing away with
the twenty-yard rule. He is in favor
of removing all restrictions except that
the receiver must catch 1t before IL
strikes the ground.
The most cardinal fault of the rules
as they stand according to the coach.
is that there is too much advantage on
a wet day or on wet grounds for an
inferior team. The way things stand
now. he said. the most brilliant attack
is nullified if climate conditions arc
not right.
The opposition to the forward pass
and reformed football generally
which was strong i'm the east for a
time. had died down considerably
"icH luc Interchangeable cOmmlttC
mel In December. Experts admit that
the forward pass has come to stay and
coaches cast and west are expected to
devote greater attention to 1t next sea-
son than ever before.
The east is just beginning to real
ize the possibilities of the forward
pass" DIR. Williams said. when 1t
was first put on the rule books, the
east was inclined to scorn it's use. The
west, however, OF it up from the
start and has now brought it to a high
stage of development"
Everyone admits hat the west is
far ahead Of the east in new football
and in the utilization of the forward
pass especially. Western teams won
such success with 1t that the eastern.
ers turned their eyes across the ALE
ghanies and In the last. year or two
have taken 1t up in earnest. Most of
the objection to the pass came orig
inally from the east. but since that
section Of the country has taken it up
the sentiment has died out almost en-
tirely. 1 think that when the eastern
teams grasp the possibilities of the for.
ward pass they will not listen to its
removal.

WET SLANTERS
RARE IN AMERICA
Big League Has But Few
Spit-B allers on Its Roster
of Pitchers

New York. Feb. 2.--Five of the
eight American league clubs are with
out Il single out-and-out spitball
pitcher. Philadelphia. Boston. De-
troit. Cleveland and Washington all
manage to get along without the saliva
.slanters. Chicago has one IF the best
ever developed in either league-Ed.
the only real II with the St. Louis
Browns.
The Yankees. though. have enough
of them to stock any ordinary club
with pitchers. Two of them are ef-
fective without it, but use it so fire.
quently that to all intents and prr-
poses they are "spitters." The other
two w practically everything to the
damp delivery. Neither Russ Ford
Ford nor Ray Fisher has ever shown
world-heating form when depending
solely on the ordinary run of curves
and speed.
Used in Pincllcs.
Jack Quinn often fakes the delivery
as Bugs RAYMOND did. but it was his
success with it that made him a SCH
sation in the miners and earned for
him a chance to show his stuff in the
big leagues. In the pinches it is his
chief stock in trade.
Mcconnell, the delegate from
Rochester and counted Upon to show
American league form next season
does not restrict himself to the spit.
ter, but in his case. as in Quinn's the
flip invented by Elmer Stricklett it al.
ways called into service when trouble
bobs up.
Granting that Mcconnell will make
the team. more than half the pitchers
with whom Wolverton will start his
chase after the Athletics will he spit
ball throwcrs. Which means that
New York, with nothing that wen re-
sembles a nut" will next season have
about as freaky a collection of box
artists as ever drew salary from one
club.
If. in addition to the "spitters'
mentioned. Wolverton elects to carry
Caldwell. Vaughn and Warhop. he
will have seven pitchers. not all OF
whom is absolutely normal in Il base
ball sense. a spitball thrower always
has been and always will be classed ms
something of a freak. Wolverton has
four of them.
A left-hander. though there are
more than a few playing ball, is still
rare enough to be an odditN. Jim
Vaughn is a southpaw. Warhop's un.
derhand delivery. the only II of its
kind in the major leagues. qualities for
him and the pitcher who can hit and
run the bases like Ray Caldwell sure
ly belongs to the class.
Giants Have But One.
McGraw. like several other Nation
al league managers. does not helicve
in tho splitter and will not permit his
pitchers to use it. Bugs" Raymond
is the only recognized purveEor of the
wet stuff that eve worc II Giant uni

staff. but cxccpt when McGraw is far
far away he does lot work at his
trade.
A few vars ago Leon Ames picked

and under some other manager might
have done much with it. Such curves
as Ames already had. coupled with !;

stated that any one who would desire
to grapple with him would first be
obliged to put the shoulders of the

can do it. He has already defeated
Roller. Westergaard. Sampson and a
few of the lesser lights. He is
matched to meet Charles Cutler and
Henry Ordemann later in the winter.
If he can put these men on The blink

WAGNER is IN AGAIN.

Hans Wagner. National league bat
ting champion ana heavyweight short
stop on tho Pittshurg club. has jumped
into second childhood. At least his
actions during the past zee should
lead one to believe that the big league
star had weakened. for he signed up
his 1912 contract with the Pirates
without as much as threatening to quit
tho game. There's something wrong
somewhere. for Wagner just dotes on
announcing his retirement from the
game.
