to the height of perfection. He doesn't
sit in a rocking chair. But he sits on
his heels. And while crouched on the
rear view of his pedals he can throw
just about twice as accurately and
twice as speedily as any other man set
firmly on his feet for peg.

Jimmy Archer behind the bat is the
persOnificatiOn of athletic grace 1t is
worth the price of admission alone to
see him work. Fully three-quarters Of
the time he squats on his heels firm as
a deep-seated rock. He is a well knit
fellow. muscled like a Greek runner,
but far from giant proportions. Yet
while balanced on the backs of his
shoes he can take the speediest shoots
Of Ed Reulbach without rocking an
inch, and Reulbach, when pushing them
over, is renowned for terrific speed.
Every time Hughie Jennings sees
Archer's name in print he has con-
vulsiOn. For the toW-headed leader of
the Tigers canned" Archer for just
these virtues which have made him an
Idol in the National league. Hughie
couldn't see Jimmy's speciality of squat
ting with a spyglass. It didn't appeal
to him as baseball ethics He tried to
make Archer change his style. The
catcher refused to be coached. So he
was benched for a long time, and really
with Detroit never had a chance to
prove his worth. He was forced to sit
day after day and watch a lot of sec

There's a slight distinction between the

pitchers, crossing batsmen and keeping
runners glued to the sacks.

pummels the pill as does the mission

there is no man before the public who
