Y OWEN WILSON, whose serV-
ices we've acquired by the
y Pirates through the medium
Of the draft five years ago, seems
entitled to another cognomen this
year other than tile one that has
been bestowed on him-"The King
Pin Smter of Three Baggers."
just as Lew Richie has been dubbed
the Giant Killer, so should the
Pirate right fielder be termed the
cub Slayer," for figures do not
lie, and the figures show that J
owen did more than his share to-
ward winning several games re-
corded rs Pirate victories and Cub
defeats.
Wilson always was a timely hit
ter-he batted in over 100 runs last
year-and his performance with
the stick this season shows that he
is deserving of some votes that are
to be cast by the newspaper jury
as being the most valuable player
to his team. and therefore entitled
to a Chalmers car. Fans have
nothing to say in this competition,
which is a silent one but the fig
ures speak. and they show that
Wilson ought to be extremely pop
ular in New York and extremely
unpopular in Chicago. Here is
what close analysis of the box
SCORES reveals:
April 23-Pittsburg defeated Chi
cago. to 3, Wilson batting in two
Of the Pirates runs, crossing the
plate once himself and staving off
rally by the Cubs in the ninth
inning by making a sensational
catch Of Zmmermans bid for a
home run when Tinker and Hof-
man were on the bases.
May 26-Pittsburq defeated Chi
cago, to l, Wilson batting in two
of the Pirates talies with a double
and scoring their third run.
September 3-Pittsbure defeated
Chicago, to 0, Wilson batting in
one run.
September 4-Pittsburg defeated
Chicago, to 2, Wilson settling is
sue of game by polling homer in
eighth inning when score was tied
and when Wagner and Miller were
on the bases.
Wilson has ripped off "a three
baggers, getting seventeen of these
hits off pitchers Of teams of his
own section and the same number
off hurlers on clubs from the region
east Of the Alleghenies, which would
indicate that in the National league
the East has it on the West this
year so far as curvers go. The "a
three baggers made this yea by
Wilson are enumerated below:
April 1911 Geyer. St. Louis.
April 1911 SalIee, St. Louis.
April 23-Off Brown, Chicago.

after Heating. One of their scouts
looked him over and was highly
impressed with his work. l am
afraid Jennings may put in a draft
for him. If they do, the Atlanta
club will lose the best younster I
ever saw in action"
NOW that Dug Harrison is lost
to the Crackers. it means
lot of hard work for Billy Smith
to develop another youngster as
promising. But it was almost a
cinch that HARRISON would be
nailed, and why the local directors
didn't cover him" is far beyond
me. They saw to it that Agler
was sailed, yet there was more
chance Of HARRISON being drafted
than there was that a major league
club would put in a bid for the
first baseman.

Not that his fielding wasn't good
enough. Goodness knows that boy
is a regular Hal Chase on the de-
