PIRATES WILL GET
MICHIGAN PITCHER
George SisIer to Finish College
Course Before Leaving
Amateur Ranks.

PITTSBURGH. Pa, May 1.-THE Uni
versity Of Michigan has a great college
pitcher in George Sisler-but there is no
chance Of the collegian becoming a mem
Der OF the Detroit team
Sisler intends to finish his college course
and he has three years to go. At the end
Of that time. II he decides to play pro-
fessional ball. he will join the Pittsburgh
team in the National League
Sisler, unquestionably, on the form he
has shown this season, is the best college
pitcher in the country. His work with
the Wolverines this spring has been re-
markable. even more remarkable than his
bles last spring. Not alone is Sfsler an
exceptional pitcher. but he seems to be a
batsman Of no mean ability.
Here, is the story OF Sisters base ball
existence thus far:
While still lad. being not much more
than kid just out Of knee breeches, he
was signed by the Akron club In the Cen
trail League. He was taken over by Co
lumbus, in the American Association
chased by the Pittsburgh club. Sisler
never worked. and he applied for REIN
statement, as we'll as for an annulment
of his contract, he being under age.
His different petitions were granted and
he still retained his amateur standing
However, there is an understanding
verbal, OF cOurse-between Sisler and the
Pittsburgh club that IL the college man
ever does decide to enter the professional
ranks he will sign with the Pirates.
Branch Hickey, coach Of the Cniver-
sity of Michigan team. is also a member
Of the st. Louis American League team
scouting star. and he tried to get Sisler
to accept a contract. with the Browns
but the player turned down the PROPOSE
ton, for the reasons previously men
toned.
Sisler is a peculiar chap, in view Of
his ability as a: player. He would much
rather give his attention to his studies
than play bali. Furthermore, 1t is very
doubtful il he will ever enter the pro-
fessional ranks. He doesn't care to do
SO, his parents do not want him to take
such a step, and If he Is Of the same
frame of mind three years from now
that he is in at present, his name will
not be enrolled with the Pirates.
Practically every club in the major
league sent em.ssaries to Ann Arbor to
induce Sisler to sign a contract last sum-
mer. Connie Mack tried to get the young
mans signature to a contract, and Detroit
also made overtures.
lege pitcher such as Davis has been with
the New York Highlanders. Davis was
considered the best pitcher in the COL
leges of the country last summer and he
was signed at rather fancy figures by q
scout from the New York club. re has
done nothing worthy OF particular men

Sisler Detroit has not lost a prize.

The foot ball schedule of the Catholic
University has been about completed and
IS now ready for the athletic council to
consider. This will be done at q special
meeting, which will probably be called
some time this week or the first Of next
The coach for the foot ball team for the
coming season will also probably be
selected. at this meeting. There are two
northern men and a local man being
considered for the position, but just who
Will be chosen is not known. The sea-
son will close the Saturday before
Thanksgiving day, which means there
will be no game played on Thanksgiving.
This will be the first year that the team
has not played on Thanksgiving day. The
team was scheduled to meet George
Washington University on that day, but
the game was Cancelled by G. w. T.,
owing to the fact that 1t was unable to
place team on the field. In years gone
by the attendance on Thanksgiving day
has not been large and Manager Bob
SILK decided to play the Saturday before
and close the schedule on that date.

Willie Lesser. fourteen, champion pitch

FIRST CURVED BALL.
Princeton Statisticians Claim Honor
for 7. M. Mann of '76 Glass.

NEW YORK, May 17.-Statisticians Of
athletics at Princeton University have
entered a claim for j. NJ. Mann. &c. as
the discoverer of the art of curve pitch
ing According to base ball lore avail
able at Princeton, Mann was the star
pitcher of the college team known as
the Nassau nine at that time.
During the fall of 1874 Mann pitched
several games in one week and his Pc
culiar delivery wore the skin from the
tips Of the fingers. In the final contest
of the week he was obliged to play third
base. Late in the game he was forced
TO relieve the pitcher in order to save
the game Owing to the tender condi-
ton of his fingers, Mann was Obliged to
throw the ball with little or no grip.
He Immediately noticed that his deliy-
cry was breaking in an odd manner
which caused opposing batters to strike
out. During the winter months he con-
tinued TO experiment and in the spring
blossomed out as pitcher with q real
outcurve at his command.

boys department has secured Analostan
Island for its first carnival OF sports, to
be held May 81, starting at pm. in the
afternoon. Interest among the club atf-
1etes has reached q high stage and for
the past three weeks groups of runners
from the club have been using the speed
way to train for the events. The historic
athletic field OF the former Columbia
Athletic Club will be used for the games.
1t was here that Wefers and Duffy
startled the athletic world by their per-
formances in seasons now far removed.
The program will include track and field
events, throwing the base ball for ac-
curacy. rircling the bases against time
and fungo hitting and will conclude with q
base ball game between two picked teams
from the club. From present indica-
lions the events will be filled with prac-
tically every athlete OF the club. The
