WHY PITCHERS CANNOT SLUG
Veteran Jim Mcclure Says ivs Be.
cause Heavy Hitters Dodge the
Position Of Twlrier.

He must be a pitcher; he can't hit
the ball" How often one hears that
conclusion by the fans and 1t raises
the question: Why are pitchers al.
most always poor hitters?
Jim Mcclure, Tiger scout, says that
one Of the reasons Is that when base
ball men find out that they can't be
good hitters they develop themselves
Into pitchers. And vice versa. when
they find thst they cant be pitchers.
they make stab at developing them.
selves into hitters and become out.
fielders.
Veach. for instance. the new Tiger
outfielder and slugger from Indian.
apolis. tried two years ago to be Q
pitcher. He found. however, that he
was going to be SO valuable as q hit.
ter that he decided to give up the
hurling stunt. at which he could be
only mediocre, and give his attention
to the development Of his hitting.
The result has been that he has hit
himself into the big league with ex.
ccllent prospects Of staying there.
Veach certainly has an arm that
is great, all right. He has shown It In
his pegs. or course, after using It
as he has for throwing from the out.
field. he has tossed away his chances
Of becoming a pitcher again.
Cashion. the big 220.pound pitcher
with the Nationals. is a man whom
Clark Griffith tried to make into an
outfielder. Cashion started in to hit
as II he meant to be among those in
the 300 class. but he failed to make
good and Griffith returned him to the
regular pitching staff.

This Combination--0ives Pow
erful Leverage.

rIIE half nelson is the, primal hold
in wrestling. 1t is considered the
simplest grip in the business, yet
1t is important, for an infinite
number of combinations may be Sc

most important of these is the crotch,

ling; but Greco.Roman is only half
wrestling-it bars half the holds.
Some of my hardest matches have
been won by securing the half nelson
in conjunction with the CROTCH" says
the worlds champion. II won the
American title the first time by the
use Of this combination. jenkins was
tough customer-strong, rough and
capable Of great endurance. When
secured the crotch and half nelson,
picked Jenkins up bodily and slammed
him to the mat four times in success
sion, II robbed him Of his strength and
I won in hurry.
"1n many of my hardest matches !
have secured the crotch hold FIRST by
ruse to get some other grip. Then
I fastened on half nelson and re.
tanned the combination until my oppo.
nent succumbed. I defeated Yussuf
Mahmout, the great Bulgarian wrest.

however, and he fell into It. going
down to defeat in two bouts on q half
