choose Walsh, Mathewson, John

Record Brings Praise.
Mathewson has one record that
probably never will be equaled by a
slabman. He pitched in two post
season series without losing a con-
test. In 1906. he shut out Connie
Mack's team in the worlds strug-
gle three times and in the 1910
series between the two New York
teams he won three out of four
games credited to his club. Twice
he has pitched no-hit contests. In
1902 he scored victory of this kind
against st. Louis. June 10, 1905, he
repeated, beating the Cubs, l to 0.
But the most amazing part Of Mat

Eddie never pitched for any pro-
fessional team except the Athletics.
Mack got him direct from Gettys-
burg college. His first year out
Plank landed seventeen victories
and was on the short side eleven
times. In 1908 he fell below the
