Lefty" Schwenk, pitcher of the
South Michigan league team of
Saginaw, has Just hung up a rec
ord which is believed to be un.
equaled in recent years of organ
lied baseball. In four DAYS he
pitched four full games and fin.
1shed another-36 innings in all.
He struck out 33 men In SO in
nings and allowed 81 hits, which
Melted his opponents seven runs.
The "occipital blow" used by
Gunboat Smith is not a new one.
The "occipital blow" as the read
er may we'll presume, is delivered
on the ociput, which is the back
of the head. This blow, according
to w. F. Corbett, an Australian
sport expert, is the same as that
which in Australia is termed a
rabbit-killer" blow and struck
with the edge of the hand. A
ehopplng stroke, it is crude look
ing and appears awkwardly deliv-
cred, though highly effective. and
generally brings about in the re-
ciplent a strong desire to lie on
MS back for some 10 seconds. and
oIten longer. Old Bob Fitzsim-
mons often used 1t with results
and 1t was this blow that sent the
OLD Akron giant, Gus Rubin. to
the bourne from which no fighter
