In CIarksburg the sentiment be-

Wen divided. The city has for some
time been known as a Wesleyan"
town Eforsthe reason that the Meth.
odists have staged many big athletic
events here! On the other hand,
west Virginia, with a large and in1u:
entail alumni body, is very strong,
and her menscan be counted upon for
liberal support. Marietta College,
due many long years of healthy and
spirited athletic rivalry with both
West Virginia and Wesleyan, has de-
yeloped q large following throughout
the State of West Virginia. In fact,
Il can be truthfully said that no for

strong indications of the importance

ers stood exactly on a line, and the
pitchers swung and threw at the same
instant. Three or four times the balls
seemed to leave their hands at the
same instant and in every such case
the crack of Johnson's ball against

advance OF that Of Hughes bali into

SO nothing was decided.
The old timers will tell you that
Amos Rusie had more speed than
johnson has. Rusie did have mar
velous speed, but 1 doubt whether he
threw a ball as rapidly as he seemed
to do. His speed vas more decep-
tive than J%ohnson's.

Hutchinson, then the star Of Anson's
team, was faster than anyone and

than that of the great Johnson.

in the world ever threw a ball any
faster than Roger Bresnahan did
when he appeared at Washington as
a pitcher. He had tremendous speed,

The light ball when hit travels
far, the heavy ball when hit almost

by them all.

A few years ago 1t was style to send
in the weak pitchers against Johnson,
the other managers figuring johnson
to win anyhow, and then use their

today the managers are sending in
their best against johnson, in fact,
they did SO a great part of the time
last year, and they are getting away

Christy Mathewson, in his signed
articles, admits at last that Manager
McGraw has made a mistake. For
three seasons Matty always had an
alibi ready every time McGraw was
apparently outwittedS or beaten at his
WI game; but when Chalmers was
passed up by McGraw and signed by
Pat Moran, there was not a loophoIe
for the famous pitcher, and he explain
ed matters as gracefully as he could
for McGraw.
According to the article, Pat Moran
bumped into Chalmers by accident and
George asked Pat to give him a chance
to come back, as the Giants manager
had decided to turn him over to Jersey
City. That goes pretty well for ar
alibi but it is known absolutely that

The speed with which pitchers hurl
a baseball has perhaps caused more
disputes among ball players than any
other thing In the game. 1t was up
to Walter Johnson, the Coffeyville cy-
clone, to put a stopper on that argu.
ment, but even now, while nine out
Of ten of the players declare johnson
throws a baseball faster than any
man ever did the other tenth dispute
the point.
There have been many interesting
experiments made in timing pitched
balls, and not one has proved ac-
curate enough to tell even the differ.
enec between the fast ball of a mod
erately slow pitcher and the speediest
of Johnson's fast ones. The differ.
ence is 0 small to express in frac.
lions Of seconds. and no instrument
yet devised has been able to record it
accurately.
Among the speed pitchers of today
Joe Wood of Boston and Grover Alex

backed by many to be faster than

ence save by the way the ball looks
when one is batting of catching-and
the eye is very easily deceived.
