SH1BE PARK, June 23.-The first ball
ever pitched by Minot Crowell, erstwhile
student of Brown, In the big push was
a strike. SO was the second. and behold,
| a new youngster was started on career
that may develop him into a second Rube
Waddell or send him to the bush In a
week.
Old timers who watched the youth
warm up paid the time worn tribute that
has always been paid to Connie Mack
he knew sonethinE-meaning, in this par
tlcular instance. Mister McGlllicuddy
Crowell also knows something, appar-
emily. He famed Plpp in the start OF
the second inning, and when he came to
the bat in the Mackmen's half OF the
same session. the fans gave him the
grund old rally howl of greeting. or
course, when he gets olubbed all over the
field, as he will, some day, like the best
OF them, the fans will roast him to a
finish, but that Is part of the game.
Just to show the rabid students Of the
dope how good Crowell looked. II may
be mentioned that II took the Yankees
five innings to get their first hit. I'm
fortunately a man had walked and he
scored on the hit.
The outstanding feature of the FIRST
game was the coaching OF Conway, who
will be remembered as big league third
DaSenan OF TWO days experience, having
broken into the game last Saturday He
kept up a running fire of announcement.
directed mainly at Crowell. But just to
show he was not impartial he yelled,
That's the way, Stuffy, old boy" when
McInnes, young first baseman of somo
promise, made nice catch.
Conway should make good, IL the old
pep counts for anything. He keeps talk
ing all the time, and his gestures are
something absolutely new to O Mackman.
II he keeps 1t up. and doesn't make any
errors, and hits about .4SO, and tries hard,
he'll make good, to speak conservatvely.
1t seems unfair to tell OF 1t when a
young man is trying so hard to be a
peppery major Lacquer, but the front
name OF Mister Conway is Sylvester.
In the sixth inning today Conway ran
In for a bunt and got his man at first.
Cree was Just going in to second when
he saw that third base was unprotected
and he kept on going. Sylvester ran back
for McInnis' throw and fell down taking
It, but he crawled up on all fours and
tagged Cree on the wrist quite forcibly.
Cree was naturally indignant and tried
to make the Ump think he was safe,
whereat Sylvester turned on him with a
moclting laugh and shouted in Jawn
McCiraw tones "Get out, get out" Cree,
1t may be noted got
All but two sections of the sun bleachers
were filed when play started for the first
