but the Washington manager could not
see things that way.
Made Pitcher Go In.
Naturally. Cantillon was sore and
also determined that the pitcher should
be taught lesson regardless of the
outcome OF the game. Washington at
the time was a tail ender, so that vic
tory or defeat made but little difference.
what CanttllOn wanted to give was a
lesson in discipline. After the pitcher
had passed the first three batters to
face him, the crowd began saying all
Kinds OF things and demand his re-
mOVaL It was not until he had given a
half dozen bases on balls and forced
over three runs that Cantillon sent him
to the club house. Before the derrick
was used on the pitcher, the crowd sore
because Cantillon refused to take the
twirler out because of his wildness,
shifted the criticism from the pitcher
to CantllOn. When the pitcher came to
the bench to get his sweater before go
ing to the club house, he also took with
him rather healthy fine for his fail
ure to observe instructions
CanflllOn Kept Silent.
All kinds Of censure was heaped on
Cantillon for his alleged stubborn
methods in allowing the pitcher to re-
main so long on the rubber when it was
apparent that ne was not in form The
fact that Washington lost the game by
a narrow margin only added fuel to the
flames Of fandCm's wrath Cantillon
took the abuse and remained silent It
was not until several years later that
he told some of those on the inside
the real reason for his actions. He
wanted to teach the pitcher a severe
lesson, yet did not want the fans to
know the real reason, realizing that
il would tend to make things all the
harder for the pitcher.

tubes can be reduced to a minimum by
the rims, SO that the tire beads will slip
easily into the correct position.
Initiate inner tubes Just enough to
round them out before placing them in
side of cases. DO not use tubes OF the
wrong size, and be sure that the valves
are equipped with spreaders adapted to
the particular type Of cases used: for
instance. clincher,. quick detachable

Firestone tubes. by the way, are equip
