DUTCH LEONARD'S
THREE AMBITIONS

mighty Alexander bowed quite as
much to superior pitching as to su-
perior offensive attack and yielded the
palm Of victory 10 his invincible on
ponent. Leonard had his wish a
worlds series victory, by as mastery
a performance as the game has seen.
Another OF Leonard's three secret
ambitions was to prove the most eff
fective pitcher Of season. And lie
did. Incidentally though, he estab-
lished 9 record which should stand for
years and may never be lowered. In
1914 he allowed but twenty-five earned
runs in thirty-fiye games pitched. Some
OF these games. OF course, were not for
a full nine innings, but his grand aver
age for the season was 101 earned
runs per game.
This is the most nearly perfect aver
age on record. The nearest ii has ever
been paralleled was by Walter John
son in 1914 with a grand average on
10y There may be pitchers who
twirl in but a few contests who could
show such effectiveness, but no pitcher
who has taken part in representative
number Of games has ever approached

thai mark save Johnson only, and he
did not equal II.
The third ambition of Dutch" Leon
ard was to pitch a no-hit game; and
smarting by the rough treatment Of
tho day before he gained that third and
last of his ambitions on August 30.
What manner Of pitcher is this who
can break into n league Of stars and
annex three such records at the age
Of "a? Walter Johnson has toiled for
years to pitch no-hit game and so
has Alexander. but though they came
close to the mari, they never could
quite reach it. And to so through
season of allowing an average of al
most exactly one run per game Is
really almost too good pitching feat
to DO true.
Leonard is a dark complexloned,
stockily built athlete, some five feet
eleven inches in height and Weighing
1870 pounds. He looks more like foot
ball player than baseball pitcher.
and he is indeed an all-round athlete.
Twenty-four is young even in baseball.
He should have at least ten years
ahead. and what may not pitcher
accomplish in ton years who has al
ready done so much at twenty-four?

the Baseball magazine.)

4Wake" Editor Decides Not to
Attend Baseball Game and
Dimes with Friends.

NEW YORK, Oct. "a man with
weak heart and three dependent
children would of been a sucker TO
go over to Ebbets field in the bureau
of Brooklyn today and tooken Il
chance of witnessing another such a
kind Of a game as the Dodgers and
the Giants put up yesterday, and
speaking of the Dodgers they tell me
that that word just about described
the New York inflelders yesterday
hit a ball that the Giants had 10
move quick to get out Of the way OF
It.
While New York newspaper men
and baseball reporters advised me to
stay away from Ebbets field and
when I seen in the papers where Nc
Graw was SO Disguised that he had
gone to the races wherever they are,
| made it up in my mind that 1t must
be pretty desperate and why should
| risk It?
McGraw Doesn't Manage Ponies.
For instance, McGraw has lived
through a whole lot of distressing
scenes like the worlds series of 1913
and the Cubs of 1915 and the Reds
and Cardinals of pretty near any
year, and If he could not stand 1t
to taken another look at his Giants,
where would be at.
MeGraw figured to himself that If
he went to the races, he might prob
ably see a horse hold back and let
some other horse win but it would
be done artistically and besides he
should worry what the horses done
because he is not managing horses
but zimmermans and Herzogs and
etc.
"Kept Us Ont of Philadelphia"
They was big lot of talk around
here today about the way the Giants
acted in the game that cinched the
pennant for the Brooklyns. Most OF
the men talked to was reporters
and they did not seem to have no
kick coming.
One of them said: at means we
will be through in four games instead
of i've or six because Brooklyn has
not got no Alexander"
Another one says: Thank God

BRAXTON COUNTY

sivc citizens of the county. 1t is gen.
orally conceded that not only have Re

county, but they have by long odds the
best county ticket.
Braxton county people like Judge
Robinson; they know him for a man
who is not now depending entirely
upon promises-his record is what
they look 1t. And more and more Re-
publicans are taking note here that
Cornwell. his opponent, has not yet in
n single speech scored a point against
that record. nor against tho fitness Of
the Taylor county jurits. To every Re
publican in Braxton county It appears
that Cornwell is trying to find hole
in the outer circles of the target, with
out going too near the bulls eye, for
fear It might bite him IL he puts bis fin-
ger into It.

The Remarkable Achievement
of a Twenty-four Year
Old Star.

No other pitcher in the game is more
absolutely unhittable than Dutch"
Leonard, Of tho Red sox, when he is
feeling right He may not be tho most
dependable, but he is certainly the
most brilliant performer Of the re-
nownod Red Sox pitching stan.
On the twenty-ninth Of August,
Leonard was bitted out Of tho box by
the St Louis Browns. On the thir-
tieth he shut thom out without hit,
The player often forguts the vicissI-
tudes of today in the expected
triumphs Of tomorrow. but If there is a
swifter. more decisive transition from
failure TO success than TO be driven
from the box one day and to pitch a
no-hit game the next, wo have never
heard Of It.
When Dutch" Leonard entered the
major leagues he had three ambitions.

for the Giants. They kept US out of
Philadelphia.
They is also big lot of talk about
the league investigating the game
and Furnishing the man on the New
York club that was supposed to be
doing tho laying down. But can
tell right now what will happen.
Nothing will happen.

As far as investigating is concern
ed, they should ought to be an in
yestigation Of why William KLEIN was
not appointed one OF the umpires
and worlds series without Klein
umpiring will be like n newspaper

Judge lands.
After l had gave up the idea OF
going to Brooklyn, had TO hustle
round and try and find somebody to
buy my meals and the man I tackled
for lunch was Clarence Briggs and
he said he did not have time. This is
a funny line in itself, a cartoonist not
having time TO do anything.
Milk Famine Hardship.
F. P. Adams finally agreed to buy
the lunch and Grantland Rice Is going
to buy the dinner and Charles Van
Loan Is going to buy tomorrow's
breakfast and after that don't know

Boston Friday noon and we Will all

Why Suffer
From Migraine or

Dr.J.J. Caldwell says that this exceedingly
distEesninR disease does not shorten life,
but does not appear TO be durable, Suffer-
orB from this Atfiction are condemned to
undergo the periodical attacks every few
weeks until they are forty years OF age, after
which the Attacts are less frequent, and
nnally disappear entirely. Palliative meas
nres during the attack are all that It IS
possible TO suggest, while care IN the diet IS
tho best preventive measure, An nttRck
may often be prevented by taking two
anH-kRmnia tablets when the frst 8ymp-
toms appear, and one anti-knmnin tablet
every two hours during the attack shortens

SUTTON, Oct 6.-This is ono county
where, after long years Of Democratic
rule, Republicans carried their banner

the first time in the history Of the
county. In this instance the Republi-

The important difference between
the dairyman and the beef man Is In
the fact that the dairymans farm Is
so situated that he has market for
dairy products. the beef man does not
have this market SO must be content
to sell less perishable product -
calves Both Of them are in good
business because they are looking out
for the fertility Of their farms first.
OF course, incidentally each Of these
men has q supply Of milk and butter
for his family. This Is aside from the
main purpose Of keeping cows, how.
ever.
There are thousands OF farmers IN
Tennessee who do not keep cows 10
eat up the rough feeds on their farms.
who pay no attention 10 the produc-
ton and value OF manure, who do nor
sell milk and butter but keep cows
for the sole purpose Of having a sup
ply OF milk and butter for their fami-.
Lies In the fall they sell a bunch OF
scrawny calves that are a disgrace to
the community
They miss the three main purposes =;

the old COW gives gallon Of milk for
six months and loats for the other ak.
They should keep cows enough to
consume all the rough feeds they can
produce
They should make every bit of
manure they can
They probably should not Try 70 sell
milk and butter for they have no mar
ket, but they should sell good calf
for every COW every year The only
way to do this Is TO keep cows that
will raise good calves when bred 10
