TRYING TO EQUAL
ALEXANDER'S RECORD:
Big Ed Prefer Of Dodgers, Trying to
Win Pennant for Brooklyn
Team.

NEW YORK, July Big Ed Pfef-
fer Of the Dodgers is trying to dupli-
cate the feat Of Grover Cleveland
Alexander. Last year Alexander the
Great pitched the Philadelphia club
into pennant. Pfeffer Is actively en-
gagged in an endeavor to accomplish
the same thing for Brooklyn this year.
Wilburt Robinson, manager OF the
Dodgers, believes that Pfeffer is as
great pitcher as there is In base
ball., He does not concedc that Alex
-ander, or even Walter Johnson, has
anything on the Brooklyn highlander
this year.
Pfeffer has been a good pitcher
ever since he broke into the National
league. Only Alexander. Mamaux and
Toney were ranked ahead Of him last
year
He began his career at La Crosse
in the Minnesota-Wiscons league in
1909. Then he went to Fort Wayne
in the Central league. In 1911 he was
bought by the. St Louis Americans.
but was turned back to Fort Worth.
In September, 1911, after season
at Fort Wayne, during which he won
sixteen and lost five games, Pfeffer
was bought by Denver. He worked
