Matty Makes Use of Old Time Defeat
to Win Games Against Big Pitchers

a ball club would expect was bunt
from the third man and the infield

men crossed the club with hunts. /

those little dumped balls. so was My
ers, who was catching me-"
The score is not important St.
Louis had a big inning. enough to win
the ball game. Blunt followed bunt and
a wild throw or two told the story.
Matty took that experience as a
lesson and will work It out on his own
ball club He has already started and
It will not. be surprising if several big
National League pitchers don't feel
the sting Of defeat just because of
that fact.
Miller Higgins is a great exponent
IF the bunt. II made him a successful
hitter when he was playing regularly.
Higgins was small and did not have
the strength to be a slugger but for
years he kept near the top of the list
by bunting and outguessing the op-
posing pitchers.
Practically every major league man
ager will admit that bunting at the
right time is the best kind of inside
baseball, yet most Of them make no
attempt to teach their players the
bunting game.
One reason for this probably is that
players do not like to bunt They want
to wallop the ball and It is hard to
get them out Of the notion.

A few days ago the Cincinnati Reds

The game was engineered by Miller

NEW YORK, May 16.-Jim Thorpe,
the most famous athlete of them all,
seems about ready to take his place as
the first great all around athlete who
ever has become major league base
ball player Of ability. jim is hitting
them far and wide for the Reds in the
absence Of Eddie Rousch and, al
though he hasn't yet actually made
good. he has a better chance OF be-
coming a regular than he ever dis
while filling a Giant uniform.
John McGraw, leader Of the Giants,
always has predicted that Thorpe
would be a star il given the opportun-
ity to play every day All he needed
McGraw commended, was major league
experience. He believed firmly that
man who could do such amazing
things in other competition could
learn to nit and play the outfeld.
Thorpe has been picked out as a
sucker for curve ball." OF which
there are an amazing number draw
ing pay in the majors. Pitchers have
simply curve-balled him out Of JOE
with the Giants. He couldn't hit
consequently he couldn't play.
Thorpe never really played ball be-
fore he became a member of the New
York team in 1913. He had played
professional base ball and had taken
part in some college games, but his
experience was sadly limited until he
came under the eye OF McGraw.
His 1913 batting average was .14S,
but he took part in only nineteen

thirty games and batted 1874. Seven
teen games the following year gave
him a mark of .231.
Thorpe begged TO be sent to some
minor league club so he could get ex-
perience after these poor averages
we're given him, and his appeal was
needed. McGraw sent him to Jersey
City, which club subsequently turned
him over to Harrisburg. In 1916 he
was sent to Milwaukee. where he bat
ted PA for the season. a record
which proved h was beginning to hit
the kinky pitching.
At Cincinnati he has been given a
chance to show what he really can do
with major league curve balls and he
has been making good.

declared
Henry smelled the ball cautiously
and turned up his nose in partrician

Henry called Tom Connolly, who
was umpiring the game.
Connolly shifted the ball suspi-
