Jim Vaughn has given q Chicago

pletely several years ago that he was
dumped to the minors, to then come
back and prove such winner with
the Chicago Cubs. II was not indlf-
ference, but lame arm, says Hippo
Jim.
Vaughn was charged with being
lackadnlsical while he was with the
Yankees in 1910, II and ~ and was
roughly PANIED by some New York
critics. They accused him Of being
lazy because he did not exert himself

They did not know he injured his
arm In the season Of 1910.

Vaughn, In his explanation Just given.

~ like to pitch, and have never

worked out of my turn despite the
fact that 1t Is just as hard for big
man to pitch as It Is for IA little
man. Size has not everything to do
with twirling. 1t Is the arm, and a
man Of my stature Is Just as likely
to tire and wear out his arm as a
smaller and lighter pitcher"
Vaughn certainly has not shown any
lazy tendencies since he was secured
by the Cubs In 1913. That year he
Joined the club late in the fall and
pitched in seven games, five of which
he won. In 1914 he took his place as
a regular twirler on the staff of the
