VET ADAMS STRIVING MIGHTIEST
TO GET IN ANOTHER SERIES

championship. He was the wonder
pitcher Of that time.
Some years since then the great Babe"
didn't play the greatest brand of base
said he was through, and it did at times
look like It. But last year Babe took
a brace. He has been popular idol here
abouts for a long time Win or lose, the
gang was always for him, and they
boosted him when they were roasting
other players.
GIBSON STARTED
LAST SUMMER.
But Manager George Gibson made
wonderful progress last year toward
a flag winning team, but he couldn't
quite come across. During the winter
Gibby plotted and schemed, and ho
snapped and dickered until this spring
he had a promising looking team when
they went to training camp.
After the season opened and Pitts
burgh set the pace the crOakers said
1t was a spring flash, and the Pirates
would blow up, but they are still going
good.
Realizing that Pittsburgh would come
mighty near having a winning team this
year, Babe" Adams determined he would
pitch in one more worlds series. He
has his heart set on that, and the smiling
veteran has been pitching his head off
all season, and every time you see Adams
chalk up on the score boards as the
pitcher you can get your money down
that Pittsburgh is pretty sure to win that
game.
Pittsburgh is hungry for pennant
! 1t has cast sheSp's eyes al the pennant
for a long time In vain.
Adams wants to stand up before a
worlds series mob once more. a can
do lust as fine work as ! did in 1863,
he says The fans here Will favor him
to pitch when it comes to those heart
breaking, desperate thLs-one- to win the
flag games.
II he wins and Pittsburgh wins. Adams
! is content to quit while the quitting Is
good. He may be persuaded possibly
to play one more year with the Pirates
but some doubt 1t.
Il cannot explain my lasting much
longer than many other pitchers on any
other theory than this: ] always take
things easy, and l never worry. dia'

make that effort I have travelled around
the circuit so many times that I am tired
of it all, and, as much as l like base
ball nothing would please me better,
when this season IS over, than to retire
to my Missouri farm and conhne my con-
nectiOns with baseball henceforth to
reading about big games in the sporting
pages"
What sort of chap is Babe Adams?
Well, briefly, he Is the most likeable SORT
of a fellow you ever met. He has the
sunnieAt disposition and even temper that
ever blessed a man. His private life is
clean, his habits correct, and he is ever
a gentleman. But, what Is more, be Is
Pitrsburghs popular idol.
The fans here hope he wins another
worlds championship flag. They. would
probably give him the town with the
great Carnegie Institute thrown in, if he
does.
When Adams goes to the mound in the
coming world series he viii have several
of his old 1909 teammates to whoop. 'em
for him. First Of all, there viii be
George Gibson, now manager OF the Pr
ates. who then was catcher with Adams.
Then there viii be Honus Wagner, Low
legs. baby, bull pup, and all. Likewise,
there viii he Deacon Philippe, pho pitch;
ed in that great world series, and Fred
Clarke is coming all the way from his
home in Kansas The oldtime Pirates
will back Adams to the sky with their
cheers and their rolls.
