I've never even seen Babe bat.
But here's how I'd throw to him:
Raise curve close to his hands.
High out curve that would start
close to the plate and drop outside.
Start the ball two feet outside the
pate and high and make it curve in
and drop 10 the knee on inside Of
plate.
I could change the progr ram each
time he faced me. Also. I'd change
the speed of each ball.

TO outguess him.
I have figured this out, assuming
I was in my prime and had the
same sIeed I possessed H. 1875 and

after a bail that looks good, but YOU
couldn't fool him often On tho same
ball.

every time. but make Il 90 another

To do this, a pitcher must have

SqnabbIe Causes

New Jersey Commission Con-

on Third Man.

NEW YORK, June 16-COntro-
versy is expected before a referee
is named by the New Jersey state
boxing commission for the Dempsey
Carpenter bout.
1t had been expected selection
could be made at a meeting of the
commission Thursday but after ad-
journment it was announced action
had been indefinitely postponed at
the request of promoter Tex Rick
ard While none would discuss the
matter it was understood that a
sharp difference Of opinion had de-
veloped among those with interest
at stake
According to general reports J.
Harry Ertle. one of the regular New
Jersey referees had been tentatively
picked. with three other New Jersey
referees as aIternates, but opposition
developed from Dempsey's camp be-
fore the commission had ignored
candidates named in the original
contract signed by Dempsey and Car
pentier.
The matter was reported to have
been referred to Richard with a
request that he try to effect a com
promise. Tt was expected he would
visit Atlantic City within a few days
for this purpose.
1t was learned unofcially that the
commission would stand on its rights
under the state boxing law, which
empowers il to name and license ali
referees II also ascertained that
none ofo the five named in the fight
contracts had yet applied for ref
eree's license. No objection from
Carpenters camp has been raised
against naming of the referee by the
commission
It was considered not unlikely that
difficulties might arise in adjusting
rules in the New Jersey boxing regu-
lations regarding seconds hand-band-
aging. etc. which appear 10 conflict
with the match code specified in the
boxers contract.

Then after release or parole

did.

After that 7 had to perfect it so It
would break where I wanted it.
How to Do IL.
I had to pitch the ball with one
foot just inside the front line of the
box. the other inside the rear line.
The arm had to be swung perpendic-

waist.
