r,ism lie isn't comedian or an
snostlc or bnfrooncry. but he is Il

varsity won. ! to 8.
Ring Hurled We'll
The most encouraging feature of
Rings work was his ability to &c
through number of innings without
doing much work That is. he sized W
his battcrs and did some real pitching
70 them He mixed his fast and slow
ones in such Il pcrplcxing way that he
had the Vans guessing the whole after
noon, aud they usually guessed wrong.
Ring has one Of the ncatcst slow balls
seen on a philly club in n long while
IN the first place. he COnCeals his lag
rardlv toss perfectly. lie puts a fur
ther premium on it by being able to use
this hall lust when the batter is look
ng for fast one or n sharp breaking
hook
Stnnlc, Haumgartncr. who left e
handed his way to lot Of wins for
Bethlehem last summer in tho Stcel
league, also has come around in gOod
shane. Hc is big, strong and appeared
ready when hc arrived at the training
camp. All hc had to do to get in hurting
condition was tO keep warming up his
arm with tho proper degree of regular
ity. NCw he has about arrived and
should make good showing against the
Senators.

showed ne has lot of stuff in reserve
He did not exert himself in the least.
and while tho Yanigans scored two runs
while hr was in the box. neither of
them would have materializcd il he had
had avorag" good fielding behind him
CauScy is another player who be
lievc5 no * in for one Of his best sea
sons. OF course. hc means by that a
far as he himself is concerned Nat
