OLD LEAGUE PITCHERS
SHOW UP RUTH AND COBB

The result of the world series has
created a great deal of comment
among players regarding the quality
Of pitching in the American League.
The wretched showing of the Amer.
lean League sluggers against Giant
pitchers, gives those experts who
have argued for years that Amer.
ican League pitching is inferior TO
that of the National a strong basis
for their argument.
There is something different in
the two leagues. The American haA
for years led in heavy hitting, and
the National, even in spite OF its
decade OF weakness, has played bet
ter defensive ball, and has appeared
to have better pitching. Nor is there
any doubt that with the passing of
Coombs, Walsh. Bender, Waddell, Doc
White, Mullin. Donovan, and others,
the quality of American League pitch.
ers has deteriorated.
The American Leasuers claim thatt
the pitching is as good or better than
that OF the rival league, and that
their batsmen are superior. They bnck
this UP by the averages Of Cobb,
Speaker and others. The Nationals
reply by saving their bstters are
equal to the American Beaguers, bar.

courage.
Springston booted the ball down the
field and Licarione tossed Du Four so
hard on the 35-yard line that Jimmy
Connolly. the star miller, replaced him
in the Georgetown backfield.
Again They Hold.
Leary and Malley brought a first
down on third darts at the tackles
and the ball was on the twenty-yard
line with every defender leaping and
jumping to get at the gray-clad backs.
Two more dives by Lowe and
Malley were nullified by a five-yard
penalty for being off sides, and when a
forward pass fell to the ground un.
completed, George Washington had
once more held for downs, this time
on it's 15-yard line.
A forward pass came as a last dying
effort by the Buff and Blue to advance
the ball. 1t was bad football to use
the pass so close to the defenders goal
but 1t succeeded and that took away
some of the curse. The next play
was a long pass that was uncompleted
/ Just as the final whistle sounded.
George Washington displayed at al
times strong defense, but its
offense was weak and decidedly inco
herent. Interference was absent and
its forwards failed to make any holes
for the burly Josh Licarione.
There was an utter absence OF
rough playing all through the game
The best of feeling was apparent or

ball back to Techs one-yard line,
largely aided by forward pass,

down. Lightner then kicked the
goal.
Bentz kicked off to Barron, who
fumbled and recovered the ball on
his 18-yard line, carrying 1t back

 Three years ago John J. Nun son, a private in the 30Sth infan- try, was decorated with the Dis tinguhed Service Cross, the croiX de gurre and the medaile mil itare. for extraordinary pallan- try in breaking through the enemy's line and bringing to American headquarters news of the plight of the lost battalion, " which had got insulated from the rest of the regiment during an advance in the Argonne. The battalion. or what was left of it, was rescued, and Munson was cited for bravery not only by his own officers but by Mar shal Petain as we'll. The other day he died unknown in Bellevue Hospital, New York. from consumption caused by the poison gas he had breathed into his lungs at the front. The con trast Is dramatic: it indicates that there is . truth in the charge that we are not properly caring for the soldiers who came back crippled or disabled from the war: though 1t was Munson s own unwillingness to appear as an applicant for help that led him to conceal his idenity from the hospital authorities. It is something to know that his old comrades did learn of his death before the body was takento the potter s field, and that they gave it honorable burial.
