Chips and Slips
FROM OIL kAINTUck

Is Denver c. Grisby. another one of
the rockies who are hoping against
hope that they can stick with the
American league champions this year.
Grigsby started out to be big
league pitcher but his terrific hitting
caused the boss of the Sapulpa South
western league club to switch him to
the outfield. And it may be that the
change will give him an opportunity to
stick with the Yanks at least until the
return of Bob Meusel and Babe Ruth
to good standing.
Grisby was born in Jackson, KY,
March "a, 1902. While he was still a
boy, however, his folks moved to Okla
homa, setting at Sapulpa. He won
considerable fame pitching for anna
teur and semi-pro teams around Okla
homa and then was grabbed up by the
Sapulpa club in midseason last year.
The fact that the Yank scouts be-
lieve that lead of his experience war
rants a big league tryout would indi-
cate that he has the markings.

almost epidemic within baseball
whereby the manager and the catcher
do all the thinking for practically all
of the pitchers. That's because a
decade ago someway, somehow. the
idea gained advocates that a manager
could run a ball club and run his men
better by doing all the thinking for
the nine men during every moment OF
action.
What's the result?
Is it a good system-or bad one?
Is is best that catcher and a man
ager should do the thinking for the
pitcher-that moundsman should be
little more than mannakin? Well,
squirt at the records for the last 10
years. You'll find, among a lot OF
other things, that hitting since 1917
has increased at terrific clip.
Before 1912 the bulk of pitchers did
their own thinking-direeted their
own line of battle. The catcher as
sisted; the catcher was partner.
But the pitcher was the boss. And in
those days hits were rarities. And
only few of them ever sailed mil
lion miles out of the ball parks and
into the heavens.
But now, with catchers and manag-
ers doing the thinking, with catchers
and managers nulling the brain power
Of their pitchers-well, the swatter
who fails to swat beyond 800 and the
swatter who doesn't bang out dozen
homers, two dozen triples and four
dozen doubles each and every year,
| thinks that somebody has enshrouded
him with the gipsy's cure.

him from the heights toward which
