Ietic field, Ninth and Polk streets.
This will be the big school game Of
the year, with the alumni smarting
under the drubbing administered by
the gridiron stars last fall. This will
be their chance to come back and
they are mastering their forces to
take no chance on losing another
game to the youngsters.
The Coyotes promise several star
diamond performenrs this season,
with several of last years satellites
cavorting on the home lot. Coach
McCoombs had the boys out aagin
last night, but he Is not picking out
his team until the umpire gets ready
to call the game. Close to 90 cam
didates are trying to make the team
down the side lines while nine ath-
| letes grace the field. McCoombs has
an array of baseball talent out this
year that makes it a difficult prob
| lem for him to pick his team. He can
put two good teams on the field with
| out any weak spots and he may try
| two and possibly three line ups
against the alumni tomorrow.
Sam Haldiman had the White Sox
and Alumni out for practice Sunday
afternoon with prospects for a fast
team In the opening game. TonoF-
row afternoon the Alumni will bring
back Phat Westfall, Finley Westfall,
| Brown, Warren Moore, Pepper,
| Geare, Ryan, Heflin, Lyall, HaldimaH
and Gilleland The former high
school stars will make the game in
| teresting for the Coyotes and they
hope to teach them some baseball
| tactics to use against the other valley
| teams this season. However, the CO.
votes still remember how the Alumni
promised to teach them football last
season and when the game ended the
grads discovered they were delin-
quent in several important features
Of the game, chiefly the art OF scor-
ing.
The entire student body will be
out to help put the old heads in "the
grease" and the Alumni will have a
section of the rooters section where
they can assemble their supporters.
| The official umpire has not been
selected--no one has yet shown
enough bravery TO come forward and
volunteer. so the jumps will probably
| be drafted tomorrow afternoon.

BIG Ed WALSH WAS IRON MAN
OF MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL
BY BILLY EVANS

Ed Walsh, once famous pitcher Of
the Chicago White Sox. will live long
in the annals of baseball as the 'iron
man" of pitchers.
II there ever was glutton for
work, Ed Walsh was that individual.
From 1906 to 1912 he took part in al
most fifty games year.
Walsh in those six years did about
IL years of work. He had outlived
his usefulness at a time when he
should have been at the height Of his
career.
Here are just few high spots in
the career of Walsh, from 1905 to
1912. his big years in baseball. Here
is his 1906 record
Won IL games and lost 1S. In 10
OF his IL victories he scored shut
outs.
Pitched three one-hit games and
worked in Is games in which he al
lowed five hits or less.
In the record of 10 straight made
by the Chicago White Sox from Aug.
2 to %, he worked in seven games
and won them all.
In hanging up the seven victories
in % days he allowed only six runs.
In four Of the games he shut out
the opposition.
Hero Of World Series
In the 1906 world series with the
Chicago cubs, which the Sox won,
to the greatest surprise Of the base
bali world, Walsh featured with his
pitching.
He twice beat the Cubs. In his
first game against Chances then
great team he allowed only two hits
and no runs and struck out IL men.
~. - .a.t-... t;c. snoson al
though not. replete with the many
sensational performances that lea-
tured his work in 1906.
His record for the season was "a
games won and IS lost.
1908
The season of 1908 was the biggest
year in the career of Walsh.
The Big Moose" as he was known
by the ball players, worked in So
games, nearly half the number
played by his club.
Walsh started 49 times, finished l5
other games and managed to win 40,
lose only is and tie one game.
In game against Cleveland he
yet lost the game. In that contest
Joss, pitching for Cleveland, shut out
Chicago without a run or hit, not
player reaching first base.
He scored IL shut outs.
In the last nine games OF the sea-
son he worked in seven OF them,
1909
The strain of the three previous
years told on the old arm and the
best Walsh could do was win IS and
lose II. The Sox finished fourth.
1910
Regained his title OF the iron man"
OF the league by working In 80
games
With a club that finished sixth,
Walsh won Is and lost 20 games.

HURLERS WHO SAVED
WORLD SERIES FOR
GIANTS ON MARKET

NEW YORK, Feb. 2O-Pitchers
Philip Douglas and Jesse Barnes.
each Of whom won two worlds series
games for the New York Nationals
last fall. today were placed on the
market "to be disposed of to the club
offering the best inducement."
The proposal to sell the players
was unexpected in National league
circles. Charles Stoneham, president
of the club said that when 1t was
decided to get rid of Barnes and
Douglas several tempting offers were
received but declared the owners
would wait until wednesday to an
nounce which they would accept.
Douglas and Barnes were the only
Giant pitchers who had not signed
1922 contracts, but this fact, Mr.
Etoneham said, was not the reason
they had been placed on the market
Douglas was one of the Giants best
pitchers last year. while Barnes. who
had trouble with his arm during the
regular season, proved an ace in the
worlds series.

1911
Once again he did more work than
any other American league pitcher.
dis record was "a won and is lost.
1912
Worked in 81 games although his
record only shows the winning OF IL

JOHN t. ADAMS. CHAIRMAN REPUBLICAN
NATIONAL. COMMITTEE

Sixteen months ago the Republican
Party took over the management OF
the largest business concern In the
world. 1t found the organization OF
this concern utterly demoralized as
result Of eight years of riotous waste,
gross mismanagement and class leg.
;slation. There was bonded indebt-
edness of $23 97000,000 Government
bonds were selling at IS cents on the
dollar. There we're outstanding loans
to foreign countries of $1,000, 900, 900,
for which there was no written evi.
dence Of indebtedness much less any
business or legal agreement as to how
and when the loans and interest were
to be paid. The discount rate at Fed.
eral Reserve Banks was rs per cent,
for gilt edge loans. Five million wage
earners were in idlenass. Farmers
faced bankruptcy. Hard times pre-
vailed Business lived from hand to
mouth. Everything needed readjust.
ment and reconstruction. Such. in
broad way, were the conditions pre-
vailAg when this administration took
ccntSol OF the country and the present
Republican Congress was called into
special session
Today we have a President whose
wise, business-like, constructive poll.
cies have won the confidence and af
fection Of the American people. He
has surrounded himself with a cab.
met composed Of men endowed with
common sense. especially qualified for
the work OF their departments and
devoted to the promotion of public
welfare. AS soon as the administra.
tion assumed control it called into
special session the Republican Con-
gress to assist 1t in Strengthening out
the situation. Since then the execu.
tive and the legislative branches Of
the government, both under Repub-
lican control, have worked together.
AS result of their joint effort there
has been within the last 16 months a
marvellous Transformation. The bond
ed Indebtedness has been reduced by
$1,o14,0O0,000. Today every issue of
Liberty and Victory Bonds s'selling

I The las. year Of Wilson's admin
istration the actual cost of running
the government was S., 53S ,00U, 600 The
actual cost of running the government
for the fiscal year just ended June
80 was $S,795, 100000. This is an an
nual saving of s1,74S, 100000 which the
Republican administration has made
in the routine expenditures of the gov
ernment. This was possible because
the Republican Congress early in its
special session re.enacted a budget law
which the previous Republican Con-
gress had passed only to have Dem,
oeratic President veto it, 1t was easi-
ly the most important piece of busi-
ness legislation which has been en-
acted within this generation. After
its enactment it was sensihly applied
by the executive officers Of the Re-
publican administration.
The work Of Congress, the wise ad-
mnistratiye policies and the introduc-
ton OF business methods by the de-
partments in the conduct OF public
affairs have all combined to revive in
dividual and corporate enterprise. so
that today, in contrast to year ago.
unemployment has ceased to be
factor outside OF those industries in
which there are strikes. Agriculture
! is on it's feet. Business Is improving
each day. Industrial output is increas-
ing. Capital Is going back to work In
the channels of private and profitable
enterprise 1t really makes some diff
J ference at the end of a year whether
the government has been controlled by
an administration and Congress that
are generally right in contrast to an
administration and Congress that were
generally wrong.
The Republican party will go before
the country this fall without any apol-'
ogy for this record. 1t Is record
which needs no defense. The people
are not going to stop the magnificent
work so well begun, They are noe
going to retreat 10 Sthe conditions
which prevailed prior to March, 1921.
They are not going to RETURN the -lem-
ocraticvaTty to power and thereby rel
store the evir1 conditions which have
been so largely corrected in the past
16 months of Republican control of
the executive and legislative branches
