All OF which brings up to the
question: What Is the matter with
the pitching2 That is as easy Of
solution.
Lack OF a good curve ball is the
fault OF 20 per cent. OF the present
day major league pitchers. 1t has
become a lost art with some Of
them.
Tie era OF freak pitching. plus
the impression that a curve ball is
hard on the arm, has had much to
do with the passing OF the curve
from the repertoire Of a great many
pitchers
The freak delivery was a creation
OF the fast ball. In using the emery
ball. the mud ball. or any OF the
other so-called freaks. the fast ban
was necessary TO get the break.
While those deliveries were toler-
ated, great many pitchers shifted
almost entirely 10 the fast ball. In
cidentally. for years there has been
a growing impression among pitch
ers that the curve ball was very bad
on the arm. Those two things have
caused the temporary downfall OF
the hook"
Fifteen years ago practically every
major league pitcher boasted OF a
good curve ball. Today the curve
OF a good many pitchers does little
more than twist One good curve
bali pitcher on a stan is about the
average.
In the world series Of 1921, the
potency OF the curve ball was ap-
parent. Barnes, Douglas and Nehf
OF the Giants set down the Yankees
without much trouble, and all be-
cause the trio used a curve ball to
decided advantage
I never saw a pitcher have bet
ter curve than did Barnes in the big
series Douglas and Nehf we're not
I far behind. The Yankees expected
/ spitball pitching from Douglas. and
were entirely upset when Douglas
used a curve ball almost exclusively.
10 was the same on the side OF the
Yankees. Hoyt. who had such great
success against the Giants. is one OF
the best curve-ball pitchers in the
American League. Carl Mays, in ad-
dnion to his peculiar underhand de-
livery. also makes use OF curve.
The pitching stars OF not so long
ago. Christy Mathewson, Mordecai
Brown. Chief Bender. Jack Coombs.
George Mullen. Bill Donovan. Bill
Dinneen and any number OF others.
were curve-ball pitchers. Go over
the list OF pitchers in the two major
leagues today and you will find that
about one in five is the possessor OF
a real curve.
I have talked with a number OF
the great curve-ban pitchers OF the
old days. and all Of them say the
throwing Of a curve does not injure
the arm II properly delivered.
When these wild batting orgies
are stopped, It will be the curve-ball
pitching that turns the trick.

MISUNDERSTANDING an aerial
attack that would not be denied, Mich
igan went into tie with Iowa for the
western conference football Champion
ship by defeating Minnesota, 16 to Z,
in one of the most spectacular games
ever played on Northrop field. 1t was
a typical Wolverine-Gopher tussle,
filled with thrills from start to finish.
It fould the underdogs holding the up-
perhand against an eleven that was
.undefeated, only to lose the advantage
whenMhe more seasoned combine hit
it's stride. Any one of a number Of
breaks might have turned the tide of
victory the other way.
+ Chicago. and Wisconsin battled des-
rerate1y before $4,000 surprised spec
tatorS on Stagg field and closed the
Conference season with a scoreless
tie, which to the hopes of the Mid
wayites was almost as crushing as
defeat. Outplayed, outrushed and
fighting on the defensive.
Unable to withstand the shattering
plunges of Locke and Miller, the
Northwestern line weakened, then
crumbled and fell, permitting Iowa to
batter throug-, for 81 to victory.
