Branch Hickey Is
None Too Strong
For FIag-Bnying
Cardinal Manager Is Bitter
Against Giants System
Cites HOrnsby Incident.
BY HENRY l.. FARRELL.
4


NEW YORK, Jan. $50 much
money was thrown 10 the four winds
at the winter baseball meetings that
wise heads Of the game are seeming
the danger Of commercialism.
New York fans will not have their
interest In the game weakened be-
cause the Giants paid $3.50. 600. but
the enthusiasm Of the Cincinnati
bugs may cool If Hermann and No
ran don't get them something worth
while for that pile OF money.
Only two clubs in the National
league are able to pay gigantic sums
for star players-the Giants and the
Cubs. If they succeeded in buying
every good prospect in the minors
and any star player they want in the
majors by outbidding other clubs,
I n e National league eventually
Will reach the situation now existing
in the International league, where
the fans are ready now TO hand the
1922 pennant 10 Baltimore.
That's when the sting Will come.
Hickey Bitter Opponent.
One Of the bitterest opponents Of
player buying is Branch Hickey,
manager of the St. Louis Cardinals.
who turned down q s25O.O 900 bid
from the Giants last year for Rogers
Hornsby.
AT the time the offer was made
the st. Louis club was in tight fin
ancial straits" Hickey said during
the recent meetings. I'VE had sew
eral places in which we could have
used $4,000 and perhaps we could
have gotten along without Horns
by. The fans began 10 humble
louder than they had been over a
club that wasn't going any too
good.
we announced we wouldn't sell
Hornsby and we didn't. The result
was the fans gained confidence in
the club and they began to come TO
the park. Apparently they had the
idea that they would try to make
our refusal profitable. And it has
been.
The New York club claims that
by buying big stars they get a great
road team that draws big money in
10 every pdth kut9 WISH. Lively ANoAAA
in the league draws almost as well in
st. Louis as the Giants.
Believes in Cards.
THE result is that after a year we
are satisfied that we kept Hornsby.
We have a club that I sincerely be-
lieve has a most excellant chance
for the pennant next season. But
that is secondary to the fact that
the fans are with the club, believe
in It and if we get a pennant for
them, their faith will not have been
misplaced"
Hickey is not alone in opposing
the use Of money alone in building
a team. Barney Dreyfuss of the Pr
rates, Charles Ebbets Of the Robins,
and William Week OF the Cubs have
been loud in denunciation of reck-
less expenditures of cash for players
who are not worth IL.

Ed Walsh, once famous pitcher OF
the Chicago White Sox. Will live
long In the annals Of baseball as the
iron man" of pitchers
III there ever was a glutton for
work. Ed Walsh was that individual.
From 1906 20 1912 he took part in
almost so games a year.
Walsh in those six years did about
II years of work. He had outlived
should have been al the height Of
his career.
Here are just few high spots
in the career Of Walsh, from 1906
to 1912, his big years in baseball.
Here is his 1906 record:
Won II games and lost Is. In
10 Of his II victories he scored shut
out
Pitched three One-hit games and
worked in % games in which ne al
lowed FIVE hits or less.
In the record of 10 straight made
by the Chicago White Sox from
Aug. TO %, he worked in seven
games and won them all
In hanging up the seven victories
i'm % days he allowed only six runs.
In four of the games he shut out
the opposition.
World Series Hero.
In the 1906 world series with the
Chicago Cubs, which the Sox won,
0 the great surprise of the base
ball world, Walsh featured with his
pitching.
Tie twice beat the Cubs. In his
first game against Chances then
great team, he allowed only two
hits and no runs and struck out 10
men.
1907.
Walsh had another big season, al
though not replete with the many
sensational performances that fea-
tured his work in 1906.

IN sport.
It is almost always possible TO an

With the second guess one can
always tell what might have hap

In looking over the running ac-
count Of the recent game between
California and washington and JET

apparent
California pulled a "boner'' at the
end OF the first half While time
quarterback discovered that but two
minutes Of play remained.
California had the ball on Wash
ington and Jenersons 22-yard line.
He had all the time he needed TO
arrange his eleven in kick formation
and try a drop kick or goal from
placement. He called for the kick
formation and then changed signels
and ordered a forward pass. The
pass failed.
Another "Skuller."
with three minutes left to play IN
the second half, California got the
ball on a short kick on the eastern
