Gibson Claims Mullen
Had Greatest
Speed

During George Gibson's long
stretch of years as a catcher, he
faced and looked at many a fast
ball pitcher. Matty, Brown,
Ruelbach, McQuillan and a host
of others who had lots of stuff
and speed, and whose names are
enrolled in the hall Of fame for
National and American League
slabmen; but the moundsman who
showed him the most stuff in any
one game was George Mullen, of
the Detroit Tigers, so he says.
mullen had the fastest ball |
ever looked at, and / have yet to
see any pitcher to beat him with
the speed he had in the world
series of 1909" said Gibby.

bronde. She had not been in
action a round before we named
her Harry Greb.
She had much of Greb's pecu-
liar style, often leading with a
right uppercut, bouncing in from
all angles and letting fly with
both hands. She would some
times lean against the ropes anC

Her opponent was stout girl. the

Witt" continued the A. l.. head, "he
had decided to have Witt no longer
on his baseball club. Five clubs re-
fused to waive. New YORK, Detroit,
Washington, st. Louis, and Chi
cago. When these clubs sent in
their notice claiming the layer,
under ordinary conditions he would
have gone to the lowest club in the
race, which would have been Wash.
ington.
Now Mack wanted an tnfielder.
He asked New York for Mitchell, but
was refused. Washington had no in.
neither any Of the others. l sug-
gested to Lee Fohl that he take
Witt, although l told him that in
view Of the demand for his serv.
ices, Witt could scarcely be turned
over to him at the waiver price. l
told Fohl he was a fine leadotf man,
that he would hit well and would be
an asset
But Fohl had no intielder he
could give in exchange. In the end
New York bid highest for Witt and
its offer was accepted. Naturally
the Yankees can pay more than 9th
er clubs; naturally the sellers take
their bid. That is nothing that I
can help, as I cannot interfere"
Il think that my position in this
matter is clearly understood" con.
tinued Ban, when l recall the MAYS
case. Mays jumped the Boston club.
He went to New York. told the
management of that club that Mays
could not be played; that he was sus.

Boston could have his services. What
happened? They took me into court,
won their case, got Mays and l was

have stated, I personally oppose.

Ban also stated that he felt with
the fans of every city that he
wanted an American League race
that he wanted the game to be sc
closely contested that the interest
in each city would remain at pitch
| and that whenever he had an oppor
tunity to foster and further such q
development he would lend his aid
and encourgamenet, both official
and personal
But, he added, while he felt thai
criticism was one of the ConComi

the time had arrived to set his owr
position clearly before the public.

Giant runners have been on

laughable to see how Kelly wal

so easily fooled.
The Giants have been shut ou
