With his indulent grace, Meusel
looks like he loafs down to first on
every hit, but his friends on the club
maintain that he gets down as fast as
any man on the club, his long stride
making his speed deceptive.
Get out there sometime and try to
go down to first with him. one of
the Yanks said recently.
Meusel isn't the only one of that
type in baseball, but he is the most
glaring example.
Some players get that way in the
desire to move away from tail end
team, but there should be no reason
for smart ball player, to get away
from the big salaries on Il New York
ball club.
Joe Benjamin, the California light=
weight, represents the same type in
the ring. The handsome Joe, if he
was not so handsome, should be one
of the leading fighters, making the
big money that all fighters make in
these days of huge purses. But Joe
never gave a hang as long as he had
the dough to keep the tailors at work
and have the feed bag full three times
a day.
While some collect nothing out of
every talent, others get everything on
Critics, discussing Harry Greb, the
light heavyweight champion, ask:
How does he do it,
Greb can't box and he can't hit. He
Just goes out and wins because the
desire is there, the ambition gives him
the heart, and he gets the maximum
out of his marvellous vitality.
Greb works on the principle of an
auto driver with a balky motor-"Gct

NEW YORK, July 31.-Talking
about Dave Robertson, after he had
been released by the Giants several
years afo, John McGraw said: HE 5
just as good ball player as he wants
to be-
The same words for the same pur-
pose cover q number of present day
players who are just outside stardom
because they won't step in.
Robertson, instead of being a star
outfielder working for good pay, to-
day is back on the New York bench,
going to bat now and then in a pinch
to give some one else seat in the
dugout
McGraw, and several other manag-
ers failed to make Robertson take his
work seriously, The same perplex-
ing problem is being studied by Miller
Huggins, manager of the Yanks, in
the case of Bob Meusel.
a born ball player, with a Won
derful eye a pair of slugging should
ers and the best throwing arm in the
game, Meusel is just something short
of being one of the sports greatest
stars
That something seems to be nothing
but the desire.
Meusel works in streaks. In spurts
lasting over weeks, he will murder
the ball, run the bases like the Geor-
gia Peach, glide back to the wall for
drives and NOW them down on the
bases with his deadly wing.
Then. just when all hands are re-
joicing, he will recede back to a pro-
tracted slump and play like green
buSher. ##
Because he plays with don't give
a darn" attitude, the New York fans
never have been crazy about him and
perhaps he is bit. yindictive.

A man stood wiping on bis auto

glorious luster-the sort Of sheen that
Is spoken Of In advertisements Of fur
niture polish, but which is seldom
seen. 1t was a lustre that frightened
the very streets Of Tampa, Fla. where
the automobile stood. 1t threw back
the rays Of the sur and mirrored the
figure of the toiling man.
Attracted by the light, a member
of the American Legion post at Tampa
drew near the scene, and finally made
out that the man was wiping the car
with a large American flag. The stars
and stripes were being rubbed inglori-
ously from the radiator cap to the tail
