UP TO THE MINUTE SPORT WORLD NEWS
HANK ODAY MAY EMULATE
VETERAN BALL PLAYERS ON COAST
(By NORMAN E. BRowN)


Back in the early nineties Hank
)'Day was initiated into the ranks
of the National league umpires. 1t
was done something like this: Hank
took his place. The pitcher heaved
the first bail and Hank called it \
ball. A hundred fans yelled you're
blind" and Hank was initiated.
And despite %e handicap of being
blind, under which said fans be-
lieved he had started, Hank has serv-
ed the National league we'll as an
arbiter ever since with the exception
of the year in which he stepped in
where angels feared to tread and
tried managing the Cinci Reds.
ODay has umpired in eight worlds
series. Fate wished on him the job
in the 1908 series of deciding against
the Giants in that memorable game in
which Fred Merkle failed to touch
second and thereby lost the series. In
the first three series in which O'Day
worked only two umpires were used.
Those were the fall contests OF 1903.
1905 and 1907. The move OF the
magnates in lessening the labors Of
these jumps the following year by
naming two more to handle the foul
lines didn't let Hank escape the mean
job apparently.
Bill Klein is the only arpltef IN the
game who has officiated in more
classics for the National league than
the veteran Hank.
The presence of Hank and Tom
Connolly in the worlds series of 1920
between the Cleveland Indians and
Brooklyn Dodgers added a touch of
sentiment to that battle. Connolly
and O'Day were the men who umpir-
ed the first series between the two
leagues in 1903. The fact that both
were still In tho game and chosen to
ofncate in the blue ribbon event after
II years was unusual. They had
worked together in the series OF 1905.
1910 and 1916 in the meantime. The
Pittsburg Pirates and Boston Red
Sox clashed in that first classic.
Hank O'Day I'm familiar attitude

SPEAKING OF SOCTHPAWS:

Clarence Mitchell. one of the most
dependable of this erratic class OF
hurlcrs, has signed his 1922 contract
with his old boss Charley Ebbetts.
and is expected to he ranked as a
real regular on the Dodgers hurling
staff tho coming campaign.
Mitchells work last year was good
enough to draw an increase in dough
for next year in these tight times.
Had he been given more OF a
chance to work earlier in the season
his record might have been much
better than it was-eleven victories
and nine defeats Several OF these
defeats were handed him by his team
mates by poor support Three of his
victories were shutouts. He was
especially effective against the Giants
all season.
Mitchell is now marking time at
his homo IN Franklin. Neb.. his ma
tive town. He was born there Feb
ruary %, 1891.
He began his baseball career with
Red Cloud in the Nebraska State
league, 12 years ago. and drew the
attention of big league scouts imme-
diately. Detroit bought him the next
season then farmed him back. The
Cinci Reds acquired him in 1914 and
he pastimed there until the Dodgers
obtained him in 1919.
He won seven and lost five games
his first year in Brooklyn. In 1920
he worked in 10 games, winning five
and losing two in the Dodgers climb
to the pennant. His main worth was.
however. as n pinch hitter. he break
ing into about 80 games in that role.
Mitchell made a hit with Franklin
last fall when. on his return home he
pitched and won two games for the
home team. striking out 80 and slam
ming two home runs.
