Nopyright, l922, by The Argus j.
New York. Nov. 2S.-Recora,
compiled today tend to DISPUTE tha
contentious of some folks th.s
pitchers in the big league are roins
back. The records are not oiiiciai
but they will be borne out when
the official numbers come ont
In 1922 there were more sbu,
out games pitched than we're tv,r,
in 1921. The National league rse
ord for 1921 was 81, and in 1929 i,
was 20. The American learns
record in 1921 was 60 and in lsss
it was IS.
And by this record those WIN

given one more clinch. The rec.
ord also is pointed to with the MS.

tiers we're more hefty with their
sticks than their rivals.
It is a good argument either way
In April there were nine shut.
out games pitched in the American
league to four in the nationali two
of the latter were pitched on the
last afternoon of the openins
month. By May the older leagues
pitchers got better. or the batten
worse, as you will, for In that
month of blossoms the National
showed nine shutout games to eight
in the American league.
Then the American league pitch
ers buckled down to business and
during June they blanketed the OPP

National league pitchers were
holding the enemy scoreless in N
even dozen games. In July the
Ban Johnson circuit showed IL
! shut-out games to IA in the riva!
organization.
The National league hurlers ap-
parently were going great guns in
! August, for in that month they
jumped ahead by pitching IA shut.
outs to the II that were twirled in
the American league.
! The Boston Americans and the
Washingtons incidentally wrested
the whitewash brush from the
, White Sox. Either as winners OF
! losers, the Red Sox were mixed
up in % shut-out games in 1872.
Washington was mixed up in Is az
fairs in which one side or the other
never saw the home plate.
In the National league the Bos-
tons ran their total for white
/ wash games to II. Pittsburgh was
mixed up in IS games in which one
team or the other went scoreless.
An interesting phase of the fg-
ures is that Boston and Washing.
, ton had a little record all their
own one day. On Sept 2 Boston
shut out Washington in the morn
ing, 3 to 0, and then in the after
noon again smeared the senators

MOLINE DECIDES
ABOUT BASEBALL
Mass Meet of Citizens Called for
Tonight to See II Team Stays

Tonight one of the questions that
has been foremost in the minds of
Moline sportdom will be answered
when citizens will gather in the
Dispatch auditorium to- settle the
baseball issue. The meeting will
start at 7::30 o'clock.
Fans of Moline have been ask
ing the question for many months.
None has been able to answer it.
This is not the first time Moline
has been backed against the wall in
baseball way. A similar circum-
stance confronted the city in the
winter Of 1919. Again, last year,
the same question arose. On both
occasions the staunch supporters
OF the pastime have overcome all
obstacles.
The reason for all this grief is
the same as it was on previous oc-
casions; in fact, the same thing
confronts those in charge Of base
ball affairs in Moline every year

it will be able to meet all financial

haps never to be regained.
If Moline does not withdraw
and is permitted to remain in the

New York, Nov. 2S.-Wtth the
western conference football season
at an end there can be no hesita-
ton today in awarding supremacy
to Iowa for the second successive
time. Michigan lost no conference
games. In fact she won all four
played. But her prestige was in
jured by a time game with Wander
bflt, whereas Iowa did credit to
Big Ten football by defeating Yale.
Iowa was neither beaten nor tied.
Iowa met and defeated Knox,
Yale, Illinois, Purdue, Minnesota.
Ohio State and Northwestern. Mich
igan, aside from being tied by Van
derbilt, defeated Case, Ohio State,
Illinois, Michigan Aggies, Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota. Or, combining
the reckoning to conference games,
Iowa won five and Michigan four.
Notre Dame, which is not a con-
ference institution-she would like
to be-stands among the gridiron
leaders of the country as usual. She
has one more game to play-Ne-
braska at Lincoln on Thanksgiving
day-and until the returns on this
contest are in, nothing further may
be said.
The Big Ten schedule makers will
meet on Dec. l to arrange, among
other things, the gridiron dates for
1923. With 10 teams in the confer
ence and all of them ambitious for
attractive games, the meeting no
doubt will range from velvet-toned
diplomacy to hard-fisted give and
take. Purdue, Indiana and North
western in recent years have been
the pawns of these meetings, glad
to take what they could get. But
other institutions have not been SO
complacent and bitter feelings have
usually followed the final arrange
ment of dates.
As showing the difficulties en-
countered by the Big Ten delegates
it may be said that Ohio States will
go into the meeting ambitious to
clinch engagements with the pace
makers of the conference, viz
Michigan, Iowa and Chicago. Other
members of the conference have
designs that are sure to conflict

in Chicago will be worth watching

that bands have been playing in the
