BILLY EVANS SAYS

One badly pitched ball often loses
a ball game.
One badly pitched ball can prove
the deciding factor in world series.
This truth was demonstrated III
the 1922 world series between the
Yankees and the Giants.
Sometimes the error is mental;
more often it is mechanical.
In the second game of the series
Bob Shawkcy got curve ball high
and inside to Emil Aleusel. lie lit a
hOme-run into the left field bleachers.
Two were on at the time. Those
three runs were all the Giants made.
The game ended in 3-to-3 ten-in-
ming tie.
Snakey knew that such a ball
was in aleuscl's groove" He had pre-
curves outside. The high pitch was
a physical error; Shawgey'S arm sim
ply disObeyed the command of his
brain.
In the final game with two on the
bases and the YansaeS leading, Joe
Bush and Miller Higgins disagreed
over the passing of Noungs. The man
ayers say was final. Kelly, a fast
ball hitter. was the next at bat, Bush
either tried to slip over Il fast one, or
in anger pitched in kelly's groove. .
\ single that decided the world series
was the result.
Two badly pitched balls had played
havoc with the Yankees chances.
Eddie Plank once remarked: a
world series ball game is different
from any other contest. because you
must put much thought hack Of every
pitch. You cant take any foolish
chances"
Last season. while discussing pitch
Prs with Connie Mack. | asked him
who was the greatest left-handed
pitcher he had ever seen.
Mack doesn't jump at conclusions
he weighs his words. He looked off
into space for some time and then
replied:
There never was greater left.
handed pitcher than RUDE Waddell,
rcvCr q more valuable one than Eddie
Plank.
"Waddell had unlimited ability. so
much speed that he could buzz his fast
one by tho batter. while his curve
was almost unhitable. Plank didn't
have the stuff of Waddell but he pos.
scsSed a master brain"
All Of which merely proves that il
is an easy matter to toss off n ball
game through a couple Of badly pitch
cd balls.
In a world series ball game there

New York. Feb. 15.-The BEAUTY Of
hiding ones time before welding the
big stick has Just been cxcmpiified by
the United States Golf Association
in the championship golf proposal
made by Sir Eric Geddes. Sir Eric
recently suggested n great tournament
TO follow the British open next June
which would carry net only the
worlds title in golf bI, a purse Of
about 5000
Now there We're two elements in
this proposal that were peculiarly
repuGnant TO the United States Golf
Association. First. there was the
plcthoric purse. The L. :. G. A. has
gone unresCrvCdlv on record against
large purses Secondly. Sir Eric. in
addition 10 shining as diplomat,
is one Of the officers OF a rubber
corporation whose products are en-
ployCd in snort. Our S.-iOnal golf
association has been even more set
against the injection of commercial
influences into the game than it has
been against large money prizes.
So. all things considered. here was
an opportunity for the L. $. &. A.
to make its position SO clear that in
the future no one would dare make
another offer Of the kind. However.
great the temptation was. not 4
word came from the august councils
of the United States Golf AS>ocia-
ton.
And then at length ruling from
st. Andrews couchcd in terms in
which even Sir Eric Geddes could
find no flaw, disposed of the PROPOSE
tiun on the grounds that it would

CRITICISM OF GENE
SARAZEN'S GRIP MAY
AFFECT HIS PLAYING
Prominent Golfer Says He
Must Change His Way
of Holding Club.
BY WALTER CAMP

Copyright, by The San Antonio Light.
New York. Feb. IA most in
teresting discussion has arisen and
Is widespread today due to the fact
that Gene Sar&Zen. the national title
holder. made n somewhat disappOint
ing showing ON the coast.
\ prominent golfer made the flat
statement that Sarazen would have to
change his grip or he would be out Of
the money in future tournaments.
While this contention regarding Sara
zcn'S interlockinG grip may not be
borne out, the very fact that it is be-
ing criticized may have its effect on
the youthful titIeholdcr'S play and
may start his experimenting. II this
should be the case the history of the
game and Of the champion shows that
it will take him some time 10 settle
down again and even that indeCisiOn
may have a dcletcriOus effect upon
his chances.
There are plenty of good golfers
who changed 10 the intCrlOcking grip
and who found after time that their
direction and StcadinCSs of play were
increased. The prominent golfer who
made the statement claims that the
fleXibility Of youth can accommodate
itself to intcrlocking grip. but after
the early twPntieS that grip must be
lCSNcncd. 1t is doubtful if facts bear
out this contention. especially in some
Of the British players. but at any
rate it starts a line of discussion
which promises to grow more and
more interesting.
Even professional baseball has
awakened TO the fact pointed out by
the writer over two years ago that the
way to take care of pitchers and pre-
vent their getting glass arms" in
the course Of the winter training was
to put them through course of con-
ditiOning Of some weeks previous to

getting the muscles Of the shoulder in

them. The belief that two or three
days spent in gentle work prepares a
man to begin trying out his delivery
has proven fallacy. This year the
pitchers Of the Giants and Nanks
both will have n full two weeks con
ditioning course before they go to
the training camps. This should bring
down somewhat the mwieldy waist
lines. too.

WINTER OCEAN VOYAGES
Appeal to Augusta Residents

Augusta people are showing de-
cided interest this year in ocean
cruises as a means of taking a win
ter vacation" said T. e. Carpenter,
expert in ocean travel, attached to
the staff of the White Star Line at
Boston and who is here as a guest
of Messrs. d. w. Cony & Co, Steam
ship Ticket Agents. to meet num-
Der of Augusta residents, who are
making plans to spend a winter holi-
day in voyages through summer
seas.
although there is general
agreement in this section that winter
ocean voyages to warmer climates
are delightful" said Mr.. Carpenter,
I'VE find d considerable variety of
opinion among the people who
propose taking them as to where to
go. Some prefer our cruises de luxe
through the Caribbean Sea in the
Megantic, touching at West Indies
islands and cities on the Spanish
Main. Others prefer the Mediter-
ranean cruise in the Adriatic or the
Lapland, with visits to Cairo, the
Holy Land. Greece, Italy and the
Riviera. Others are strong for the
all-sea trip to California by the big
ships of the new Panama Pacific
Line. the Finland, Kroonland and
Manchuria, q voyage of $500 miles
from New York"
The California trip" continued
Mr.. Carpenter lis new. and is at
tracing particular interest from
motorists, who may be planning an
auto trip across the continent. We
suggest to them that they either take
their cars out on one of our ships,
and ride back home. or the reverse.
Our slogan is check your car with
YOUR trunk We accept the cars
uncrated. at very moderate rate
and have special garage space on
our ships for their reception. The
voyages last Is days to Los Angeles
Harbor and II to San Francisco"
"Our West Indies cruises. in a big
yacht-like steamer, last % days and
our Mediterranean cruises six weeks.
we are already well booked for
these cruises. but have some de-
sirable space at moderate rates still
lett. 1t is interesting to note that
the most expensive space goes
first"
