Mental Hazard Drives 'Pep" Young
From Major League; Can't Throw

ID ECENT press dispatches carried
IL the announcement OF the un-
conditional release OF Ralph c'Pep'1
Young by the Philadelphia Athletics.
And thus, no doubt, passes another
well known player from out the
realm of major league balloon.
The going OF Young marks the
passing OF one OF the smartest men
In the game. For Young was an In
telligent player played heads up"
baseball, and in his prime was con-
sidered one OF the best second sack
era in tho majors
pep" was sterling fielder, being
sure on ground balls, and could
cover heaps Of territory. He was also
especially adept in grabbing short
outfiold flies as well as tagging rum
ners coming into the bag. While not
much OF batter. he wns ncvorthc-
less a hard man TO pitch TO, drawing

ut various intervals with the thought
that rest would do the old arm
some good, and that he would regain
confidence In H. But the same trou-
BILE would always show up again. De-
troit passed Young on to the Attn
letics.
For time Young played flno bail
for the Athletics, II seemed as II the
kindly words OF Connie Mack had
erased the mental hazard that had al-
most ruined YounE's career, After n
few months II returned. and now his
release by Mack sounds his knell ms
n major Lacquer.
Young's case is without doubt ono
OF the oldest in the history Of tho
game. tho II has somewhat OF n par
nllel In that Of Claude Rossmnn, ono
time Detroit first hasomhn.
Rossmnn, like Young, lacked conf
dcncc In his throwing ability, but for
quite while hung on because tho
secret hndn't leaked out.
Finally. however certain player
in tho American league, who had
once been n teammRtc Of Rossman's

weakness, And II wasn't long before
tho entire circuit was aware OF Ross
