Pittsburgh Lands
Star Outfielder
In Hazen Cuyler

Pittsburg, July l9-In Hazen Guy
Ter, fleet outfielder, the Pirates APP
pear to have picked up one OF the
best all-around prospects to come
into the National League in seasons.
Cuyler joined Pittsburg late in
1928, coming from Nashville, in. the
Southern Association. Cuyler was
one of the big noises in that circuit.
In 149 games he hit $40, getting
1876 safeties in STA times at bat. He
had a total base record of 295,
which included 80 doubles, II triples
and 8 home runs. He was secon'.
high in both doubles and triples.
Cuyler led the league in stolen
bases with GO, being good distance
out in front in this respect. Among
the regulars he stood third in the
batting averages. He also had 35
assists in the outfield, II more than
his nearest rival.
| Since coming to the Pirates he
| has made himself solid with the
! fans, who like his aggressiveness
headsup baseball and natural ability.
Anyone capable of breaking into the
Pittsburg outfield, composed O +
Carey, Bigbee and Barnhart, must
have something. And that's what
Cuyler did. In many games this
season he has been used in place
of Barnhart.

Freak Schedules
Hard On Fans
In Four Cities

New York, July 19-The present
race in the American League pro-
misses to be one of the most thrill
ing ever staged.
With the race half over, seven
clubs are in the running, the Phila-
delphia Athletics alone appear out
classed.
In the face of this great race,
the schedule of the 1924 campaign
in the American League is one of
the most unusual ever drawn up.
1t is freak schedule that doesn't
fit in, very we'll with the great race.
It's popularity lies in the fact that
with the season half over, a number
of clubs have completed their list
of games with each other. For in
stance:
On July Washington completed
it's home schedule of IL games with
New York.
On that date the Washington fans
saw the Yankees for the last time
Incidentally Washington has already
played eight Of its II games at New
York.
AT this writing the Yankees and
Nationals are strong pennant con-
tenders, yet only three Of the q
games scheduled between the clubs
remain unplayed.
That Is unfortunate because the
fans IN both cities would flock tt

PINCH SKATERS TAKE PLACES
OF LEADING HITTERS

Detroit, July l9-It is an unusual
spectacle to see a champion bats
man taken out for a pinch hitter,
yet it has happened twice in the
American League this year. Both
times in this city.
Harry. Heilmann led the American
League in 1921 and after losing the
title to Sisler in 1922 regained the
honors last season.
Sisler, in 1922, the year he led
the American League, was voted the
most valuable player in that or
ganization.
American League pitchers will
tell you they fear no two hitters
in the league more than Heilmann
or Sisler.
Despite this, Sisler removed him
self to let a pinch hitter bat for
him. Recently Manager Cobb re.
moved Heilmann for substitute
batter.
1t SO happened that both Sisle,
and Heilmann were in the throes OF
protracted slump at the time.

Poultry Raising

London, July 10. GA PIN pro-
posing the health Of the American
and Canadian delegates to the world
poultry congress recently held in Bar
celona, who were entertained by the
British government here, Minister Of
Agriculture Noel Buxton admitted
America and Canada were ahead of
Great Britain in poultry culture, but
he added that he was proud of the
fact that Great Britain's breeding
stock was in demand in other lands.
Britain, he said, had not yet deve-
loped her poultry industry suffici-
emily to meet her own demande,
but she supplied the market for other
people.
The British government, the speak
er concluded, was very grateful to
America for the courtesy shown to
their representative, A. P. Francis, on
the occasion Of his visit to the
United States last year for research
work in poultry culture. -

Billy Evans Says

Baseball is survival of the fit
test. No sport puts an athlete to
so great test over Il long period.
This is particularly true of the
major leagues, where is assembled
the very cream of the baseball talent
of the world.
Woe be to the big Lacquer who
has weakness, whether it be at
the bat, in the field, or if a pltcner,
scme faulty feature in his delivery.
In the college football the scouts
play leading part in the. grid
IRON sport.
The coaches teach the funda
mentals, dwell on the STACEY of the
game, prepare the athletes for the
actual play, but it is up to the
scouts to provide the dope on the
opposition.
In professional baseball, each man
ager is scout, and his players are
his assistants on the board of STRAIT
egg.
Woe be to the big Lacquer with
weakness. Unless able to correct
it, the flaw in his makeup otte"
proves his undoing.
could name a half dozen pitchers
of major league class who were lit
orally hunted out of the league. They
simply couldn't handle hunted balls.
Others fail because they are unable
to hold the runners closely to the
bases.
/ A batsman with fault may be
prepared to have all pitchers play
up to 1T.
Last fall Connie Mack paid a
fancy figue for Paul Strand. he
had led the Pacific Coast League in
batting, making the seemingly I'M
possible total of 1926 hits in -.
games.
Mack was sure Strand would give
his club batting punch. Figures
made it seem that Mack had reached
a perfectly correct deduction.
| The pitching stars of the big show
make careful study of their bat
tiers. Special attention is given the
new men.
Shortly after the opening OF thu
American League season a flaw wa:
discovered in Strands batting style
Soon it became league gossip, thu
property of all the pitchers. Strand
suffered. The handicap was toe
great. He is back in the minors.
1t may not seem sportsmanlike,
but it doesn't take the entire league
long via the gossip route, to get all
| the dope on a player with a glaring
fault.
| see where the Boston team, by
running wild on the bases the other
day, beat Dazzy Vance of Brooklyn
even though he struck out nine men
The Boston players are quoted as
saying that Vance has certain
hitch in his delivery that tips the
runner as to when he intends pitch
ing the ball, a marked advantage td
the runner.
If this be true, it will make it ;
little harder for Vance to VIII
However, at present he is showing
the way to most of the Nationa
League pitchers, despite the alleged
handicap.
There arc certain American Leagu
pitchers, rated stars, who let run
ners get big lead. This is a serl
Gus fault that requires great natura
ability to offset.
A pitcher with a fielding weakness
is at decided physical disadvan
tage. He also works under grea
mental handicap, constantly believ
ing that each batter that faces hin
intends to bunt.
Allan Sothoron, a pitcher of grea
ability, was practically hunted fror
the American League. Inability t
field kept him from being star.
Baseball is sure survival OF tn
fittest.

Toronto, July 18.--Only II years
of age. Agnew Burlie, winner Of the
featherweight class in the Olympic
tourney, is probably the youngest
boxer competing in the Paris athletic
carnival.
Like Young Stribling Of America,
Burlie is product of the stage and
began boxing at the early and un-
doubtedly tender age of five, his
older brother furnishing the opposi-
ton in bouts staged before the foot
lights.
His brother Alec, incidentally, i

for the American League pennant
Vet the fans of these two cities have
but little to enthuse over as far
as seeing these two clubs oppose
each other.
On July Detroit finished its
schedule of II games in Cleveland
While Cleveland has only three
more games to play in Detroit early
in September.
Thus four of the contendine
teams, natural rivals, have practl-
cally finished their season schedule
with each other. This is to be re-
GREETED in Il race that promises so
many thrills before the finish.
The 1924 schedule is certainly 8
freak one, far from befitting the
close race.
