NJ D RE CURVES
ADVISED BY
S|SLER

A batter who has been high in
the American League for two sea-
sons should know his business.
Batting. they say, is match be-
tween the pitcher and the fellow at
the plate.
George Sisler disagrees with this
impression. The catcher, accord
ing to the Browns manager, is just
as important in dealing. with the
batter as the pitcher.
Ray Schalk has been picked by
Sisler as his smartest opposing
catcher.
my batting average against the
White Sox will prove it," says
Sisler.
Schalk, as Sisler relates, double
crosses the batter because he does
not play the straight game behind
the plate. The straight game as
analysed by Sisler is this:
When the first delivery is a ball
the catcher calls for straight fast
one for the second.
When the first delivery is a strike
the catcher calls for a curve.
This Is the system Sisler says
must be altered. "Batters Who
study their business are acquainted
with the signals used by the catch
ers," explained Sisler. More curve
balls are needed-curve balls when
the batter has two strikes"
II there is anything that delights
a batter 1t is to remove the
wrinkles from the curve. Every
time he cracks one that bounds off
an outfield fence he shrieks to his
chums: "Oh, and what curve ball

Shirley And Dudley
Now In Line For
Coming Year

"Mule" Shirley, first-sacker,
and elise Dudley, embryonic
pitcher, have signed their Wash
ington contracts for 1925, mott
flying President Griffith that
they are in good health and
wishing him all the returns Of
the holiday season.
Shirley was a bench-warmer
last season. He studied Joe
Judge closely and several times
replaced him when the veteran
was injured.
Dudley is a young right
handed hurler who picked up
experience in the minors last
year after training at Tampa
with the Griffs.

IN "A WATER HAZARD.

The golfer who can play out
of water successfully has, an
advantage over his opponent.
It is not difficult thing to do
and more would try the shot
were they not afraid of getting
wet. The water hazard shot is
closely related to the sand trap
shot in as much as one must
make sure to explode the ball
out, That is, hit we'll behind it.
The average golfer never at
tempts the water shot and pre-
fers to go back across the pond
and take a penalty, which is
rather severe. If the ball lies
only two or three inches down.
it is easy to get out as the club
The Washington times., 1924-12-29

will cut through the water for
this depth without much of a
chance of being DETECTED. In
deeper water it is more difficult
as the club has more to do to
fight the force of the water and
keep in a straight path to the
ball. In the old days when we
played a great deal with float
ers it was much easier.
The water shot is not played
much because no one ever takes
the trouble to practice lit. Occa-
sionally one will see shot prac-
ticed in a sand trap, but seldom
in a water hazard.

FAMOUS
BOX SCORES
Joe Bush Holds Enemy
to No Hits; One Man
Reaches First.

AT PHILADELPHIA, Aug. &c.
1916.-"Bullet joe Bush was in ex-
cellent form and turned back the
invaders from Cleveland without a
hit. Graney, the first man to face
Bush, drew a pass and he was the
only Indian player to reach first
base. Seven of the Cleveland ath.
letes were turned back on strikes.
It was quite a reverse to the Cleve-
land hitters, who on the previous day
in a double-header had made twenty
seven hits for twenty-three runs
against the very same club. The
score:
The Washington times., 1924-12-29

to .the 30-yard chalk mark if
there is no objection.
Why don't they let football
alone in the winter time? TAX
ing the rules apart and trying
to match up all of the odd
pieces is Just one stage Of in
sanity worse than being a cross
word puzzler.
If they don't let those rules
alone during their winter nap
there won't be enough of them
left to start training with next
fall. Many kid has taken his
Christmas watch to pieces and
been sorry ever since.
AS football is today, it is
quite a manly little means of
mayhem. Any diluting of the
rules at this stage will make it
fit for women, children and
cripples only.
Leave those performers alone
and they'll order the cleats off
shoes because they dig up the
turf. Football doesn't need any
revamping either from these
tortoise-eyed professors or their
bob-headed sisters
That game needs no tamper-
ing with by any gridiron me-
chanics with post graduate
courses in calculus, etiquette,
after dinner speaking or snor-
ing. Let them revise the text
books but leave football to men
with boards.
Our flying wedges and leaping
tackles are fashioned after a
perfectly manly love for blood,
fractures, Commissions and in
cisions. Any infringement on
this free school Of Arnica and
Iodine would be adding oil to
the flame.
If you keep on taking from
the game and never adding to
it, you'll soon have the leather
off the ball and playing with the
rubber bladder in It's original
and naked state.
Then you'll have the players
wearing carpet slippers instead
of hob-nail boots and pretty soon
it'll be played in the parlor in
stead Of in cobble-stone streets.
