SLIM HARR|SS GETS
BACK At 'RAzzER'

Slim Harris, standing six feet, six
inches, is the tallest pitcher in the
American League. During the first
three years of his major league career
it seemed his height would keep him
from becoming the star that his great
stuff made it seem he should be.
Opposing teams persisted in bunting
on Harris. If at first they didn't sue
coed, they kept trying. Sooner or later
it would tend to upset the big fellow,
throw him off his stride, and then it
would be the cooling showers.
The past season, in a game at Chi
cago, after Harriss had set down a
couple of White Sox players on
strikes, a disguised Chicago rooter
yelled:
How do you manage to make a liv-
ing during the winter?"
Il pose as a model in a macaroni
factory" was Harriss' comeback, and
the laugh was on the fan.

had two out. Then he hit Manager

Bill Whaley walked.
Three on and two out--that situa-
ton faced Cuyler. who had been in
a batting slump. CLEARWATER steamed
one over. Cuyler hit it over left
field fence for the longest hit over
made in Clarkson Park and the old
ball game went right then and there.
A few days later he was sold to
Pittsburgh for $4,000.

HOW TWO UMPR|ES
IN BIG SHOW MET

Baseball abounds in unusual situa-
tons. When Clarence Rowland and
Dick Nallin broke into the American
League, the first named as manager
of the White Sox and the latter as
umpire, no one would have thought
that not so many years later they
would be brother umpires. That TACT
recalls an interesting yarn.
The first umpire to chase Rowland
from the Chicago ball park was
Nallin, and despite the fact that it
was the debut of both of them, be
did it something after this fashion.

SPENCER ABBOTT
HEARKENS TO CALL
OF BALL ORCHARD

There are some veterans OF the
game who just simply cannot divorce
themselves from the actual seat of
battle. The case of Spencer Abbott
is a typical one. When he surren-
dered the management of the Reading
team of the International League last
season and took a job as chief of
scouts for Brooklyn everybody thought
he had an ideal connection as ivory
emissary extraordinary for Uncle Rob
by. But apparently Spencer felt the
urge Of actual contact with the ball
field.
Anyway, George Muehlebach, owner
Of the Kansas City team of the Ameri-
can Association, went to the late
worlds series and came back with Abb
bOtt as manager of his team. he takes
the place vacated by Johnny Lavan,
who will devote his entire time to his
medical profession in the future,

BROWNSVILLE. Tex, Nov. IL

BROWNSVILLE, Tex, Nov. III
4 two weeks polo tournment in which
six teams from Texas and Mexico viii
take part is planned for Brownsville
some time in January, 1t was an
nounced here following conference Of
the Fort Brown Polo Club and direc-
tors of the local chamber of commerce.
This will be the first polo tourna-
ment ever held in Brownsville, and
one of the few international tourna-
ments ever held along the border, as
team from Matamoros, Mexico, viii
be represented in the competition.
Games have been played here many
times. especially between the Fort
Ringgold and Fort Brown army teams,
but no tournament of games has ever
been held.
Lieutenant B. NJ. Creel Of Fort
Brown is making arrangements for
| the tournament.

the Houston Polo Club, a team from
Fort Sam Houston at San Antonio,
the Fort Ringgold polo team, a team
from the military garrison at Mata-
HiVioS anu tNO ltdLnS Will De entered
from Fort Brown, army camp here.
These six teams will start the tour
nament and continue in a series of
games for the championship, the play
taking two weeks.
Finances for the expenses inciden-
tai to n tournament of such proper
tons will be raised by the sale of
parking space at the polo field, the
plans adopted provide. This is In ac-
cordance with the method of financ-
ing Fort Brown athletics carried out
last year. Response of Brownsville
people at that time was generous and
enough season tickets were sold to pro-
vide for all athletic expenses involved
in polo and other games.
NOT NAMED YET.
Due to the fact that this tourna-
ment is to be an annual affair, those
in charge of it are hunting a name
for the tourney. 1t has been suggested
that it be called the "Midwinter Polo
Tournament Of the Lower Rio Grande
Valley" although this name has not
been finally accepted.
Details have yet TO be worked out.
Trophies will be provided, the nature
of which has not been announced. En-
tertainment for the visiting polo play
ers is planned in a general way, and
also provision will be made to enter
tain the hundreds of persons expected
here for the tournament.
The tourney as an annual feature is

YANKEE BALL PARK

AFTER ENLARGEMENT

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Colonel
Jacob Rupert has decided to increase
the seating capacity OF the Yankee
Stadium to accommodate about $4,000
spectators. The huge arena, as it is
today, affords room for about $1,000
in the stands Ordinarily that would
be an extraordinary baseball crowd,
but Colonel Rupert wishes to enlarge
the stadium so as to take care of the
football crowds next fall. Should the
Yankees be fortunate enough to get
into the 1926 world series, tn" $4,000
seats might be occupied as the ma
tional game, once in its infancy. still

TES PICK
UP PHENOM
IN RHYME:

The worlds champion Pittsburgh
team. as it stands. is one which should
not begin to deteriorate generally fol
several seasons. 1t has youth-a pre-
ponderance of it-speed, and above
all. driving power.
But that does not mean that it is
a perfect functioning machine in tn
sense that Manager Bill McKechnie
would like to have it. Not by a long
shot. A good carpenter is one who
always sees that all the joists are
plumb, and Bill is a good carpenter.
Recent purchasc-at huge outlay
of money and three players-for
spring delivery of Harold (''Hal')
Rhyme. shorstop of the San Francisco
team. along with his team mate, Out
fielder Paul Waner. indicates that
these two players will appear in the
Pirates lineup next season.
BEST IN YEARS.
Both carry regulations of being the
best produced in several years in the
Coast League and Barney Dreyfuss
went higher to get them than any
other major league club dared to go.
There have been rumblings since
the worlds series that Rhyme will
probably be converted into second
baseman. 1t would be difficult to see
how anybody could be better short
stop than Wright, and Traynor at
third is the best. perhaps, in both
leagues. Rhyme is chap who it is said
could move over to the keystone sack
without bit Of trouble. And Wanef,
who hit 800 the past season and 1856
the year before, is also a very capable
first baseman.
LAD OF "a.
But about this chap Rhyme. He is
about "a years old, good to look at
and is rated a better infield than Tony
LaZcrre. whom the Yankees got from
Salt Lake. He will not hit many home
runs, but OH the whole is strong all
around player. He covers lot of
ground. can throw. think and is a
dangerous man at the plate.
He began his career late in 1920,
going directly to the San Francisco
team from the semi-pros. In 1921 he
was optioned TO Des Moines of the
Western League and went back to the
Seals a full-fledged Glass IA player.

in his work. He batted- .314 the past

Seattle gets pitcher who knows
how to keep cool. He is Steve Che.

Arctic circuit, recently signed by

club of the Pacific Coast League. He
was discovered five hundred miles
north of Athabasca Landing, pitching
in a snowstorm for a team which con.
sisted of five Eskimos, three fur seals
and polar bear. Steve was captured
alive by the Royal Northwest Mounted
Police scouts and traded to Seattle for

HERE'S SIMPLE WAY
TO CUT HOMER CROP

Brushing the dust off the leaves
OF an old baseball guide brought to
light and amusing incident of some
twenty years ago in the old Texas
League. Paris and Corsicana were
battling at the latter place. The Paris
stickmen larruped the ball that hot
August day and won the tilt, 13 to 2,
nine Of the runs being homers, which
was some feat in those days when a
home-run in game was worth a stick
or two of mention.
These nine homers so impressed the
Corsicana club owners that they act,
ually moved their fences back when
Paris came back on another visit. OF
course, the fences in those days were
mostly picket and easy to move, espc-
cially the Outfield.

WADE KILLIFER JUST
LOVED TO SACRIFICE

Many a player nowadays balks at
The idea of going up there to sacrifice.
Whenever they do they should have
in mind what Wade Killefer, brother
of Bill. turned some fifteen years
ago. Wade went up there five times
and each time he was told to sacri-
flee and he did. 1t set record for
give-yourself-up-play and it showed
that Killefer was playing for the re-
suit of the game-not his own individ-
ual batting average.

EVANS PROVES HIS
GOLF STILL GOOD

As if to prove that he was not

amateur golf champion, showed the
way 70 fine field in the Kansas
City open title meeting recently, lead
ing the professionals with a seventy
two hole total Of 2S3. That was
four strokes better than Al Espinosa,
of Chicago. Chick finished sensation

starting the last eighteen holes, was
three strokes in the lead. Walter Ha-
gen had n 2S9, Bobby Cruikshank, 300
and Bill Mehlhorn 293.
