Speaking of Father Hurney,

A really splendid production,
done in fine taste with every
body working like Trojans and
a tone Of professionalism about
it that reflects on the unusual
efforts of Father Hurney, his
director, Airing Alcine, and par
ticularly his costume designer.
In case you don't know,
Madeleine Baker, wife of
Washington newspaperman, de-
signed the costume plates from
which the finished TUNES, de-
corated Palestine party frocks
and all the>rest were made.
Mrs. Baker has done a fine
job of it, bringing to her work
the excellencies of artistic taste,
the best Of color-sense, and an
appreciation of design and atmos-
phere seldom equalled by the
highly-rated experts who are
elected to Vanity Fairs hall of

many champions. Mike takes the
Washington pitching staff South
every spring and he knows how
to watch a pitching arm. Poor
old Mike, I thought he was going
to die when / walked toward the
box in that last world series game.
His face was as white as q sheet.
And let me say right here, that
if it hadn't been for his help and
care, when I caught cold in my
arm in 1920, I wouldn't have ever
seen world series, except sitting
In a grandstand.
ST don't think there's ever been
a pitcher with an arm like yours"
Mike has often said, as I've laid
on the rubbing slab in the club
house. And according to measure
ments, guess Mike il right. The
span of my arm is about six inches
longer than the average man Of
my height. There is very little
muscle in either arm; instead they
are long and soft. That's the
reason you have lasted so long"
Mike explains. He claims an arm
like mine will never harden or tie
up.
The matter Of rest and con-
serving strength Is something that
young pitchers seldom consider
particularly conserving strength.
Mike Martin was always after me
to take more rest. He watched
me like a nurse. On a cold or
rainy day, he'd be around with a
sweater and nearly all the COM
forts Of home. But in my younger
years l made the usual mistake
of pitching hard all the time.
Matty was one pitcher who knew
how to store up strength for the
climax in a game. Nobody ever
saw Mathewson pitch hard to a
batter when the bases were empty.
And even with men on bases, 1t
depended on the score and the
inning, as to how much he would
bear down." There was time, a
few years back, when / was
striking out 200 batters each sea
son. One year l struck out S03
and in 1910 my total was 31S.
But when l grew older and con-
siderably wiser, l let UP on my
strikeout efforts except when I
was in a hole. Today I wish l
had some of the speed I wasted
ten years back.

civilities to the players around
them.

However, Reydler speaks for a
bigger, better and less acrimonious
future, and his idea, therefore, is
not without merit. If umpires in
spring training camps cause rumors
to be placed in circulation, then let
the umpires spend their late win
ters elsewhere. That, at any rate,
will be Heydler's suggestion to
them.
There are certain reasons why I
consider this to be good thing, he
added. After some Of the things
that baseball has gone through
lately we must be especially care
full. When a close decision goes
against a, team and it is rendered
by an umpire who was South with
the opposing team, it is possible
that insinuations might be made
that the official is helping the club
he grew intimate with on the train
ing trip. OF course, such charges
are silly, but we have too much
half kidding innuendoes in baseball,
and I, for my part, want to stop
any such talk by removing the

There Is probably not the slight
est harm in the close association
OF an umpire and members of ball
club, but consider 1t detrimental
to the morale Of the umpire corps.
Heydler said recently. During the
regular season we keep the umpires
and players strictly and studiously
apart when they are not on the ball
field. On training trips the umpires
stop at the same hotel with the
players. ride on the same Pullmans
and often participate. in the general
social life Of the ball club with
which they travel. This is a con.

three catchers worth while have
been developed by Connie Mack in

Lapp, Waily Schang and Ralph
ICY Perkins.
That is a starting statement
but it is true. Isaminger points
out that Ira Thomas, Ossie Schreck
and the late Doc Powers were all

got them from other clubs. They
