grim rigidity from his strained. hard

Faith could stand it no longer,

where Hathaway was waiting to

No Authority to
Ban Resin

BELLAIItE, Fla, April Amer
lean League officials have no author
ity to prevent their pitchers using
resin on their hands, Commissioner
Lands ruled today in a statement
answering a query from John II.
Farrell, secretary Of the minor
leagues, asking-"does the new resin
ball rule permit leagues a choice Of
it's adoption or r~ejection?"
The rules committee last winter,
by the vote of Lands and the repre-
sentatives of the National and some
minor leagues, adopted a rule per-
hitting pitchers to rub resin on their
hands but it was voted down by the
American League and several minor
leagues.
The American Association voted
against resin. Indianapolis voted to
forbid it's use.

initial game, but the first four
named have already gone through

Pittsburgh Pirates, answered

Still, it must be admitted, he an
swered the question because, unless
the other pennant-chasers of the
National League have improved con-
~siderably, Pittsburgh looks to repeat.
However, the Pirates have Jared
none too we'll in their spring train
ing. The condition of the club Is
a matter of much concern.
McKechnie's 1926 team is the team
with which he won the worlds cham
pionship. Some of his champions
are not now in good condition, but
McKechnie has grabbed two out
standing players from the Coast
league-Hal Rhyme, infielder, and
Paul Waner, o%utfielder, both pur-
chased from San Francisco.
Rhyme and Waner
Rhyme and Waner not only have
added a lot of money to the box
office receipts Of the training games,
but they have shown such class that
McKechnie isn't losing sleep over the
temporary indispositions Of Max
Carey and Pie Traynor, who may
not be able to start the season.
Carey is recovering very slowly
from an operation and Traynor
wrenched his leg badly early in
training. Moore. second baseman'
has a sprained ankle.
They'll be all right" smiles Nc
Kechnie. What are the other
teams doing?"
Pittsburgh probably will start the
season with Rhyme on third, Wright
at Short, Rawlings at Second and
Grantham on first.
OF course Rhyme is not Pie
Traynor, but his work in the field
and at bat is impressive and thus
far he has held his own with the
three other members Of the inleld
quartet.
Walloping Ball
In the outfield, Paul Waner, a
little shy, Of course, has been
chasing the flies. And at the bat he
has been w~alloping the ball in the
same style that made him the best
hitter Of the Coast League last
year.
Cuyler is going great guns. Big
bee has been subbing for Barn
hardt, who was rather badly hurt
by a ball early in the training
season.
McKechnie's pitchers r in fine

April Fool,
Fans!
Pat Walsh Biggest Joke
Seen in Local Ring
Reynolds Beats Tate
LangfOrd.

April fool, boxing fansI The bout
was pulled off just about an hour
before April /. Wednesday night, at
Tomlinson Hall, but it was a good
joke, anyway.
Pat Walsh of New York and vari-
Gus other points, was the joke and
the fans were the unwilling victims.
Pat, who looks big and tough,
hardly could raise his gloves against
MulholIand in the main go of the
Progress A. c.. show. He looked as
though he weer walking on eggs. His
lower limbs didn't seem to be in CO.
ordination and his arms were not
any better.
AS long as a be remembered he
was the worst alleged fighter ever
perpetrated on the local public. Most
Of the fans expected to sec another
Mulholland victory. They expected
to see q veteran, but they did not
expect to see a man who could bare
ly crawl through the ropes.
What Was the Matter?
Just what was the matter with the
big boy is not known. He actually
looked as thought he was doped. He
could not move around and could
not hit nor protect himself.
Referee Mike Mitchell stopped the
fight once in the second round, which
was the thing to do. Some of the
fans wanted to see the affair go on.
They wanted something more for
their money.
The fight went on-for about a
minute while Mulholland hammered
Pat. Then Walsh slumped down in
one corner and Mike walked away
from him. The fight "a over. 1t
probably was a technical knockout
for the Butler bombarder. 1t was a
regular K. o. for the fans. But
what's the use Of talking any more
about it.
Other Bouts Good
The other bouts on the card were
good. Jackie Reynolds, Muncie
lightweight. proved too tough for
Tate Langford of Louisville. Jackie
continually waded in with telling re-
suits. Tate had a badly battered ear,
and some of those bloodthirsty ones
at the ringside who cry for blood
took some home with them. The
dry cleaners will be busy today.
Larry Pruitt, local feather, had
better find someone else to fight be-
sides Royal Cox, also of this city.
Royal repeated his victory of a cou-
pie of weeks ago in last nights show.
Cox won all the way. He's a smart
boy, that Royal. His left is light
ming.
JoefDillon and Johnny Murphy, To-
cal feathers, put up an even battle,
but Murphy had the slight edge. The
third round was Dillon's big three
minutes, when some of his haymak-
ers got over. Jackie Stewart gave
Cappadora another defeat in the
opening prelim.

rounds in balkline history, Willie

AT the beginning of play Wednes-
