Looked for Success.

When Bush was traded to Washing
ton, after spending year at St. Louis,
he expressed great delight, said it
meant another world series for him and
announced that with ball club like
Washington back of him he would con-
tribute 20 victories,
I rather concurred in his opinion,
feeling that the large playing field
and the strong defensive play of the
Washington club would be of great
help to Bush. He just couldn't get go
ing.
All reports to the contrary, there is
considerable sentiment in baseball. I,
for one, hate to see outstanding stars
like Alexander and Bush reach the end
of their string.

The waiver Route.

Going the way of the waiver route
is rather tough experience for a big
league star.
Recently, within the week, two of the
outstanding pitchers of the majors,
Grover Cleveland Alexander and Joe
Bush, have experienced that ignomfny.
One club in the National league, the
st. Louis Cardinals, claimed Alexander

as the National, waived on Bush Bush

Arrived Same mime.

Alexander and Bush came to the ma
jors at about the same time, in the
same city, Philadelphia.
The great Alexander made his Ma
tional league debut in 1911 with the
Phillies, while Bush Joined with the
Athletics the following season, but
worked in only a few games.
For years Alexander has occupied
much the same position in the National
league as Walter Johnson has in the
American, the outstanding right-hand-
ers of their respective organizations.
The record of Alexander is more i'm
posing than that of Bush, although Joe
has done some great work during his
Is years of service.
On eight occasions Alexander has
won 20 or more games during the sea-
son. His three best years were 1916
1917, when he won 81, S3 and 80
games, respectively.

Bush,s ..Fork'' Ball.

BuShS "FOrk" WALL
During the 1919 campaign, while
Bush was undergoing various treat
ments in an effort to bring back his
ARM he began series of experiments
with freak deliveries.
At the close of the season he had de-
veloped what was generally called the
fork" bail. Bush held it between the
fingers of his pitching hand and so re-
leased the ball that it broke not un-
like a splitter.
Instead of being through, as sup

Discovered by Mack.

Joe Bush was discovered by Connie
Mack out at MissouIa, Mont and made
good from the start. He did fine work
for Mack for five seasons.
When Connie started to clean house
with his all-star ball club, Bush was
one of the players he parted With.
AT the close of the 1917 chase he was
traded to the Boston club with Amos
Strunk and Wally Schang for players
Gregg, Thomas, Kopp and cash report

After one season with Boston, in
which he broke even with Is victories
and defeats, he suffered arm trouble
that Kept him out of the game prac-
tically the entire 1919 season. He ap-
peared in three games, working nine
innings.
The consensus of the ball players
was that Bush was through.
