Good control. 1t can be acquired
by constant practice. When warm
ing up, instead of merely throwing
the ball to his catcher, pitcher
should aim to place it at a certain
height.
Having something left in reserve.
Don't make it practice to put all
your stuff on every ball pitched Try
to have something a little bit differ
ent up your sleeve when the opposi-
ton starts to hit you.
Don't try for strikeouts. Just re-
member you have eight other play
ers in the field anxious to help you.
Go for a strikeout only when it is
most necessary to winning.
I'm this connection 1 refer you to
the world series game in which |
was called on to relieve Haines with
the bases filled and two out. Go for
a strikeout in such a spot pitched
to Lazzeri's weakness and put every
thing l had on each ball.
Figure all batters dangerous.
Never loaf on any batter no matter
how poor a hitter he is supposed to
be. Weak hitters break up ball
games almost as often as the slug
gers"

NEED OF Dictator FOR PGILSTC SPORT AGAIN STRESSED
New Baseball Scandal Gives
Way to Cry for Boxing
Gar.
BY Paul w. White,
United Press staff Correspondent

United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT
NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-The new
est baseball scandal has given i'm
petus to the ever-recurrent demand
for a boxing dictator" whose duties
would be similar to those of Com
missioner K. NJ. Lands, car of the
diamond game.
Derelictions from copy-book con-
duct among fighters are more COM
mon than among ball players, ac-
cording to most followers of profess
sional sport, and a cry for a thor
ough "airing out" of the prize ring
has been gaining in volume and We
hemence.
Would-Be Problem
Difficulties in the way of immedi-
ate selection of a commissioners of
boxing are obvious.
Baseball was already an organized,
interstate proposition before Judge
Lands appeared to take the reins.
But boxing is ruled over by State
boards with hundreds of petty jeal-
ousies to deal with and the national
association of the sport thus far
has failed to function satisfac' orily.
Attention of other States, how
ever, is directed toward New York,
which may soon turn to a one-man
overseer of boxing.
Governor Smith is expected to
abolish the present athletic commits
sion and appoint a man who has
the confidence of fans and boxers
alike to control ring activities in
the State.
Many DisappOintments
The present commission of three
has done little to forward the sport.
Commissioners Farley, Muldoon and
Brewer have disagreed on virtually
every important question put before
them and have aroused managerial
ire by considering matchmaking a
part of their business.
The recent arrest of Gene Tunney
at the reported behest of Commits
sioner Farley is said to have aroused
the Governors indignation. Many
of the fans believed the heavyweight
champion was prosecuted for polit-
ical reasons, and Governor Smith,
not a boxing enthusiast himself, has
been embarrassed by some of the
trick rulings and activities of the
athletic commission.
If n boxing dictator should prove
capable within New York State.
eliminating much of the present
shoddiness, an increase of his duties
to national scope would be possible.
Responsible officials of every State
are anxious to clean house with the
pugilistic game, but are hampered
under existing conditions because of
the situation which permits a boxer
disqualified in one State to fight in
another.

Collins signature to a contract
Thursday, which was Macks sixty,

1906 after his brilliant athletic rec
ord at Columbia University.
Il am delighted" Mack exclaimed
as he announced Collins return.
Collins said his injured legs felt
stronger and that he believed he
would have great year, despite his
twenty years of grueling diamond
play.

MEN OF EDUCATION

NE of the White Sox players
could neither read nor write;
J several others were but
slightly more advanced, intellectual
ly. 1t was an easy matter for the
slick gamblers, aided by a couple Of
the smarter players, to draw the
slow thinkers into the gambling
coup that for time rocked the very
foundations of baseball.
Ty Cobb, greatest ball player of
all time, and iris Speaker, the in
comparable, are men of education,
keen minds, supposedly superior in
tellect. 1t is hard to imagine these
supe1-players of super-intellect as
pla m fiXers.
What makes the episode all the
more homogeneous is the fact that
the fixers, if any, in this case, gam
bled for petty stakes. There was no
big killing to sway conscience or
morals, according to the allegations.
It is difficult to picture Tyrus Ray
mond Cobb and Tristan Speaker as
fixers, for here we have two of the
wealthiest men in baseball Cobb,
millionaire, playing a penny ante
game with marked cards! That's the
charge.
