PERMITS RESIN
FOR HURLERS

NEW YORK. Jan. 80 Ban
johnson and the American League
have failed to keep thes use of
resin out Of the major leagues
Judge Landisa one Of the members
OF the joint rules committee IN
session here. cast the deciding
vote i'll favor Of the National
Leagues motion TO permit pitchers
to use resin to dry their hands.
The white-haired Lands believes
that pitchers hands should be
free from moisture or Precipitation
when throwing the ball TO the plate
and for that reason voted in the
affirmative for the use Of resin. It
was his opinion and that Of several
other members Of the committee,
that more than one pitcher was
rubbing resin on his hands one
way or the other last season.
Only the American League MEM
bers o. the committee - Connie
Mack, manager of the Philadelphia
Athletics; Tommy Connolly. vet
.eran umpire, and Cy Sanborn
were opposed to the use of the
resin bag. They pointed out that
although they were not directly
opposed to the resin bag, II was
likely to open the way for the re-
turn of the many freak deliveries
banished in 1920. Therefore they
voted againsteth resin bag.
The vote was to 2. Casting
their ballots in favor Of the resin
bag were William Veeck, president
of the Chicago Cubs; Sam Breadon,
president OF the st. Louis Carti-
nails, and Fred Clarke, representing
the National League. Dale Gear,
president OF the Western League,
representing the minor leagues,
and Commissioners Lands.
The joint rules COMMITTEES Is
or change the playing rules and its
action Ii final. Therefore. the um,
pires will throw a sealed bag 81
resin behind the pitchers box be
fore each game next season. The
pitcher working In tie game will
be permitted to pat the bag against
his hands so as to dry them IL they
are perspirfng. This will give them
better control Of their curve tails
and eliminate TfIa.ly bases on balls.
It will be the duty of the um-
pire, however, to see that the
pitcher does not rub his hand too
hard against the bag so that he
can apply some OF the resin dust
to the ball and make it sail.
The freak delivery reached its
height in 1919. when certain pitch
ers, by the use Of q little resin
or emory. could make the ball do
strange tricks. ''Hod" EIler. of .he
Reds, pitched an emory bah" in
1919 that was almost impossible to
hit.
Many big league pitchers have
complained that it was almost Inn
possible on q hot afternoon to con-
troll their curve balls. They pointed
out that the batter Is permitted to
rub resin on his hands before going
TO the plate so as to get better
grip on the bat. One big league
pitcher asserted 1t was not fair
to permit the batter to use resin
and not the pitcher.

HUGG|NS KEEPS
HIS Ak SHARP

NEW YORK, Jan. 3O.-During
the space of the last ten calendar
months the Yankee clearing house
of baseball ivory has seen thirty
five different players pass through
it's portals. That Is a lot OF men
to be disposed of, almost enough
to make four full teams.
During the 1925 season twenty
seven players were released or
transferred. Since the campaign
closed Manager Higgins disposed
of eight more players. Ernie john
son and Howard Shanks were cut
adrift. Wanninger was sent to st.
Paul. Mamaux was sold to Newark.
Pipp was sold to Cincinnati, Duro-
cher and Luebbe were farmed to
Atlanta and Mentally was released
to the Buffalo club.
The Mite Manager will soon be
in town and he may announce that
the ak has fallen on a few more
fellows. If the Yanks could in
crease their total releases to forty
within a twelve month period they
could boast a. new record.

That "All the world loves

the interest shown in the sprint

is acquired by our champion dash

athlete TO invade America since
