e The mistake many young pitch
ers make is in getting too excited
in the pinch. They are natural with
their pitching until several runners
get on. Say it is a tie score.
What happens? The pitcher feels
he must get a tighter grip on the
ball, he must use moro speed and
the result is he is trying to burn
the ball past the batters without
any judgment.
Remember this-use the head as
much as the arm. l am meeting
with pretty good success by COM
.bining the head with the arm.
Another thing--I have never been
able to agree with the pitchers who,
when they get two strikes and no
balls on a batter, deliberately waste
one or two pitches. They do not
tease their batter by putting one
close to the strike line and give
them the chance of having the
batter chase it.
Don't waste anything. With two
strikes and no balls give the batter
the next one that will 6e close to
a corner. Frequently you may nip
the corner.

confident it is a ball. Sometimes the
umpires do not agree with them and,
like the pitcher, believe it is over.
That, of course, is one of the gam
bles of the game,
To throw a ball so wide of the
plate that there is no doubt in the
mind of anyone that it is bad ball
is wasted effort. If pitcher in
sists on not getting the ball over,
he should keep it close enough that
the batsman may be tempted to so
after it, and there is the possibility
the umpire may rule it a strike.
That is smart pitching.

NEW YORK, April 6.-The flow
ers that bloom in the spring tra-la-la
are not the only blossoms on the
landscape. There is a whole mess of
par and DOGGY horticulturists at
work and if they keep up with the
winter pace they are setting there
will be thunderous explosions in the
golf world this summer.
Bobby Cruikshank' sensational
string of victories. including the
Texas. South Central, Los Angeles,
United North and South opens,
mark him as being ready for
national title-seeking.

He is the only Joe College of the
outfit. Bobby DOTTED the cap and
gown of Edinburgh University and
went to work dragging down tourna-
ment purses.
His triumphs have been in meets
making him the big dollars and
cents man of the season.
Down in Florida, Gene SaraZcn
has returned to his best medal play
form, taking the Miami and the
Miami Beach opens with plenty to
spare. His 277 in the latter was the
best performance of the winter up
to that time.
Light Horse" Harry Cooper
galloped home at Monterey and also
knocked off Hagen in 72-hole walk
away; Joe Turnesa won at Sacra-
mento; Bill Mehlhorn was the Santa
Clara victor; Tommy Armour was
the winner at Long Beach.
Playing Good Game
Wild Bill, the reformed plasterer,
has been playing better golf on
cards than any of them if averages
mean anything. He is a shade over
70 for 324 holes. Armour has 20.
Cruikshank and Turnesa 1872, and
Cooper "a Hagen is in slump and
his cards of "A, 80, II and 70 do not
sound like the Sir Walter of old.
IN lHe last lOuF I. u. "A. cildIn-
pionship Hagen has won nineteen
matches and lost one-a defeat at
the hands of Sarazen. Since then
he has taken fifteen consecutive
matches in p. G. A. play; so frenzied
efforts to bury him in his current
slump are nothing if not ludicrous
In the open tournaments this sum-
mer both Hagen and Sarazen will
find their hands full with Cruik-
shank, Turnesa, Mehlhorn and
others coming on like a horse and
buggy.

BOYS AND THEIR SPELLING

Principal William c. French Of the Central junior high school is quoted as saying he is proud of the manner In which the girls can spell but is ashamed of the boys-or words to that effect.
 When We were young We also were ashamed of our spelling. Sister could beat us to a frazzle. In fact, sister seems to have paid much much more attention to the niceties of projecting the proper letter In the right place. while we just didn't give hang about it-"just so 1t can be understood" was our blase motto for a long time.
 But sister couldn't run. hop and skip like we could; she couldn't throw a ball to first base, or stop q hot one off the bat; she couldn't hike IS miles into the country and not feel it at all--in fact. she was too much afraid of snakes to hike very far out of town. In truth, sis ter couldn't do a lot of things we did. and we frequently sympathized with her for being a girl. But she could spell-boy. she could spell.

Although the British may have greeted this warfare between the Cantonese with satisfaction there is nvidence that 1t may be of short duration. The Hankow reds have proven themselves so weak that Chiang's virile thrusts promise to end the defection in his army in a short time.
 General Chen Chien. one Of the Hankow generals, was the Canton csc general who occupied Ranking when the Cantonese took 1t. He bears the responsibility for the out rage against foreigners which pro- duced the identic note from the pow CTS. Since that time Chiang evil dently has harbored a well.devel- oped grudge against Chen for this mistake. The punitive expedition of Chiang can safely be regarded as one seeking to punish Chen for per hitting the outrage. and also for setting up a separate government" in Hankow.
