hero stuff, in the weirdest exhibit
ton of pitching, featuring both
good and bad, that I ever have
called balls and strikes over.
Peckinpaugh's performance fea-
tured five bases on balls In as many
appearances at the plate. I do not
recall the pitchers who worked the
game, there were several, but do
recall Philadelphia as the opposing
team.
TXTHEN Peckinpaugh received
w five bases. on balls in game
at Philadelphia on June 2. 1919, as
a member Of the Yankees, he didn't
establish a record. Back in 1891,
Walter Wilmot, then with the Chi
cago Nationals, worked opposition
tWirlers for six passes. Thirty-six
years have passed and the feat Of
getting six bases on balls in one
game remains undisturbed.
Seven players in the history OF
the major leagues have received
five bases on balls. However, I
doubt if any of the seven had an
experience similar to that Of Peck
inpaugh's.
Going to the plate five times in
the game, Peckinpaugh didn't Of
fer at a single ball. He could
have left his bat at the bench as
far as swinging at the ball was
concerned.
THE freak part Of the happening
Il was that in each instance the
count was three balls and two
strikes before he finally was
ranked to first. In each time at
bat Pickinpaugh played out the
string, but in working the pitcher
to the limit he refrained from
striking at a single ball.
For real drama, however, Keat-
ing's debut as a pitcher had Peck's
rather drab base-cn-b perform
ance backed off the boards.
When a pinch hitter was pressed
into service for the New York
pitcher in the first half Of the
eighth, in game at st. Louis some
years ago, Heating was selected as
the pitcher to finish the game.
n y
His deceptive spit ball that was
% fxnI vaIv
ness that went with his big league
debut, had Heating working un-
der severe strain.
II
II EATING gave three bases on
balls in the first inning he ever
Worked in the majors and in be-
tween he struck out three other
men to face him. The count on each
Of the six batters to face him was
three balls and two strikes.
Heating walked the first, third and
fifth batters. He struck out the
second and fourth, so there was real
''nelerdrammer" on tap when the
sixth batter Of the inning stepped
to the plate with the bases filled.
I called the batter out with the
count three and two, on ball Which
the batsman insisted was away be-
low the knee, but thought good
enough to be strike.

CINCINNATI, December 14.-Tired

ever witnessed, both sides in the
murder trial of George Remus,r the
former king of bootleggers," who

They promised to round out pre-

such new evidence as brought out by
the States rebuttal the defense had
but a few more words it could say
in behalf of the former Chicago
lawyer.
There remained, however, the ques.
ton of testimony of the three alien
lists who daily since the trial started
November II have observed the de-
PENDANT. Their original and tentative
report was that he was sane October
s and was sane when he was brought
to trial.
Prosecutor Charles P. Taft, II, said
he had no intention of calling the
alienists and expressed the idea that
the defense would not call them.
That would leave the matter up to
Judge Chester r.. Shook, who has
stated that if neither side called the
doctors he would.
Whether Dodge would face Remus
from the witness stand today had not
been decided by prosecutor Taft last
night.

Missing Seven Days.

HOUGHTON, Mich, December IA
Members of the Eagle Harbor Coast
Guard crew, under command Of Capt.
Glaza, today prepared to leave for
search of the keweenaw Peninsula
shores for trace of the Canadian pack
age freighter Kamloops. lost during
the recent storm on Lake Superior.
The Kamloops has been missing for
seven days. with no. trace of It re-
ported from any point, and fears
have grown that 1t has sunk, car.
rying with it the % officers and men
who comprised the crew.
Marine men are of the opinion that
the only hope for the safety of the
ka4nloops is the chance that ii might
have made a successful run to some
Isolated harbor on the north Canadian
shore, where 1t was frozen in or run
aground.
Men familiar with the lake during
its furious outbreaks fear the ship
was caught on the crest of a huge
wave, such as were running for sew
eral days last week, buckled amid
ships and foundered. Such an oc.
currence is not uncommon on Lake
Superior.
Coast Guardsmen said reports ema-
mating from Montreal last night that
the wreck Of the KamIoops had been
sighted off Keweenaw Point were
without foundation.

NEW YORK, December IA
three-day visit to the United States
was explained today by Capt. Walter
q. Hinchcliffe. one-time pilot OF
Charles A. Levine's transatlantic
plane Columbia, as due to illness.
Located in conference with Levine,
the British war ace said he had con
tracted an attack of quinsy and took
the sea trip to recuperate and to
avoid communicating the illness ia
his daughter. Hinchcliffe arrived in
Boston Monday.
Roth Levine and Hinchcliffe de
scribed as unfounded rumors that the
visit was prompted by disagreement
between them over financial arrange
ments, and announcement that the
nyer was to sail for England tonight
was taken as a negative answer to
the belief of aviators that he had
come over either to fly back or. to
pjlot the Columbia on a projected en-
durance test.
Interest in the visit of Capt
Hinchcliffe was quickened by the
mystery surrounding his arrival and
subsequent actions. His name was
not on the passenger list of the liner
Cedric. and his identity was disclosed
only when, he was recognized by Eel
low passengers.
He dropped out Of sight in Boston
after announcing that he would leave
at once for New York. Cable dis
matches from London yesterday said
that he was believed to be in Am
sterdam.
Capt. Hinchclihe's business connec.
tIons with Levine commenced last
summer, when he was engaged by
Levine to pilot the Columbia, which
Clarence Chamberlin had flown from
New York TO Germany, on a return
transatlantic hop.

trouble commenced.
The Hippodrome was one Of the
worst sufferers. The victorious Cam

large part of the audience was
composed OF Oxonians. The uproar
became so great that the manager
went before the curtain and appealed
for order. This had little effect and
