GEN. SUMMERALLI
| s RECALLED
TO WASHINGTON

PITTSBURGH. Oct 13 tP,-Major
General Charles P. Summerall, chief
of staff of the army has been re-
called from his western inspection
trip by President Coolidge for con-
ference on the budget.
Everett Sanders, secretary to Mr..
Coolidge, made this announcement to-
night after a day of mystery over
the sudden departure of General
Summerall, from the west for Wash
ington.
Mr. Coolidge authorized the state
ment that he wished to confer with
General Summerall about the budget
program. Other than this there was
no comment on his behalf regarding
the generals return.
The president has taken similar
action in the past, members of his
party recalling that during the cam
paign of 1924 he called Secretary
Wilbur to Washington for confer
ence on navy plans just before the
secretary was to make a speech in
Denver.
While there have been indications
that there was some dissatisfaction
over a speech made by General Sum-
neral in the west, those about the
president insisted that Mr.. Coolidge
was interested solely in conferring
with the general about the budget.
General Summeral spoke while in
the west about army housing facilities
and this question is included in the
budget plans for next year
Since publication OF the speeches
by General Summerall, it has been
made known at the White House
that the president contemplates an
increase in expenditures next year
for national defense, including addi-
tional army housing facilities.
At the same time, however, Mr..
Coolidge has let it be known that
strict economy program must be
followed during the coming session
Of congress if tax reduction is going
to be possible.

I1sE or RESIN BALL

American league pitchers are Won
dering what action will be taken on
the resin rule after the retirement of
President Johnson.
During his long connection with the
American league he founded, Mr..
johnson has always been against de-
ception. He SO regarded the permit
ting of the pitchers to use resin.
Z While baseball rules permit the
pitcher to use resin, American league
twirlers have never once asked for 1T
and, as a result, only pitchers who
actually had it on their person used it.
No doubt the thought of the sue
cessor to President johnson will de-
termine the policy of the American
league next season relative to the much
discussed resin bag.

MORE AID TO BATTER

Despite the fact Babe Ruth hit 60
home runs the past season and his
teammate, Lou Gehrig, was runnerup
with 46, there are still those who be-
lieve the pitchers are again getting
the upper hand.
Some years ago, when such con-
dition really existed and most games
were pitchers battles, the lively ball
and the ban on freak deliveries were
introduced to handicap the pitchers.
The reform desired was accomplished.
Recently, I received suggestion
from r. w. Williams, an attorney of
Wytheville, Va, relative to the foul
strike rule. 1t is interesting because
he doesn't want to make any radical
change, other than that the first foul
shall not be counted as strike. Here
is his suggestion.
do not count the first foul hit by
batter strike. You no doubt have
often noticed a batter compelled by
the exigencies of the game to let one
in the groove go by. He fouls off
the next one AS a result he is in the
hole and forced to swing at any ball
that is doubtful for fear of being call
ed out"

Curve ball pitching is benefited
by the use of resin because it en-
abIes the pitcher to get a better
grip on the ball. Perhaps that
explains why that style pitching is
more popular in the National than
American.

WILL SCOUTING CONTINUE?


Is the abolition of the scouting sys-
tenn, to which a number of the leading
colleges have agreed, going to purify
the game of football.
I don't think so. AS a matter of
fact, it is my belief that the rule is
going to breed deception, make for
hypocrisy. just how valuable for scout
ing system is football really is only the
coaches can answer A majority are
keen for it, while few if any, say it
has no particular value. Therefore, it
must be more or less worth while.
Once upon. a time, football scouts
tried to conceal their identity but
seldom got away with it. Some years
ago the leading coaches decided to be
above board in all things pertaining to
scouting.
When coach sent several men to
scout a team, he would inform the
opposition of his intents requeGting
they be supplied with seats, and SO
forth. The scouts would then be well
coined by ttl1e rival college and given
every consideration.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-10-14

Under the nom scouting system,
hypocrisy is sure to enter into
preparation for the various big
games, since dope is sure to be
slipped the coaches from various
sources and it will be a difficult
matter for them to discriminate as
to what advice they shOuIG or
should not accept.
