Chick Galloway May Get Chance
to Prove Worth as Big Lacquer
Former Athletics ShorStop, RELOCATED to Minors Sc
cures New Lease on Life in Majors.

only one years experience in profess
sional circles, hardly expected him
to step right into the lineup. The
following season he took part in
ninety-eight games, showing i'm
provement in all features of play.
However, it was not until 1921 that
he was definitely established as the
regular shortstop on the Athletics.
That season he batted 265, big in
crease over the previous year when
his mark was but 202.
Without a doubt, the season of
1922 stands cut as the big year of
GalloWay's career. The experts rated
him the most improved ball player
in the Americana League for that
season. A majority of them in Sc
Letting their all-star teams from the
junior circuit honored Galloway by
naming him for the position of
shortstop. He turned in the fat
figure of 1924 at bat in 155 games
that year.
1922 Was High Mark
Unquestionably 1922 was the high
spot in Chicks career. Since then
Galloway has played brilliantly and
erratically, never quite reaching the
top.
For five years, Mack jockeyed with
Galloway, hoping he ultimately
would make good on his great year
of 1922 and continue such play, but
at the close Of the 1927 season Con-
ME weakened on him. Asking and
getting waivers from all major
league clubs, he was passed on to the
minors, only to be resurrected by
George Moriarty of the Tigers.
If Jackie Tavener's throwing isn't
Handicapped by his injured finger

the bench, but if Tavener is unable
to play Chick will get his second

TINE major league sensation Of

ME major league sensation Of
4 today is very often the minor
league performer Of tomorrow.
That isn't literally true, but in a
sense it best explains the uncertain
ty a baseball manager and club
owner is up against in making his
selection Of players.
Recently the wires carried the
story that Chick Galloway. on whom
all major league clubs previously had
waived and who was sent to Mil
waukee in trade, had come back
to the majors via the Detroit Tigers.
The case of Chick Galloway, l re-
gard as a concrete example of the
great uncertainty that goes with the
game of baseball, particularly from
a major league standpoint where the
highest point of efficiency is de-
manded.
Started With Atlanta
Just ten years ago, Chick Gallo
way made his baseball debut in pro-
fessional circles as a member of the
Atlanta team of the Southern Asso-
citation. His previous baseball con-
nection had been confined to the
collegiate brand as player and coach
at Presbyterian College of South
Carolina.
Galloway joined Atlanta in the flag
end of the 1918 season and played in
only thirty-nine games. He did we'll
in the field but was weak at the bat,
hitting only 1913. The following
season he starred, jumped his bat
ting to 1858, a matter of 80 points,
and looked so good he was bought by
the Philadelphia Athletics.
Reporting to the Athletics in the
fall of 1919, Galloway was imme-
diately given a chance to prove his
worth. He played in seventeen games
and found big league pitching more
than tough, as he batted only .l43.

bushes, the first
question the man

Has he a good

that and then

some more.
No pitcher is born with a change
OF pace. 1t Is an acquired art, can
DC added to a pitchers repertoire
only through the medium of much
hard work plus a keen mind and
plenty of courage.
A change of pace is most effective
When used in pinch. In other
words, with a couple Of runners on
The sacks, Or better yet the bases
filled, and the count three and two
on the batter; that is the ideal
spot for the change of pace ball if
properly controlled.
y 4
In using the change Of pace, the
pitcher does the very thing the
words imply. shifts or rates his
pace, using exactly the same mo-
ton he does in throwing the fast
ball or curve, only much slower.
THE ability to do that very thing
u is what makes the change of
pace ball valuable. If the pitcher
must shift his pitching style in
order to resort to his change of pace,
he Immediately loses per cent of
its effectiveness through tipping off
his intent.
The change of pace is a surprise
ball. When the batter feels the
situation is too tense for the pitcher
to gamble and that it is reasonable
for him to expect the fast one, then
it is that the change OF pace COM
pletely upSetS the batSman.
In such a crisis, 1 have seen some
of the geratest batterS in the history
of the game stand as if transfixed
while they watched the floater slip
by, perfect strike, and hear the
umpire call them out. without so
much as even lifting their bat off
their shoulder.
When I came into the American
League twenty-five years ago, the
fast ball pitched high and usually
ON the inside was the most popular
delivery. Few of the batterS relished
it.
The fast ball, pitched high, had
been the vogue for perhaps ten
years prior to my entry into the
majors. Then came the era of
the spitball.
BUTCHERS carly learned, for the
4 spitball to be real effective, it
was necessary to keep it low, prefer
ably about knee high. Unquestion-
ably the Spitball changed the style
of pitching from the high to the
low ball
The spitball, by the way, was a
forerunner to an era of freak or
trick deliveries. These trick de-
liveries soon gave the pitchers such
an edge they were barred from the
game The lively ball was also in
troduced to help the batters come
back.
Next came the knuckle ball, an
honest delivery, that carries with
it much the same deception as some
of the freak styles.
However. the lively ball without a
question has revolutionized the style
of pitching, as did the spitball. No
longer has a pitcher who depends
exclusively on a fast ball a chance
to get by in the majors. He must
be able to slow up, use a change a
pace.
Now, the change of pace is all the
vogue. What will be next?

MUCH CONFUSION
SURROUNDS FIGHT
FOR PROHIBITION

| Helena, July 30.-"Much confusing
propaganda concerning the prohibition
law, which is being initiated in Mon
tana this year, has been circulated,
according to a statement by the Rev
W. L. Wade, superintendent of the
Montana Anti-Saloon aelgue.
Zone of the reports published is
that the proposed law is identical with
the one repealed two years ago. In
a statement issued by the leader of
the vets it is set forth that there is
to be a state department for the en-
Iorcement of the law.
"This is not true. No such DEPART
ment is provided for in the measure.
Only the federal law is to be enforced
and it provides that this is to be done
through local courts and county Off
Gals who are regularly elected.
"Alfred E. Smith, democratic presi-
dental candidate, and the delegates to
the democratic national convention,
including w. H. Maloney of Butte,
head of the vets organization in Mon
tana, are pledged to an honest en-
forcement of the laws, putting into
effect the Eighteenth amendment.
Their attitude toward prohibition and
its enforcement expressed since the
convention, shows how little plat
form declaration means to them. It
appears it means no more to Maloney
than to Smith, in whose candidacy he
is SO deeply interested.
I'm previous statement we said
we were not expecting organized OPP
position to the initiative measure in
asmuch as both parties had declared
in favor of prohibition law enforce
ment. Since wet organization has
again started by Mr.. Maloney we are
shown that a platform declaration
means little to some of the delegates
TO the democratic convention that
adopted it at Houston, Tex"

IN II STATES, IT
IS LEGAL NOW TO
USE STERILIZATION

seattle.-Nearly 5000 operations
nave been performed to date in q
states under eugene sterilization
laws, Otis Il. Castle, Los Angeles at
torney, reported to the section of
criminal law of the American Bar
ASSOCIATION in session here recently.
Most of the human sterilization
laws apply only to the insane and
feeble minded, Mr.. Castle said. Men
and women are represented about
equally IN these figures. The surgical
measures employed do not alter the
sexual life Of the patient I'M any way
except to prevent having children.
California, during IS years. has
sterilized $500. Among the other
most active states are Connecticut,
Delaware, Kansas, Minnesota. Ne
braska, Oregon and Wisconsin.
Reviewing the laws Of the various
states on sterilization, Mr.. Castle
pointed out that since the decision of
the United States supreme court last
year there is no longer any question
as to the constitutionality of the o.
Grafton. He then reviewed an inten-
siye study Of the results in California,
der the direction Of E. S. Gosney,
Pasadena philanthropist, which is
shortly to be made public. This
showed no evidence that sterilization
has led to an increase in promiscuity,
made during the last three years,
but revealed on the contrary that be-
cause of the careful supervision of the
sterilized feebleminded on parole,
their delinquency has been greatly de-
creased. Physicians and social work.
ers of the state were said generally
to approve of the law.
The True Aim
Paul Popenoe, biologist of Pasa-
dena, who has been in charge of Mr..
Gosney's study, led the discussion.
Sterilization laws are not aimed
at criminals, he said. They

tut down the burden of feeble mind

'apid that A per cent of the entire
population will be in hospitals for

Tests in the Los Angeles public
schools and elsewhere were cited to
show that another A per cent of the
population is feeble minded in the
sense that it has less than three
ourths of the average amount of in

Sterilization of the insane and
