Personally I've always favored the
hit and run style of play. But
maybe that's because I'm hitter
myself, and I like to see the other
fellows up there taking their cuts.
OF course it all goes back TO the
old proposition that no two teams
are alike and that it's up to each
team to play the sort Of game they
can play best. The Yankees would
never be a success playing the sac
rice and steal game. On She other
hand the Braves haven't punch
enough to play the slashing, smash
ing game we play.
It will be interesting to see how
Jonn's ideas work out. 1t has been
several seasons now since we have
lhad one of the old type ball clubs.
George Moriarity tried to develop
one at Detroit and I'll say for
George that he had his gang run
hing bases in great shape. But the
Tigers, like the Yankees, were more
IA slugging type of club and the
fthing didn't work out so well.
The Washington pennant winners
of 1924 and 1925 were that type OF
ball club. They had a few sluggers,
but. for the most part, they played
a conservative one-run game, with
their pitchers carrying the burden
of protecting a one-run lead.
AS the exhibition games go by
and the time comes nearer and
nearer for the opening of the sea-
son, I'm more and mora impressed
with the value of control on the
part of pitchers. In several OF the
games we've played this spring
bases on balls have cost us runs and
the ball game.
Not only does a base OLE balls up
set the pitcher. Tt upsets the whole
ball club. A fellow feels sort of
hopeless standing out there in the
field and watching a pitcher pass
man after man. If the batter hits
you've at least got a chance to get
him out. But if 'le gets down to
first without ever lifting his bat from
his shoulder you're licked to start
with.
Our kids are having that lesson
impressed on their mind every day,
and l suppose the young fellows in
other camps are getting it, ter. Only
the other morning I was st lnding
out in front of our clubhouse talk
ing with Herbie Pennock when some
OF the kid pitchers came along md
young Rhodes began asking ques-
tons.
What is it that makes the differ
cnce between winning pitcher and
q rookie?" he asked Herhie.
Herbert didn't ever hesitate.
s.Well, SIR he said, ''the real diff
ference between the rookie and the
old-timer is just one tning-cen-
troll"
But I've got cntrol,T Rhodes said.
II can put that ball over the plate
any time / want to"
Herbie laughed. That's not con-

Both boxers are in fine shape. Each
has ceased heavy training and light
exercises were the order today.
Plenty of Difference
The light heavyweight champion
probably will weigh between TIA and
IT'S pounds, as compared to the LOO
pound weight of Walker.
Right now, Lougfran is favored
by odds ranging from 8-5 to 6-5
but there is considerable Walker
money. Mickey has beaten Nc
Tigue, Berlenbach and Emanuel IN
light heavyweight bouts,
However, there seems to be a be-
lief that Loughran will fight Walker
at his own game-Speed. Mickey
heretofore, found little trouble
reaching opponents but Loughran,
a great boxer may prove to be as
fast as Walker.
The light heavyweight champion
has a good left hand and there are
those who believe he will jab Walk
err away with left and use a right
cross as his damaging punch.
May Fight Tommy
Walker may be holding back with
a surprise. He has been inclined to
the theory fight boxer and box
a fighter" and in accordance with
this he should fight Loughran. But
if he elects to change tactics and
box, the bout probably will be a
great exhibition of ring science, for
both men are clever.
It was expected that the greatest
indoor crowd in ring history viii see
the match to be held in the new
Chicago stadium which will seat
$4,000.
The Loughran fight purse is
$150,000, all of it to go to Loughran
if he loses the title. If Tommy wins
the purse will be split with Lough-
ran getting 100000 and Mickey,
$4,000.
