Cantillon Likes Him.
Ills formidable 1928 record
RI and the glowing reports
of his ability obtained
from newspaper sources in the
Midwest duly impressed us, but
having acquired a streak of
SkepticiSm through many years
of observing and being disap-
pointed in phenomS from the
bushes, we sought the opinion
Of old Joe Cantillon, who has
been closely connected in some
capacity or other with the
American Association for the
past 20 years and than whom
there Is no better judge of ball
players, and he gave the trinity
built lad a big boost.
'Liska was by far the best
looking young pitcher in the as
ISOLATION last year." said the
One-time manager of the Wash
ington club, now vacationing
here. "He has poiSe and nerve,
along with a lot of stuff and
determination to win that
should carry him a long way.
He is young, of course, and
therefore a bit lacking in ex-
perience, but I believe he has
better than an even chance to
make good in the big show
right from the jump"
Having received such an encourage
ing report on Liska, inquiry then
was made regarding Paul McCul-
Tough, his teammate with the Mil
lers last season, and a performer
some observers in the association
rated superior in potentialities to
Liska, despite the fact he was
charged with three more defeats
than the Is games he won.
mccullough Is q good pitcher"
CantiIIon asserted, "but he hasn't a
future like Liska's. He probably has
more stuff than LiskG. but lacks his
versatility. Mccullough, / Mould say,
is as good right now as he euer will
be. Dhite the younger telloW is

Without so much as even
a practice game having

VAellOut d. uiuCAA 90 EtCA
i a. practice game having
been staged in which he
might exhibit his repertoire,
young Adolph Liska safely may
be entered as the most prom
inent of all of the pitching
candidates for a berth as reg
ular with the Nationals this
year.
AS a matter Of fact, so rigidly
enforced Is the rule prohibiting
fingers from putting anything
on the bell" until their arms
have had sufficient loosening as
to minimize the possibility of
injury that Liska, along with
the half dozen other hurting
aspirantS who have been in
training here now for some 10
days, has attempted nothing in
the way of speed or curves. Yet
he generally is regarded as the
foremost contender for a rating
on a par with such veteran
fingers as Braxton, Hadley,
Jones and Marberry. He has
exhibited signs of that indie
Unable something known as
class" He just stands out.
One reason, of course, is the
fact that he possesses a de-
livery differing greatly from
the orthodox. He is a Sub
marine" hurler, an appellation
which first came to this re-
porter's attention in connection
with Jack Warhop, an Under
sized manipulation of base balls
who a tame considerable
prominence in the pastime
more than a decade ago as a
member of both the Athletics
and Yankees.
Although he has not let out fully
yet, 1t is unlikely his delivery will
prove "underhanded" to the degree
practiced by Carl Mays, the most re-
cent exponent of this style, who
after IA years of service, divided be-
tween the Red Sox, Yankees and
Cincinnati Reds is booked to toll
this season with the New York
Giants.
Mays, Dhen in his prime, pirtuallv
stood on his head Dhtle in the act
OF pitching, letting 90 of the ball from
a point but tho or three inches dbope

eUer, and in Uiet0 OF the fact that he
delivers hooks and fast balls with
the same motion, he has much more
OF an edge oUer the stick iUielder
than boTnlen of the usual type.
His chances for success are not
rated wholly on the freakishness Of
his delivery, however, nor yet on the
fact that last season. at the age of

v style it is hard to change his
ways later on, even when he
knows he is wrong. There Is a GER
tain subconscious control that directs
his ways, a control he cannot break.
One case in hand is that of William
Lawrence Stribling, the Georgia heavy
weight. With $50 fights or con-
tests under his belt at the age of "a, it
was somewhat natural that lot of
this had to be defensive stuff, exhibit
ton play, holding and hauling. No
human system could stand the strain
of $50 real fights at that age. AS a
result of this highly developed cautious
attitude, Stribling has blown every shot
he had at anything resembling a title.
He can murder the set-ups, but
against real opponent his caution
and conservatism kill any chance he
might carry. Under championship
conditions no one can make him
fight--no reward is big enough to
make him take a chance. He had
great opportunities against Berlen-
bach, LOughran and Sharkey. In
each case his refusal to fight or to
put on any sort Of an attack wrecked
his outlook ON q title.
Here is a boxer who has speed, youth.
strength, boxing skill and at least
first-class wallop. He has more ex-
perience than most veterans. He has
all the weapons needed to win any title,
but a gun does no damage If it isn't
fired. Stribling will take aim, but no
one can make him pull the trigger when
the target is up. Against Berlenbach
he did no fighting at all. Against
Loughran he took the lead for four
rounds, and then folded up. Against
Sharkey he was in the lead after four
rounds. and again he slipped back to
his ought-to-be's competition, but they
don't pay off on what ought to be.
After five or six years of hauling and
Juggling, wrestling and clinching, the
Georgia boxer swings back to these
same tactics when crowded.
In Other Lines.
l HAVE seen the same thing work in
other lines. 1t is a common fault
n in golf. 1t is perhaps best exempli-
fled by the golfer with the perfect
practice swing, as long as there Is
no ball to hit. He can look like a
Bobby Jones swinging at dandelion.
But there is big change when the

BY GENE SARAZEN.
THE knowledge of how to play a
spoon shot should be part of
every good golfers bag of tricks.
i 1t is a difficult club to play
properly but returns great divi-
dends once you have learned.
In playing the spoon the stance
should be the same as for driving, ex-
cept that the right foot should be bit
more advanced. 1t is important to re-
member to let the club-head do the
work.
The shot should never be forced. The
greatest tendency Is to overswing. 1t
is easier to control shots with a shorter
swing, and since it Is so often necessary
to play spoon shots to the green, con-
troll is highly essential. Lengthen the
grip on the shaft for added distance,
and always remember that the club
head has been built to loft the ball.
Bobby Jones is a notable exponent
of the spoon. He is as deadly with this
club as most players are with short
iron. He plays the shot perfectly
that is, to the right of the cup with
slight hook on the ball.
You often hear golfers say, "I'll cut
this one up to the green" meaning
that they will aim to the left of the
cup, hoping to get a slight slice. This
is dangerous, and should be attempted
only when absolutely necessary, or
when it is impossible to get to the
green any other way.
