It required a typical Tech

to relieve the tension when
Elmer Hardell's well-coached
material yesterday passed its
way to victory over a power
full Central eleven, 1876.
For three quarters the Centralites
had kept their supporters on edge
and Ty Rauber's gang was riding
on a 6.to-0 lead when entering the
last period.

half.
Larry Pinckney, the former Con
zaga threat, was the hero over this
stretch with his magnificent ball
carrying performance in the second
period providing one OF the OUT
standing features Of the day.
Given his chance to shine at TINS
point, Pinckney made the most or
it, hammering and twisting his
wav through Techs stubborn de-
fense into striking distance of the
goal. Then 1t was that he circled
right end for a touchdown and
barely fell short on his rush for
the point.
The Gray stepped out with added
vigor in the third section and un-
corked an aerial offense which
threatened CentraPs goal before a
pass was intercepted by a Central
man in the shadow Of his own
uprights.
This was only postponing the
inevitable, however, since Tech

You learn something from the
first man you face in your first
big league game, and you're still
learning new things from the last
man to face you when your big
league career Is finished.
The greatest hitter l ever faced,
think, was Ty Cobb. Cobb had
everything. He was the one man
faced In all my big league career
who would absolutely hit the way
you pitched. Maybe l better ex-
plain that. A man who hits the way
you pitch Is hitter who stands
flat-footed until the pitcher winds
up, then shifts his feet to the sort
OF pitch that's coming. Cobb was
master at 1t. u
Fellows like Eddie Collins and
Joe Jackson and Earl Combs are
other hitters of that type-but
none OF them ever were as per-
feet at it as Cobb.
Hitters like Ruth and Gehrig and
some of our other sluggers are what
we in the big leagues call Swing
hitters" that take the same sort OF
full swing on every pitch. Natur-
ally they are much easier to fool
than the other type-but they hit
ball with more power and drive
when they do hit it.
AS l said bfore, Cobb was the
greatest hitter / ever faced-and, !
think, the greatest hitter the big
leagues ever saw.
Yet, strange as 1t may seem. Cobb
never bothered me as much as other
and weaker hitters that l faced. My
personal Nemisis was Elmer Smith,
the old Cleveland outfielder. Other
pitchers could handle Elmer without
any great trouble-but to me he was
always poison.

reputation of being an alert and
