BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR.,

STUDENT of psychology might
~ well find material for research
~ in the mysterious something
which makes base ball players
who have been traded from one club
to another do their best against their
former mates. This phenomenon has
been remarkably evident in this sea-
sons games and all the more notlce-
able because of numerous recent trades:
The New York Giants, now composed
to a considerable extent Of former en-
cinnati players, dispersed one great feat
after another as they swept a three
game series with the Reds. Lacking
the perfect combination Of having an
ex-New York pitcher opposed to them,
the Giants didn't do their best in this
line. as they won the final game yes
terday. z to 4. But Hughey Cr1tZ,
known as a light hitter before he came
to New York, upheld the tradition by
hitting a single and a home run and
driving in two runs.
Glenn Wright, whom the Pittsburgh
Pirates sent to Brooklyn In exchange
for Jess Petty two seasons ago, returned
to action against his old team yesterday
and was instrumental IN giving the
Robins a to victory. Wright helped
to drive Petty from the mound with a
heavy batting attack that gave Brook
lyn a good lead, then played the Key
position In a fast and close double play
that ended the game when the Pirates
seemed sure to tie the score.
Rolly Hemsley, second victim or the
twin killing, and Jewel Ems and Max
Carey, Pittsburgh manager and coach,
put up such violent protest on UNI

Ingram.
His first name is Lloyd, but there are
few who call him that. He Is Pete 10
his teammates and local sandlot fans,
and now another fragment Of a nick
name is tackled onto him. 1t Is smoky
Pete"
His record is one Of the best on the
local Sandlots today. Last year, while
pIaying in the Departmental League on
week days and some Sunday ball now
and then, Ingram won % consecutive
games. He spent the early part OF this
season with the winston Salem club,
returning to Naval Hospital only snort
According to Manager Dakin, Ingram
recently turned down an offer to join
the Reading Keys Of the international
League.
"Pete pitched two no-hit. no-run
cannes while attending high school on
the West Coast" declared Dakin, land
only last Sunday he turned in one
hit game over the strong McRae club
of Richmond. He pitched for the Union
"I've never known Pete TO lose his
head on any kind of decision, or 10
throw up the sponge when the game
goes wrong" he added, land we owe
much of our success both In the De-
partmental and the Government Leagues
to his pitching"
ingram resembles another player who
starred on the sandlots here few years
ago. Walter Beall, former Yankee
pitcher, who also had a try-out with
the Mats, Is the man.
Beall was the posSessor Of one OF the
sharpest- breaking drops in the game
and Ingram has one that Is not far
behind. Pete, however, has much better
control.
Tots Long, veteran player-coach OF
the Northern A. c., tells q funny one
about Lefty Mcintyre.
Lefty was pitching for Martinsburg
in the Blue Ridge League a few years
ago" chirped Tots, land having been
with the club but few days, he was
still an innocent babe in the woods
Reggie Rawlings, Martinsburg man
ager, was a great joker, so when the
team left for Hanover in bus, Rawlings

FIGHT TO GET RID
OF UNJUST" TERM
Misleading and Detrimental
AppeIation Will Be Made
Object of Campaign.

I HORSESHOE pitchers who
Fl take their game seriously
land many do) are becom-
ing reSentful over the ap-
pelation "barnyard golf" So
much so, in fact, that a national
campaign is being organized to do
away with the term. AS a starter,
it will be excluded from all read
ing matter issued by the leading
horseshoe organizations.
They hold that horseshoe pitching,
as the game is played with regulation
equipment and under championship
rules, has been lifted so far above the
old barnyard sport that the term is
beltttling, unjust and detrimental to
the development of the game.
Have Similarities.
It is pointed out that the only SINH
larity between horseshoe pitching and
golf is that success in both games Is
dependent upon keen competitive spirit,
judgment, muscular control and endur-
ance.
That horseshoe pitching Is a game
that arouseS competitive spirit to the
fullest degree was demonstrated strik-
ingly in the recent congressional cham
pionShip tournament sponsored by The
Washington Star. Players and specta-
tors were making light Of the affair and
thoroughly enjoying their own comedy
until Representatives Vestal and john
son paired of for the final. Then the
spirit of contest became genuine. No
horseshoe pitchers or contestants in any
other sport ever tried more earnestly
for victory than these two disaif1ed
legislators. 1t was downright grim
Blanks Out Next Week.
Although blanks won't be issued until
next week, when they will be distributed
by playground directors of washington
and chairmen of out-of-town prelimi-
naries, entries already are coming in
for The Stars second annual metro
politan district tournament. July 9 has
been set as the dead line for entries,
with play to start on July Is.
In the meantime Washington pitch
ers are urged to make use of the play
ground courts. Not all the grounds
have been equipped with the regulation
6-foot boxes, but all have shoes and
pegs. BY the time the tournament
opens all will have boxes, too. Every
effort will be made this year to avoid
congestion that marked last Summers
preliminaries. Special instruction in
the managing of horseshoe tournaments
is being given playground directors by
Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes, superintend-
ent, and her enterprising captain, Rich
ard s. Tennyson.

better carry a blanket along as the
team would have to sleep in the bus.
Now, Rawlings had no intention of
spending the night in the bus, but Nc
Intyre, innocent of a practical joke,
legged the blanket all the way to Han
over, and, arriving there at dusk,
Rawlings set about to make hotel reser-

In the Cotton Markets
CBy Thomson & McKinnon,

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-The cot
ton market was handicapped by
poor cables this morning and opened
10 or IL points lower. Selling Or
ders from Liverpool and pressure
extended by local traders failed to
reduce opening prices more than l
or 2 points down on the day.
For some reason unknown to us
the granting of additional funds to
the farm board is considered bear
ish by some of the trade, or per-
haps it was Legges statement that
the secretary of agriculture should
have more supervision over the
trading on commodity exchanges.
Whether it is wise or not we do
not pretend to say, but certainly we
see nothing in it to bring about
lower prices. We are friendly to
cotton because it can not be pro-
duced profitably at these prices, and
would rather trust in an adjust
ment brought about by natural laws
than to opinions based upon facts
that have been known for a long
time.
