No more powerful illustration
of the truism that pitching is
80 per cent of ball teams
strength was ever offered. The
Athletics had the pitchers. Two
of them. Two Of the best and
one whose series showing will
rank alongside that of Matty
and Coombs and Nehf; a greater
pitcher than even his most rabid
rooter had believed him-George
Earnshaw.
I met Cy Rigler, the veteran
umpire who worked behind the
plate in yesterdays game, in the
lobby Of his hotel last night, and
he was practically throwing his
hat in the air over big George.
"Wasn't he the greatest thing
you ever looked at?" beloved
Cy. 81 had heard a lot about
him. That he had this and that.
Say, he's got everything and
he doesn't need it. All he
needed and all he used today
was that fast one and that
curve. And when a pitcher
bends a curve across there
four times running with the
count three and two you just
know he has plenty Of heart to
go with his arm. That's what
Earnshaw was doing today.
HE can pitch a long time
yet with that curve and high
hard one alone. He Is one Of
the greatest pitchers / ever
looked at, and You know I've
been peering over the shoulders
of those catchers for a long
time. The ball game was over
in the first inning. That big
raw-bOned guy simply over
powered 'em." .
Which is complete firSt-hand
account of the game that decided
the championship. 1t was all
Earnshaw. After the AS had got
him those two runs to work on
the rest didn't matter.
Not only is Earnshaw a great
pitcher, he is an intelligent and
fine fellow with it. A graduate

william, well named the Fargo

knockout over Berg when they
meet in Madison Square Garden
tomorrow night.
Billy thinks that any such
triumph over Berg would win
him enough recognition to
get the match with McLarnin.
AS he sat on a rubbing table
today he had this to say about
the heft of his punch as com
pared with McLarnin'S. He said
"Jimmy is a nice hitter. He's
q nice hitter, indeed, but I've
got a much better knockout
record than McLarnin. Why, in
Jimmy'S career he has knocked
out but q dozen fellows.
'In the last eight months I've
had 13 fights, and knocked
out 10 Of my opponents. In all,
I've knocked out 81 men, and
Jimmy never will tie that
record.
Perhaps the caliber of the
men I've flattened in my career
have not come UP to the sort
that Jimmy has flattened.

him. 1 know / can take him,

There vas talk of matching
Jimmy with Suarez, but If that

World Series
SideligElts
By FORD C. FRICK

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 9.-Now
bring on these bloomin' touch
downs.
George Earnshaw broke the
union rules and the Cardinal
hearts at one and the same time.
Every time you looked up during
this series George was pitching.
He must be working on a time
and a half for overtime" basis.
Over in st. Louis they used
bank presidents and high finan-
ciers for ushers, in Philadelphia
they used girls. Rubber walls
and stretchable benches would
have been a lot better in both
places.
Jim BottOmley went through
the series with one hit-and
that was an accident. Which
makes it look as though Jim
would be planting his dogs in
other pastures before another
season rolls around.
The two heroes were George
Earnshaw for the Athletics and
Charley Colbert for the Cardi-
mails. All others were just scenery
or maybe we should say green
cry" so far as the Cards were
concerned. But even though the
AS did win the series, Sam Brea-
don turned out the best band.
The leading jockey OF the series
was Burleigh Grimes. Burleigh
had a word for everything, even
though he couldn't always get
his curve ball where he wanted
it. If talking was base hits, they
wouldn't have Burleigh out yet.
Mickey Cochrane says the chief
trouble with Burleigh was that
Burleigh was jealous.
'He never did care for me
after he found out 1 could wig
gle my ears" Mickey said.
"GeOrXe EarnShaw is the best
pitcher we ever looked at"
frankie Frisch remarked to
Babe Ruth after the game.
"Yeah," retOrted the Babe
somewhat dryIy, "we found that
out some time ago."
The crowd was dead on its
feet after the fifth inning, but
the Cardinals beat .'em to it.
Gabby's boys were walking on
their heels from the time the first
pitch was, made. They were still
just a bit "goofy" when they
pulled out Of town last night.
Graham McNamee hasn't got
that foul ball yet. But he has
nothing on the Cardinals.
They couldn't foul one, either.
Anyhow it was a great series
while it lasted. But you can't
tell that to John Heydler.

D. Oqe Steepechase Scheduled Oco 20
NOMINATE GO
HORSES FOR
EVENT

LAUREL, Md, oct.9. - The
Governor ogle steeplechase
handicap Of $4,000 added,
which will be run here october 90,
has attracted go nominations.
The race takes its name from
one Of the colonial executives
Of Maryland and it is appropriate
that Andrew J. Cummings, presi'
dent Of the host organization,
should see tina. such a historical
name be kept fresh in the
memory Of racegoers.
Governor Ogle was one OF
the earliest lovers Of the
thoroughly ID to import horse
flesh from Europe for race
purposes and IL was he, so
history relates, that intro
duced match races at An.
napoIis, Nd, in about the
middle Of the Eighteenth Gen.
.tury.
Quoting from "Blooded Horses
of Colonial Days." by Francis
Barnum Culver, Governor Ogie
was an early patron OF the turI
and it was upon the occasion OF
his return to Maryland in 1747
that he brought over the cele-
.brated Spark, presented him to
Lord Baltimore, to whom the
horse had come as a gift from
Frederick, Prince of Wales, and
the reviver of the royal stud in
England. Governor Ogle likewise
imported the famous English
broodmare, Queen Mat. Thus the
fashion for English thoroughbred
horses was introduced into Mary
land under royal auspices.
The first home Of the
thoroughbred in Maryland
still stands and it was built
by Governor Ogle. This is
Belair, now owned by Will
liam Woodward, a member Of
the Jockey Club, and q New
Yorker Of Maryland ancestry,
who is also the proud owner
of Gallant Fox. this seasons
three-year-Old champion.
This property was purchased
for Governor Ogle by his father
in-laW while the former was liv-
ing in England.
Belair Stud, which has sent a
number of great. horses to the
post within the last several years,
is located in Prince Georges coun-
ty, and is within a stones throw of
the Bowie race track. So it is
befitting that the name of one
of the outstanding fixtures on
the Laurel Park turf program is
so closely identified with racing
in Maryland.

to persuade him to play pro-
fessional ball at all.
Big George was recommended
to Dunn by one of the Ogden
brothers from Swarthmore and
finally went to Baltimore and
signed a contract. Then he de-
cided his future was in the coal
and coke (not the kind you Sniff
business, and he gave Dunn and
his Baltimore Orioles a wide
berth for two full seasons.
All the time canny old Jack,
who had fallen in love with
Earnshaw's pitching style and
obvious strength at first
sight, kept offering George
more money. After two years
George found the coal bust
ness not what it was cracked
up to be and decided to give
the diamond racket q whirl.
He went to Baltimore, where
Dunn let him cool his heels on
the bench until near the close OF
the season. He won his first
game and six more in succession
after it, and Dunn, who developed
Ruth, Grove and many other
super-stars, knew he had another
find to peddle to the majors.
Earnshaw was a riot in the
little world series that fall. Just
as he has been a riot in the pig
world series this year. He is
one of the few star pitchers who
doesn't throw q ghost ball. 1
mean he refuses to sign his name
to newspaper stories written by
somebody else and telling;
'sHow fed the Cardinals
smoke and made their ears
burn"
Il fell for that stuff a year
ago." he says, "and that once
was enough. 1t was awful. /
used to blush every time
picked up the paper. / can't
write much, but / did hate to
see my name over such bunk
as. that. Never again for me-"
It is only fair to note in pass;
ing that Earnshaw can afford to
be independent in this respect.
He is well fixed and could even
quit pitching il 1t boxed him.
