CADDOCK FACES
'DOC'' WILSON

Leave it to Promoter Joe
Turner to book the best matches
for his wrestling customers who
attend his weekly shows at the
Washington Auditorium every
Thursday night.
Turner has gone ahead and
booked Babe Caddock and Doc
Wilson for one of the prelim-
mary matches this coming Thurs
day night. Local fans appre-
ciate the worth of this pair and
a bristling encounter is the
prospect. Wilson was unable to
appear here against Caddock last
week because of a shoulder in
jury, but he is o. K. now and fit
to face Caddock.
The feature of the evening
will bring together Jim McMillen
and Billy Bartush. The last
named was once exceedingly
popular with local fans-and is
still quite a favorite for that
matter. However, he has been
off form of late due to removal
of his tonSils. With these pesky
throat stones out of the way, he
is expected to flash all his old
time form.

Every youngster who ever talks to me
about pitching wants to know how [ throw
my fast ball. Maybe this picture, taken
before a world series game, will tell the
story. 1t shows, better than | can tell, the
way big league pitcher covers up his
pitch until the moment the ball is delivered.
You will notice that you can't tell, even
when the ball is delivered, whether it is to
be a curve or fast one.
The whole thing depends on little snap
Of the wrist at the minute the ball is let
go. For my fast ball grip the ball hard
just as you see in the picture, and then let
it slide off the ends of my fingers. For
curve ball l use exactly the same grip and
the same motion, but just as the ball leaves
my hand l snap my wrist downward and
instead of the ball going off the ends Of
my fingers it slides off the side, thereby
getting the rotating motion that is needed
for curve ball The quick snap of the
wrist as the ball is delivered is what gives
the ball the sharp, swapping break that
makes it curve when it comes up to the
plate. Naturally the more wrist snap |
can get into the motion the quicker the
break on the curve and the more puzzling

CHICAGO, April 2O.-Heres
one for the books.
During the Cubs-Cards' game
yesterday. Umpire Moran made
a ruling which left the scorers
and fans in a quandary and
Gabby Street, Cardinal manager,
in a protesting mood.
With Orsatti on first, Bottom
ley, Cardinal first sacker, drove
the ball to the edge of the over
flow crowd to Stephenson in
left field. Stephenson muffed the
ball and it went into the crowd.
Umpire Moran ruled that
someone in the crowd had
ruined Stephenson'S morale by
shouting raucously. He called
BOttOmley out and further
ruled that Orsatti could go to
third on the same interference
theory.
BY virtue of the ruling the
scorers were forced to give STEP
henson an error. deciding in ef-
feet that Stephenson caught the
ball and threw it into the crowd
instead of to the infield.
Gabby Street said he will file
a protest over Moran's ruling.
