At any rate presently Mr.
McGraw and myself were talking
about Carl Hubbell, the left-hander,
who practically pitched the Giants
into the world championship last
season. Just how great pitcher is
Hubbell?
"One of the greatest left-handers
we ever had" admitted Mr.. Nc
Graw, "and We have had two or
three great ones" Getting specific,
he mentioned RUDE Marquard, Artie
Nehf, and, of course. the current
Hubbell.
If he had to make a choice of the
three whom would he choose?
That's hard to say. Marquard
had lot Of natural stuff. Nehf was
a great money pitcher, thoroughly
dependable in the pinches, and
Hubbell has something neither of
the other two had-a perfect screw
ball"
A S the discussion went along
N gathered the impression that
Marquard was Mr.. McGraw's IA
vorite. And if this is true I car
understand it. So far as :. is pos
sible for a manager to make q
pitcher Mr.. McGraw made Mar
guard. BY careful schooling, pa
thence and a full appreciation Of
the pitchers potentialitieS, Mr.. Nc
Graw changed a raw rookie into
a dazzling star. Thus the finished
product represented the masters
own handiwork.
Marquard was purchased fol
$11 900 from indianapolis, the high
est price up to then, I believe, that
was ever paid for a human chattel
For years Marquard was known az
the "S11 900 beauty" You can't buy
third base coach for that kind Of
money even now. On the Other

BY CARLOS LANE

The toll-gate bars dropped across
the come back trail in the Armory
last night and as far as old Joe
Stecher was concerned the keeper
was off in the Catskills swizzling
schnapps with the elves.
The former worlds heavyweight
wrestling champion, on his way
from retirement in quest of another
title, only once applied his fearful
leg scissors to the midriff of Jim
McNGillen, Chicago, as they pitched
on the mat an hour and half in
the main event on the Hercules
A. G. card.
The battle began so-ah, seriously
that the 1000 fans who damned the
hall for the moment sought their
diversion in popcorn, solitaire and
tick-tack-tOe.

Trouble Ahead
B, JOHN A. cLuNEx

Acceptance of Germany's invita- tion to United States athletes to participate in the 1886 Olympic games near Berlin's Black Forest was not too surprising when the American Olympic committee met last night, but the conditional an- nouncement of acceptance was described as 'the most unusual in the history of Olympic negotia tions." Reason therefor was the intimater that Jewish athletes were not to be discriminated against either before or during the games, with President Avery Brundage of the A. A. U. reporting, after two months tour of investigation through Germany that responsible German officials had promised fair dealing with the Jewish ath- letes taking part in the next Olym- piad. An interesting angle of the meeting last night was propo- sition to mince no words in mak- ing known the conditions of accept ance by the United States was VOTED DOWN by most of the 16 members present though the impH- cation is there in the carefully worded statement of acceptance of Germany's invitation. In view of happenings in Germany, past and present, l wonder if the American Olympic committee was too damn polite about it all.
