George Simpson cell psed was
the wide prediction made by all
knowing golf observers here today.
There are several factors to sup
port this contention, but the chief
circumstance will be the weather.
The outlook is for clear, crisp
weather, which will be a welcome
relief over the Arctic conditions
that marred the three previous
tournaments.
They say golf pro can play in
almost any sort of weather, but
who can show his best when cold
blasts freeze hands and limbs and
necessitate heavy wraps to escape
the clutches of pneumonia?
Cold and windy weather pre-
vailed in mid-November, the
period in which the last three
tournaments were held, but this
condition probably will be avoided
in the 1884 tourney.
All the elite of golfdom, saw.
ing Gene Sarazen, DIN Dutra,
Joe Kirkwood, Leo Diegel and pos
sibly KY Laffoon. will be on hand,
all seeking part of the $4,000
purse.

He's the Man O'War of Z
This Seasons Pitchers
If He Stops Right NOIU.

DETROIT, Oct. 4.-They
looked Man O'War in the eye
and did not care for what they
saw.
I am speaking of the Detroit
Tigers, champions of the Amer
lean League, who took one peek
ut the presnt day Man O'War
Of baseball pitchers-Jerome
Herman Dean-and found him
pretty much as advertised.
True Jerome Herman was far
from his best in that all i'm
portant first game of a short
series. But after the Tigers
had kittenishly rolled it into his
big mitt right under the start
er'S gun, he was good enough to
protect the deed of gifts.
He had pitched three times
In six days. He had turned in
two successive pay game shut
outs on Friday and Sunday last.
He had been pestered and paved
over and badgered by the hero
worshippers and curios of two
cities through two long and try
ing days.
He was not only pitching his
first world series game, he was
seeing his first one. He had
been photographed, interviewed,
hand-shaken, cheered, kidded,
razzed; and he is, in the final
analysis, only a 23-year-old
farmer boy from Holdenville,
Okla.
Questions Cochrane's Wisdom
Under the circumstances
then, it was no more than COM
mon justice that fate should
have smiled little smile at him
at the start. To begin with,
Cochrane himself played into
Dizzy'S hands. He sent the ven
cradle Alvin (GeneraD Crowder
out to pitch against him, and
the Cards had rousing salute
waiting for the Gen. 1t is true
that Alvin could have been far
worse, and equally true that he
deserved far better than he got
from his supporting cast.
But it begins to be just "a
leetle" questionable if Crowder
is a world series pitcher. Or at
any rate, a first-game world
series pitcher. Two years run
ming now I have seen National
League teams fall on him with

was a long-lost brother from
Oshkosh, Wis.
They tell me that the Gen.
eral is tattooed from his sec.
ond chin to his insteps with
some of the most exciting mod
ern art this side of the Quays
of Paris. They say every time
he takes a shower the sinking
of the Maine" takes place all
over again and that when his
pitching days are over all he
needs do is hire himself a hall
and call it a picture gallery.
I have never seen General
Crowder in his shower. But, If
keep going to these World
Series, will, if only on account
of the law of averages. That
seems to be where he winds up
every time he starts series
game.
What He Sees
All I know, as Mr.. Will
Rogers doesn't say, is what I
see on the field, and there I
have seen the general get three
new tatooing jobs done in a
row. Maybe it would be a good
idea for some American League
pilot to let the general die in
bed some fall.
But getting back to our man,
Dean, he is beyond doubt I
think the most entertaining
character baseball has seen
since the mighty Ruth came
tramping up the road to fame.
Which reminds me that he
called Ruth on the telephone
yesterday morning and here is
a rough transcript of their con-
versation:
Hello, is this Mr.. RUTH"
eyes this is Babe"
"Say, Mr.. Ruth, this is Dizzy
Dean. just called up to say
hello and to thank you for
putting me on your all-America
team this year. sure was
proud of that and / don't know
how to thank you enough, Mr..
Ruth"
cav, that's all right, kid,
you deserved to be there.
What the hell, you deserved to
be on there, kid"
CALLS BABE MISTER"
"WeI, thank you. just
wanted to say hello, MIR. Ruth
and thank you"
That's all right, kid, I'll be
seeing you at the ball game"
"YOu mean you'll come in the
clubhouse, gee"
"No, 1 won't be in the club
house, but I'll see you on the
field"
"ThatII be swell, Mr.. Ruth,
but l wish you'd come in the
club house if you get
chance.
"Ill be seeing you, any how,
kid, and though I'm still an
American Lacquer, good luck"
Gee, Mr.. Ruth, that's swell.
I'll be seeing you out there"
Dizzy Modest Kid
I print this conversation ap-
proximately as Babe related it
to me later and much sur
prised he was at Dizzy's call
ing him Mr.. Ruth, to try and
give you a little clearer idea
of what Jerome Herman really
is like. So many people have
him wrong.
His boastfulness is not the
annoying sort at all. He is
rather inclined to be modest
and shy and polite. But he
does talk freely and if he
thinks he can win 80 games a
season, or that he and Paul
together can win As, or that
he could pitch four straight
games in this series if he had
towel, then, he Just pops
up and says so.
He has what it takes to
make what he says good, and
as I said in the beginning,
I'm afraid the Tigers are go
ing to find the road to Jerome
long and hard.
