NOT IRON PITCHER,
.HUBBELL ASSERTS.
Lacks Speed of '33 Series,
Needs Sunshine, but Has
Improved Curve.
BY SCOTTY RESTON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


n YEW YORK, September 90
M Carl Hubbell said today he is
" not the pitcher now he was in
1 1888.
On the eve of another world series,
cllmaxing the most successful season
Of his career. he spoke longingly Of
time when weather made no differ
ence to his pitching.
Three years ago I wouldn't be
wondering what kind Of weather we'll
have for the opener. Now like the
sunshine" he said.
This was the Hubbell who won 26
games and lost only this season,
who carried and inspired a crippled
Giant team through one of the great
est late season drives in recent major
league history. Still he said:
They're all wrong about me being
faster. I had more speed in 1888 and
it didn't take long to get them going
about where I wanted them. Now
when it's cold. feel the difference"
Now Has Good Curve.
HUBBELL said he has changed his
= style since he pitched in the 1898
series. Then he relied, he said. almost
entirely on his "screwball,' a fade
away" reminiscent Of the great Christy
Mathewson's favorite pitch. which
Hubbell can make drop and curve one
way to left handlers and another to
the righthand swingers.
But you can't get b. in this league
on any one pitch" Hubbell continued.
They learned to hit the 'screwball'
by standing up in front of the plate
and hitting it before it broke. Then I
tried to throw them fast ones inside.
What I really needed was a curve, but
I didn't have one"
For the past two years Hubbell has
been working on his curve. Il was in
the bull pen quite a lot in 1884 and
1885, and I worked on that curve every
chance I got. Now think I've got a
better curve than ever had. That's
why had good year"
LIKES 10 NUTk DclOTS tTUNu
uUBBELL. 80 now. was playing for
u = the Cushing. Okla. team in q
class ID" league in 1923. when the
Giants and Yanks met last in the
world series.
I'll say one thing for these years
They help your confidence. I love to
go out there before a crowd like well
have in the opener and start getting
ready to pitch. I guess good ball
players like a good race horse. In a
race like the series, you kindo outdo
yourself"
Hubbell said he did not think he
could pitch his bes. without three
days rest He scotched the suggestions
of some critics that he go to the
mound every other day against the
Yankees.
II might get away with it, but ]
doubt It," he said.

Giants Favored in Opener.

WHETHER Manager Joe Mccarthy
w decides to send Vernon Nefty)
Gomez against Hubbell in the opener
or shifts to his right-handed ace,
Charles Rufus (Red) Rufing, the
Giants will be favorites to make a
victorious start on their own stamp
ing grounds.
The pressure will be on Hubbell,
but the slender Oklahoma master of
major league base balls most baffling
delivery has borne up pretty well un-
der the burden thus far. There Is less
reason to figure that Hubbell will crack
under the strain than there is to sup
pose that the Yankees, a compare
lively youthful outfit, will be press
ing" from their anxiety to justify the
series odds in their favor.
This writer favors the chances Of
the National League champions for
the following reasons: % That Hal
Schumacher and Freddy Fitzsimmons,
with their "downers," will combine
with the peerless Hubbell to give the
Giants more consistently effective
hurting than any three men the Yam
KEGS can send to the box; (2) that the
Yankee advantage of virtually 20
points in team batting, over the sea-
son, is misleading because it was COM
piled at the expense Of softer" pitch

season performances, individually or
collectively, cannot arbitrarily be tax
en- at their face value. Any club with
q pitcher of Hubbell's caliber enters a
world series with psychological edge.
But there's no guarantee attached.
Even the great Christy Mathewson
in his prime, and with pretty fair
support, could not turn the scales in
favor of the Giants in three consecu-
tive years, 1911, 1912, 1918.
The Yankees have great reputa-

N yEW YUM, OepleHlUtT SS'-
N Two base ball clubs that were
VI picked to finish third this year
in their respective pennant
races will start the big-money battle
tomorrow in the first all-New York
series since Babe Ruth and John
McGraw ended a spectacular three
year rivalry in 1928.
On their way back to the top
this year, by sharply contrasting but
nevertheless effective methods, the
Yankees and Giants not only upset
several barrels of base ball dope
but hung up a flock of records.
With Pop Knickerbocker all worked
up to high pitch of excitement over
impending events on opposite banks
Of the Harlem River and crowds
pouring in from all sides, 1t is
likely there will be fresh attack
on world series marks. The teams
hold their rival workouts today on
each others fields.

smashing all previous records for
the size Of the players pool as we'll
as for total attendance and gate re-
ceipts.
All reserved seats at both the

have been sold. This means that more
than half the capacity Of each park
already has been disposed of at top

$3.50 for box seats for six games.

The stadium can accommodate

Six-Game Series Seen.
THE general expectation is that 1t
will take six games to reach a
decision, with Yankee power arrayed
against a Giant defense that fea-
lures the great Carl Hubbel. A full
seven-game battle would send the
gate" to $1,500,000. as compared with
the record of $1,207, 1854, set 10 years
ago in seven games by the Yankees
and Cardinals.
The players. as usual, share only
In the first four games, so that they
will have no incentive whatever to
prolong the proceedings for the bene-
At of the club owners. If the parks
are jammed, as expected, the COM
batants may split close to $3.50, 900.
The highest previous player pool was
e419,000 for the 1928 series between
the Cardinals and Yankees.
The Yankees that year were in the
middle of a streak that now stands
at IL consecutive world series tri-
umphs. They will be bidding for their
thirteenth in a row against the screw
ball pitching of Hubbell, who closed
the National League season with
an unbroken string of 16 straight
triumphs.
The law of base ball averages fig
ures to be operating against both
streaks tomorrow, but the betting is
that the Yankee string Is more likely
to be broken than Hubbell's.

ELKTON LOSES BRIDGE LIGHT.
ING CASE

While the mayor and Board of
Town Commissioners were defeated
in their efforts to prevent the State
Roads Commission from discontinue
ing maintenance of the lighting of
the two overhead bridges over rail-
road tracks in Elkton, they expect to
carry the fight to the Court of APP
peals.
Associate Judge J. Owen Knots
in the Circuit Court on Wednesday,
dissolved the temporary injunction
granted early in the spring to the
town authorities when the Roads
Commission served notice that 1t
would maintain the lights no longer.
The mandamus proceedings involve
the lighting of the viaducts over the
Pennsylvania tracks at both North
and Bridge streets. They were in
stituted on the grounds that the
Roads Commission in closing certain
streets to erect the two bridges had
agreed to maintain necessary light
ing.
