Peterson Reveals Worth.

IN THE mention OF those all
Americas. however, the Redskins
and especially Coach Flaherty-isn't
overlooking one Nelson Peterson, who
looks more like a scat back than the
195-pound ball-toter he really is.
Peterson was just about the whole show
yesterday as Washington's new major
league professional foot ball team went
through its first scrimmage in the
presence Of 1000 fascinated fans, who
stood three deep down the sidelines.
Playing with the Reds, combina-
ton Of rockies, against the Whites
the majority of whom were in 1855
last game, Peterson was far more
consistent in breaking through the
line than his more illustrious team
mates. Although impossible to tel
how far he might have gone In view
of the fact that Flaherty blew the
stop whistle as soon as the line Of
scrimmage had been cleared, Petey
was on the gallop in the clear nearly
every time he carried the ball.
BATHS thrilled with several punts
upward of IS yards and Irwin and
Rentner both showed bull-like charges
but Peterson stole the show That is
unless you were watching another who
is making bid for regular job. Fol
Dale Prather, George Washington's
contribution to the 1887 rookie crop
was inserted in that second-strine
line at the start of the day and re-

Ken drew Feller as his slab foe in
the second game.
Chase was just name on the

sation Of the decade. 1t all
seemed 50 unfair.
But before the game was over
Master Feller was twisting the dial
on the showers under the stands and
Master Chase still was twisting curve
balls of his wrist. He hung with
Feller as the speed ball sensation hung
up a string OF goose eggs. And, when
1t became an issue, he outpitched
Feller!
He was almost as fast as Bob, Il

something. they say, that the Texas

Needs Work in Minors

CTEVE O'Neill has had his share of
troubles. What with grandstand
managers yelling for his scalp and the
club unable to get going for . sus-
tanned winning streak, the failure of
Feuer to help much is distinctly
matter no one would deliberately wish
on him.
Feller is O'Neills problem. Shipping
him off to the minors is unthinkable
to the moguls in the front office. Yet,
speaking strictly from a sensible point
OF view, season in slower company
would not hurt him any. He would
not have to concentrate so much on
smart hitters and in that way would
learn the value of control and the
other fine points a pitcher in the
majors must absorb before he can be-
come fixture.

Redskins, With Fine Backfield
Array, Won't Be Hit Seriously
Should Baugh Fail to Report

foot ball player Howell is twice the
all-round player that Baugh is and his
reputation as a passer is not 30 bad
Seems to me he did some rather fancy
singing in the Rose Bowl not 30 long
ago. Rentner, Smith and Pinckert
were good enough to be all-America
Battles would have been, with bigger
name team than West Virginia
Wesleyan. So what? SO, 1t seems
that we can take Baugh or leave him
but If Baugh leaves us, he's merely
out pretty fair salary for guy with
a brand-new college diploma"

BaVsh Hurts Himself,

As TO any doubt that Baush is
signed, Redskin officials can pro-
duce two OF the three identical con-
tracts to which he put his sigma
ture in the presence of Coach Ray
Flaherty at Dallas last March. They
have one locked in the safe Of their
Office. Joe F. Carr, president-secre-
tary of the National Foot Ball League,
has another. And Baugh, unless he
has destroyed it, has the third.
But what about that statement that
Baugh would be hurting his own cause
more than that of the Redskins if he
does break his contract? Sounds sorta
screwy in light of the fact that
Slingin' Sam is admittedly the greatest
passer in the country today. But
listen:
Are we crying? Would you-with
backs like Dixie Howell, Don Irwin,
Pug Rentner. Cliff Battles, Riley
Smith and Ernie Pinckert around?
Sure, Sammys great passer, prob
ably the best, but take that away from
him and what's left. A pretty fair

Two Pitchers Set Records.

=
IN THE course OF its sensational
climb to point where it Is ex-
pected to cop the flag in the season
that ends on Labor day the Salisbury
team has presented not one, but two
record-pitching performances for or
ganized base ball. both Of whom are
included in the quintet that come to
the Griffmen.
First it was Joe Camellas who
startled the historians Of the national
pastime by winning 20 straight games.
Then John Kohlman excelled this
stunt by recording % victories in 4
row after dropping his first game.
Lynn Rated Best Prospect.
THE athletes who are to come to
Washington along with Camellas
and Kohlman are Shortstop Treshock,
who Is hitting at $3.50 clip; Catcher
Mike Guerra, fast youngster who
received an inspection at the Orlando
Spring camp of the Senators in 1896,
and Second Baseman Jerry Lynn.
The latter is regarded by competent
critics as the cream Of the crop. His
current 1921 average includes a goodly
share of extra-base hits and he Is
credited with the fielding flnesse to
make the grade in fast company with
out additional seasoning.
President Grifith has arranged to
visit Salisbury Wednesday,, when the
fans will pay homage to the aggre-
CATION that has put the little Mary
land town on the base ball map and

TRIBE WON'T RISK
FARMING HURLER
Pilot Must Give Prodigy
Grooming He Should Get
in Minor Loop.
BY GEORGE CHADWICK.

NEW YORK, August 30.-Steve
ONeill has been seriously debating the
wisdom Of sending Bob Feller to tho
minors for season. The problem was
not completely solved by the per-
formance Of the Iowan on Wednesday,
when he let the Red Sox down with
four puny hits while tanning ls bat
ters Nor lightened by the So defeat
inflicted on him by the Senator'S yes
terday.
There still remains the risk Of the
"schoolboy wonder" throwing his arm
out and the task Of holding him down
when he gets overanxious.. For that
reason O'Neill may have to keep the
youngster under his wing and put up
with his overmastering desire to fan
every batter he faces.
Lack Of control, the bugaboo Of all
speed-ball pitchers, is Feller's chief
fault. Until he gets over that hurdle.
and it is stiff one, Feller will be lust
another pitcher instead of the sensa-
ton he was last season and in early
Spring training games.
Not Smart Pitcher.
THE Iowan has had the benefit OF
smart coaching. He has been
! schooled In the art of holding his
pitches and holding a runner TO first
base. Judging from what Feller has
shown thus far the lessons have not
been productive of good results. Run
ners get good lead and get ready to
streak to second when Bob hauls back
to get every bit of weight behind his
throw. Should the bat connect sharply
with the ball there is every likelihood
that the runner will continue on to
third, and get there safely. These
faults would have chased another less
er known to the minors long before
this.
Feller IS large and heavy for his age.
This does not mean he has properly
matured. He may fill out and should
he develop more speed he will be a
still greater problem to handle. No
telling where ball will land If a
pitcher has no control over it.
