is the underdog in the contest
against Rice. The latter, defeated
by Oklahoma, L. S. U. and /. G.
u, is rated as good as 2 to 10
win over the lads from the ROCKY
Mountain Conference.
None other than Slingin' Sammy
Baugh, star of the R e d kin S,
prophesies that Texas Tech will
defeat West Virginia, even if the
team from Morgantown, w. Va,
does have a top forward passer
in Sam Moan.
Sammy weighs in with the fol-
lowing: Alabama to win over Cali
fornia, L. S. U. to defeat Santa
Clara, Auburn to win over Michi-
gan State, Rice to defeat Colorado
Those choices look good to this
observer.
The East-West game, when it
comes to picking a winner, is a
puzzle always. It looks, from
this distant point like q win for
the West.

it on his person and has never
been so badly injured that he
could not finish a game or pass
up his regular turn on the mound.
And Lefty" has pitched many
a double-header, has performed
with "a teams believed to be q
worlds record, and his only COM
plant has been that managers
didn't give him enough work" A
champion glutton for punishment,
if nature has ever created one.
Mcintyre went from the Wash
ington sandlots to MartinSburg,
in the Blue Ridge League, on July
5, 1925, at the urgent wire of
Mickey Kelleher.
WINS DOUBLE-HEADER
That day Lefty" hurled a dou-
ble-header, winning both games,
the first is to 4, the second 3
to 2, 10 innings.
Next day Mcintyre was timber
ing up in the bull pen when the
MartinSburg pitcher got himself
in "hole," three on and no outs
and three runs behind.
Lefty" glanced over at Kelleher
and thought he was waving him to
take over the assignment. He
Sauntered toward the box before
Kelleher realized that he had mis-
understood.
Mickey tried to stop him but
Mcintyre pleaded that he could
stop EN-" Against his own better
Judgment, Kelleher let him try.
STRIKES OUT SIDE
Lefty" struck out the next
three batters and then went on
to lead Martinsburg to a 4-to-3
victory. Three wins in two days,
try to match that one.
Last year, II years later, and
81 years of age, Lefty" again
came through in an Iron Man"
stunt, winning four crucial games
in seven days for De Land, of the
Florida State League, and thereby
coping third place for them.
What brings Mcintyre to the
fore right now is the fact that
he has just signed a contract to
pitch for Orlando, the Florida
State League team of Washington
leading screen maker, Francis M.
Coffey.

DEAL OOOr L UOMEA
Now back to some highlights OF
McIntyre's colorful career. Mil
waukee, of the American Associa.
ton, enticed him away from Mar.
tinsburg in 1928. During the 1890
season he proved that the Brewers
had made no mistake when he
nosed out Eel Goofy" Gomez, 4 to
8, in II innings. Goofy was pitch
ing for St. Paul.
His next minor league venture
was with Hagerstown, in the Mid
die Atlantic circuit, for half a sea-
son, returning to Washington
sandlots to play with Buck Grier'S
powerful Northern Redbirds, and
later with Culpeper, in the Valley
League.
De Land signed him in August,
last year. while Mcintyre was tour
ing the Citrus State.
