Tip on How to

The Pirates can beat the Yankees
If
That's Harry Danning. of the
New York Giants, doing the talk
ing, and his IF" reflects an inter
esting viewpoint and opinion.
AS a catcher, and smart one.
Harry, who had some World
Series experience with the Yam
KEGS himself, probably has a
keener understanding Of Pitts
burgh's pitching problems than
even Pie Traynor.
And he says Pittsburgh has a
chance to win If Big Russ BauerS
pitches all the baseball Of which
he is capable, and doing 1t not
once but three times during the
series. Apparently hasn't much
faith or confidence in the other
Pittsburgh pitchers.
Its been my observation"
Harry said, that the Yankees
are beaten, when they are, not
but pitching strength but by
pitching types.
"I've never seen a team OF
hitters quite so good as they
are. because they're that good
that they hit the top-class pitch
ing as well as the mediocre
stuff. Cliff Melton, for instance,
never had more than in the
series last fall, yet the Yankees
hit when he threw and hit it
hard.
ITO beat the Yankees a
pitcher must have a pitching
style and delivery that differs
from them routing that most
picherS perSue. In other words,
he must be a distinct type, a
pitcher whose motion, delivery
and equipment compels the hit
ters to read just their own nat
ural hitting styles.
"Of course, a fast breaking
ball is essential. What I'm trying
to point out is that the pitcher
is successful against the
Yankees only so long as he can
keep them guessing, prevent
them from knowing just what
they'll have to hit at. And the
fast-breaker is the only pitch
that'll confuse or throw them off
for long; soft stuff, no matter
how tricky, won't fool thFm
after the first look at it,"

In the absence of boats in the
Gold Cup class, a handicap race
was arranged by the Presidents

Away winging, the field crossed
the line as the gun barked and
churned the waters into a white

Calypso, the Coast Guard cutter
that served as a committee boat,
Count Rossi awaited for his signal.
1t seemed an eternity before he
was sent off.
He finally got under way and,
with the spray flying behind him.
leaped down the course. The
motor roared a symphony OF
power, mingling with the roar Of
