The ordinary break of the ball is downward and to the side, but it isn't always possible to say just which way the pitch is going to break. It usually acts like curve down and away from right-handed hitter-but frequently it breaks into a right-handed batter like screw ball.

I have found when pitching against the wind the ball seems to be most effective, because it seems to "flutter." On still days, and when the wind is blowing toward the hitter, the ball floats, rather than breaks, and acts as a change of pace.

Three-Woy Fight Looms
In National League

In the National League you can
label the Reds, Dodgers and Cardi-
nails &C three of kind. April form
doesn't presage even a three-game
difference as we peer into Septem-
ber's final count.
The Reds will need the same 1910
brand of pitching desperately. In
other respects they are just a pretty
good ball club - nothing to rave
about.
The Dodgers are much better
ball club than they were last season,
when they trailed the Reds by
nearly 10 games. Kirby Higbe will
make a big difference. So will the
new Joe Medwick, who should win
many a game before the race is
over. You can put the Dodgers as
close to the Reds as Cleveland is
to New York's Yankees-another
head-and-head finish.
The Cardinals can upset them
both. They have youth and speed
and now they have the will to win.
The Cubs should make the first
division, but no better than fourth
place.

No Decisive Choice
In American Race

In the American League scramble,
the form sheet leaves the Yankees
and Indians neck and neck. There
is no decisive choice.
The main Indian edge belongs to
Bob Feller. This gives Cleveland
the jump in pitching, one of the
vital ingredients.
The main Yankee edge Is all
around value, extensively and de-
fensively, with the pitching still un-
certain.
The Yankees look to be the
sounder club. The Indians could
use more power than they seem to
have.
Just back of this pair there Is
little choice between Boston and
Detroit. Both have more run
making ability than either New
York or Cleveland. But both have
uncertain infields, and Boston also
has erratic pitching. In addition,
Joe Cronin's Red Sox are spotty
on defense. Their bats will have to
keep up a noisy tattoo if they hope
to have a chance.
The Browns also can give the
White Sox a carload Of trouble.
