New York, Oct. l0.-Fred Lanis Fitzsimmons paid the price for be- ing the best fielding pitcher in base ball.
 Few pitchers have been able to field like Wat Freddie. He really was a fifth infielder.
 Though he never before was lit- erally knocked from the box, as he was by Marius usso's liner to his left kneecap in the seventh inning of the third world series game, Fitzsimmons has been hit every where by balls rifled back at him in the throat, on the wrist, all over.
 Because good old Fitz met with i'll fortune in a world series for the third time, much was said and writ ten about hard luck trailing him like a faithful hound.
 Nothing could be farther from the truth. Fitz has, as matter of fact, been one of the mroe fortunate baseball people.
 Fitz stepped from the American Association to the affluent New York Giants an dremained there for llyears broken into two world series with them.
 Then, when Bill Terry felt he was washed up, Fitz was swapped to a Brooklyn club that definitely was on the rise.
 Pitched in spots last season, he bagged l6 games while losing no more than two. He won six while losing only one at the age of 40

this trip, after being retarded by an arm injury.
 Fitz hasn't had any small amount of the tough luck experienced by his illustriouS teanmate, Whitlow Wyatt who was all over the map before he got anywhere in particu- lar.
 Pitching to Babe Ruth for Detroit during the tail end of 1881, with the score tied in the ninth, Whit Wyatt attempted to throw the ball so fast that his elbow snapped. The ball did not reach the plate, and the Georgian had arm trouble from that time until a clipped bone was removed in '34.
 Traded to the White Sox in '32, he had a no-hit, no-run game against the Browns with two out in the ninth. Then Ted Guile broke his bat on handle hit that went through te infield to spoil a per- feet performance.
 Sent to Kansas City by the White sox, Wyatt got another American League opportunity with Cleveland in '37. When Ben Chapman stole home on him in the eighth inning with the score tied, Steve ONeill became so mad tat he sent Wyatt to Milwaukee in the deal for Ken Keltner.
 Wyatt had to be talked into re- porting to the Brewers in '38. He had enough wanted to devote his attention to his plantation.
 After Brooklyn paid $4o,0o0 and gave three players for him, Wyatt

Automobiles will accommodate parties not having cars from sta- tion to start of hike, which will be at the Grand Junction" where the Quinnepiac Trail ends and the Mattatuck and Tunxis Trail begins. Following the later trail, across a beautiful brook and water falls, picking up an old wood road for about 8 mile, then taking 8 side trail, once a beautiful highway in days of yore. After turning right on another country road which soon vanishes into a path, about a mile of this and we again join the main trail. Soon we will suddenly come out on high overhanging ledge, with views east, north and south beyond the human eye range and of beauty beyond trying to describe. Parties having field glasses will get q clear view of three states. After 8 half hour here, will follow along the top of ledge with more outlooks and curious rock formations, and again suddenly come out on the dike of the New Britain reservoir with more marvellous views.

United Press SpOrtS EdltofJ
 New York, Oct. 10.-(UP)-Not since the days of the silent movies when Lillian Gish turned on the faucets from coast to coast has there been anybody who could weep like football coach coming up to a big game with couple of injured tackles.
 Today you can hear them moan ing on prairie and peak, seacoast and plain, north and south. If in- juries don't get 'em, then the draft does. Right now the loudest wall of all rises right here on the side- walks of New York from the lips of Nal Stevens, who is head of the Brains department for the gridiron heroes who carry the Violet of New York University.
 Trouble Looms
 The funny thing about Stevens is that he has swept aside Penn Mili- tary College and Lafayette so far this season and therefore has an undefeated team. However, that situation will be corrected come 2 D. m. tomorrow when the N. Y. U. boys start picking themselves up from the sod at Yankee Stadium and wondering why they ever put Texas A. & M. on their 194l sched- ule. And thereby hangs 8 tale.
 When the 1941 schedule was be- ing made out Stevens thoughtfully decided that tnasmuch as the heroes were going to be the ones who did the work, 1t might be good idea to consult them on who their ad- versaries should be. That is an un. usual procedure. The ordinary practice is to keep the heroes in the same category as the light brigade Theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die"
 But Stevens asked the heroes Would they like light schedule tough schedule or very, extra special tough schedule? Like the heroes they are, the heroes said they wanted the very, extra-Special tough schedule. Tomorrow they start getting 1t. You read 1t and let the heroes weep: Texas A. 6 M., Syracuse, Holy Cross, Penn State, Missouri, Tulane (ou:hD and Ford ham.
 The only question before the house when that schedule was com pleted was whether the heroes ever would be on the winning end once they got past their two opening breathers. For a while, their chances looked pretty good.
 U. S. Called
 But suddenly the United States Army began to show a lively inter- est in some of the heroes. They were the right age, they were healthy physical specimens and if they could fight, fight, fight for dear old N. Y. U., why couldn't they fight, fight, fight for Uncle Sam?
 The luck of the draft decided that Uncle Sam neded the men who were bulwarks just where Texas A. & M. hits hardest-in the middle of the line.
 One by one they went. Oscar Blomquist, guard, changed his Violet uniform for brown one. So did Bernie Jovans and Ray Rich, tackles. They, of course, were among the heroes who voted for the extra-Special tough schedule. Then 70. blow of blows wsI-Bernie Feibish, first string center, began having trouble with his grades, and he, too, will be on the sidelineS tomorrow.
 So it's sail on, sail on, Texas Ag- gies, sail right through that line, and do you think the score will be 48 to Cor GA to 0?

 Wyatt pitched in the all-staJ game this year when his arm wai sore at the elbow rather than give Bill McKechnie any reason to sus- pect he was ducking the issue A be ready for the Reds in the next series. This left his arm tired and he couldn't get anybody out for month.
 Wyatt really didn't come into hA own until this year . at the ags of 8 and with B years of profes- sional baseball behind him.
 Whitlow Wyatt had full meas ure of success coming.
