He's "Vinegar Bill" Essick
and he helped make the
Yankees world champions
Of baseball. Here's how!

w into world champions in five of the
w last six baseball seasons?

wv into world champions in five of the
w last six baseball seasons?
Not President Ed Barrow, who has always
handled the financial side of the Yanks. =.
Not Manager Joe Mccarthy. who gave the
orders as the Yanks slugged their way along.
NO the men who really built these
great Yankee teams, you seldom hear of!
So meet Vinegar Bill" Essick, ace of the
sleuths who track down the stars who win
the pennants.
The Yankees have other scouts, of course,
like Joe Devine, Johnny Nee and Gene
Mccain - and Paul Krichell. who disoov-
cred Lou Gehrig.
But Essick unearthed the two brightest
stars the Yankees own today - Joltin' Joe
DiMaggio, outfelder de luxe, and Jumpin'
Joe Gordon, king of second basemen. And
he's the man who dug up some of this years
star rockies, such as Pitcher Norman
Branch, who is expected to bolster the cham
pions' mound staff in case veterans like
Lefty Gomez (another Essick discovery
and Red Ruffing start to fade.
Bill Essick's story is doubly important as
the first wartime baseball season since 1918
gets under way next Tuesday. This year,
more than ever before, the future of big
league baseball itself rests on the shoulders
of the talent sleuths
President Roosevelt has publicly recog-
nized the value of professional baseball and
has expressed the wish that it be continued
through the war But hundreds of players
have gone into the service - and more are

home run that sank the Dodgers in the
first game of the world series.
Friends Tipped Him OF
0Ur how does scout get on the trail
of prospect like Gordon?
Friends" says Essick with wink. "A
fellow named Art Gleason tipped me off
that this kid had great pair of hands,
Essick put Gordon on a semi-pro team
and got him a tryout. Joe's next move was
to the Yankee farm at Oakland, Cal. Then
one day Joe Mccarthy. Yankee manager,
put through hurry call to Essick for a
second baseman. Tony Lazzeri was slipping.
Il have your man," said Vinegar Bill,
remembering those Gordon meathooks.
Joe has been Yankee kingpin for four
seasons now.
But Vinegar Bill is more than just a
smooth oonversationalist. He's an expert
piano player, too. Bill called on his musical
talents the night he met the parents of
Pitcher Johnny Lindell.
A few selections from Brahms convinced
the Lindells that baseball couldn't be 50
rowdy after all. He won the parents - and
Lindell. And Johnny won % and lost four
for Newark last year. which makes him a
Yank hopeful as this new season starts.
Essick learned the piano - and some
thing about pitching - at Knox College,
in Illinois, in 1903. He dropped the piano
in 1904 and pitched his way up to the Big
Leagues. He was with Cincinnati for years,
then drifted back to the minors. He was
managing Vernon in the Pacific Coast league
when the Yankees signed him as scout.
Essick Knew Somsthin0
! HEY have never regretted it. He has a
sort of sixth sense when it comes to assaying
baseball talent. Essick says boy may learn
to hit, but he can never learn to run fast,
or throw ball hard. Hence those are the
first gifts Bill looks for. Yet Joe DiMaggio
could hardly run at all when Essick went
after him. Joe had developed bad knee.
and the other scouts who formerly had bid
up to 100000 had turned Joe down.
But Essick thought he knew something
He bought DiMaggio oonditionally for
$25, 900, and took him to doctor. The doc
tor found some muscle adhesions in Joe's
knee, and fixed them for SIS. Scout Essick
had saved the Yankees SIS, 600.
Eagerness to drive a hard bargain almost
cost Essick one of his biggest prizes. He
didn't want to pay San Francisco $4,000
for young left-handed pitcher back in
1929, although he liked the kids fast ball.
While Vinegar Bill haggled. John McGraw
of the Giants phoned from New York and
bought three-day option on the southpaw.
But McGraw let the option expire, and
Essick got Vernon Lefty" Gomez. The
Goof' is still winning after more than a
decade of service, and may raise his total
of Yankee victories to 200 this year.
Where would the Yankees be today with
out DiMaggio? Or without Gomez and Cor
don. Where would they be without Essick?
