Howell, one of the football

Howell was given a new one

his team had ended an unimpres-

Howell coached his teams to 13

tainly, in this list such names as
AL Simmons and Chief Bender
shouldn't be overlooked.
Simmons lifetime big-league
average, over a long period, was
around .334-among the highest
in the game. Al had years at
1892, 800 and .384, up in Ty
Cobb's figures, and he led the
American League batters in 1890
and 1881.
Simmons was the greatest out
fielder Connie Mack ever had on
his nine pennant-winning teams.
He was a great ball player. with
a clean personal record.
In the case of Bender. the
Chippewa Chief. he was one Of
the great pitchers of the game.
Many years ago, before Lefty
Grove came along. Connie Mack
told me he would rather have
Bender pitch a million-dollar
game than any pitcher he had
ever had. The Chief was great
competitor, I knew him as far
back as 1905, the year he shut
out the Giants in World Series
game.
Bill Diekey Also Belongs.
Simmons and Bender certainly
belong. So does Bill Dickey, one
of the games greatest catchers,
who often is coupled with Mickey
Cochrane at the top. And what
about Hank Greenberg? Or Dizzy
Dean?
Among those still playing who
will have to be taken in later are
Joe Di Maggie, Stan Musial and
Ted Williams. There may be others.
but these three are certain to get
strong support.
However, Bob Quinn, now mas
ter of the Hall. is worried over
many others he believes should be
considered before time runs out.
There is definite movement
under way to place the name Of
the late DR.. Robert F. Hyland of
St. Louis on the honorable men,

part of a fine career to ball play

why is it." a fan asks, that
we had better hitting with the old
and deader ball than we have now
with the lively or rabbit ball?
Check back on this. You'll find
that before the livelier ball came
In, the game had a long list of
400 hitterS. I mean Cobb, Sisler,
Hornsby. Jackson, Lejoie. Della
hanty, etc. The last two 400 hit
tiers I recall were Bill Terry and
Ted Williams. We haven't had a
400 hitter or even a 1870 hitter
in years."
The answer to this is fairly
simple. When Babe Ruth began
to pour his home runs over the
outlying fences and walls, prac-
tically every young hitter shifted
his grip to the end of the bat
and took a full cut.
Cobb and most other 400 hit
ters had controlled swings. Cobb's
hands were we'll apart. He was
able to keep his bat on the ball.
Ruth struck out oftener than any
other noted hitter.
"The Babe has changed the
game" Cobb said years ago.
Baseball now is more a game
of power than of skill. There
was no use swinging full against
the ball we had. But at least
you could place your hits"
More than a few observers
used to say that Ruth could have
passed 400 by shortening his
swing, bringing it under better
control. But this is something

Except on rare occasions, he took

Williams, who by hitting to all
