CASE OF ED WALSH PUZZLES EXPERTS,
AS NO PITCHER WHOSE ARM WENT BAD
FROM OVERWORK:, EVER 'CAME BACK'
Former White Sox Star May Be Given Another
.Chance by McGraw Ban Johnson Spikes Rumor
That Washington Franchise Will Be Shifted
piOEil Walsh, ono of tho greatest figures In bnsoball and onco tho star pitcher
-tf tho White Sox, Is to bo Riven another chanco to como back. According to a
yam spun in New York, tho noted "Iron man" may becomo a member of tho
Giant, and was glven,a tryout recently under tho supervision of no less n por
amas than Muggsy McGraw. In that workout Walsh showed lots of speed and
cmed to be in tho best of health, lie burned 'cm over as of yore, and nt tho
finish Muggsy casually remarked that "the old boy hnd n fow more years of baso
baJl beforo him." Now, McGraw isn't a sticker by any means, and seldom makes
a noise like that unless ho mennH It. Ho looked Walsh over carefully and evi
dently saw enough to convlnco him that all hope is not yet lost.
But it Is an established fnct in baseball that a pitcher who has seen lots of
Mrvlco nover "comes back" after his nrm falls him. There is no caso on record
whofo a twlrlcr completely recovored. Hut that doesn't seem to worry Muggsy.
It ia his. idea to send Big Ed to tho same physician who treated Gcorgo Chalmcrn
years ago, in tho hope that the M. I). will Iron out tho kink and send tho arm
way as good as now. Tho trcatmont "took" with Chalmors, who afterward went
to tho Phillies, whero ho pitched fairly good ball. It's taking a chanco, but tho
boss of tho Giants thinks It Is worth It. With Walsh in shapo tho Now York club
Would be strengthened considerably; but so would any other club, for that mattor.
Tho former Wliito Sox player was a star in his day and won many games for
Charloy Comlskey. In shapo again, ho will win quite a few for McGraw.
WALSH'S arm wont bad in 1912, after tho city series with tho Chicago
Cubs. Uo hung on a fow yearn, buf last Reason gave It up as a bad
Job and Comlskcx released him unconditionally.
Experts Unable to Name a Rig League Tivirlcr Who Recovered
rpiIB proposed "comeback" of Walsh was a topic of conversation at Shlbe Park
' yesterday. Every ono hoped that tho big fellow would mako good, but tho
to-ell wishes wcro accompanied by doubtful shakos of tho head. We approached
Harry Davis with the question, "What pitcher In tho big leagues has ovor roturned
to tho gamo and mado good after his arm went back on him?"
llnrry thought a moment and replied:
"I cannot think of a slnglo Instance; in fact, there havo been fow who even
tried it after tho old soupbono went bad. Amos Ituslo made nn attempt, but ho
failed. That's nbout all I can remember. I don't know about Walsh, but I hope ho
can got back into the gamo. It novcr has been done before, but thoro might be
an exception."
"The only pitcher who roturned after being counted out because of a bad arm,"
Bald Connie Mack, "was Long Tom Hughes. Tom lasted ono year,' howovor, and
then was. done for good. Thero aro no other pitchers that I know of who 'camo
back.' "
Bill DIneon, tho umplro, who once was a noted pitcher, said that Gcorgo
Chalmers fooled tho crltlas and pitched after his arm went bad, but his twirling
was not effective "As soon as tho snap goes from tho nrm," ho said, "it's about
time for a pitcher to quit. Tho last year Walsh was In the gamo I noticed that he
used his whole arm and shoulder when delivering tho ball and I felt that his day.
was done. I doubt if ho can pitch blg-leaguo ball again."
"Brick" Owens, when interviewed, said that not only tho pitchers with bad
arms wore put on tho shelf for keeps, but also tho infloldcrs. Ho could not recall a
Ingle Instance where a complete recovery was effected.
SO THE dopo is against Big Ed. You novcr can tell what will happen In
baseball, however, and It might bo that ho will brush asldo all precedent
and be cured by tho new specialist.
Regarding Coombs, Morion, Harper and Smoky Joe Wood
I? HAS bcon said that Jack Coombs proved that a pitcher never Is too old to
emerge from the scrap heap, and his caso 13 cited to prove that Walsh has a
Chance. Now, Copmbs was a very sick person when dropped by tho Athletics. Ho
had twisted his spine, and afterward dovelopcd a fever which put him In tho
hospital. When ho outgamed tho Grim Reaper ho proceeded to build himself up
and made good whon ho reported for a trial with Brooklyn. All of this Is well
known. But it must bo remembered that Jack's pitching arm was in no way
affected. It was Just as good ns now, and tho trouble was In his back. As soon as
ho strengthened that part of the body and donnod his leather corsct-braco ho
found no difficulty in taking his turn on tho mound. Hod his arm been nflllctcd,
however, tho chances ore that ho never would have returned to tho gamo. And
then wo havo Smoky Joo Wood. Joo injured his flinging arm, laid off lost year
and ia trying to stage a comeback in Cleveland. Havo you noticed any startling
work as yet? Ball players tell us that ho is through and novcr will bo able to last
IX he trios to tako his turn with the other pitchers.
Now wo como to Guy Morton, who pitched a ono-htt gamo against the Red
Sox recently. Guy was in bad shapo last year and his arm went flooey. He laid
pff, took caro of himself and reported this year ready for work. He seems to havo
recovered, but it la only becauso ho has not been pitching very long and he) Is a
young? man. Also, the arm might havo sprung a kink from a strain and was not
worn out by constant service Tho samo goes for Harry Harper, of Washington,
Who was hurt by a pitched ball last year. Harry, is on tho road to recovery and
the pain is almost gone.
CryoUNGSTEItS always aro troubled with sore arms," said Harry. Davis,
A "They are likely to strain it or catch cold in it. But it only takes a
short time beforo everything is O K again. Tho older men are not troubled
80 much, but when they aro it marks tho end."
Change of Franchise Talk Fed Rluff, Says Ban
fTTHAT tho excltemont and fcoto rumors springing up during tho last few days
regarding tho certain transfer of tho Washington franchise to somo other city
are entirely without foundation and are, in fact, merely a strategic move on the part
Of the defunct Federal League authorities to gain an advantago in their litigation
with organized bail is tho assuranco of none other than Ban Johnson, in an inter
View given out in Now York yesterday.
According to tho big flguro In American League affairs, tho litigation in
question is billed to come to trial In this city next Monday, and tho rumors
Which are calculated to make it appear that the league is tottering aro stage
thunder puro and simple
Mr. Johnson states that such rumors had been qulotly current for some time,
butrthat thero was not a word of truth in them, and that, In fact, when tho subject
of a possibly involved franchlso was suggested last winter it was not Washington
that was considered at all, but tho Athletics. The fine brand of ball shown by
Manager Slack's hustling and ambitious youngsters this season had, however, he
aid, entirely quieted any such alarms, and at present there was not even a shadow
upon any. franchise in the league.
OF ALL places whero on Amcrlcan-Leaguo team Is located, Washington
would doubtless bo the last to be dropped, it is declared, on account of the
flno force lent tho sport generally on account of a blg-leaguo team being
located ut the capital of tho nation. On account of Its timeliness and
unique and general Interest, tho interview is reproduced:
Baltimore Never Considered as Possibility
."11TE NEVEIt have considered Baltimore," said Johnson"for our circuit fclnce the
town forfeltod its franchise fifteen years Kgo. I cannot understand how such
an" absurd story originated in connection with tho Oriole City. Perhaps such propa
ganda was sent out to influence the coming lawsuit between tho defunct Federal
League cjub stockholders of that city and organized baseball. This suit is to come
t6 trial at Philadelphia next Monday.
"I havo heard suggestions mudo that it might bo a good idea to move the Wash
ington ball club, but the suggestion mado no impression on the American League
Club owners. In fact, I nover heard tho project seriously discussed.
"The sentiment of tho American League," Mr. Johnson continued, "Is to stick by,
Washington. There is a sentiment connected with our operations in tho capital
city of our country. It has been u tremendous force toward popularizing and Incul
cating the good name and sportsmanship of our national game.
"I can truthfully say tho American League would sooner operate' In Washing
ton at a loss than elsewhere at a profit. Washington has done a Jot for the Ameri
can League. The American Leaguo does not propose to forget Its obligations. It
would bo1 a shame, In this national crisis, to take the best class of baseball away
from the capital city."
r ...
VTUntOUGHOUT the winter, from time to time, stories have cropped out
that the American League might soon be represented in Brooklyn. It
waa whispered by those supposedly behind the scenes that tho National
League would not only nqt offer the slightest objection, but would actually
extend a hand of fellowship, provided the American League representative
In Brooklyn leased for a long term of years the Ebbets Field property from
Kbbets and the McKeevers,
'There is no doubt that such1 a transfer was considered last winter
Of, rather, offered by certain National League- interests". However, at that
time the. Athletics and not the Senators: Were the supposed whlto elephants

Necessity of Practice
THE first thing for tho ambitious pros
pective goiter to do Is to lay out a plnn
for the practice of golf. Ono must play
a certain amount each day, or three tlmoa
a. week, or eight
a month, or whatever
regular space of
tlmo he can com
mand, and then set
his mind to thinking
about the game. Also
ho must grimly fix In
his mind the thought
that golf Improve
ment Is barely vis-
into to tno piayer;
without such realiza
tion fow players can
stand the paco of
practice. In his hours
of practice the golfer
should always have
the words, "I am
going to do the best
CHICK KVAN3 I can." -men let mm
follow his system
conscientiously, whether the weather is
good or bad, and whether he hits his shots
well or not.
The following "plan of action Is my
advice to the prospective golfer who Is
willing to adopt a system; Go to your
professional and get nn Idea of the proper
way to grip a club, to stand and to swing.
That once done, imitating him exactly will
not carry you farj you must learn to put
your physical and mental Individuality Into
everything, and work to that end. Prepare
to give a certain amount of time to con
sistent and uninterrupted practice.
Avoid Fatigue
Lay In a supply of two dozen golf balls
for practice. Hers I offer a little warning
do not hit many more than a dozen shots
in succession with any one club, for noth
ing is gained by work when fatigued. I
also suggest that you swing Only when you
hit a bait
We all have manyfrlends who ran clip
dandelion heads easily and without Call
and mil the ball Itself frequently. For
that reason I consider It better not to
practice much twinging without ban,
and with a supply of two dozen balls a
cAddle deea not have to 'tome in so often.
and nrrange them in the form of a scalene
triangle, the idea being that you want
o hit a long shot, a medium shot nnd a
short shot for practice among theso llttlo
flags.
Pitchlnp; Balls Around
I. used to play these shpts with a mashie
but now I practice only the cut shots to
them. I got this Idea frem three greens
at Old Udgeuater that were so situated
that they permitted such practice, and I
conceived the Idea of pitching a half dozen
balls around these greens a certain number
of times, nnd whether I did the Job well,
or ill, I nover failed to complete tho num
ber. With this habit I took up the notion
of hitting each day a certain number of
shots with each club, and with the In
auguration of this practice the system set
forth In my dally notes was achieved
Central High School Is tho likely winner
of tho interscholastlo baseball champion
ship. TraOcs School's strong team won
from tho West Phillies yesterday, 6 to 6,
and virtually put tho Orange and Bluo
out of the running for tho Princeton cup.
The only chanco West Philadelphia has of
sharing In the award rests with Krankfor.
High.
If Frankford High School can muster
together n team strong enough to beat
CentrAl High, then thero will be a triple
tlo for tho league championship nnd prob
ably no play-off. If Frankford High suc
ceeds In accomplishing this unexpected
stunt, tho Central High nine will be losing
to a team next to last placo In tho league.
It hnq been a season of upsets so far
In tho league nnd thero Is no telling what
will happen. Conch Iludolph Falkenhngen,
of Frankford High, who thought the West
Phillies would win this year, was a much
surprised man when he heard of the score
last night. Ho said:
"So thoy beat West Philadelphia! I
didn't expect anything like that. We have
arranged to play the last leaguo game of
the season with Central High on our
grounds on Thursday afternoon.
"If we win It will mean a triple tie for
tho title between tho Central High, North
cast and West Philadelphia teams."
Seigle Won Game for Trades
Selglo won the garfio for Trades School.
Ho pitched In flno form, fanning sixteen
players nnd allowing only four hits. He
was wild In tho fourth Inning, when West
Philadelphia scored three runs. In this
Inning ho hit four batters, nnd an error
by Vreeland helped the West Phillies to
their runs
In the ninth Inning the Trades School
players rallied and hit Phy haid. Smith
singled, and Evenson did tho same when
he stepped up to the plato. Hanratty
scored Smith with a slnglo, nnd Jordan
hit to third base, sacrificing nvenson to
third and Hanratty tn second Then Selgle's
long slnglo to center field scored the win
ning runs, Captain Buck Hanratty and
Evenson crossing the plate.
