After playing twenty-ono jears In blg'-lcaguo sooietr and going back

i tho stellar Item in tho sedttou'a comeback tipwb and the most unlnuo

rtho peppery Trojan has been signed up by one of tho greatest

rpIIE best comeback tale of the season came soino time ago out of an
--n!d soldiers' homo In St Louis Old Jack I'oncll, tho pitcher who 1m
Imost as old as Cy Young, who Is lift) -two, got a lot of publicltj on
Account of his reported ambition to rcshlno as a member of tho St
Louis Browns. The old-timer went to training camp unl still is there,
fcut It now Is said that his effort was for ndxcrtlsing chlcn, the idea
belag to boost his "wet" goods emporium with St I.00I0 fans
Tho bona-fdc list Includes. In addition to thofo mentioned, Dig l.'d
"Walsh, Big Bill James. Bube 01ding, Jimmy Archer. Smoky Joo Wood,
Wild BUI D'onovan, Lefty Lclflcld, Hay Demmltt und Bob Harmon, nnd
there aro others, Including Grovcr Lowdermllk, who, although not an old
timer, has been bobbing up and down for sccrul seasons, awaiting miiiic
bedy who -could tamo him.
Big Ed Walsh has caught on again with his old manager, Tickler
Jones, for whom ho pulled through tomo notable champ'onshlpa as Irnn
man for the hltlcss White So.. Thi move may hao been gratitude, for
iJw great hurlcr had been turned down by big league marngcrs gonerall.
It ta said that ho will get a real tryout In addition to working as pitching
oeich.
As Is well known, Bubo Oldrlng returns fiom the family farm lo
hW' old. love, C. Mack. Bill James doos likewise fn his mote to get bick
irite the Braves' pitching cast Jimmy Archer w'lll coarh and get a
catching trial with tho Pirates, whilo Smokj Joe Wood will stage a
return to fast society with Cleveland Bob Harmon will bo back from
the Louisiana Tnnch as a Pirato and Grovcr Lowdermllk will bo lu a
like position In the middle of tho diamond with the lowly Browns. Christy
Mathewson has stated that ho expected to pitch some this season and It
the old wizard returns to tho pitching gamo ho will at least, a manager,
ve a good drawing crd Bill Donovan likewise has been hinted as un
active possibility by Hughle Jennings).
"W0nD from tho Nc,V rleans fa'ning camp of the Cleveland
' team already has It that Smoky Joo Wood seems sure to conle
through. It Is said that his arm Is an good as new nnd that he
Is. showing such good form as a fielder and hitler that ho is certain
to stick In the gamo this time.
Wise Pitcher Changes His Style, Sags Coombs
rrjHK successful pitcher must follow the example of the successful mukcis
'-"'of garments and settcts of fashions, according lo Jack Coombs. The
Is must bo changed with the seasons to enable a boman to bo effective,
ho must surprise the batter with something now, states Colby Jack'
The, veteran sago is giving this advlco to Al Mamaux at Hot Springa
,Mt4 Is trying tu get tho uncertain boNman to completed alter hla hurling
fru
"The batters got wise after a while whether a man Is a high oi
ball pitcher," quoth Jack. "They remember tho nct spring what
Mm) of a delivery to expect, and If tho pitcher sticks to his old style it's
cK. l, oft with him. Jly advice to the high-ball pitcher of last vcar Is to
WKch to the low ball this season and vice versa. Tho batter will bo
Iwtfclne for tho high balls of a year ago, and lfthe pitcher feeds tho
taw-rtlcIo for a while he's got tho batters going south. Of course, a
ikious ratxturo now and,then will keep them fooled all the time."
-In the caso of Mamaux, Coombsctpressed the opinion that Al had not
changed his high-ball delivery slnco his good year with the Pirates, and '
the fact that he has been hit hard sinco was becauso he did not switch
fin tho batters were hep to his old army tactics, so to speak.
Al maintained that bo had used u low ball almost exclusively last
son, but Jack argued tho matter, especially whero it related to tho
'Brooklyn games In which Mamaux took part. It was a stand-off, though
A,may bo expected to spring the unexpected after a few moro confabs
with Colby Jack and Uncle Hobble.
