Alex More Effective in 1913
GnOVEK CLEVKIiA.Nl AI.KNANDr.U. who put St.
Paul. Neb., on the baseball map and who was pri
marily responsible for the Thillies' first pennant, was a
mite more effective when he was pliu-ing together his first
big Xntlonal League winning streak iu 101", than when he
was copping eleven contests in a row this ear.
Alex limited his opponents to n .-00 lutting credit
seven years ago when lie pitched ten vietorics in sripience.
This year his adversaries hit .010 better nitainst the
Plainsman when they were being subdued eleven times iu
uCcession.
Each time when the famous Plainsman was hreesins
along beating everybody it vns a western curvcr (and u
Red discard, tool who came along and stopped him.
t Hack in lfll.'l Alex started the season ! figuring in
an eleven-inning rimless lie with the (Jiants on April 'J."i.
being opposed by Otis Crnndull and Al Dciuurco, and then
he went out and landed ten games, in a stretch, his ir
torious career being linked by Lorry Cheney, of the Cubs.

IFins in Extra Innings From Cards
X ALEX'S last big streak he had to work nine or more
Innings in nil his wins except one. in the game wiii
tlie Cardinals on Sundav. Ma 'J. the Cubs tied tlie score,
for Claude Hendryx in the ninth, but the Olnthc (Kim.)
spithall expert had been irnioved fnun the picture hemic
they did so. and a new luirler was needed when the
struggle started all over again in the tenth.
Alexander was Kred Mitchell's choice. Alex stnrted
oh" by fanning Rogers Hornsbv ami then passed .lacipies
Kournier. The world's worst first bnsemnn (nt least
.lacipies hud that title when he was witli the White Sox)
bent his way to second, whereupon Alexander fanned
Austin Mcllenry nnd Harold .Innvrln.
In the last section of round No 10 the Itrulns won on
Hill Klllefer's double after Uode Paskert hud been stung
in the ribs by .less Huines. Alexander got credit for
the win.
When he won ten straight in 10i:i Alexander bent live
clubs, not getting n chance to conquer the Prnves nnd
falling down on his attempt to subdue the Cubs. He bent
the (Hants twice, then downed St. Louis, Pittsbrugh nnd
Cincinnati, took two falls out of ltrooklyn and thn
trimmed Pittsburgh, Cincinnati anil St. Louis.
Included in his ten wins were three shutouts, the
Cilants, Pirates and Dodgers suffering Alex's bet
pitclied game In this string was a two-hit affair ngali st
St. Louis.

G PITCHERS
iUse of Shine Ball and Resin
1
, Should Be Permitted, Plea
f of Eller and Sallee .
Kew York, June 11. Hod Kller ami
Slim Sallee. pitchers of the Cincinnati
club, claiming that they are improperly
and Illegally restrained nnd prevented
from earning their livelihood by the
ucr pitching rules, interviewed John A
Heydler tndav. ' Snllee and I'.ller set
forth these propositions :
The shine-bull, ns used by Kller. nnd
the use of resin by Sallee. nierelv to
help his grip on the bn!!. are not illegal
and should not be forbidden.
The rules barring these deliveries
have ruined the skill of both thi - enpn I
We pitchers, have rendered them use
leon to the Cincinnati lnb. nnd lune
therefore imposed an unjust h.indiuip
upon that club.
, There can lie no question as In Ine
right of the leagUP to rei md these '
rules, If desired, as rules coniemingi
dead balls nnd home runs alrendv hnve
befn nltcred since the beginning of the !
Benson. Snllre nnd I'ller. therefore, j
"asked Mr Ilevdler for immediate relief
and the legalization of their piMiIng
"I propose to make n test ase of
myself." snld Kller. "If 1 cniiuot get
relief from the head of the woiks, I
nhall. In the first game I pitch, go right
ahead nnd use the shine -ball If the I
umpire ejects me. I shall at once bring
milt ngninst the National League, alleg
ing that it is by illegal restrictions pro
Tenting a reputable bnll player from
th earning of his living.
'My use of resin, ' said bailee, is
not for tririi deliveries of nn. kind, but
to get a firmer grip nnd good control
Since have been forbidden its use I
Jjave been wild, umertain nnd without
my former effectiveness. If I am to be
stopped by such restrictions, I shall give
tip tho game and retire, as I do not
"wish to draw my siilary under false pre

Quarter-Century as Caddies,
but Two Still Going Strong
The-historv of nrrntctir champion
ships held In' the Cnlted States runs
back over a space of twenty-six
jears.
The history of .foe llorgan as a
caddy runs hack n jear before that.
He caddied for Mrs. P. K. Dubois:,
New York, In the tinnl round of the
(Iriscom Cup matches at the Cricket
Club today. When Morgan claims u
home it is New York, but the
"daddy" of all the club's carriers
goes from tournament to tourna
ment, all over the country. Wher
ever a big battle of the links is
scheduled .loe hears the call and gets
there somehow. He's caddied for nit
of the big (linniplons, Jerry Trav
crs et ill.
To Horgan has been handed tlie
job of caddying for Harry Yaidoii
during ills visit to this country. It's
pure love of the game that has made
him stick to it through tlie years.
"Yeah, this is my twenty-seventh
year," he said proudly. "Rut tills
teller's got me bent."
He pointed to Prank Kelley,
known ns "Jim Rarnes's cadd."
They say Kelley has nn even longer
span of service. He doesn't remem
ber. Kelley didn't go nbroad with
Harnes because he couldn't get 11
berth. Me hates to think of Hnrnes
there "nloiic."
"Hut I'll catch up to him when he
gets back."
TTOW mnny men, playing lmschiill or
golf, grip a bat or n club a certain
way becnuse they were taught that
wny? Recntise they happened to start
that wny? Rccnuse, after various tests,
they found a certain wny best suited to
their stylo?
And, nfter nil, just how much dif
ference does It make the way you grip
n hnsebnll lint or n coif club? Docs It
make n big difference or Is It 11 minor
1 matter?
' lntit Vnrlnilna

KRMArS you've never turned on it
ns-o-un of "Rnbc" Ruth's grip.
The "Hnbe" first puts the end of the
bnt in the pnlm of his right hniid. He
literally palms the end, Ids left bond
being crowded upon his right. Hoth nre
unttirnlly enough under these circum
stances ns close to the gripping end as
It Is possible to get.
I Only a bntter with iinusunl physlrnl
, power In his hnnds nnd nrnis rnulil
I swing n long, heavy bnt with this grip,
1 which permits the maximum of lever
age. , Ruth's grip is entirely different from
, Ty Cobb's. Ty'N right hand Is near the
end of the bnt, but his left Is severnl
1 inches higher up. There Is n distinct
space of nt lenst live or six Inches be
tween the two hnnds. Roth Ruth and
Cobb differ In every wny from Willie
Keeler. who adopted the fashion of
1 gripping the bnt nenr the middle. When
1 the AVee One picked up a bnt and faced
' tho pitcher there wns as much ash fur
' nilnre below his hnnds ns there wns
1 above to hit the ball. Then, ngnln, Kd
j Roush, National Lengue champion, bus
I nnother wny of gripping, ns he holds
, both hnnds together, nbout six inches
from the end.
All Different
SO IIKRK we hnve four notnble lints
men who nil hold the'ir huts in dif
ferent ways. Cobb. Ruth, Roush and
Keeler for one rensnn or nnother find
i It more effective to follow 11 certain
' system.
J They may have begun that way they
1 may have been taught that way or they
may have worked out their systems from
mnny experiments. Hut the fnct is they
get result with varying grips.
The Sumo in Golf
TMK golf grip is supposed to be ipilte
impnrtnnt. Yet Wnlter Ilngen,
open champion, uses the overlapping
grip; Francis Ouimet, ex open and ex-
nninteur chnmplon, uses the interlocking
grip, with tho llttlo finger of his right
hand anil the forefinger of his left han,)
hooked; Jerome D. Travis, fou'n times
amnteur clinnlploti, uses the Y-grip,
where his hands nre neither overlapped
nor Interlocked. "Chick" Kvans uses 1
still different grip, with both thumbs
iIowmi the shnft.
Here we have such golfers ns Magen
Ouimet, Travis and luvans all gripping
the club in vnrlous wnys and nil good
enough to win open oramnte.ur clif tn
plonshlps. The main thing aeems tn be to get a
grip that is comfortable, thnt feels tmtu
rnl nnd thnt gives a .feeling of ome
nnwer. Ilngen would llkelv hnve nlnv,i
just ns good golf with Oulmct's grip
nnd Ouimet would hnve nlnvml lut ...
good golf with tho Evans or Travis grin
It doesn't seem to mnke much differ-'
ence ns long ns other necessary IngredL
ents nre applied.
YET in golf it might be stntcd that
most of the lending "pros" use the
overlapping grip, so when in doubt fol
low the main nvcrage.
( Extended Licvcrago
TT MIGHT be noted In passing that
1
two of the most remnrknble hitters
of all time use the system of extended
Ievcrnge.
These two nro "Rabe" Ruth nnd
.Tnck 'Dempsey.
Ry extended leverages we mean n
leverage thnt begins nt the waist In
the first pivot, and that extend
through the shoulders, elbows, wrlstn,
onto the punch.
Ruth could never get the distance
he does by merely slashing away with
his arms. Tho pivot from his wn'nt
line stnrts his big body back of the
blow with his arm nnd wrists merely
contributing their share.
In the same way Dempsey hns n
pivoting motion from Ills right hip thnt
gets iu back of a short jab nnd add
n tremendous amount of power to the
puueh. '
There is a sudden twist to the body
just abovo tho right hip that gets in
luent.
back of the waliop at the proper tun.
Through his abnormal knnck at enn
trolling his timing Dempsey has been
able to knock down 240 and .r() pound
ers with one rap.
