Ijy that wonderful pitching battle In Cleveland Tuesday ,
fcwof the spectators realized they were gazing upon the
i lf st spltball duel in the major leagues. The best pltcher.i
in the Cleveland nnd Brooklyn clubs probably made their
final bow to the sport public nnd the curtain fell on their
baseball careers umld scenes of wildest excitement.
, It seems tough to reward a hero like Covcleskic with
tho bluo envelope after those three grand nnd glorious
victories which won the pennant for the Indlnns. The
Same goes for Burleigh Grimes, who worked his heart out
In a futllo effort to halt the winning streak of the Ameri
can League rivals. Yet. while wild-eyed, raving, Inco
herent fans were celebrating the winning of the world
series, the heroes of the day virtually walked out of the
picture.
Last winter the major leagues revised the rules. They
legislated against all forms of freak pitching, eliminating
the shine ball, the emery ball, the paraffinc, tallow and
other deliveries which hnd become popular. The splt-
,, ball also was sentenced to die, but a reprieve of one year
Was granted.
Spltball pitchers were permitted to work this year and
try, if possible, to master a legal form of delivery. Club
owners sent in the names -of these twlrlers to the league
' presidents nnd only those on the list were permitted to
V tamper with the hall in nny way. No young pitchers who
used the moist delivery were admitted to the major
leagues. The magnates were unnnimous in ruling that
beginning in 10121 only the old-fashiuned pitching would
be nllowed. '
Pitchers liki Coveleskio nnd Grimes did not iibolish
the spltbnll. Their clubs were up in the pennant race and
they had to go at top speed nil season. They oouldu't
experiment and lose ball games. Therefore they became
more proficient snliva "dingers, gave everything they had
to help their ball clubs nnd let the future take cure of
ittclf.
They say it is easy to get along without the spittcr,
but such is not the case. Slim Sallec tried it nnd failed.
Eller, deprived of his shine ball, was only n mediocre
performer, and the others suffered the same fate. A
4 pitcher perfects his stylo after years of hard work, and it
takes time to start all over ngaln.
niJItlTA
anothi
PS the major league presidents will ffranl
annual meeting this n inter, but this it tint UUtly In
be done unless it is absolutely necessary. If a
houseeleaning is made and all of the suspected
crooked ball players arc driven out of the name,
there tcill be a lot of vacant places to br filled, and
this might save the spttters another year.
Speaker Disproves Wail of Owners
ALL last season the club owners hae been crying about
the scarcity of material in the minor leagues nnd how
hard it is to get ball players to plug the weak spots.
"Show me. where 1 can get the players," said one
'xnngnce, "and I will pay any price within reason for
them. But where are you going to get them?"
Dining the war the minor leagues were almost put out
of mslness aud many were forced to close their parks.
Young players were iu some branch of the service nnd
the big leagues used only those above military age or
those who had been exempted. It was hard to develop
future greats then, but it is different now.
Cleveland proved thnt it is possible to go out in the
minors and get good ball players. When Chapman was
killed a shortstop wns needed immediately. Scouts were
sent all over the country, every minor league was visited
and young Sewell was discovered. This kid is not a
nsMicd ball player, but was good enough to take the
plare of one of 1 lie stars of tho game and get nway with it.
A left-handed pitcher also was needed, Dick Nelhaus
was purchased from St. Paul last year nnd wns expected
to till the bill, but he failed to come through. It was the
samo with other southpaws, and Speaker realized that
unless he had one good portslder on his club the chances
of winning the pennant would bo mighty slim.
Another search was made and Walter Malls was lifted
from Portland. Mails hnd been in the big leagues before,
but failed to niako good. For that reason he wns not
considered seriously and was passed up by every one but
the Cleveland scouts.
All Mails did after joining tho Indians wns win six
games in n row. In the world series he pitched fifteen
nnd one-third innings and did not nllow a run. His
ictorv over Shorrod Smith in the sixth world scries game
put Clevclnnd iu h position to win the series with fo.ur
straight game.
THEREFORE, it looks as if the hotels of the
magnates arc something like hokum. If a real
effort is made to get players of big-league caliber
in the minors it can be done: Tris Speaker proved it.
Smith Homer Decides Scries
rniiK world series was played nil over ngaln on the
-L special train which carried the scribes and Brooklyn
plners from Cleveland. The Dodgers seemed disap
pointed, but necepted their defeat In a philosophical
manner, because that was the only thing they could do.
Smith's home run with the bases full was considered
tne turning point iu the series.
"I tried to keep the ball on the inside," said Grimes,
"because Smith can't hit very well against that Kind of
pitching. I felt sure the ball would be In there, but the
.Iiitter failed to work, the ball did not curve nnd Elmer
reached out nnd poked it over the fence."
Thnt was the game In which Bagby allowed thirteen
hits nnd Grimes and Mitclyll nllowed twelve. Despite
this, the Indians won by the score of 8 to 1, Elmer
Smith's one hit discounting the thirteen made by the
Dodgers.
Tho triple play which wns pulled oft by Wambsganss
nlso was taken up. It will he remembered that Kilduft
n on second and Miller on first, with none out, and
Mitchell nt bnt. Somebody wanted to know how it hap
pened thnt Miller wns so close to second when Wamby
i aught the bull, because Otto is a slow runner and never
has shown any signs of speed before".
"That was n hit-nnd-run play." said one of the
plnyers. "Mitchell, who Is n good hitter, flashed the sign,
nnd as soon ns the ball left Bngby's hand the base runneis
started to go. It. wns easy for Wamby to make the play
nftcr spearing the ball."

Speaker Played Great Game
(Sti of the outstanding features of the series was
Vy work of Tris Speaker. The Cleveland manngcr is
Jnno uf the stars of the game, but ofttimes a star flops
miserably iu the championship series. But Spoke played
great baseball from the start. His sensational fielding In
the games iu Brooklyn aud his hitting In Cleveland kept
his team in the running.
Little gambling was done, but every spectator ap
pointed himself p private detective nnd looked for suspi
cious moves on ithe part of any of the players. The
Chicago scandal made them wary, but it must be said
there was nothing phony nbout this series.
The best team won. Ebbcts says so and so does Jim

i By
rpHET say in football that "a good
offense is the best defense," and this
same line may be attributed to boxing.
At the American debut of Georges Car
pentier. in Jersey City Tuesday night,
when Battling Levinsky wns knocked
out in the fourth round, there were a lot
of fans and critics who doubted the
ability of the Frenchman within the
squared circle because he failed to show
any defensive prowess.
Why this particular flaw should be
picked in the brilliant exhibition put
on by the foreign fistmnn in his one
sided victory over Levinsky can hardly
be realized. Carpentier did not have
to show any defense. He was on the
offense so much, in fact, almost every
second the bout lasted, that Georges
didn't have time to prove whether or not
he had the ability to remain on his feet
under fire.
Like a "Dud"
Levinsky was like a "dud," or some
other unexploslve. The Philadelphia!)
didn't land n single blow with any
weight behind it, nor did it seem ns if he
tried. Barney nppeared to be scared
out of his wits, and ifCarpentier had
taken the trouble to prove that he had
any defensive ability he would hove
made himself look foolish. There was
nothing that Levinsky hud. or uttempted
to use that necessitated Georges to nut
on liis defense. Furthermore, Carpentier
did not give the bnttler a chance to put
on an offensive.
It was all that Levinsky could do to
stave off a knockout ns long as he uiu.
nnd before Carpentier's defense can be
dissected, some one. mostly an aggres
sive boxer who will not permit the
Frenchman to do all the lending, will
hne to be pitted against him.
Finding some one who figures that
Carpentier ran win from World's
Champion .Tack Dcmpsey Is like looking
for a potato in a cornnciu, even imer
the way Georges go easily outclassed Le-
LOUIS II. JAFFE
vlnsky. Still only a match between
them enn prove whether Dempscy really
Is the Frenchman's master. That Car
pentier can hit has been proved, also
that he Is fast, has a great assortment
of punches and is shifty.
Against Dcmpsey. Carpentier would
be as much of n set-up for the cham
pion ns Levinsky was for the French
man, if Georges were to use his same
system of attack as be did in his match
with Barney. There hardly is nny
doubt that Carpentier would change his
tactics entirely, be on the defensive and,
instead of uncorking flocks of punches
as he did in the Levinsky bout, would
bide his time nnd attempt to sneak one
oter on Dempscy.
Larpcntier s defense nnd whether or
not "ho can tnke it" seem to be the
only skeptical parts of his pugilistic
makeup. And that is a whole lot to
find out. These fistic points will con
tinue to remain In doubt unless someone

man's great offense is doubled up in
the same ring with the smiling Parisian

Levinsky says that he was never hit
harder at any time during his long en
reer when Carpentier connected with
his chin, and Barney added. "That
goes for Dcmpsey I (know, because
Jack got several good soaks at me, too."

parties concerned In the Chase case.
Most of those involved knew well

had developed In the Red Sox world
series. They let it slide until a CM-,
cago grand jury, took up the scandal
and spread it broadcast. In spite nt
all this It may bo they are going to At

If that la the case, then professional
baseball Is through so far ns this fen

Perhaps He's Bight ,
A MAN quite close to the big Intsr
csts of baseball made this remark
today: "They nre not going to do n
thing. They are going to try to stall
around for a short while, let the matter
drop and then gamble on the public's
forgetting. They nro smart enough tn
know that tho public forgets quickly
and that It doesn't like to be bothered
by any one scandal too long. A number
of promises will be mnde, but few of,"
these will ever be carried out. Theri
will be no change at the top. There
will bo no chango to apenk of anywhere.
You can write that down ns a certainty,
no matter how many meetings they
have."
If this Is true, there is only one thlna

The crooks, of course, are through

brought back the game would be fin
Ished unless the baseball colony at large
Is the most fcclde-mlnded collection of
humans that over lived.
But casting out the crooks and

most of the club owners bcllevo It Is.
Outside of the proven crooks there have

New York, Oct. 1 1. There has been
considerably more discussion nnent the
Cnrpenticr-Dempsey nffair the day
after the bout than in the week pre
ceding the event. This was due en
tirely to the peculiar performance of
Battling Levinsky from the beginning
of the first round up to tho time in tho
fourth round thnt he tumbled through
the ropes In a neutral corner and was
counted out by the icferee.
If Levinsky exerted hlmclf to tho
best of his nbi'itj in thnt contest then
he has assuredly reached the end of his
pugilistic rope nnd should formally ic
tire from the ring.
But if Levinsky. for reasons not gen
erally known, did not put forth his beat
efforts, it becomes n matter calling for
rigid Investigation by the Boxing Com
mission of New Jersey nnd nlso the
New York commission, which' Issued a
license card to the battler.
Levinsky never lias been n hard hit
ter, nnd knowledge of this fact was
doubtless what impelled Carpentier to
stick out his chin in the third round as
an imitation to the battler to shoot at
Iho mark. But Levinsky lias always
been n defensive fighter par excellence.
Ills ring generalship has been of the
first order, and he has shown remark
able ability to nsulniilnle punishment.
These qualities hne enabled him to
outpoint some pf the best heavyweights
in the ilng nnd resulted in his acquire
ment of tiie light heavyweight title of
America. His victory over Jack Dillon
when the lloosier Bearcat was nt his
best was n notable achievement nnd
stamped Levinsky as a boxer of the
first rank.
