WOOD'S SAD ROMANCE
SEVERAL OF OUR ATHLETICS
LAST SEASON SMACKED THE BALL
SAFEL Y TWICE IN SINGLE INNING
By ROBERT W, MAXWELV.
Sport Editor ETttilnr PnbUo Idger
St. Petersburg, Fl., Feb. 23.
ALTHOUGH our Athletics finished last year tather fnr
down, almost as far as Lake Charles, La., there were
several Individual performances worth mentioning before
the 1020 season Is finally thrown into the discard. Per
kins, Ilomtnel, C. Walker and Griffin form ii quartet of
young men who achieved the distinction of slapping out,
two safe raps in the course of n single inning. This
stunt, while not a world's record by any means, is rare,
and Indicates that the gentlemen who perform it are at
least on their toes for the time being.
There were otheTS in the American League who also
d this. Last year this list included Buck Weaver and
John Collins, of the White Sox: Brower and Rice, of
Washington, Hannnn and Bob Shawkcy, of the ?ew York
Yankees. . ,, ,
Only one player In tbe American League came through
with two hits in one inning on more than one occasion.
This was John Tobln, of the St. Louis Browns.
American Leaguers of the past have been known to
weigh in with a pair of doubles and a pair of differently
ited long hits in one sesslou, but both these feats were
beyond the reach of the 1020 .Tohnsonltes, though in many
ways It was n record year for hitting.
Jackson, of Chicago, and Kenneth Williams, of St.
Louis, laid claim to the premier accomplishment for one
round by Inserting a single and triple into said round.
The Gleasonite did this in the fourth against Cleveland
on June 16, Caldwell and Fneth pitching; the BuTkeman
in tho second against New York on July 15, Mays and
Thormahlen on the mound.
Players who had a single and a double to show for an
inning's work were Both, of Washington, and Jacobson
and Tobln, of St. Louis. Tobln made two hits for a total
of three bates in tho second spasm of the game with the
Athletics on September 17 against the pitching of Naylor
and Blgbce On .lune 12 John, in the first round of the
conflict with Boston, Samuel Pond Jones pitching, sin
jgled twice.
Of players who had a pa6s and a walk to show lor
two trips to the plate in one chapter there were eleven.
Chicago being represented by Eddie Collins, Cleveland by
Speaker, New York by Ruth nnd Plpp, Philadelphia by
High and Welsh and St. Louis by Slsler, Tobin, Gedeon,
Lynch and Severeid. Tho Browns probably had more large
scoring sessions than any of their rivals, and it was poor
pitching, not poor bitting, that kept them from fighting
it out with the leaders.
Joe Judge, of Washington, and George Orme. of Bos
ton, stood in a classy themselves in being able to get
two passes from pitchers in one inning, but there were a
4ozen men who went from plate to plate twice before the
third ont was recorded. Five Yanks did this in the fifth
ngalnst Washington on July 0: three Athletics turned the
trick in the seventh against Detroit on August 11.
yOUNQ Mr Rxlltr. of the Red Sox, distinguithtd
himself at Detroit nn September 17 6y itriktvo
',. nut twice in the tcvenih, Hesters. Bopert and llor
riicltc hanging th K stgn on Mm. He thus popu
t larized himself tcith the Detroit scribes, for if he
hadn't Ueice fanned the inning probably never would
) have beeti finished.

Several Fake Records for 1920
rplIERB arc quite a number of fake records floating
X around the country, and here is one of them, put out
by tho man who cheerfully admits he is America's greatest
baseball statistician:
"When Babe Ruth made three home runs in two suc
cessive games, May 11 and 12, he equaled Ed William
eon's record."
Then the palpitating populace Is informed that Ed
went the Babo one better by making four home runs in
three successive games, one of tbeso procured off Ed
Biiffington, whose front namo happened to be Charles.
In order to set a new record for tho major leagues for
two consecutive games the Battering Babe, now at Hot
Springs removing some of his surplus avoirdupois, merely
will have to make six, which does not seem to bo an im
possible feat for him, provided the pitchers only will let
him get a chance to hit the ball nnd not walk him.
Adrian ConBtantine Anson, one of the two men who
has helped make Marsballtown, la., famous (the other is
President James C. Dunn, of tbe Indians), released five
circuit drives in two successive games back in 1884, these
games being played in Chicago nnd the White Stockings
then having as their opponents the team from the city
Dunn supplied with a world's championship last fall.
rJBE venerated veteran, ichose loyalty to the na
tional game and the National League prevented
him from piling up a fortune, made Uoo home runs
off ifoCormick, of Cleveland, on August 5, 188 i,
and the next day made three off Moffat, of tho tame
team, the last three coming in succession, Chicago
lost the first of these games and icon the second.
Pop Anson on the Rubber
IN THE game dropped by the Sox Anson was on the
rubber when Cleveland got the runs that put her in
front, Lynch, a deaf niutc from Washington, nfter pitch
ing effectively for seven innings, tiring nnd exchanging
places with the Chicago leader. Lynch quit with a two
run lead, but this vanished when errors let three Cleve
land players reach first, Charley Smith and Pete Hotaling
contributing homers while the muffing matinee was on.
The next day Anson stuck to first base nnd, with Cor
coran pitching, the Sox won easily from Cleveland, 13 to 4,
Anson s part of tho victory being to supply three four
baggers, the hits being made in tbe second, fifth and
seventh.
Adrian O. is the major league record holder for home
runs in two successive games in all probability, and un
doubtedly is the only National Leaguer who ever covered
first base wearing, besides his uniform, a gray wig and a
long, flowing white beard. The Chicago fans thought
Anse should let some youngster cover first in 1801, and
the veteran had his laugh on them by appearing on the
field that way and playing through the game. Chicago
won it.
Another thing Anson has done that very few major or
minor leaguers have accomplished is to mako two un
assisted double plays in one combat. He turned this feat
while first-basing for Chicago on August 7, 1801, in a
game with Boston, and the feat was not accomplished
again until September 17, 1010. Dick Hoblitzcl, then
covering first for the Reds, doubled up a pair of Phillies
rwice without aid.
LAST year Paddy BoAimann, former Tger and
Yankee, made two unassisted double plays at
third base for Jersey Ciy against Syracuse on
May 37.
Bill Haeffner Is a Holdout
BILL HAEFFNER, backstop of the Pittsburgh Pirates,
who is a resident of Philadelphia, is a holdout. Re
ports sent out from Pittsburgh have had HaeffncT's name
on the list of players signed, but this is not. the case.
Haeffner has returned his contract unsigned, as the figures
in It do not meet with his approval.
llaeffner was signed by George Gibson last season and
was the "find" of the year among major league backstops.
When Walter Schmidt, regular Pirate catcher, was in
jured in the middle of the season Haeffner jumped into
the breach and filled tbe shoes of the veteron in such an
acceptable manner that upon bis return to the game
Haeffner shared the work behind the bat with Schmidt.
Haeffner is well known, in Philadelphia and has played
with many local clubs there. He played for a number of
seasons in the Delaware County League with Frank Poth's
Chester club. This is one of the few cases where a sand-
lot player went directly into the big league without any'
minor league experience and made good.
r. BPEAKINQ of the matter Bill juid: "J have
' ' returned tho contraot tendered me, as 1 wilt not
jipn at the figure named. It is an increase over the
talary last year, and tohfle f appreciate the manner
m which I have been treated by George Qibton and
what he has done for me, still I cannot see my icay
clear to report an March unless the finanoial terms
are satisfactorily adjusted." Haeffner played in
tiaty games last season and predicts a btg season for
the Ptrates this year.

By GHANTLAND RICE
PENN SEES RED AND BLUE
IF 1921 GOLF UNDISCUSSED
Only Two Veterans Left and Last Year's Candidates Not Too
Promising for Stiff Links Schedule to Be Played
By SANDY McNIBLICK
T7HEN even a dyed-in-the-wool Red
nnd Blue rooter like .Too Labium
gets down in the mouth ovor the pros
pects of dear old Pcnn in any sport there
must be something to worry about.
And when Rooter Labrum thinks of
Penn's chances this year on the golf
links he pulls a long face, which is a
wheeze for tbe fact that it makes him
unhappy.
"You know what Penn did last year
on the links," mourned the domon cor
respondent today. "Not bad, but NOT
good. And figurez vous. only two ot
laBt year's team will be eligible to play
this year. There Is only one other good
prospect in college for this year's
team."
All of which means tbat Penn's golf
team will be lucky to finish in the
league, evidently.
Robert Rownd, who was either lead
off man or next In order last year, is the
manager of the team this season, nnd
will probably play No. 1. The only
i other veteran who will vote this year,
according to Labrum, is Donald C.
I Davis, who learned his golf at Altoona
1 High, a boost either wuy.
Golfer Born
Manager Rowad's brother, D. T.. is
, the only likely looking candidate for the
team. He's a freshman and will prob-
two student golfers is or was the cham
pion of West Virginia, so they come by
their golf skill naturally.
"Bob" Rownd pktys a finished game
of golf and but for temperamental
streaks should do very well this season.
He was one of tho mainstays of the
team last year
Dan Rhoades, Herbert B. Calves, B.
I Taylor and other bulwarks of last
year's line-up arc out of tho running.
All those who didn't break in last year
on account of theso formidable links
men now have the chance of their Ufa
to make a Penn team, but from cor
respondence tbe subject the leaders of
the 1021 team don t appear to be cheer
ing their heads off at that prospect.
At any rate, nractlco will start after
Easter at Merion. Tbe call for can
didates is particularly vociferous.
A tough schedulo has been arranged,
but tho dates set are not ready for tbe
public prints, as they're only tentative.
Here is the card :

Chicago last year, where he won his
"C" for capturing tho western "big

of national reputation.
Ynle has Jcsso Sweetser, intercol
legiate champion, as No. 1. New stars
in intorcolleglato circles may give him
a run to defend his crown, but the
blonde-headed warrior looks fairly safe.

Iowa Legalises Boxing
Des Moines. Feb. 26. A bill to legalize
boxing and place it under control of a
state commission waa vassea or tne nouse
of th Iowa Legislature here.
A FEW days ago we ran across an
old friend who used to be known
as Joseph "Smokeball" Wood or
"Smoky '' Joe. . , , .
He is now merely Joseph Wood, of
Cleveland. The "Smokeball" appella
tion has been canned, nnd In the can
ning thereof you havo one of the great
est romances of the game.
Wood's Dllernmn
IN THE fall of 1012 Wood, then a
star with tho Boston Red Sox, stood
upon the threshold of greatness.
He was then only twenty-three years
old. Ho hod lust won thlrty-four-games
against flvo defeats for tho avcrago of
.878, tho highest ever known In the
Amdi-tfnn Tniriin. heforo or slnCO.
He stood eleven points nigner man
Bill Donovan's best record and nearly
thirty points above tho best that Walter
Johnson had ever offered.
He had also Just concluded a whirl
wind series triumph against the New
York Giants.
And ho was just twenty-three years
old, almost to tho day.
In the spring of 1013 Wood developed
a lame shoulder. At twenty-four a lamo
shoulder isn't as bqtIoub an affair as a
larao shoulder is at thirty-two. Ho
still had flashes of his once terrific speed ,
but each effort was accompanied by a
jab of pain.
For threo seasons Wood stuck around,
working here and thero in a vain effort;
to get going again. He might easily
have been the greatest pitcher of all tltno
If his arm had held up, judging by the
brilliancy of his start.
But after threo years of almost wasted
effort Wood finally retired in 1010 at
tho ago of twenty-seven.
The New Start
WHEN tho spring of 1017 arrived
Wood was still a young man with
but one defect a kink in his right
shoulder.
But as pitching happened to be his
profession, ho might just as well havo
been n runner with a broken leg.
There wcro two qualities that carried
him throueh brains nnd courage. In
place of retiring Wood decided to moke
an outfielder of himself, nnd at TtIb
Speaker's request he was given his
chance.
Wood Is still a member of the Cleve
land outfield and a valuable addition to
tho team.
Wood Anent the Pennnnt
s(TS FT to be Cleveland or Now York I
J- this year?" we asked Wood,
"I look xor a great cattle Between
Cleveland nnd Now York," Wood an
swered, "with Cleveland luat ..
enough to win. Why? Fir?t t,
of Trls Speaker. You can couht
bunch giving him 100 per cent 0?Khl
