    THE CITIZEN, FRIDAY, SEIT. 15, 1011.
LAJOIE TELL
HIS HARDEST H
When He Put Force Behind Swing
It Didn't Count.
BRICK WALL VMS THE FIELDER,
Larry Thought It Was a 8ure Homer,
but Wat Unexpectedly Tagged Out
by Second Backer, Who Had Re
ceived Ball on Rebound From Wall.
"I have, of course, made quite a few
long bits and bard hits in my time,"
sold Larry Lajoie, the veteran infielder
of the Cleveland Americans, the other
day. "Some of them went a good deal
farther than others, and some of them
were smashed with a good deal more
vigor than the rest, all depending
largely, of course, upon the way the
Oat met the leather.
"I have a keen and painful recollec
tion, however, of what I think was the
hardest hit I ever made. The recollec
tion is specially keen and extremely

painful because I wasted so much en
ergy on the blamed thing and because
the best I got was the hawhaw.
"It was way back in tho days when
I was on the old Philadelphia team,
which, as you will remember, was
some aggregation of swatsmlths. Al
though I was rather new to the big
league in those days, I seemed to lit
in with that bunch all right and was
hitting along with the rest of the tribe.
"In those days the right field fence
in Philadelphia was close, and the
fielders used to play to tako them ou
the bound as they came back from
the fence. In one game, If I remem
ber rightly, three men were thrown
out at first on what should have been
the safest kind of hits. But that Is
another story.
"The afternoon I made my great hit
was one of good, husky batting. LIfo
was mlserablo for all tho pitchers and
especially for our performers. When
tho last half of the ninth arrived wo
were to the bad something like 0 to 7.
There were a hit, nn out, a base on balls
and n pop fly. I came up, with men on
first and second, two gone and tho
chance to tie or win before me.
"The ball came over hissing hot. I
grazed it, and that was all. Tho next
one must have been Intended simply as
a teaser, for it drifted over so slow and
easy that a baby could have hit it with
a wire. I thought the hurler never
meant to got It near the pan, but was
playing wide to get a possible fall out
of tho runner, who was leading off sec
ond. Anyhow, It came over the size of
a balloon. 'Oh, Joy!" said I, and I
leaned the bat against that ball with
nil my weight and muscle.
"To the best of my recollection 1
never before or since hit a ball bo hard
as that one. I could almost feel tho
leather being driven into tho core of
tho yarn and rubber by the force of
that tremendous drive, and tho sting
ran up tho bat. Tho ball went out,
not whizzing, not sailing, but faster,
more terrlflcally speedy than anything
I ever laid tho wood against in all my
life.
"Thero was u glad roar from tho
multitude, and I went down to first,
bent for a homo run, while two men
flew along ahead of me. ' Round first
I went aud steamed for the middle cor
ner. Suddenly n man rose up in my
tracks and stuck the ball into my dia
phragmit was the third out, and the
game' was over.
"now and whyforo? Only this: I
had hit tho ball bo fearfully hard that
U rebounded back from the right field
wall liko a snapped piece of rubber
band. It shot straight back all tho
way to the diamond and leaped right
Into the second baseman's hands for a
aurc trap and tho last ono of the after
noon. And that la the Btory of the
Hardest ball I ever hit. Do you won
Her that the memory gives me a pain?"

where ho camo Into prominence with
the Seattlo high school team that
toured tho country. Ho went to tho
University of Washington and bocamo
captain of that team. His father,

McFarland May Have Fooled
Him oh Weight Question.
PAIR TO MEET IN MILWAUKEE.
Will Be a Battle of Ten Rounds, and
Chicago Boy Expects to Win After a
Ono Sided Bout On Other Hand,
Wolgaat Says He'll Knockout Packy.
Has tho world's lightweight cham
pion, Ad Wolgast, made a serious mis
take In consenting to meet Packy Mc
Farland in a ten round contest in Mil
waukee, Sept. 15? Sporting men who
have followed the work of theso crack
boxers cannot ngree in framing nn an
swer to this oft repeated question.
Photos by American Press Association.
PAGET M'FABLANB AND AD WOt-OAHT WnO
AKE TO MELT IN MILWAUKEE.
James J. Jeffrie, for Instance, declares
that Wolgast has blundered in allow
ing McPnrland to weigh 133 pounds nt
3 o'clock, and even Tom Jones, Wol
gast's manager, holds a similar opin
ion. Wolgast, on the other hand, is as
stubborn as a mule and refuses to ad
mit that McFarland will have even a
slight advantage in physical strength,
although he admits that Packy will
enter the ring nt least six pounds heav
ier Having induced Wolgast to agree to
his terms, therefore, McFarland, in tho
opinion of those who knew his meth
ods, has put ono over on tho world's
title holder.
It Is conceded that Wolgast has
never met a boxer like McFarland.
Tho stockyards pugilist is a marvel in
point of science. He is the quickest
man on ills feet in pugilism, and for
that reason he can put up a wonderful
defense. Moving about the ring with
dazzling swiftness, McFarland can
shoot In blows with either hand in
such a manner that a slower opponent
becomes bewildered. Wolgast is not a
scientific man by a long, shot, and
McFnrland Is well aware of the fact.
Tho champion's best work is done at
close quarters by rushing in, covered
up, and letting fly at his rival's body
with a free hand in half clinches.
McFarland never has nllowed an an
tagonist to fight him that way, for he
persists in keeping at long range,
sacrificing hard hitting for speed.
Wolgast intends to fight McFarland
just as ho did Mornn, ibut McFarland
is Moran's master in every way, and
the ring sharps believe that Wolgast
will find it a difficult task to inflict
Bevero punishment. Wolgast is what
is known as a "rope fighter," because
he persists in driving his opponents to
the edges of the ring or the corners so
that they cannot get awny from his
rough assaults. But not one of tho
men Wolgast has conquered could be
gin to compare with McFarland in
footwork. As a matter of fact, nobody
has possessed sufficient cleverness to
know how to fight tho lightweight
champion, but McFarland says ho has
studied his man with great caro nnd
has hit upon a plan to offset his rugged
assaults.
If Wolgast is outpointed by the Chi
cago phenomenon ho will have him
self to blame, but ho has an anchor to
wlndwnrd in McFarland's promise to
meet him again in a twenty round con
test In California. If they hook up on.
tho coast tho weight will bo the same,
but McFarland will insist that tho
lightweight title shall bo at stake.
Packy always has contended that so
long as a man can mako 133 pounds
during any part of tho day of tho fight
tho championship is involved, but on
this point thero may bo a serious hitch.
