Sports Writer Tells How to Get
Line on Ability Possessed
by Pitchers
By BILLY EVANS
Is Dame Fortune about to smile
on George Dauss late in his pitching
career?
George Dauss for years has been
a member of the Detroit staff of the
American League. His pitching ef
forts have met with varying success.
Never has he quite reached the
heights of stardom.
1 have always regarded Dauss as
one of the best pitchers in the
American League. Perhaps no man
connected with the game is in a bet-
position to judge the worth of a
pitcher than the umpire. Likewise
no one is better fitted to make com
parisons.
To me George Dauss has always
been a great pitcher. In baseball
one is always judged on results. In
the record book for a pitcher to at
tain the realms of stardom he must
be a cossistent winner. Dauss has
never been a consistent pitcher.
Batters Fear Dauss
Another..w ay to get a line on a
pitcher’s effectiveness is to get the
opinion of the opposing batters.
American -League players will tell
you tfiat Dauss has as much stuff
as any'pitcher in the league and a
much better curve hall than a ma
jority. In addition most of them
will tell you that they do not like
to hit against Dauss.
That admission in itself is the best
line one could possibly* get on a
pitcher. When opposing batters ad
mit his style of delivery is such
they do not relish facing him, im
mediately the pitcher secures a de
cided advantage.
There you have the status of
George Dauss. With little or no

Pioneers Once Camped
Where Dempsey Trains
By BILL BREITENSTEIN, N. E. A. Service Writer
GREAT I ALLS, Mont., May 28 —Spirits of Lewis and Clark haunt
Jack Dempsey’s training quarters.
Shades of the gallant explorers, who blazed the white man’s trail
through the great northwest, hover over the spot where the champion is
pummeling his sparring partners.
Here 119 years ago these daring pioneers made camp. Just a mile
above on the banks of the swiftly rushing Missouri, where the Cascade
county )>oor-farm stands today, they smoked the pipe of peace with hos
tile India'ns.
Grizzlies were encountered on a little island half a mile from the
scene of Dempsey’s camp on July 4, 1804. So Lewis and Clark called the
i. land White Bear. ’ 1 hat has been its name ever since.
But there is even more history behind the present “Dempseyville.”
A century after Lewis and Clark' had come, Old Brewer Volk, known
for miles around, was there brewing his hops. It was his grandson, Char
ley Volk, who closed the deal with Dempsey for the property.
1 lu? old biewery burned down some years ago. A roadhouse sprang
up in its place. The old orchestral piano still was in the living room when
JKTck moved in.
Now the inner dance hall is a rubbing room and bath. The outer hall
is. a gymnasium.
With Jack are his two brothers, John and Bernard.
pitching motion his ball is on the
batter quickly. This has a tendency
io throw the batsman off his stride
and make it a much more difficult
matter to correctly time the speed
of the ball.
Dauss Is Great Pitcher 1
Dauss has excellent speed, which
he devileers with a peculiar side-arm
motion. Side-arm pitchers are al
way troublesome. Coupled with a

good fast ball, Dauss boasts a fast
breaking curve that it almost unhit
table when properly controlled. A
line change of pace tends to make
his style all the more puzzling.
On every ball club, however, there
seems to be one hard-luck pitcher.
Dauss has year after year occupied
that position on the Detroit team,
bate always seem unkind to him.
When Dauss pitched tight ball his
opponent usually worked a bit
tighter, as a result his teammates
seldom got him many runs. In a
pinch, an error made behind Dauss
invariably seemed to prove costly.
It was always the same, the breaks
in a majority of cases seemed to go
against Dauss and in a great many
cases the breaks are in the deciding
factor in a ball game.
Getting the Breaks
Dauss has seldom been an early
starter. Usually he has had his trou
bles getting off to a winning start.
This looks to be the big year for
Dauss.
In his first five starts he has been
returned the victor. In each game
he has pitched good ball, the brand
that deserves to win but doesn’t al
ways come out that way.
In every game the breaks have
been with George. Instead of frown
ing on him, as in the past, Dame
Fortune has smiled on him most
graciously.
THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER
lOVEIOWTSTO'
ORGANIZE BASEBALL
TEAM FOR AMERICUS
Robt. C. Lane Asks “Are We to
Abandon the Idea of Pro
gressiveness Forever?’’
ALBANY HAS GOOD TEAM
Asks Civic Clubs of Americus to
Get Behind Movement for
Baseball Here
It has been definitely determin
ed by a number of Americus men
that Americus should have a real
baseball club during the hot sum
mer months that will ensue shortly.
A number of fipialler towns, such as
Leslie, Dawson, Arlington, are let
ting it be known that they have
ball teams, and are also telling ev
eryone that Americus ought to
have one. And in truth there are
few things that hurts the public
spirit in Americus any more, they
say, than to have it known to trav
eling men, and the public surround
ing us, that Americus hasn’t
enough sporting spirit to support
a real baseball club, when towns
one-third its size are able to do so.
Albany has recently authorized a
real baseball team.
‘‘What is the matter with Amer
icus along this line,” said Robert C.
Lane, presenting the matter to the
Times-Recorder this afternoon.
“Are we to abandon the idea of
progressiveness forever, just be
cause years ago somebody lost a
little money on baseball? Wake
up, Americus If the civic clubs
of Americus want to foster the com
munity spirit and public interest,
and have the welfare of Americus
at heart, they can find no better
way to further these ideals than to
sponsor a real baseball team. Such
a ball team would bring our citizens
together in a manner that cannot
be had otherwise. We need to
know each other better.”
Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock
Luther Bloodworth, a star baseball
pitcher from Macon, wil Ipresent to
those citizens of Americus who
want a ball club, a proposition and
outline for a ball club for Ameri
icus. A mass meeting will be held
in the American Legion hall, the
old A. L. I. armory, at 3 o’clock
Thursday afternoon, and everyone
who w’ill is urged to attend, whether
you propose to lend the team finan
cial or moral support, we want you
there at that time.

I MEIGHAN LEADS BY
POPULAR REQUEST.
The selection of Thomas Meigh
an to play. the leading male role
in Cecil B. DeMille’s new Para
mount production of “Manslaght
er,” at the Opera House Wednes
. day and Thursday, was the result
of a wide-spread popular request,
according to Mr. DeMille.
When it was announced that
Paramount had secured the screen
rights to “Manslaughter,!’ critics
and fans throughout the country
showered both Mr. DeMille and Mr.
Meighan with letters in which the
writers pointed out the particular
fitness of the latter for the part
of Daniel O’/Hnnt>n, a district at
torney.
Yielding to this popular request,
Adolph Zukor, Jesse L. Lasky and
Mr. DeMille decided at a confer
ence held while Mr. Zukor was at
the West Coast studio, to hold up
the plans o fthe next Meighan star
ring vehicle and permit the star to
play the role.
Beatrice Joy was chosen by Mr.
DeMille for .the leading feminine
role. Miss Joy’s work in “Saturday i
Night” was responsible for this de- i
cision.
in “Adam and Eva,” which is to be
shown at the Rylander Theatre on
Wednesday.
Suppose you were to come home
night after night and find your
daughter entertaining a housefull
of lounge lizards at your expense,
would you protest? Well, that is
just what James King in the pic
ture does.
The strings on the family money
bag are suddenly drawn tight, and
the ‘master” suddenly hies himself
to South America for a much need
ed rest, placing in charge of the
household a young “go-getter.”
James King is reported bankrupt.
I Result, the regeneration of the e
Itire family. But James is not bank/
rupt, and on his return the fire
works start.
Marion Davies, who scored one
of the greatest hits of 'all-time, is
the star of “Adam and Eva” and
is ably supported by a cast includ
ing T. Roy Barnes.
Today’s attraction at the Rylan
der is “The Bright Shawl,” one of
the bigger and better pictures be
ing brought to Americus by the
new management of that theater.
Richard Barthelmess and Dorothy
Gish are starred in this flaming
story of a dancer’s shawl, rain
hued and silken, fanning passion
and intrigue into flame under Cub
an skies: This shawl brought hate
and strife—and emeshed an Ameri
can boy. The woman who wore it
loved him. She died for that love.
And stained with the blood of the
dancing saint, the shawl brought
love to a waiting senorita.
