‘Big Ed’ Walsh Is in a Class
By Himself as Mound Artist
Ry W. J. Mcßeth.
NEW YORK. May 2<t. —A man.
no matter in «hat walk of
lift, who can upset tradition
al laws of nature is worthy at
least of more than passing tegard
<>ne who tan c> «>n doing it year
after year, should be an object of
universal wonder. As -nth ••! us
introduce Ed Walsh, the mainstay
of the <*hi> ago American league
club s pitching''■•taff.
Walsh is one of the most won
derful pitchers that the game ha
etc. dcvebqied Should he become
permanently crippled tomorrow, so
crippled that he could never ogatn
wield the little whip sphere
through which he gained his fame,
this remarkable athlete would pass
down through history as one of the
great masters of his art His name
would be linked w ith those of Chris
ty Mathewson and Cy Young men
who cheated time and conserved
their cunning through twice the
span of an ordinary pastfmer s
day of major league usefulness.
In point of years of .service. Ed
Walsh has a long way to go to
equal th< unprecedented recoil'of
Ro'tnn's grand old man Compared
even with Mathewson. tim White
Sox marvel is still confronted with
several years in which he must de
liver his present puzzling brand.
Yet the fellow seem- equal to the
task Hi is "i try hit a- good at
this writing as at any time in his
brilliant career, and there are
those who hailed him three seasons
back i- Cue most effective and ca
pable loss, i in the game.
Worked in 9 of 18 Games,
.lust look what this veteran is
doing for Callahan's White Sox.
Single-handed, he put Chicago's
pennon out to the front from the
seasons getaway. Os the first
eighteen games played. Walsh
worked in nine Ho didn't pitch
the full time in each, but those lie
didn't start wire the ones that
really proved the hardest teats. Ho
was called upon to save the day i
when «ome stablemate w avert'd.
Therein lies Walsh's great value
Sime iiiii:, Walsh had pitched
practically a third of all the White
Sox gam, s Fifty games in a sea
son is nothing for him He'll turn j
off that many on his own hook
and finish half as many more for
less foimnati mates He won a
‘pennant and .< world's champion
ship for the White Sox in 1906.
Ho won a city series from the t’ubs
List fall. No matter what sort of
a club may be behind him. Walsh
is always up among the leading I
pitchers of the majen leagues. _
When his team finishes at all close
to the leaders, it is safe betting
that Walsh is the leading pitcher
of his company, m mighty , lose to
it. It takes a near approach to
shut-out ball to stop this won
derful tosser m his average game.

ings in this city last December the
Old Roman declared that he had
just one player that he could not
be induced to part with at any
cost. "Walsh " said Comiskey.
"has done too much for my club
to become the subject of a trade.
Os course, I couldn’t trade him if I
wished. My city wouldn’t stand
it. I might as well lock the gates
as to part with him. But. senti
ment aside there is not a player
in the world for whom I would
swap Walsh no. not even the
wonderful Ty Cobb I consider
Walsh today as great as Cobb He
is a pitching staff in himself. I
can not say that he is the great
est player of history I can and
do say that he is the greatest pitch
er of history New York will dis
agree with me on that score. I
do not for a minute lose sight of
Mathewson. But great as Matty
IS. 1 believe Walsh greater.''
In many respects the eases of
Mathewson and Walsh are quite
similar. For years Matty upheld
the pitching burdens of the Giants
on his own broad shoulders. He
not only did his share, his regular
turn, but served as relief man in
every important crisis, just as
Walsh has done and is still doing.
But never in the heyday of his ca
reer was the illustrious Mathewson
such an "iron man" as Ed Walsh.
Every time Walsh wavers the
least little bit. fandom prepares for
his funeral, "He's gone at last," is
w hispered "He could not possibly
stand up under such a strain of
overwork." But each time the mar
vel comes back stronger than ever.
Today he stands in a (lass all by
himself.

club is Eston Mansfield. He has been working steadily for the
past Imo months, and is rapidly getting in trim. He was a win

is likely to, lake some big events this year. He devotes more
time to tennis than some of his local rivals, and is likely to
run awav with them before the season is over.

GEORGIA FOOTBALL TEAM
WILL START WORK EARLY
ATHENS. GA.. Maq 20.—The Univer
sity of Georgia football team may be
railed together earlier this fall than
ever a Southern team was before. The
athletic authorities are planning now
to get the men together by the middle of
August, if not earlier. It is hoped that
they can be assembled at the summer
home of Roh McWhorter. stat back of
the team, tor a month of combined out
ing and preliminary work before the
real practice is taken up. If this is
done Coach W. A. Cunningham will
have a world of time for going over the
rules, the plays and the possibilities of
1912 football and will be able to get
through with most of the detail work
that usually clutters up the early part
of the season.
Georgias football prospects have
probably never beep better. But three
members of last year's great team will
bt graduated this spring And as there
were more good substitutes last fall
than ever Georgia had before it is cet
tain that Coach Cunningham will have
little trouble in filling the gaps.

Las Vegas 6,000 Feet High.
The battleground, it should be re
membered. is over 6.000 feet above
sea level, considerably higher than
was the arena at Reno, where John
son gained a clear title to the
championship nearly two years
ago. This makes the air mighty
thin and unless a man's lungs and
heart are in excellent shape and
thoroughly acclimated he is apt to
have trouble in a long encounter.
Johnson hasn't tried himself out
here very severely, but thinks he
has done enough to prove to him
self that his wind will be all fight.
"I'm one of those things what is
is they call them? Oh. yes: I'm im
mune to the effects of high alti
tudes." Johnson said last night
when I asked him what he thought
would be the effect on him of the
New Mexico air that surrounds the
Curley arena in such a thin layer.
Has a Wonderful Heart.
