HTTHKI
C LEVELAND, May 22.—“Fred
Falkenberg has a better fade
away ball than Christy Mathew-
>n Left-handed batters can hit
Mathewson but And It almost impos-
i>le to get even a single off Falk-
< nb€ rg.**
Such Is the declaration made by
Frank Baker, home-run hitter ex-
mordlnary and hero of the
..id's series of 1911. Baker made
i is ball history when he hit Math-
* w son for four bases in one of the
games between the Athletics and
<liants for the world’s championship.
* He batted against Mathewson in
hree games of that memorable series.
He has made the work of opposing
iterrers a study. For that reason.
i'j«. comparison of the two most
fur-mis exponents of the fadeaway
a iv or great value.
“Mclnnis and I were talking about
Falkenberg in our room the other
night,” Baker continued. “Stuffy said
In- believed a right-hander could hit
i Falkenberg easier than a left-hander
and 1 believe he is right. To tell
the truth, I would like to see how-
many hits a team composed entirely
, f left-handed batters would make oft
Fred. I’ll bet he would come mighty
close to pitching a nc-hit game."
Ira Thomas, member of Connie
Mack’s famous strategy board, is an
other admirer of Falkenberg.
I have not batted against Fred
this year,’* says Thomas, “but from
observation, I would say he has the
best fadeaway delivery ever pitched.
Matty’s fadeaway comes up to the
batter rather slow. He works it as a
change of pace. Falkenberg throws
his fast ball and fadeaway with the
same motion. The batter does not
know which it is until he swings and
misses. The fadeaway comes up much
faster than Matty’s fadeaway, and
for that reason is harder to hit. Fred
Is also the owner of more speed than
Matty now has. I would rate Fred
as one of the five best pitchers in
the country.”
Baker’s intimation that left-hand
ed batters in particular find Falken
berg a puzzle is correct. Falkenberg
has pitched and won seven games. In
one of those games he was not right,
the contest at Chicago when the mer
cury registered about 36 and Fred
could not get warmed up until he
had pitched to at least one batter in
each inning. As a result, the lead-
nflf man in each round, generally a
left-handed batter, was greeting Fred
with a hit.
Excluding this one game, Fred has
held the left-handed batters to 11 hils
in 96 times at bat, an average of
/ 114. Counting the Chicago game
he has held the portside sluggers to
18 hits in 109 times at bat, an aver
age of .165. For a right-handed
pitcher this is a phenomenal record.
JOE MANDOT’S RIB WAS
BROKEN IN SECOND ROUND
LOS ANGELES, May 22.— Joe Mandot
will not fight again for many months.
He will spend that time getting over
his encounter with Bud Anderson, who
knocked him out at the Vernon arena.
Fight fans learned to-day for the first
time the terrific handicap under which
Joe fought. In he second round Ander
son fractured one of Mandot’s ribs, mak
ing Joe’s famous left useless during the
remaining ten rounds.
Mandot is going to the mountains
and will not enter the ring for six
months. He has called off all future
dates.

COLUMN*
T OM SHARKEY, who aspired to
be heavyweight champion of the
world before he became the
keeper of a public house and tips
the scales at 225 pounds, wouldn't ad
mit that he had been knocked out by
a 120-pounder, as published in the
New York papers the other day.
But he bought wine!
Sharkey was acting cashier in his
saloon when a reporter asked him:
’How about that story that you
were knocked out, Tom?”
Tom gave a right hook and left
jab at the cash register, rang up $2.50
and called:
"Bring us a quart of wine!”
The wine was brought and Sharkey
again was asked about the report
that he was, knocked out.
"By that skinny greezer?” he ex
claimed. "Say, did you ever see a
picture of my babies?” and he dragged
down a photograph of four horses
and added:
'These are my babies."
"But how about that knockout,
Tom?”
Strawberries Are Fine, Too.
"Say, you ought to see my straw
berry patch at Sheepshead Bay,” he
said, ignoring the question. “I’m go
ing to get 150 quarts this summer.”
’But how about the knocko.ut?” the
reporter persisted.
'Pretty good wine, that." the heavy
weight suggested. “Don’t often come
across like that.”
"But the knockout?”
"Let’s have another bottle on me,”
Sharkey said, still ignoring the ques
tion. “Won't you have another?
Well, let me tell you, son, I’m think
ing of going back into the fighting
business. I’m as good as ever and
a real white hope.”
"But did 'Yellow' knock you out?”
"It’s a shame you won’t have an
other bottle on the house. Good
stuff it is, loo,” and pointing to a
painting of himself in fighting togs
Sharkey remarked:
“That’s the way a man should look
in the ring.”
Then he gave the cash register an
other wallop and rang up the second
bottle of wine.
And the reporter fled.
According to the story about the
knockout Sharkey was telling friends
of his pugilistic career in the rear
room of his saloon in East Four
teenth Street.
“Yellow” Puts Him Out.
He got to his fight' with Fitzsim
mons when he came out second boar,
and banging his big fist on the table,
shouted:
“I can lick any man between Four
teenth Street and the Battery!”
"You couldn't lick a postage
stamp.” came from George Davis,
known as “Yellow, the Newsboy."
That statement was too much for
Sharkey, and he challenged Davis, a
featherweight, to fight.
The men. so the stofy ran, .peeiert
off their coats and in a ring formed
of chairs they began sparring. Sud
denly Davis delivered a vicious kick,
which caught Sharkey in the pit of
the stomach. He weht down in a
heap and stayed down. He was
knocked out.
The police came, but the fighter
said he didn’t need medical attention
He had an awful headache.

I ONG ago, when there was a rur-
L> n er on second. It was a favcril,
diversion with Mike Kelly and Buck
Ewing to let the ball slide through
their paws, turn frantically 'round,
and give a thrilling imitation of a
maddened catcher pursuing a passed
ball The runner, with a loud t acklc
nf joy would immediately light out
for third, whereupon the catcher,
calmlv picking up the ball from he-
hind his heel, would chuck to the
waiting third sacker for a certain'
killing. Tricks of that kind were
often put over in those ancient da vs
—but the modern catchers never
c-eem to think of such devices.

CTATISTIUIANS <>!' athletics at
D Princeton University hav» entered
a claim for .1. M Mann. '76, as tile
discoverer of the art of curve pitch
ing:. According to baseball lore avail
able at Princeton, Mann was the star
pitcher of the college team known
as the Nassau nine .at that time.
During the fall of 1874 Mann pitched
several games in one week and hie
peculiar delivery wore the skin from
the tip of his fingers. - In the final
contest of the week he was obliged
to play third base. Late in the game
he was forced to relieve the pitcher
in order to save the game. Owing
to the tender condition of his fingers
Mann was obliged to throw the ball
with little or no grip. He immediate
ly noticed that his delivery was break
ing in an odd manner, which caused
opposing batters to strike out. Dur
ing the winter months he continued
to experiment and in the spring blos
somed out as a pitcher with a real
otftdtirve at his command.
* * *
PDDIE A INSMITH is the only
catcher of recent years to be
credited with a putout at first base.
The Washington first sacker made the
putout at St. Louis, and it goes to
him because he was the only man on
two ball clubs who was wis*e to what
was going on.
Agnew was at bat and hit the ball.
It hit his foot and rolled in fair ter
ritory to Laporte at third. Agnew
did not run but sat down and rubbed
his foot. Laporte did not throw.
Finally he chucked the ball to Schae
fer who was playing first. Herman
stood still with the ball in his hand
and did not touch first.
Ainsmith, the only man besides the
umpires who realized that Agnew had
hit a fair ball, walked down to first,
took the ball from Schaefer and
stepped on the bag. Umpire Fergu
son called Agnew out. The play went
Laporte to Schaefer to Ainsmith.

Work of Local Huriers Keeps Race Exciting

Crackers Win Games; Pitchers Toss Them Off
By Percy H. Whiting.
A H yes, as we said before: If
the Atlanta pitchers were even
moderately effective, the othir
Dixie League clubs would have .3
take out an Injunction to win a game
from the Crackers
Yes. indeed—IF THEY WERE.
But they AREN’T.
It really was accommodating of the
Cracker huriers to turn out a little
worse than everybody expected. It
cheers up the race so.
* * *
MOW take this Mobile team, which
is here for three battles with
the Crackers. It’s largely a lobster
team, outside of the slab men and
one awful slugger. But the huriers
have been goiig good and with a lit
tle support they have won an awful
lot of games.
The Gulls have reached Atlanta
with a five and a half game lead
over tne Crackers. The coming se
ries can’t pull them out of first
place even if the Crackers make a
clean sweep of it. But then it can
warp their lead an awful lot.
Jf the Atlanta pitchers go even
fairly well it’s a cinch—but you can’t
tell.
* * *
T AKE yesterday’s game, which the
Crackers failed to take, 7 to 5.
Bill Smith eased Pitcher Dent into
the bickering. For six innings he
held the Memphis team runless. An3
while he was doing it the busy little
Crackers presented him with a com
fortable five run lead.
Now any pitcher who kisses off a
lead of five runs has something the
matter with the old throwing rnt h-
anism—something blamed scrio -.
And that’s just what Dent did in the
seventh. The first three men wno
faced him sjigled. Joe Agler then
contributed an error. After whi h
came a three bagger and a single.
* * *
O F course this .does not necessi-
rily prove that Dent will not To,
But it is a strong indication that he’ll
have to cheer uj. a lot his next time
out. A pitcher who can’t win with a
five run lead is considerably to the
bad.
Gilbert Price was sent in after the
game was gone. He walked the first
two men who faced him, let the next
single and then escaped with only one
run against him.
Parsons started for the Turtles und
after losing the game had it hand ' J
back to him on the bats of his team
mates. With a pinch on in the ninth
Kissinger was sent m.
The Crackers made an awful effort
to rout Kissinger. Joe Dunn got <*n
the coaching line and called him “old
monkey face" so ,‘oud and vigorously
that Umpire Hart canned him.
Despite all the efforts to rattle him
Kissinger landed Smith and Bisiand.
Then Joe Agler strode out, kicked
the bats into a disorderly pile, picked
out one at random, stalked to the
plate and atoned for his error with :t
beautiful two bagger.
This left the fate of the series rest-
I ing between Graham and Kissinger,
land the Rube got the better of the
argument, forcing Pat to pop a weak
IN any close ball game that Mem-
* phis team needs a guide. They
have pulled some ferocious bones at
various times in the series, hut Par
sons nearly uncorked tBe prize.
With the bases full of Crackers
Wednesday Alperman grounded to
him. And Parsons started to throw
TO FIRST.
It was only the wild shrieks of his
teammates. "Throw it home, throw it
home.” that saved him from making
a miscalculation that would have
been a classic.

\U KDNKSDAY was Ad Men's Day

AS an old family friend we again

erything else in the world poking up
miserable pops.

B OSTON, May 22.—With their sea
son just about one-fifth finished
the world’s champion Red Sox
have played before about a quarter
of a million spectators. If the team
returns to anything like its old form
it should have no difficulty in keeping
up thia attendance throughout the
season. That would mean a total At
tendance for the year of about one
million and a quarter.
Should the Sot gradually improve
until they finally strike their old gait,
thereby getting actually into another
pennant race in the final month or
two of the season, this attendance
would jump tremendously. A close
finish throughout the final weeks of
the season would mean crowds of
enormous size day after day, and the
figure would go beyond a million and
a half.
So you see the winning of the
championship of the world in baseball
means very much moLe than the re
ceipts of the year in which the title
is taken. It means greater profits
the succeeding year, even if the team
falls behind its standard of the tri
umphant season. i
A total attendance of a'million and
a quarter means receipts of more
than three-quarters of a million dol
lars. A million and a half will leave
about $900,000 at the gate.
The Red Sox will receive consider
ably more than half of the total -e-
ceihts, because their home crowds
will be greater than those on foreign
fields.
It is safe to predict that the Red
Sox this year, not considering the
possibility of a world series, will
rrjake a greater profit than they did
last year when a world series and its
net gain of about $90,000 left about
a quarter of a million dollrs “velvet”
in the club treasury.
The group of men who invested in
a h^lf interest in the Red Sox a year
ago last winter—among them James
R. 'Mo A leer, Robert B. McRoy, C. M.
Randall, of Chicago. Jake Stahl. Ban
Johnson (presumably) and some of
their friendsi—made nearly enough
profit last year to return them their
investment. **
Of course all the profits were not
divided. But they stand to the own
ers' credit, neverthiess. So what the
club makes this year will be prin
cipally “velvet” to the men mentioned
above who own one-half, and to the
Taylor interests, who hold title to
Fenway Park and a half interest in
the club.
This is the reason why the mag
nates who control the world’s cham
pions are not stricken with worry
over the slump of the club. Of course,
they want to win again, both for the
increased profits that another victory
would bring, and for the sake of
good sportsmanship, as well. But

Let S. S. S. Rid You of All Blood
Disorders.
If you are down with rheumatism,
rf you aneeze, feel chilled, are choked
with catarrh, have a cough, or your
akin is pimpled and irritated with
rash, eczema, or any other blood dis
order. juat remember that almost all
the ills of life come from impure
blood. And you can easily give your
blood a good, thorough cleansing, a
bath, by using 8. S. a. There ts no
need for any one to be despondent
over the Illness of blood impurities.
No matter hew badly they attack the
system, or how unsightly beoomes
the akin, Just remember there is one
ingredient in S. S. 8. that so stimu
lates the cellular tissues throughout
the body that each part selects its
own essential nutriment from the
blood.
This means that all decay, all
breaking down of the tissues, Is
checked and repair work begins
S. 8. S. has such a specific influence
on all local cells as to preserve their
mutual welfare and afford a proper
relative assistance to each other
More attention is being given to con
structive medicine than ever before,
and 8. S. 8. is the highest achieve
ment in this line. For many years
i / people relied upon mercury, iodide of
( potash, arsenic, ‘ physics,’ cathartics
and “dope" as remedies for blood
sickness, but now the pure, vegetable
8. 8. 8. is their safeguard.
You can get S. S. 8. in any drug
store, but Insist upon having it. And
you should take no chance by permit
ting any oqe to recommend a substi
tute And if your blood condition is
such that you would like to consult a
