'Pitcher' With Mechanical Arm
Ready for Any Iron-Man Stint
By Brian Bell, Jr.
The machine—all wound up—
came down with its mechanical
arm and zipped a strike past the
man at the plate.
“Overhand Joe,”-a machine that
is novel because it throws base
balls with a mechanical arm in
a very human motion as dis
tinguished from ordinary mechan
ical pitchers, had taken the
mound.
Its “iron-man” stint was a pre
liminary to the Camp Lejeune
Fort Myer baseball game at the
Arlington military base yesterday
and the demonstration made a
hit—something pitchers don't do
very often.
Nats Inspect Machine.
Edward B. Eynon, the Nats’
secretary, was inspecting the ma
chine for the Washington club;
watuiici ivuuiwcy vjaaocu cuiu vyui
fielder Sherry Robertson hit
against “Overhand Joe”—so did
ex-big leaguers Sam Calderon,
Danney O’Connell and Johnny
Antonelli, now starring for the
Fort Myer nine—and even mem
bers of Congress got in the act.
A dozen Congressmen from the
Republican and Democratic base
ball teams who are to play an
exhibition game at Griffith Sta
dium May 25 took their cuts.
They didn’t do so uvell against
the machine, but said it was much
easier meeting the mechanical
arm's fast ball than the "curves”
they’re used to facing on Capitol
Hill.
Eynon was pleased with the ex
hibition. “The machine is very
much like the one we now use
in spring practice,” he said, “but
the distinct advantage with this
lone is it doesn’t need an operator.
Our machine has to have some
one stand beside it and regulate
it. but you can plug thi? one in
off the field, run an extension
|cord out and leave it alone.”
More Accurate, Grasso Says.
Grasso thought the machine was
more -accurate than the one he
faced in Florida. “It comes right
in there with the ball,” the Nats
catcher commented. “It should be
very helpful for clubs that don’t
have a good many batting prac
tice pitchers.”
The machine was invented by
Albert Emeleon, a Flqrham Park,
N. J., mechanical engineer. He
has been working on it for several
years- and his latest model will
throw a fast one up to 100 miles
an hour, toss a mean curv^, al
though control, as with many
curveballers, is still a problem, and
hurls 300 balls without tiring
(when its magazine has to be
refilled).
The Washington syndicate of
I. Q. Baseball Machine Corp. is
planning not only to try and in
terest baseball teams with Its
product, but to set them up in
amusement parks, recreational
centers and along-the-road bat
ting ranges.
“Overhand Joe” may be the an
swer to a manager’s prayer. He
is literally an "ironman” and he
won’t ever be a holdout.
St. James CYO Stages Meet
The St. James CYO of Falls
Church will hold its annual track
and field meet at 1 p.m., Satur
day, on the St. James Church
athletic field with Lawrence Laing
as meet chairman.

Big Ten to Settle Issue
I
Over Rose Bowl Pact
In Parley Next Week
By the Associated Press
CHICAGO, May 17. —Final
plans were announced today foi
next week’s important Big 'ftr
meeting which will decide wheth
er the conference will continuf
to send football teams to tht
Rose Bowl.
The three-day spring meeting
will be held in suburban Evanstor
May 23-26.
Attending will be the confer
ence faculty representatives, ath
letic directors, head football
coaches, athletic publicity direc
tors, ticket managers and track
fencing, gymnastics and swim
ming coaches.
.me Kose bowi decision will be
made at joint meetings of the
faculty representatives and ath
letic directors May 24 and 25
Conference Commissioner Ken
neth L. Wilson said, “I expect
the matter to be determined
some time May 24.”
Wisconsin Creates Hitch.
Similar meetings which ended
March 18 resulted in p. vote to
renew the agreement with the
Pacific Coast Conference, which
ended last New Year’s Day after
a five-year run. All five Rose
Bowl games were won by Big Ten
teams.
It was decided at the March
meeting that the Rose Bowl pact
would be continued either on its
present basis, which limits ap
pearances at Pasadena of any one
Big Ten team to once in three
years, or on a once-in-two-years
basis.
The proposal then was sub -
mitted to the governing faculty
bodies at each member school.
Wisconsin recently announced
it had rejected renewal on any
basis. This automatically forced
the faculty representatives and
athletic directors to reconsider
their decision to continue the
ffcose Bowl agreement.
Majority Vote To Decide.
At the May 24-25 meetings, a
majority vote either way will de
cide the issue. If a renewal is
voted it is effective immediately
and is binding on all Big Ten
schools.
The meeting also will allow
track, swimming, fencing and
gymnastic coaches to draw sched
ules for next season. Footbaii
coaches are expected to discuss
t.hpir nlnn to iisp flvp nffirinlc in
their 1951 games. '
In conjunction with the meet
ings, three Big Ten champion
ships—golf, tennis, and track—
will be decided in meets at North
western University.
