No one would have suspected that
Jack had been on the shelf that long.
First of all, he had good control-con-siderlng
his lack of practice, and sec
ond of all, his endurance and strength
apparently had not been impaired. He
was touched up for eight hits,, to be
sure, but they were well scattered ex
cept in one Inning,' and for the most
part were made off John's slow curve,
with which he was experimenting a lit
tle. When runs threatened he cut that
out and by tightening up brushed th'j
runs away from the plate except when
three hits following a base on balls
were good for one tally. .

New York, Sept. 23. By bueaking
even with the Giants in yesterday's
double header, Chicago's Cubs brought
one day nearer their approaching wed

men copped out the first game, 5 to 1,
to make sure of It. The Giants evened
up by making a carbon copy of that
score and reversing it in the second
game.
John Pfiester qualified as a coming
back champion by pitching the Cubs to
their victory in a manner which gave
great satisfaction to his manager and
comrades, besides indicating he may be
of more than passing importance in the
big doings of early winter. Pfiester
had not hurled a game since the last

MAROON DEFEAT
Bloomington, Ind., Sept. 23. Believ
ing Indiana this year has a better
chance than ever before of winning
from Chicago, Coach Jimmy Sheldon is
shooting his crimson football squad
through two practices each day and the j
men are taking lipoid of the work with
a vim.
"Beat Chicago" is again the Indiana
slogan. It has been the Indiana slogan
for several seasons, and the result has
been the same, a disaster on the Mid
way. The feeling here is that Chicago
Is weak, while Indiana is unusually
strong and no effort Is to be spared to
get the team in shape for the game on
Oct. 8.
Coach Sheldon will make no predic
tions, but returned to Indiana this faH
to coach for the last time because of
the fact that he believes he has a
chance of winning over the Maroons.

TOU NOT A
FOUR OF THE LEADING SOUTHPAW
PITCHERS IN THE BIG LEAGUES
New York, Sept. 23. Left hand pitchers, are in great demand in fat, several big league clubs are willing to
give all kinds of money for crack young southpaw twirlers. Scouts who have traveled around tne smaller circuits
say that promising left hand pitchers are scarcer than ever before in the history of the game. They, point to the
fact that when such a tight wad as Connie Mack pays $12,000 for a left handpltcher there must be a" scarcity of ma
terial. Mack is reported as having paid theamount named to Baltimore for Lafty Russell. Looking over the south
paws in the big leagues, one finds that there is no one twirler standing out as did Rube Waddell when he was at
his best. Greater New York has three good left banders Jim Vaughn of tha Highlanders, George Wiltse of the
Giants and Nap Rucker of the Superbas. They are three of the best in ' the country, but haven't the class
Waddell had when he was In his prime. Leifield of the Pirates has shown lots of first class work, but has a tend
ency toward being erratic. Sallee of the St. Louis Nationals has all the wrinkles of pitching, but his habits do not
conduce to success and interfere with his innate skill. Doc White of the Chicago White Sox Is one of the best. So
are Karger of Boston, Pfiester of the Cubs and Plank of Philadelphia. Plank, White and WiUse are conspicuous not
only for good service, but for long service. Washington has a good one In Gray, and Johnny-Lush of the Cardi
nals and Mattern of the Bostons are good men who would be still better with stronger teams behind them. Mat
torn is a rara avis in a way, a spitball southpaw. Mitchell of the Clevelands is a newcomer and very promising.
Krause of Philadelphia, the left hander sensation of last year, has not repeated his success this year, but may come
back. Try to pick out the best left hand pitchter in the big leagues today and you will find yourself wondering
over a list of a dozen and wavering as to which Is the tiptopper.
times In the west. This is Nelson's first
fight since he was defeated by Ad Wol-
TIME9 I gast. The fighters wlll not attempt to
make the lightweight limit. Nelson
weighs 157 pounds. Dale is at his best
at 135 pounds.
PUG SUES FIGHT CLUB.
Jack Goldswaln. the English light
weight, who was disqualified for hold- J
ing in a contest last spring before the ',
National Sporting club, has sued the
club for $500, which he claims was due
him for taking part in tne contest. He
has been blacklisted by the club and
will never get another match at that
place. In court the Judge decided that
he was not entitled to any money.
