That peculiar niche in baseball af: fairs which is filled by what are known as iron men is one that has had few -ccupants. The iron men of note, reel iron men, have been few and far between. THe term is ap- plied only to pitchers, and means those pitchers whose constitutions are sufficiently strong to permit them to do more work in the box than most Joe McGinnity. twirlers could stand. Unusual capao- Ity for work and exceptional pitch- Ing ability are attributes of the iron men of the mound. ‘The first pitcher to whom the term was applied was Joe McGinnity, and: he came into it not so much because of the frequency with which he pitched as his capacity -for double, headers. To this day he goes Into the box often, and few pitchers have worn so well. There are two other leading ex- ponents of the iron man business. One is Ed Walsh of the White Sox, the most noted of the three, and the other is Jack Coombs. Coombs isn’t pitching as frequently as he did last year, but his capacity for work, coupled with his skill as & boxman, tided Connie Mack and the Athletics over many & rough spot and pulled out many & game in which some other pitcher had wobbled. Coombs, like Walsh, could stand being hurled into the breach many a time beyond the ordinary, and then his expertness on the peak did the rest. Walsh probably has pitched In more games a year for the length of time he has been in the game than any other pitcher baseball has known. It was predicted half a dozen years ago that the inordinate wear and tear would get him, but he is still at it, and as effective, if not as strong, as ever. He is a spitball pitcher too, another thing supposed to be very trying, but he contends that with him that form of delivery is no more ex- acting on the arm than any other way of pitching. Ty Cobb’s Latest Feat. Single-handed and without being charged with a time at bat, Ty Cobb scored a run the other day. He walked, stole second, went to third on a muffed throw and tallled when a low throw escaped the third baseman. In other words, he kept.on running. Slugger Zinn Is Traded.

Cans 'Em by Wholesale. The Muscatine club of the Central association has released Manager William F. Krieg and five players, and has signed as manager Joe Wall, first baseman of the New York team of the defunct United States league.

Hendrix of the Pirntes is not only pitehing good ball, but he is hitting right along with it. Jeft Tesreau's first name isn't Jeff. It's Charles; but that doesn’t make any difference in his pitching. New Yorkers say the attendance at the Polo grounds this season has av- eraged about 10,000. Not so bad. Pitcher Walker, a Washington sem! pro player, has been turned loose by the Naps. He couldn’t stand the pace. The Chicago Americans will give Pitcher Harry Smith’ of the Lincoln Western league club a tryout nexi spring. President McAleer of the Red Sox says his purse and trading blocks are closed for this season. He's going to stand pat. Pitcher Walker of Bristol, who it to get a trlal with Brooklyn, was pitching amateur ball a year ago. His rige has been rapid. Garry Herrmann .is .still .talking about trading some of his ball players, but the trouble is he cannot find any- ‘one to make the trade with. Manager Holmes of Sioux City thinks he has a find in Lynch, secured from the Pacific Coast. He has done great work as a substitute for Dick Breen and before going lame was & whirlwind in the outfield. PRAISE FOR BASEBALL University of Nebraska Peda. gogue Lauds National Game. Professional Dlamond Pastime Only One That Appeals to Prof. George Howard—*“Rooting” s Mental Perversion. Professional baseball carries off the palm as king of sports, a chief agent of American democracy, and a moral uplifter, according to the decision stated by Prof. George Elliot Howard, the University of Nebraska authority, in an article in the American Journal of Sociology, published .at the Unil- versity of Chicago. The educator gives the pastime a clean bill of health ahead of the recreations indulged in by the colleges of the land. Prof. Howard makes a vigorus at- tack upon intercollegiate athlefes, de- claring them an unmixed evil, and recommending that they be aban. || doned. He declares that college ath- letics spectacles lower the moral tone of the spectator’s emotions, destroy the most important business of the Institutions and threaten to bring on other evils more serious. “Under existing conditions,” he de clares, “the spectator crowd at an in- tercollegiate football contest fosters ldeals much lower than those suggest. ed by a game of professional base- ball.” In handing the glory to baseball end criticizing other sports, Prof. Howard writes: “Psychologically, for instance, the great American game of baseball is a powerful democratic agent. Vast crowds of both sexes and of all ages, persons of every economic, social, re- | £ ligious or intellectual class touch _| ehoulders. They shout, thrill and ges- ture in sympathy. They are just hu- man beings, with the differentials of rank or vocation laid aside. “The chief menace to the general n8e of recreation activities comes from the extraordinary vogue of college ath- | @ letic spectators. The primary business of the student is, or ought to be, to study. Naturally, he is inactive dur- Ing a third or more of the day. There Is plenty of time left for restful rec- reative exercise if it be made use of. But the student cannot keep his bodi- ly and mental energy up to the mark by exercising vicariously. The vi- carious play of the team, however fas- cinating, does not exercise the spectw tor’s muscles. “It is imperative that college author- Itles recognize the function of recre- ation. At whatever cost for facilities, every student should be physically as well as mentally educated, and the most efficient mental, even moral, edu- cation depends on physical education. Moreover, play for all is the best form of educational recreation. “A similar example of mental per- version, an absurd and immoral cus- tom tenaciously held fast in mob mind, has its genesis in the partisan real of athletic spectator crowds. I refer to the practice of organized cheering known in colege ‘argot’ as ‘rooting.’ From every aspect it is bad. Morally it stands on the level of tha ‘toe hold,’ the card trick, the stuffed ballot box, tainted news of the cam- paign canard and, like the canard, it Is apt to prove a ‘boomerang.’ " About Mirrors.
