They are control, to hold runners on bases, nd to pitch without putting every- | thing on the ball. Mitchell says the vhen the batter i e pitcher knows | | going to hit and! \that Dick Rudolph can call the turn} |on the hitter every time by the way | he tightens up on the bat. Most ballplayers will be shy of this statement. Rudolph has never been | | credited with saying he could tell that batter was going to swing or pass Pitchers Save Themselves from Slipping by Using Bra Addie Joss, Matthewson and Dick Ru up the ball and the smartest pitchers have never made such claims, The fact is, that the batter is up there set to hit anything he likes and just because he may have decided to pass one up, is no reason why he would not sWing if the ball is grooved for him. ; Rudolph, like.others, studies batters, and knows what tNey can hit and what ; fools them. Not having great strength or excessive speed Rudolph must know his batters to be successful. In this Rudolph is only following a practice started probably by .Addie Joss, who made himself the leading pitcher in the American league for years by studying batters and knowing what to pitch them without exerting himself to the limit. Pitchers with great sterngth and ter- tific speed are not forced to resort to his method, although the strongest of them find themselves more effective by a systematic study of opponents. Pitchers of the typeof Walter John- son and Alexander’can win most of their games by their terrific ‘speed and their sharp breaking curves. Matthewson won success by study- ing batters. He was one of the great- est exponents of this style of pitching. Cy Young hung on in the big show for years because he knew what to feed batters. Dusty Rhodes was one of the few pitchers who claimed to have a system in making batsmen hit certain ways. He contended certain kinds of pitching resulted in mathematical angles when the bat struck the ball and that he could determine before the ball was pitched whether it: would be hit in the air or on the ground, But although Rhodes’ theory scemed Is My Weather Prophet. can tell stormy weather days off by the twingesin my shou!- ders and knées.

The proximity of war with the pos | sibility of voluntec e und even, as a final result, ¢ ption, natu- rally sugge: he effect it would have on sport. War conditions in America could not Wary much from those in the bel- ligerent European countries, and tak- ing these as an example, amateur and professional sport: would practically be suspended until the end of the war. In case of conscription, athletes, am- ateur and professional, between 18 and 30, would be drafted into the serv- ice. This would practically take every athlete of prominence in all branches of sport. Even should they escape conscrip- tion, the idea of a lot of husky, train- ed:to-the-minute men engaging in baseball or like amusements would be so unpopular that it would not be tol- erated—to say nothing of patronized. There are practically no American precedents to go by in considering the qquestion. During the Civil war, WAR PUT END TO SPORT=-PUBLIG WOULD NOT TOLERATE GAMES IF MEN WERE NEEDED jthe Spanish war, but that war was over in a few months and was not generally taken very seriously. If war should come patriotism would ep baseball, boxing, football and kindred sports before it. Already baseball is preparing for such an eventuality. In some of the minor leagues magnates are already planning to close their parks for a season in case of war and Ban John- son, president of the American league. is now mapping out a course should; there be a call to the colors. Also in such a contingency it will be interesting to watch the rise in the popularity of boxing with its Darcys., its Badouts, its Welshes and its other patriotic representatives. On the other hand, indications ear- ly point to a general enlistment of col- lege athletes. Princeton was the first to the front with the announcement that military companies would be formed there for active duty. Little Wabash college, in Indiana, has agreed to send a com- pany. Many schools have compulsory the major sports had not reached the prominence they hold today. Baseball was practically unknown, football was not invented until several years later, golf and tennis had not obtained prom- | inence, boxing matches were few and frowned on by law. « Of course, there is the precedent of training for first and second-year stud- ents.
