The batter is waiting’ patiently for these words of wisdom from Murphy. The moment Danny flashes the wire. less méssage to him he shifts his po- sition; in order that he may be in better position to hit the style of pitching that is on the way. It is a distinct advantage to the hat- ter. It asually means that he can add at least 30 per cent to his batting ave: age if he knows what is’ coming. This is evident by making compari- rtain then with swe other club. All Pitchers Are Easy One day last summer I was umpir- jteam. Three of us were officiating, and in this particulars game I was stationed at third base where the um- pire has little to do other than stand around. Waite Hoyt, one of the great- business, was T heard Mur- marked: “Don’t make any mistakes, Danny, There is of course always a danger of injury, if Murphy, would make a mistake, tell THE BISMARCK imnov DANNY MURPHY IS ‘THE MARCONI OF BASEBALL (“College Chatter | 3 ce st e the batter a curve was coming and then have the pitcher throw a fast! renter, one. , “Not today,” he answered. “It is as easy to get then with Hoyt as any one. However, he has so much stuff the boys have trouble hitting it, even when the¥ kriow what is coming.” Makes a Careful Study 1 asked Danny how ‘he did it. He explained his methods. They seemed easy after I had gotten the key. He showed how ‘Hoyt always held the ball a trifle differently in throwing the curve instead of the fast one. The moment Hoyt gets up over his head, he tips off his stuff. It is then time enough for Murphy to flash it tio the batte-. “In all my. experience,” said Mur. phy,” .§ don’t believe I have seep a dozen pitchers who throw the various deliveries, without a ‘noticeable dif- ference. It seems a physical impos sibility for most of thent not to have some tell-tale motion. I;watch every pitcher carefully,“and if he has a weakness in his delivery I get it. The rest. is easy.” American ‘League pitchers _will frankly admit that when . pitching against the Athletics, they realize every ball is being tipped off and yet they are unable to conceal what ia coming. Murphy certainly is a won- der. ®t NOTRE DAME..COACH IS OPTIMISTIC, FOR 1922 If you were’ a football coach, and you lost thirteen of your first string players, you probably would be dis- couraged over the outlook for next year, That -is the plight that Coach Rockne of Notre Dame finds himself in. . Rockne, however, is far from dis- couraged. He is a most optimisth cuss. .As a matter of fact, he Trankly ven- tures the opinion that he will. lead a team eastward that will be as strong as his great eleven of 1921, which ran all over the Army. | Losing thirteen first string players would cause most coaches to order thatthe schedule be: lightened. . On the | contrary, Notre Dame will have as difficult a schedule next..season as :in 1921. _Already Notre Dame has been book.| ed to meet Nebraska, the Army and the Indians, Since; Rockne . didn't relish the defeat handed, his team by .owa, it is almost a@ certainty that a same will be secured with that team. InaH probability Rockne will build round Gus Desch; champion low .urdler, and Paul Castner, In these two men he believés he has two of the est, running.backs in the country. Castner is left handed,,but can use ais. right hand: about as well. This makes it possible\for him to hurl for- ward paszes with either his right or left hand. Many formations will be constracted around him. While Rockne’s eleven ‘of 1922 wili be made up largely of _substitutes, of his year’s team, the “Wizard of the West” says, while he will greatly miss his stars of 1921, his substitutes are practically _as* capable. ~ Jake Schaefer, the world’s billiard champ, miss a billiard the other day. | Benny, Leonard and “Pinky” Mitch- ell are ‘arranged for a bout on the af- ternoon of Jan. 1, That’s a good ides, afternoon teas in the afternoon.’ Babe Ruth is in’ vaudeville makin’ | funny cracks.
