THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE — ED WALSH WAS SUPERMAN OF THE BALL FIELD ace | { { { { | | | | | i | | BY BILLY EVANS ; Ed Walsh, once famous pitcher of the Chicago White Sox, will live long iin the annals of baseball as the “iron jmnan” of pitchers. if there ever was a_ glutton for ; work, fd Walsh was that individual. 'From 1966 to 1912 he took part in al- | most fifty games a year. : Walsh in tkose six years did about twelve years work. He had outlived his usefulness at a time when he should have been at the height of his career. | Here are jfst a few high spots in the career of Walsh, from 1906 to 1912, his big years in baseball. Here is his +1906 record. , Won 17 games and, lost 13. In 10 pf his 17 victories he scored shut outs. Pitched 3 one-hit games and work- ed in 13 games in which he allowed ‘6 hits or less. . | Jn the record of 19 straight made |by the Chicago White Sox from Aug. |2 to 23, he worked~in 7 games and won them all. | In banging up\the 7 victories in 22 days he ali2wed only 6 runs. In 4 of the games he shut out the opposition. | Hero of World Series | In the 1906 world series with the {Chicago Cubs, which the Sox won, to ; the great surprise of the baseball world, Walsh featured with his pitch- ing. x x 'He twice beat the Cubs. In his /first ganie against Chance’s then great team, he allowed only 2 hits and no rons and struck out 12 men. 1907 Walsh had another big season, al- ‘sational performances. that featured his work in 1906.

Some of the dumbest players I His record for the season was 24 games won and 18 lost. . 1908 The season of 1998 was the biggest year in/the career of Walsh. The “Big Moose,” as he was known by the ball players, worked in 66 games, nearly half the number play- ed by his club. 1 Walsh started 49 times, finished 15 cther games and managed to win 40, tose only 15 and tie 1 game. In a game against Cleveland he struck out 15 men in 8 ‘rinings, yet lost the game. In that contest Joss, pitching for Cleveland, shut out Chi- cago without a run or hit, not a play- er reaching first base. 3 He scored 12 shut<outs. Jn the last 9 gamés of the season he worked in 7 of them. 7 ~ 1909 e The strain of the three previous years told on the old arm and the best Welsh could do was. win 15 and’ ‘lose 11.

With the second gness one can al- tways tell what might have happened Thad the style of play been shifted. In Icoking over the running ac- count of the recent game between California and Washington »and Jef- ferson, some interestifg facts are ap- parent. Califernia pulled a “boner” at the en of the first half. . While time was being taken out the California quar- terback discovered that but two si ends of play remained. ey California had the ball on Weshing- ten and Jefferson’s 22-yard jine. He had all the time he neededo arrange his eleven in kick formation and try.a drop kick or goal fromeplacement. He | called for the kick fofmation and then changed signals and ordered a forward pass. The pass failed. With three minutes left to play in the second half, California got the ball on a short kick on the easterners’ 20- yard line. Two fresh line plungers were sent in and the California goal icker was permitted to remain in the Nimeup. Thyge plays put the ball on Washington’ and Jefferson’s 12-yard) line. ~~ : Two yards needed on fourth down. Fresh plunger in the backfield, also a kicker. Again a forward pass was called for. XJt was completed, but the receiver fumbled when tackled and Washington and Jefferson, recovering the fumbled ball, came near convert- ing it into a touchdown.

I hav always believed that intuition had Much to do with baseball brains, Last season Glenn Killinger of Penn State College was the sensation of the football world. Killinger ‘by many. was ccnsidered the greatest running back the east has developed<in years. He was generally credited with being a football player who used his brains to advantage. Q Killinger is to get.a big league trial with the New York American League club in the spring. Will he make good? Will’ he emulate his college feats in the big league? Perhaps no one is better qualified to,.pass an opinion ‘on the chances of: Killinger to make good than Coach Bezdek of Penn State. Under Bez- dek’s direction Killinger has reached afzzy heights in the college athletic world. Bezdek thinks ‘Killinger will make good. To me the most interest- ing ‘thing that Bezdek said about the Penn star was: Killinger thinks mind.” That one sentence speaks a volume in summing up Kilinger's chances to make the grade in the majora#igdf he thinks with a baseball mind-#@. Bez- dek says, he has one of the most im- Portant assets for success, To illustrate just what I. mean, 1 need only cite the case of Joe Jack- with a baseball .{8on, one-time star of the Chicago White Sox.

In the slang of sporting cir- cles it might be termed getting your opponent’s “goat.” : se Fe : Champions are the worst offend- ers. As a rule the champion proceeds to keep the challenger waiting in the ring for about 10 minutes, and delays the start of the bout perhaps 15 min- utes. Such a tedious delay at s6:crit- ical a time always plays havoc with not only the challenger’s nerves but the crowd as well. * 8 * Such tactics have aided materially in the defeat of many likely contend- ers. While not in keeping with the very best ethics of sportsmanship, it got results, which to a great many is the: thing most desired. * oe # It;seems that some of the tennis stars,realizing. that delays worked on. the, nerves of the high strung players, adopted the tactics of the boxing game..

FA SUCCULENT FEED FOR COWS ‘| Dried Apple Pomace Does Not Cause Decrease in Milk Flow Nor Yield of Butterfat. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Dried or “evaporated” apple pomace as a succulent feed for the dairy cow is the subject of a preliminary report from the bureau of chemistry and an- imal industry of the United States De- partment of Agriculture based on an experiment to determine the feeding value, of dried-apple pomace, especial- ly its suitabilit® food for cows in Jactation. Preliminary results are re- ported.-bécause of a large number of inquiries on the subjeet. “The text of the report follows: It appears there is a belief among dairymen that the dried product has d tendency‘to cut down the milk flow, or even cause cows to go dry, although apple pomace fresh from the cider press igs generally recognized as being a ‘good succulent feed for milk cows. To test the soundness of this belief.a feeding trial has been carried out by the department. Only one cow was used in this test, an@ the total quan- tity of dried pomace fed was less than 400 pounds; therefore it must be borne in mind that the results obtained, while indicative, cannot be accepted as conclusive, te In this feeding trial the dried-apple pomace was fed ‘wet’ and its feeding value compared with’ that of corn sl- lage, since it is Intended to be a suc- culent feed. The pomace was pre- pared. by adding to the dry material three times its weight of water sev- eral hours before feeding, thus pro- ducing a feed similar in water con- tent to that of corn silage. For a period of 30 days the cow re- ceived:a ‘balance ration consisting of grain, hay, and. corn silage. The si- lage was then replaced by the apple pomace for a similar length of time, following a ten-day transition period for the change in diet, and after a like transition period at the end of 30 days the original ration containing silage was resumed and continued for a third 30-day period. The quantity fed—36 pounds, of wet Pomace per day—was such that the total dry matter in. the pomace equalled the weight of dry matter in the silage replaced, The quantities of grain and hay fed remained practical- ly constant throughout the whole cx- periment, While the data obtained are not sufficient to warrant the drawing of final and definite cgnclustons, the indi- Dried Apple Pomace Appears to Be Pal- atable Feeding Material for Cows. eations are that no bad ‘effects follow the feeding of dried-apple pomace. There ‘was no decrease in the milk flow nor in the-yield of butterfat. When fed as described the dried pomace appeared to be equal, pound for pound of dry matter, fo good corn silage as. a. succulent. food for this dafry cow. Owing to the property which it possesses of absorbing large quantities of water and swelling, it should never be fed dry, but\ should be. allowed to soak in water for an or so before feeding.
