BROWN, While the National league ts hold: ing its golden jubilee in celebration of its 50 years of existence, John William Scott, pitcher extraordinary, is holding his own little jubilee, cel: ebrating his third comeback in the big show. Scott is with the Glants again after a period of service in the min- ors— a period that was scheduled to be permahent when John made his exodus under a misunderstanding two winters ago. ia Scott broke into the second game the’ Giants played this’ season. He faced the Braves and turned them back with one little run and four hits, “That's in honor of my firet o back in 19 clubhouse, Holds the Doughty Braves, When the Br elr W home Art we of the Giants eht wa selected to pitch for MeGraw's men. taken out in the sixth fr ning and a pinch hittér, Emi} Meu sel, sent in Sh an effort to break the tle that existed, The score was still tied when Scott was sent in to finish, the game, He pitched super) ball,alowing the Braves but ong hit the vemander of the contest.

The Ohio club gave Scot, nis uncondi- tional release in May that year and Scott was homeless until McGraw of- fered to give bim a chance to come back. McGraw was fighting for the pennant with a wobbling pitching staff, Scott rounded into form and in the closing weels of the season played a prominent part in the win- ning of the National league pennant. He shut out the Yanks in one game of the world’s series that fall. The following year Scott pitched with the Giants, but a year ago winter decided that the should money.
