HUKL HIS \ DADDY’® GOT €O MUCH MONEY THAT | HE DOESN'T CARE WHETHER HE PAYS HIS DEBTS OR NOT: BRIAN BELL (Amnb PRESS SPORTS wnmni Jack hop, who is doing his pitching this year in the Pacific toast League, is qualified to take place with the bold spirits who went on the mound against that hard hitter, Father Time and forced the old boy to miss a third strike. Jack is older than Grover Cleveland Alexander, al- though not yet so aged as Cy! Young and Iron Man Joe McGin. nity were when they finally called it a da year in the Eastern league Jack won Il games and lost sev- en, figures that would have d the admiration of waiters Southern hotels who always had a bet down on hi team when he pitched in Dixie. Two of the victories came in one day when he won a doubleheader for Bridgeport. Warhop was with tha New York Americans 20 years ago and in spite of his unassuming phy- sique . was able to remain in fast company eight years. Warhop came to the big league and left it with many fans convinced that he was an Indian, although such was not the case. His name had an ‘Indian sound and the fact he played for a time on a trouping team of Indians lent strength to the superstition. As a matter of fact all of his war whoops were pure imitation. When the former Highlander was making his first appearance in the Sally league, he went with Columbia, S. C., to open the sea son at Augusta, Ga. All the ne. gro hotel waiters and bellboys were out to see the season open- ed. It was announced that “War- hop will pitch for Columbia.” One of the bellboys, very black and very enthusiastic, turned to a companion. “I used to see a Mr. Warhop pitch for New York when I was a bellboy at the McAlpin,” he said. “If this is the same one, I'll know him, cause he throws the ball underhand.” About that time, Jack from the bench and warm up. “That’s him,” fairly screamed the former New York hotel at- tache, as he pulled a thin roll of notes’ from his pocket. “How much money is you boys got?" Jack paid him a handsome divi- dend, shutting out the opposition to win, h arous in came out began to HOW DO YOU PRONOUNCE IT? It is probably true that Hughie Critz, the Cincinnati ‘Reds’ sen- sational second baseman, would make just as astonishing stops and throws by any other. name, but he probably finds his own pronunciation less popular than that of any other major league baseball player. Hughie makes Critz sound like fights, which is fust what he does when he gets in a baseball uniform. Many| players and fans say Critz as it it should rhyme with Fitz. VERY LITTLE BUT LOUD Little Jackie Tavener, who| stands only five feet, five inches from the ground and weighs only about 140 pounds wet with per-| spiration, is the smallest regular player in the major leagues, but} refuses to permit his lack ofl pounds and inches to discourage him at bat. The diminutive Tiger shortstop has started on his cam- paign for extra bases and has al- ready won a place among the more or less select few who Iuvei hit for the circuit in the American league. With a circuit clont in the first week of the season to start him he should break . his, record of five last season. —l . 7 TWO CALIFORNIA SKIPPERS BERKELEY, Cal., May 25—The University of California varsity crew has two honorary captains, a precedent in the rowing history of the institution. Atvin Rydland- er of Kalispell, Mont., and Carroll Dressler, Oakland, Cal, were both named captains after they had re- ceived the same number of votes in the annual election.

Branom’s father-in-law has made frequent attempts to persuade his husky relative to forsake his pro- fession and enter business. Each attempt has met with failure, for Dud plays baseball becausa he likes it.
