Shawkey, 8s the ne world series in Chlcago It was r for 1930. The Yankees ecided to stick to the Hug-| s system. Bob the Gob” got his first rcall baseball tutoring under Connie | Mack, but he spent the 12 best years of his baseball life under the | New York banner, 10 of them under the direction of the late Millcr‘ Huggins. Huggins was always‘ known as a “smarc pitcher.” He | was credited largely with the dc» velopment of George Pipgras as one | of the leading righthanders in the American League after it seemed | that George would mever make the grade. Under Huggins, Shawkey was charged with coaching respon- sibilities, so that it was not strange before he died that Huggins advised | Colonel Ruppert to select either Art | Fletcher, the old Giant star and| now a Yankee coach, or Shawkey. | There have been few better liked ball players, on or off the field,! than Robert J. Shawkey, whose| flapping red shirt sleeves always distinguished him in action. “Bob the Gob” was a big factor in | the 1921-22-23 pennant victories of the Yankees, winning 54 and losing 35 games in those three seasons. He pitched the famous 10-inning | tie game in the 1922 world’s series, called off because of “darkness.” Shawkey’s last appearance in the world’s series was in 1926 against the Cardinals. Although then past his prime, Bob had shown such effectiveness with his famous curve in two relief performances that Huggins sent him out against Alex- ander in the sixth game at the Yankee Stadium. After a bad first inning Shawkey ,held his own with Alex until the seventh, when the old soupbone began to feel the ef- fects of a damp, chilly day. Old‘ Bob was knocked out and hasn't been pitched much for the Yankees | since then, although he was good | enough to twirl in 23 games for Montreal in the International League in 1928, winning nine and | losing nine. | Three of the big stars in the Uni- versity of Pittsburgh's powerful gridiron lineup this year are Tom Parkinson, fullback; Joe Donchess, a rugged end, and Ray Montgomery, guard. They are kingpins in the main plays of Jock Sutherland's outfit that has started out as im-' pressively as any eleven in the| country. { Donchess was unquestionably one | of the finest ends in the country | last year, perhaps the best defensive | or interfering end anywhere, al-| though he failed to get as many | headlines as the wingmen figuring | in the forward passing attacks. | There is considerable rivalry over | the merits of these players around ! the Smoky City, where Carnegie Techls outstanding trio happen to hold down similar positions—John | Karcis at fullback, John Dreshar at guard and Ted Rosenzweig on | the end. | ‘GIANTS ANNEX YOUNG CATCHER NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Francis La Veque, a young catcher who tried out with Springfield of the Western Association last year, has been as- | signed. for special trial by the New | York Giants. Springfield let La | Veque go when the Browns sent | Catcher Harvey Johnson to them.) OLAF BODDING JUNEAU TRANSFER ... SERVICE TRANSFER ....
