They put the ball just where they wanted it 14 times out of fifteen. A few others I have seen like Johnson, Wood and Grove, could over-power batiers by sheer speed, but they, too, are rare birds. “Do you realize what it means when you talk about a high, hard ‘one, just inside or outside? Thai - plate is only 17 inches across. Fi- | gure what it means when you try to get that pitch within a space of four or five inches on either side, to make it tough for the batter and still make it a strike. “Not one pitcher in a hundred can do that sort of thing con- sistently.” . > Unanimous For Martin (EQUIPOSE IN | { | GREAT SHAPE BALTIMORE, Md., April 15.— | All questions of Cornelius Vander- | bilt Whitney’s Equipose, champion | of 1930, staging a successful come- back this season was removed from the minds of both local and outside horsemen here. The big four year old son of Pendant Swinging worked a mile in 1:47 with Sonny Workman swinging to his reins like a drown- | ing man hanging on to a piece of loose wreckage. Had Train Freddy Hopkins cared to ask his great charge to step at his best, many of the local clockers would have had to send their watches to the repair shop. Equipose was as full of run as a confidence man is of larceny. It is going to take a real contend- er to beat this four-year-old colt when he gets to racing at his |est. hero' will come through this year, despite all the ballyhoo and pres- sure. I have yet to talk to the play- er or manager who thinks the Pepper is & flash in the pan. His only criticism comes from among the war correspondents who re- serve the right, quite properly, to make their own guess on what i‘will happen this season.

He's a natural hitter — make no mistake about that—and he has lots of confidence up there at the plate. “Any boy who can hit and run the bases like Martin is bound to e a star.” Buart may have been a bit bias- ed because Martin literally stole @ ball game, frcm the Phils in the exhibition play by runnniz wild. take just it to the i } and become one of the game's greatest sluggers, instead of to BSt. Louis. Branch Rickey, boss of the Car- dinal farm system, had Klein tag- ged when he was greaking in with Fort Wayne but couldn’t land him, due to a hitch in club ownership that was under the eagle eye of Commissioner Landis. Consequent- ly Rickey did a good turn for his old friend, Burt Shotion, by rec- omnmpnding Klein.
