Why were the Cubs so much bet- ter on their home grounds, Wrig- ‘ley Field, than on the road? | This was a poser for Mr. Grimm. can’t. “The only answer seems to be that the boys just naturally re- spond to the home surroundings ley. “That sounds like we were a bunch of college boys, I know, but it's a fact we do 50 per cent better at home than away. Our | pitchers have the benefit of that background and our hitters like the targets. “But there have been too many times this year when we didn't get that big base-hit when it was needed. That's why we aren't {up closer to the Giants or in the |lead. Except for Cuyler, who was middle of the season, we 1932 just nos ly the {have not been hitting up to form. We have been getting as good pitching but that's enough.” Had he ever seen any better | ting? “Never,” ed the Cub leader. “They tell me old White Sox used to win on ! one or two runs every day but I | never saw them and I don't sec how they could have gotten any | better pitching than Hubbell, Par- | malee, Schumacher and Fitzsim- | mons have been delivering. And | don't forget the Giants have a | pretty good punch up there at the | plate. Fellows like Terry, Ott, !and O'Doul are no setups for any pitcher.” THREE BEST PITCHERS?

Hubbell is the best southpaw in the game, in my opinion. Don't let anybody tell you Dean is called Dizzy from a lack of brains, either. He is a smart pitcher, with a wonderful fast ball, a good curve and a change of pace. He threw plenty at us the day he struck out 17 Cubs. ““Warneke has pitched more tough luek losing games than any- body in the league. He's a great pitcher in every respect.” Grimm added that Roy Parma- lee of the Glants is at fast as Dean or any other.pitcher in the National League, but he still needs polishing. LAYING FOR LEADERS If the Cubs have any hopes of making further gestures in the League race they are largely con- fined to the confidence in makinz it tough for the Giants and the Braves during September at old ‘Wrigley Field.

LOUIS, Sept. 8.—Soft ball, which began as “indoor baseball” and inthe last two or three years flared into nationwide popularity, has gone semi-pro. A new inclosed outdoor park, in which games will be played before crowds paying admission, has been opened in St. Louis. George Sisler, former Major League star, is interested in the project and active in the forma- tion of leagues in the city. “The game has come along fast- er than basketball,” he said, “and there is every reason to believe it will enjoy an even greater na- tional popularity.” A 12 or 14-inch ball is used in the game. Bases are only 45 feet apart and bats are limited to two inches in diameter. oo g tenders finish their campalgns on the road, playing the stronger half of the league, and it may be any- thing but a joy-ride for them. - The ads bring you tne Informa- tion abou. quality, style and price.
