HUBBELL SEES MUCH ACTION NEW YORK, July 31.—The de- pendence which the championship defending Giants are placing in their pitching ace, Carl Hubbell, this season, is well indicated by the fact the screw-ball king is » seeing some action in nearly one- third of the Giants’ fames. He appeared in 26 of the Terrymen's; first 84 games.

Joseph “‘Lefty” O'Doul hasn't mu chance of winning, this year, the “most valued player” award for which he was twice runner-up in his more active days, but as as the pace-setting Giants are concerned he's still one of the handiest fellows a team can have hanging around. The colorful, popular “man in the green suit” has been gradual-| ly edging into a place as a reg- ular outfielder on the strength of his timely hitting, and Polo ground fans are convinced he “belongs in there.” O'Doul, now 37 years old, got his chance at regular duty when Left Fielder Jo-Jo Moore was tempor- arily disabled and forthwith began getting his bingles so consistently that upon Moore's return the lat- ter took over center field, where George Watkins had been patrol- ing, and Lefty remained in the left —Frank N WE 4 BATTLE FOR & / HONOR OF REPRESENTING UACLE SAM 18 RE KL OEFENSE OF TE INTERNATIONAL // TROPHY AGAINST ENGLANDS pasture.

No player makes fewer squawks. And the result is that when Bill does squawk the um- pires pay attention. “Newspaper men cuss him. Why? Well, the first place, they say, he lacks publicity sense. He refuses to go through the paces for the press. He's reserved and cold— almost frigid in his reception of the press. And that, in part at least, is true. “My job is win- ning ball games,’ he says. ‘If I turn out a winning team people come out to see me—if I don't they stay away.
