Players in that loop well remember how he used| to hand-cuff the first basemen with his sizzling “strikes” across. the diamond from third base. They marveled at the amazing speed ‘Walters had for such a skinny kid. They are not at all surprised that Walters proved quite a sensation on the mound—they rather felt that his talents were being wasted while he remained an infielder. No great shucks as a third base- man, Bucky asked Manager Jimmy Wilson for a chance fo try pitch- ing. The Phillies’ hurling staff was never overloaded with winning pitchers, so Walters was promised a chance to show what he could| do. Walters beat the world champion Cardinals, 2-1, and followed up that victory with a 1-0 shutout over the Chicago Cubs. Incidentally, it was Bucky's own bat that punched out the hit in the latter game that drove in the winning tally. If Bucky develops into a sensa- tion that his early mound -efforts promise, his supog.n_ls likely to pile catcher, | hammered out a home run to the| 200 | new woe on the troubled head ot | Eddie Collins, of the Boston Red Sox. Several years ago Collins made a trip out to the west coast to look | »cux Walters, then tcuted as a| \prize third baseman. | Collins Found Him | Collins must have been satisfied | with what he saw for he planked down something like $65000 and| |took Walters along. In a Red Sox uniform Bucky did not show to any great advantage. In fact, his hit- jting was so weak that he soon | drifted into the Internationals. Bos- | jton recalled him last year and sold | him to the Phillies in May. Back in 1924, Bob Smith was a Ishortstop for the Boston Braves. | When Dave Bancroft took charge Ofl |the Braves that year he also took | jover the task of covering the shorl,l field. Bancroft noticed that Smith was out there on the mound tossing | them up to batters in ° practice whenever he got the chance. Learning that Bob liked to pitch, Banny suggested that he try to de- |velop his delivery. The experiment worked out all right for Bob has been a pitcher ever since and today ,m es as a smart hurler with plenty tyle and contrel. I The Chicago White Sox have a | prcmising young pitcher in Joe {Vencs, who was up with the| | Br n Dodgers nct long ago| secking an outfield berth.

FIRST HALF OF BASEBALL PLAY - NEARS FINISH 'Four Cames Remain, with| Mocose Figuring in - Each Contest | GAME TOMORROW ] At Baseball Park—Elks vs, Mocsz at 4:30 c'clock. | I there ever was a baseball team | that could just about determine its own immediate future, that club is the Moose aggregation in the City| League. There are just four more | games to be played before the first half competition ends—and the Moose figure in every one of those engagements. For instance, tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, the Black Sox will attempt to subdue the challenge of the Elks in a regulation nine-inning contest, The playing of that tilt will leave two regularly scheduled and one postponed contests remaining. The postponed go, originally slated for last night but called off on ac- count of Flag Day exercises, bills the Legion and the Moose. It has not been re-scheduled on a definite date yet, but undoubtedly will be played next week, so that the sec- ond half rivalry may start Sunday, June 23. That leaves two regular games remaining. On Tuesday, the Moose will meet the Legion again, and, on Friday, the Black Sox will wind up the first half with the Elks. That's scme order to give a team | with limited pitching strength. But | playing one game about every two| days has been done before, so the Mooze won't be backward about making a try. Right now, the standings indicate the Moosé are in second place with five wins and three losses. The Legion head the parade with seven victories and three losses. The Elks are far behind.
