I've been asked this questions innumerable times. As 21 seasons have come and gone since that day in September, 1906, when I got my first close-up of Ed Walsh I have encountered all the good ones in our league who have hurled during that time, and also some of the best in the National. Now, there is a distinction between the greatest and best pitcher a player ever has faced and the one against whom he has been least successful. So it is in my case. I firmly belleve and always have sald that Walter Johnson was the greatest pitcher I ever looked over, and I shall devote this entire article to him, reserving the story of my im- pressions of other great hurlers for tomorrow’s installment of this series. Of those whom I shall mention in the next chapter there have been a number whom I have found more dif- ficult to hit and whom I feared more than I ever did the mighty Walter. | Not that I've found the “Big Train” easy; far from it. 'Though frequently 1 have been able to make but one hit in a game, and sometimes with “0,” as we say, he is not the kind of pitcher I minded facing. Johnson's control always has been good and I knew I never would have to look for anything but that fast ball. But, boys, oh boys, what speed! You just swung, that was all. Elther you “did or vou didn’t, and moré often you didn’t.” Walter's style of pitching isx the poetry of motion. His effortiess wind- up, the sway of the body, that beau- tiful side-arm delivery—all make a picture to be remembered. And that speed- u can't realize what it is until you have been up at the plate with a bat in your hands. I have heard Connie Mack, Bill Gleason and other old-timers talk about Rusie, but I never heard them claim that he had more of the “swift” than Walter Johnson. Waddell a Speed Rival. In speed alone I believe Waddell came nearer to Johnson than any one I have seen, but Johnson's ball is harder to follow because of the side- arm delivery; Rube’'s came overhand. Joe Wood and “Lefty” Grove are close up for third place. Johnson broke in with Washington in August, 1907, just a month or so before I got a steady job at second base. I am not going to dabble in statistics much in these stories, but I could not help going over ‘“Bar- ney’s” record, just to refresh my memory. For years and years his support was not much, yet I find that he has led the league in games won six sea- sons. In 1912 he won 16 consecutive victorles; in 1913 he took 14 in a row and then in 1924, his eighteenth year, but with a really fine team behind him, Walter mowed ‘em down 13 times straight Now, in his twentieth season, I noted the other day that he had | hurlea his 112th shutout victory. Immediately 1 wondered how many of those I had been in. I get a thrill now as I recall one that is not counted in that list, but should be, would bring the record to 113. It was in Philadelphia and Bob Grooni was pitching for Washington. When we went in for our half of the ninth Bob had us 3—0, but we got clouds had been very heavy all after- noon and they did not lighten as the sun went down. The darker it be- came the faster he threw. The game was called at the end of the nineteenth round and we never came close to coring. at the ball during the last five in- nings. We would see that easy swing and then, chug, in the catcher's mitt, and_we 1 believe he was HAVE: YOUR Headlights Adjusted und registered at NEW RADIATORS FOR AUTOS WITTSTATT'S R & F.

Walter Johnson. never better in his life than he was that evening. Being a fine sportsman as well as a great pitcher, Johnson always has been careful not to hit a batter in- tentionally. In spite of that he plunked one now and then and un- doubtedly many batters have been “Bender noticed that on some signals he could see the muscles—." ineffective against Walter because they were afrald to take a chance, and stand boldly up to the plate. Among those who were not afraid of Johnson nor any other pitcher was Jack Barry. Of course, Jack used due caution, but he was up there to take his cut, and he did. One day in Washington Bender coached at first mll afternoon. Ainsmith was catching and it was infernally hot. About the fifth inning Ainsmith hit a home run and when he returned to the bench he was so nearly melted that he went into the clubhouse and took off his long-sleeved flannel un- dershirt. A close observer like the “Chief” couldn’t avold looking at Ainsmith’s muscular arms that seldom had been displayed before. HBender quickly no- ticed that on some signals he could see the muscles in Ainsmith's arm, while with other signals the muscles were relaxed. He decided that when the muscles of the arms moved Wal- ter was to throw a curve and the rest of the time the fast one. After one inning he knew he was right, so began to tip us off, and we had a little better luck. Alinsmith, noticing the change, but not guessing why, decided to switch the signal just as Barry went to bat. On the third pitch Bender gave Barry the tip and Jack stepped in to take a cut at the curve which he liked. The ball was not only fast, but high, and it hit the side of the peak of Barry's cap and turned that plece of headgear just half way- around. He got his base for being hit with a pitched ball. Jack's face was as white as milk, partly with anger, as he went to first. When he reached there he spoke a plece to Bender, which the Chief still recalls as a grim smile spreads over his face.

ROBERTS-DUNDEE GO DRAWS $65,000 ‘GATE’ By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, January 13.—A com- plete sell-out of reserved seat tickets for the first time in the history of new Madison Square Garden has fore- I $65,000 “gate” for tomorrow night's 10-round welterweight fight between Joe Dundee of Baltimore and Eddie Roberts of Tacoma, Wash. Roberts’ sensational one-round knockout over Dundee after the lat- ter apparently had fought his way to the top of the challenging ranks has not affected Dundee’s high rating here. He is quoted a favorite at odds ranging from 8 to 5 and 3 to 1, This surprising confidence in Dun- dee’s ability to come back has failed to shake the confidence of Roberts, however. “I did it once and I can do it again,” he observ: v A’S HURLERS WILL START SOUTH ON FEBRUARY 18 PHILADELPHIA, January 13 (#). -—The pitchers and catchers of the Philadelphia.

The men will com- plete their second round tilts tonight and in addition will stage several of the initial matches in the doubles event. Fred Haas and Mrs. C. R. Train figured as victors in the two feature matches of yesterday’s card. The match between Haas and H. H. Burg- win was the most sensational yet staged in the tourney by reason of the remarkable come-back made by the youthful Georgetown star. Burgwin romped through the first set without allowing Fred a game and kept the upper hand in the sec- ond until the score stood 5—4 and 4-0. With his back to the wall, Haas fought courageously, and carried the set to deuce, finally winning it at 11—9. He then took the third at 6—3, giving him the match. Mrs, Train, holder of the Chevy Chase Club champlonship, bested Frances McKee in a threeset affair which sizzled. Miss McKee flashed fine strokes and a smashing overhead service, but her opponent was too steady for her, gaining the decision at 6—3; 4—6; 6—2. Emmett Pare, No. 2, advanced by virtue of his straight-set victory over Owen Howenstein. Paul . Harding and Jack Purinton also entered the second round, the former defeating A. O.

This affected his iron play, which is capable of being as brilliant as anybod A Near Hole-in-One. One of the greatest drives Diegel ever made was pulled off at Troon, Scotland, while practicing for the qualifying rounds of the British open championship. The eleventh hole on the municipal course was the scene of this tremend- ous effort. It measures 340 yards. Leo tore off a screamer that held the line to the pin all the way. After a long carry it rolled upon the green and right across the mouth of the cup, coming to a stop six feet be- yond. Had it had just a shade less punch behind it, or’if it had hit the back of the cup on the bounce, Leo would have rung up a 340-yard hole-in- one, which would be well worth re- membering. Two Remarkable Eagles. Playing in a special four-ball match at Beaumont, Tex., in 1924, Leo elec- trified the gallery and his fellow players by a great drive from the first tee.
