YANKEES GIVE UP DEAL FOR GULLOP Sale of Omaha Twirler Is Official- ly Cancelled New York, Jan. 24.—Nebuchadnez- zar Cullop, the right-handed pitcher whom the Yankees ‘“purchased” re- jcently from Omaha of the Western league, will not come to the world champlons after all, Ed Barrow yes- | terday declared that Bob Connery, who had been despatched to Omaha to clear up & misunderstanding with J. F. Burch, president of ihe West- (ern club, had tclegraphed that the deal was off. The Yankees were to pay $15,000 for Cullop, w0 is not to be eonfound- |ed with Nick, who used to be with /the Yankees years ago and was sent to the Browns in the Derrill Pratt deal, It seems that Burch insisted that if Cullop were sold to New York I he would have to stay in New York. | He did not want to see Cullop shunt- ed right back to some minor Jeague club. “Cullop is ripe for the big leagues and I want to see him get his [naturally SLUNPS INPOSSIBIE OF EXPLANATIONS Pitching, Hiting, Etc, “Jut 'Happen” Without Apparent Gaus: | Slumps in baseball, whether they be batting, pitching or fielding, are im- possible of explanation. They just happen. Often a pitcher who has had the opposition at his mercy for eight innings is batted all over the field in the ninth. A pitcher noted for his control suddenly develops a Wild streak that makes him look like some untried rookie. ILeading batters often go game after game without getting a hit. s 8 e When a player falls into ‘a slump, he worries. That doesn't improve the situation. Instead of do- ing things in his regular style he starts to experiment. That usually proves fatal. s F o Perhaps one of the unusual pitch- ing reversals of form on record was staged in the last world series be- Yankees. tween the Giants and the The upset had as its vietim Artie Nefh, master southpaw, The explo- sion came at a time when Nefth had the Yankees at his mercy, the win- ning of the game seemed to be a mere | formality of completing the nine inn- ings.
