Williams This Pitcher Is a Regular Bear in Finding Plate If the big league club owners ever felt the pinch hard enough that it was necesaary to cut down thélr payroll they could eliminate the high salaried pitch ers. As a substitute they could use the newly invented pneumatic baseball pitching machine. It throws every kind of a curve but a epitball and never pitches a wild one. Three balls pitched make three strikes un less the batter lines them out or fouls them off. Any speed desired can be in stantly provided Compressed air power of this “machine gun.” CAUTION!
