George, who} was a middie? | weight, never reached the heights that his brothers did, and SHADE fought a great| deal in the sticks. He, too, is thru with the game. But Dave, the youngest, who was) the class of the trio, is on the! threshold of his greatest opportun- ity—a fight for the welterweight | title with Mickey Walker. Dave was smarter than his broth- | ers in that he fought enough for ex- perience, but had brains enough to know that he couldn't fight every week, month in and month out. and make the top grade. Too much fighting takes the sap out of a boxer, no matter how good he may be. ‘When he had obtained the expert- ence he wanted Dave went after the big shots. The other night in| New York he stepped into a mint of money when he knocked out Jimmy Slattery, and that victory put him in the limelight which will | bring him a lot of matches and per- haps the welterweight title. . .

It's too bad y four | Seattle fans didn’t see him in Oak- two wegks ago, he did some clouting there.” | MILJUS PULLS | SMART MOVE John Miljus can do a lot of things out on the rubber besides throwing a baseball up to the hit ters. He's one of the best fielding pitchers in the league and he’ pretty cagey in preventing runners from taking big leads. Tho hardest trick for a pitcher to turn is to pick a runner off of second base, and that's just what Miljus did to Merlin Kopp in the sixth inning Briday and that play proved to be the deciding factor in the game. The Solons followed with a barage of hits and Kopp would have scored along with the rest of his mates and the story of the game might have been very di jent. DOES “RED” BALDWIN THROW TOO MUCH? There isn’t a catcher in minor league baseball,'and it's doubtful if any receiver in the business throws as much to the bases with men of fi *|the sacks as Earl Baldwin does. Baldwin seems to overdo it, and takes unnecessary chances, altho he gets the ball away fast and is usually accurate with it. Baldwin was more accurate in his throwing a year ago than he has been this season, and he had more help on the corners of the diamond as both Ted Baldwin and Elmer Bowman were better at slapping the ball on the runners than Frank Brazill or Herman. This isn't in criticism of Bald win's wild throw yesterday, A good heave would have completed & smart play. Watson was on third, Shea on second and Miljus pitched a fourth ball to Davis, As the first- sacker trotted down the lino Bald win shot the ball to second, but threw badly, A good throw would have trapped Shea flatfooted off of second base. But Baldwin throws and thi and throws. It keeps the bases ners on thelr bags, but !t does seem as if he overdoes it.
