low Over Best American Three-Year-Old Reaches Beyond Turf Circles
K COMMITTEE mm involves 7EV AIM 01 Selection of Horse to Meet Papyrus Becomes National Talk With Sport Fans, BY HENRY FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. I.—Eyes of the Jockey Club, a committee that has to select an American 3-year-old that will carry the national turf colors against Papyrus, the English Derby winner. In the international race at Belmont Park, Oct. 20, began to see something today that looked like storm clouds In the sky. The row between the admirers of Zev, the Sinclair colt, and My Own, the dashing youngster owned by Admiral Grayson, has crept beyond the bounds of tha racing fraternity and is becoming almost a national issue. Mitchell Talks for My Own | A letter of Brigadier General ' Mitchell, head of the United States air servioa, to August Belmont, president of the Jockey Club and sponsor of the* race, demanding, In effect, a square deal for My Own, showed the extent to which the race has become of general and national Interest. General Mitchell voiced the sentiments of all partisans of My Own when he suggested that If the owners of Zev refused to consent to a match race with My Own, that the Grayson colt be selected to carry the American standard against the British thoroughbred. That "Frog" Again Zev. according to Sam Hildreth, his trainer, threw a frog In his last start and for that reason he was said to be unable to run In the proposed match race. Admiral Grayson, It seems, was more than willing to do anything to put My Own to the test and he even sacrificed several fine purses to enter his colt in two of the events considered as trials for the big race. Zev won every one of his starts thik season with the exception of the Preakness and Hildreth asserts he Is the champion of his class on that reoord alone. Admirers of My Own maintain Zev does not deserve tha honor merely because he showed such fine form In the early season.

ONE GREAT PITCHER FREQUENTLY DECIDES A WORLD’S SERIES
By RAY SCHALK, Famous White Sox Catcher. What part does pitching play in a short series? In figuring the chances of the Giants and the Yankees in the coming World Series, that question Is worthy of much consideration. Unquestionably, the Yankee staff as a whole is far superior to that of the Giants. Over a season’s campaign of 154 games it would decisively assert Itself. But does It play so promlhent a part in the outcome of a short series? Experience has taught me that one great pitcher in a short series can outdo the efficiency of an allstar staff, it was Babe Adams with three victories in the 1909 series between Pittsburgh and Detroit that returned the Pirates victors. Adams was the only effective Pittsburgh pitcher. Single handed he upset the dope and put to rout the Detroit pitching staff which had proven so troublesome to American League batters. Back in 1917 It was "Red” Faber who made possible the Chicago White Sox victory over the

The Eleanor, owned by W. Ruhaak, Peoria, was second and the Hoosler Boy, owned by J. W. Whitlock, Rising Sun, Ind., was third. SARAZENRETAINS PRO GOLF TITLE Recovery on 38th Hole of Match Beats Hagen, By Times Special PELHAM MANOR. N. Y„ Oct. 1. — Gene Sarazen can wear the pro golf crown another year. It was tilted perilously, ready to fall on to the head of Walter Hagen, the veteran, in the tourney that closed Saturday, but a remarkable recovery on the thirtyeighth hole of an extra-hole match permitted the champion to retain his title. Hagen fought an uphill battle to square the match after being 3 down at the twenty-eighth. The match was decided on the second extra hole. Both sank putts of more than five feet to halve the thirty-seventh hole with birdie 4s.
HURST FAMILY SHINES IN CASTING TOURNAMENT Lou Hurst stood all the local bait casters 'on their ears" Saturday and Sunday at the third annual tournament of the Indianapolis Casting Club at the pool at College Ave. and Fall Creek Blvd., taking five out of the six numbers on the schedule for the boys who handle the light bamboo fishing wands and shoot the little aluminum weights at the targets in, the pool. Mrs. Hurst, following In the footsteps of her skillful spouse, concluded to make it a gala day for the Hurst family by taking the women’s half ounce acuracy event by a score of 98.9 per cent. Ollie Baus won the five-eighths ounce accuracy plug, unknown distance event, taking a leg on the Rosenberg silver trophy. The accuracy fly casting event was won by George Batcheler, Horace Comstock being second and E. A. Nelson third.

Ray Schalk. Noted Catcher , Recalls Heroic Work of Adams in 1909 and Faber in 1917
New York Giants. He w.on three games. The records of the World Series games show that one pitcher has often dominated the event by winning three games. In the last two World Series tne New York Yankees have gone dotvn to defeat before the Giants. In 1921 it was a hard-fought affair, but last year the best the Yanks could do was get a tie out of the five games played. No baseball expert will for a minute argue that the pitching staff of the Giants was equal to that of the Yanks. Asa matter of fact the decisive victory of the Giants was the surprise of baseball, particularly for/'the experts. Baseball authorities without exception picked the Yanks each year, basing their dope on the admittedly superior pitching staff of the American League entry. All of which brings me back to my original query: What part does pitching play in a short series? I am inclined to the belief that the value of an all-star pitching
WULLER-ZIMMER IN PLAY-OFF FOR CITYCOLF TITLE Youngster and State Champ in Interesting Match at Coffin Course, A play-off of unusual interest for the city golf championship was to take place this afternoon on the Coffin course between "Massle" Miller and Eddie Zimmer. The match was to be 18 holes medal play. The youthful Miller “dropped from the skies" to challenge the State champion for the local crown. Developed as Caddy Miller, a youngster only nineteen years old, a >d only a few years ago a caddy, Is comparltlvely unknown in tourney play. Among his friends he is rated an above-the-average performer on the links, but it remained for the present city tournament to put him In the spotlight. His consistent play won him a tie with Zimmer, who staged a comeback on the final eighteen to tie the youth. 232 for 54 Holes Zimmer was five strokes behind In the medal play on the final round, but shot the last eighteen in 71 to tie Miller, who made a 76. Their gross lor the 64 holes was 232. Herman Olsen of South Grove won low net in the tourney with a score of 202. Jack Tuite with 212 was second and Dr. Gant third with 216. W. Martin of Riverside was second low gross with 242 and Billy Reed was third with 244. Jack Tuite, who led the first day, finally finished with a 245.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
staff is overplayed in a short, series, such as the annual clash of seven games between the two major league pennant winners. The Yankees have five great pitchers who stand out. The staff of the Qiants boasts of no such strength. Yet on the staff of the National League entry are several pitchers who have the ability to carry single handed the burden, if they are at the top of their game. Southpaws bother the Yankees.
RAY SCHALK SAYS—
Yankees* pitching staff is far superior to Giazits. • • * One great pitcher often outdoes entire all-star staff. * • • Yankees have five great pitchers to start against the Giants. • • • S o uthpaw s bother a free swinging club like the Yankees.

Third struggle with the Saints today. Jesse Petty was due to fling ’em for the battling Indians, who have attracted nation-wide 'attention recently by downing the Champion Saints two in a row and pulling them from the A. A. leadership.
With the two big league races decided and Baltimore "in" with the International League pennant, bftsel*all eyes have turned toward the American Association, where the Blues and Saints are waging one of the greatest flag fights In league history. Extra Inning at Oohunbtis The K. C. Blues edged out In front Sunday by defeating the Senators at Columbus In ten Innings, while the new-life Indians were walloping the Saints here. 9 to 6^ On Saturday the Tribesmen whipped the Northmen, 6 to 0, In a game in which Fitzsimmons allowed only four hits. This is the final week of the schedule and It looks like a whirlwind finish. The Saints play three more games here. Including today’s battle, and then go to Louisllle for six. The Blues continue at Columbus and then Tinlsh at Toledo. Blues In Twin Bill The Blues had a double-header carded with the Senators today because the second half of the twin bill at Columbus Sunday ended In six innings with the score knotted. Bill Burwell hurled for the Indians Sunday and outpitched Tom Sheehan ace of the St. Paul staff. "Long Tom” was knocked out and gave way to Merritt. It was the first time Sheehan met defeat in the eastern half of the circuit this season. His year’s win record totals twenty-nine. Spud Campbell’s batting was a big feature Sunday. He collected three singles and a double out of four trips to the plate. The fielding of Klrke and Beck, opposing first sackers, was outstanding. Krueger poled a double and triple, and Sheehan, before leaving the box, clouted a single and triple. Babe Does His Stuff By United Press BALTIMORE, Oct.

Mike Cvengros of the White Sox finds the Yankees one of the easiest clubs in the league for his style of pitching. Mike hasn’t scored many victories against the Yanks but he always gives them plenty of trouble. Jack Bentley of the Giants is a southpaw after the type of Cvengros as to style. Possibly Jack has a bit more stuff than Mike because of his superior physique. It wouldn’t surprise me if McGraw

used Bentley to decided advantage against the American League entry. I am also partial to the pitching of Hughey McQuillan. He has good stuff and knows how to pitch. That is of great value against a slugging aggregation like the Yankees. Incidentally, McQuillan is a fine fielder and a good hitter. His presence on the rubber makes the Giants a wellbalanced ball club. Then there is Jack Scott, Art Nehf and Bill Ryan, most capable performers. Each has the ability to make himself a World Series hero if he happens to be at the top of his game. For the past two years I have played a great many games against the Giants on the spring training trip and I have been in an excellent position to judge the merits of the Giants’ pitchers. Likewise my summer's play against the Yankees gives me an even better line on the pitching staff of the American League pennant win-
INDIANA U. FANS THINK DE PAUW GAME DANGEROUS Methodists Given Credit for Having One of Strongest Squads in State. By Times Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct. I.—De Pauw looms up, in the minds of supporters of Indiana University’s football team, as a possible winner of next Saturday’s opening fray at Bloomington. Coach Ashmore is believed to have one of the best squads In the State, with the passible exception of Notre Dame and Butler, in the opinion of some fans. There is anew program under way at Indiana. It is the Eastern System —the Navy system. It is founded upon strict training, slow but finally excellent conditioning and thorough discipline. Coach Bill Ingram and his assistant. Gardner, both masters in this system of play, are putting the new system into effect. The system Includes the idea of pointing a team to the most Important games whatever may be the result of early season contests. At the Naval Academy, It is the game with Army; at Indiana, it will be, naturally, the Big Ten games with Northwestern, Wisconsin, Chicago and Purdue. The first Big Ten game is with Northwestern at Washington Park, Indianapolis, Oct. 13. Complete Card of Ring Offering Here Tonight MAIN GO K. O. Jeakle, Toledo, vs. Sidney Click.

ners. Here are the conclusions that I draw: The American League staff as a whole is 30 per cent 'more efficient than the Giants’ staff. Yet, there are certain pitchers on the New York Nationals who have the ability single handed to counteract the punch of the Yankee staff as a whole. Then’ again, some pitcher given no consideration may upset the dope. Jesse Barnes, the possessor of a great curve ball, turned in such a performance in the 1921 series between the Giants and the Yanks. Not figured to start, his two victories as relief pitcher saved the Giants. Pitching is baseball’s most valuable asset. Over the long route, an all-star pitching staff will asset itself. However, I am of the opinion that a galaxy of star pitchers does not mean so much in a short series of seven games. Often one great pitcher may prove even more valuable than four or five stars. For that reason, in out the coming series between the Yankees and the Giants, it is not wise to lay too much stress on the Yankees’ great’pitching staff.
BIG DAY FOR BURFORD Local Star Wins Weekly Shoot for Third Straight Time. Some of these times Burford won’t win the weekly shoot at the Indianapolis Gun Club.

Not entirely satisfied with this Burford tied for first in the doubles with Dickison and Denison with 21 out of 12 pair and also tied for second lr. the handicap event. Collins and Holliday tied for first in the handicap with 24 out of 25. LOOKS AG TROUGH CY GETS CROWN Williams Probably Will Be 1923 Homer King, NEW YORK, Oct. I.—At least one of Babe Ruth’s baseball ambitions has been practically shattered. The Babe’s aspiration to again ascend the throne as King of all home runs hitters was sent agllmmering Sunday when Cy Williams, his swatting competitor for the honor, crashed out a pair of four-bases —his thirtyninth and fortieth—ln the PhllllesDodgers game at Ebbets Field. The Philadelplda outfielder produced his first four-ply shot in the seventh Inning, with bases unoccoupied. His second came In the twelfth inning, which broke up a 3 to 3 tie and put the Philliles on the long end of a 6 to 4 score. As the Yankees have only six more games to play, the chances of the Babe to overtake Williams seem alight. Babe has thirty-eight circuit clouts to his credit.
