But under the. direction of Captain Hinshaw a schedule has been arranged with neighboring schools, Muncie Normal,Wilberforce and Dayton - uhi versity. Coach Mowe feels that there is plen ty of baseball material in school and! has already discovered some of it ini the workouts before vacation.

The next season be altered his hurling style to get more zipp into his fast one with less effort and proceeded to annex 23 victories and lost but 7 games. . .. He joined the Cubs last fall and in the few chances he got in the box showed that he has courage, plenty of stuff and can at least learn how to handle it.
