Two pitchers. one in the Afnéri-
can league and the other in the Na-
tional Circuit. have stepped forth in~
to the footsteps of the late Eddie
Rommel as martyrs laboring in a
forlorn cause. Both are right-hand-
érs and. strangely enough. both are
natives of New York state.

Last season. Ed Rommel, with
tail end club, amassed 27 victories.»
and led his team in percentage by
a wide margin. This year Jimmy
Ring of the Phils and Howard
L‘hmke of the Boston Red '80:: went
along with marks far in advance of
their team's winning average.

Howard Ehmke has been in the
big show six years going to the Tig-
ers in 1916 from the Syracuse club
of the New York state League where
he had blazed a. sensational way
with 21 victories and seven defeats.

Pipp did a liandspring.
"Huggins may have had an idea
that he could keep me out. of the
lineup. but I would have played
even if I had had to kidnap him."
said the jubilant Pipp. “My ankle
is not so good that it could not be
better. The Gia’nts will not get far
if they begin to bombard me with
bunts. The injured part'edoes not
pain me any more and after the
hard workout I had on Monday it
did not swell at all. So I will be
in there. tomorrow \vitlliells on."
Babe Ruth. who u" to have
play6d first base in the event that
Pipp was forced to remain on the
bench. declared that all th plans
he had made for starring in the
infield would be transferred in into
to the outfield. "If I had been
called on to play first base my idea
was to show the fans a. splendid
imitation of George Sisler.“ said
the “'halc. "I also had figured on
hitting at least one home run in
each game. Now that I will be
asked to play in right field I will
shift all my stuff out there
stick to the home run program any-
way. If those Giants can beat us
three times in succession I will take
my hat. of! to them and not wear it
again for the rest of my life. And
how I hate to go bearheaded!"

order. the word that the ankles of
Ruth and Bob Me‘usel had mended
and the announcement from the
camp of the -Giants that all their
quondam cripples had been taken
at! the hospital list—with one ex-
ception—left both teams in posses-

of death last night "put a. damper
