SCRIMNIAGE AT MANHATTAN
Picked to Start As One of Halfbacks, Will Not
Be Able to Play in First Three or Four
Games ~— Hard Luck—-—- Broke Ankle in
Baseball
ANEW YORK. Sept is. ——Cosch
McCarthy. mentor of the Manhat-
ton College eleven. will have to
change plans for the opening game
. with Holy Cross next Saturday. as a
result of two additions to his hospi-
tal list. secured in a stiff scrimmage
with New York University Thurs-
day.
Most regrettable was the accident
to Thomas "Hawk" Skidd. chosen
to start at one of the halves. who
suffered a broken bone in the hand
A . which will keep him out of the first
three or four games. Skldd broke
his ankle during baseball practice
last Spring and had pust rounded
" Record Font
-Ths lively ball of the majors has
been considerably curtailed but it
will still travel if properly sacked.
Had the good luck to umpire a
recent game between Philadelphia
and New York in which three suc-
cessive batters made home runs.
While that merely ties a. major
league record. I doubt it the feat
was ever before accomplished on so
few pitched balls. Incidentally, each
ball cleared a different part of the
fence.
Sam Gray. star of the Athletics'
pitching staff. was serving them. He
threw a. total of four balls to Bub
Mousei. Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig
of the Yankees and three home runs
were the result.
Bob Mousel hit the first ball
pitched to him a curve inside. into
the left field bleachers. It went
into the upper tier and was 11. real
home run on any man’s graunds.
Babe Ruth was the next batter.
Es fouled off a. slow curve. then
hit a fast ball in his "groove". on
a. line over the right field fence.
It was a line drive home run. not
I. towering fly. as, are many of
Ruth's circuit clouts.
Lou Gehrig connected with the
first ball pitched. a fast one on the
outside. and drove the ball over the
center field fence. It was the long-
est wailop of the three.
e t t
{three heme runs by successive
batters on four pitched balls off one
ofthegnestest pitchersintho ma-
lore is truly a meet. unusual feet.

Fear of Jinx
Pitchers are superstitious. Sam
Gray is no exceptionto the rule.
. After MeuseI had made the'llrst
home run he walked to the plate
and addressing the umpire, said:
“Don’t give me any more of those
home run bails." Reaching into my
pocket I selected a. ball at random
and tossed it to him.
After Ruth had weakly fouled the
first pitch. he proceeded to hit his
circuit drive. Walking up to the
plate. Gray. half in jest and equally
serious. said:
"Let me see if I can pick one that
won't turn out to be a homer." With
into splendid physical form weigh-
ing about 185 pounds.
Even more painful was the lnqury
of Doehanz. the promising fresh-
man tackle. who is troubled with s.
chronically -recurring shoulder
strain. which was so badly affected
in the course of a hard fall that. it
was necessary, to have a physician
administer ether to aid in setting the
shoulden Showing a. lot of grit.
Dech’anz appeared at prstlco yester-
day and went through light work.
McCarthy will lighten the drills
from new on in fear of more casual-
ties. Hassen will assume the bur-
den of the“! burning with Skidd out.
a smile I held four balls in my hand
and he. took one of them.
Lou Gehrig proceeded to immedi-
ately knock it out of the park for
the third successive home run of the
inning. As Gray watched the ball
pass over the center field fence-.119:
remarked.
“Guess they are all the same, any
one will do.“ Again I tossed one
at random. Ben Pachasl dented the ‘
fence for two bases. It was as hard
hit as any of the three previous
homers.
' t t
‘In all his career I dOubtif Pitcher
Sam‘ Gray experienced quite the
same feeling as he underwent when
the trio at Yankee sluggers connect-
ed for successive home runs.
Speaking at Babe .
Speaking of Babe Ruth. perhaps
it was a. fancy line and an indefinite
suspension that was needed to bring
the big fellow back to earth.
I have been umpiring with the
Yankees ever since Ruth was rein-
stated and I do not hesitate to say.

NEW YORK Sept.
Mullins will not accept the agree-
ment submitted for his considera-
tion by the State Athletic Commis-
sion in its efforts to force a bout be-
the heavyweglht title. This was the
'announcelnent made yesterday by
Mullins on behalf of Wills. The vet-
eran manager asserted that the pro-
visions of the agreement do not
come 11 pto the expectations of either
himself or Wills. and he added that
he plans to visit the cummission at
its next meeting Mondya mid make
known his attitude
Mullins was expected 'at yester-
day‘s meeting of the commission. He
buses his objections to the agree-
ment on two points. He says that
the document does not specify where
a Dempsey-Wills match is to be held
and that it does not assule him of
the financial protection to which he
nonalders himself and his boxer en-
titled if the proposed match is doe
faulted.
Mullins said he will insist that
Dempsey nad Wills fight here If Pro-
tories to the original agreement. gets
the match. A bout in New Jersey
would not appeal to him. he said.
Furthermore. he declared. he will
that the brand of ball he has played
in September far surpasses anything
he previously hall on display.
During the 10 day suspensioA
Ruth watched his diet. worked bar
every day and took off at least 1
pounds. It seemed all of it cam
off .st the waistline. As a resul
there is much of the old- tim
rhythm to his slving.
When I commented upon his apA

my complimentary words, because
he replied: .
“Am training just like one o:
