Great.it. Christy Mathewson, Idol of the natlon'a baseball fandont over a pan of more than two decadea, and one of the areateat pitcheri the same .has ever known, waa a symbol of the highest type of , American sportsmanship. f Running the full gamut of base ball fame, first as a playing star, later as a coach and manager. Mathewson left the game to an. swer a greater call during the World war; subsequently fought and won a battle for his life, threatened by after effects of his service, and then capped the clim ax of his diamond career by re turning aa part owner and prest- dene or a major league club. But after all the remarkable achievements of Mathewson'a car eer are recounted, the greatest tri bute of all will be paid to hla won derful pitching skill. For on the mound he was a master craftsman, the moat consummate and brilliant artist of all time, in the opinion of. many of the . gamea closest stu- jdents. "Big Six" a sobriquet contract ed from "Big Six Footer" started his major league career with the New York Giants In 1900, and it was during his ' IT seasons with that club that be carved a lasting niche for himself In the twirling hall of fame. Later he became manager for two and a half years. of the Cincinnati Keds; served as a captain In the chemical warfare arm of the American Expeditionary force during the world war: re turned from the itervlce to rejoin bis old team-mates, the Gianta, as a coach: and retired from the game temporarily In 1920, when his health was dangerously Impaired. He came back, again hale and hearty, In February, 1923, to adt cent the presidency and part own ership of the Boston Nationals. First Month's Salary ISO. A graduate of Bucknell college. where he was both a fo tball and baseball star, Mathews-.t broke In to the professional game with the Taunton, Mass., club of the New Vnwlo rwl It- ant n In 1 QQQ npfiviriff a salary of ISO a month for his " .... first season. He lost nis first start by a score of ( to & to the Manchester, N. H.. club. During the season he won but two and lost nine games, tack of control a fault he did not overcome lor several " years handicapping his effectiveness. I Mathewson, however, was not long in attracting major league at tention. Playing with Norfolk, in the Virginia league. In 1900, he won 21 out of 23 games, and was obtained by the Giants, who turn-, ed him back, after a brief try-out, for more seasoning with the Southern club. Later the same year he was drafted by Cincinnati, ,but soon afterward was sent to the Giants In a deal by which the Hiila secured Amos Rusle.

BUBAR OPTOMETRIST Specialist In the fitting of Glasses 11 Jackson St Indifferent success as a pitcher and utility player until 1902, when John McGraw succeeded Horace Fogel as manager of the Giants. "Big Six" was playing first base at the time but McGraw quickly recognized his pitching ability, and took him In hand. His strides to ward greatness dated from that period. Helped Win Five Pennants.' Feats of pitching brilliance too numerous to catalogue filled Mat ty's record during the dozen years In whlrn he ranked consistently among the most effective twlrlers In the major leagues. He was a prominent factor In the nennxnt victories of the Giants in J904. jook. ion. 1912 and 1913; be twirled two no-hit ame, one niralnat the St. Lonla Cardinals, in 1001, and the second against the Chicago Cuba In . 1905; he held Jointly with "Cv" Young and Grov er Cleveland Alexander. A malor league record of winning more than 30 gamea three seasons In a row; hut his greatest achievement was In the world's series of 1905 when he pitched three shut-out victories aralnst the Philadelphia Ameri cana. McGraw ranks Mathewson'a feat In the 1905 aeries aa the greatest n his memory. All five games In that aerlea were ahutouta. Joe Mc Oinnlty twirling the fourth victory for the Giants while "Chler' Bend er blank the gianta for the only trtt'mnn scored bv the Mackmen, jiatnewson had the misfortune to lose two of the moat Important gamea of his career, the play-off contest with the Chicago Cuba for the pennant In 1908 and the decid ing game of the world's series with the Boston Red Sox In 1912. Breaks of the game plaved a big part In both dereats. Mlajudgment of a fly by "Cy" Seymour, Giant out fielder,, waa blamed for the defeat by the Cubs while a costly error by Fred Snodgrasa turned the tide aKalnat the Gianta and Matty In the struggle with the Red Sox. Great Rivalry Recalled. Mordecan (Three - fingered) Brown, of the Cubs, was Matty's greatest rival on the mound and the two had many stirring duels. Brown waa Matty'a opponent when the latter pitched his no-hit game against the Cubs in 1905 but con quered his New York rival in the famous 1908 play-off game. It was r-Mattd that one season when the gianta and Cubs were battling for ifiHif nlniuk 1MUlilatit f a oak first place. President Taft, an ar dent fan, had his private car at tached to the train bearing the New York team to Chicago in or der to see Mathewaon and Brown oppose each other in the opening game of a series. Oddly enough, both of these great pitchers, closed their major Itiff earth nther In a irnmA nn Kpn-1 tember 4. 1916. Mathewaon then was manager of Cincinnati, and the Reda won. 10 to 8, both "old masters" being hit freely. Iniury Halts Pitching Career. Mathewaon suffered a shoulder Injury in 1914 which virtually end ed hla career as a regular on the mound. He pitched Infrequently thereafter and persuaded McOrnw to let him go to Cincinnati during the middle of 1918 to fulfill his managerial ambition. In the deal by which Matty went to the Reds, UhA Clanta .Ian a-amn V,1,1Ia Pnnah and William McKechnie In ex change for "Buck" Herzog, retiring Cincinnati leader, and Wawe Kllli fer. ' . . The Reds finished last In 1916 but Improved rapidly under Mat tv'a leailerNhln. landing fourth place in 1917 and third place the following year, bis last with the club. ! ; Mathewaon responded to the call to war at the close of the abbre viated season of 1918 and served with distinction' overseas. He re turned to become a coach with the Giants, holding that post until 11920, when he became seriously 111 from the effects of being "gassed" during the war and faced a battle for his life, with tuberculosis. Displaying the courage which won him many diamond victories. Matty fought and won the battle for his health during nearly three vears of treatment at Saranac Lake. N. Y. Pronounced practical ly cured, he returned to New York In the fall of 1922 to witness the world's series triumph of his old team-mates, the Olants, over the New York Yankees. I Heads Boston Club. I Restored In health, Mathewson was eager to get back Into the game and when early In 1923, an old friend and admirer. Km II E. Kucha, prominent New York attor ney, engineered a deal by which a New York syndicate obtained con trol of the Boston Braves from 0 cor go W. Orant, "Big Six" was persuaded to lake the club presi dency. Mathewson thus took his place among the few playing stars who rose to executive power In the game, a list which Included Charles Comlskey, of the Chicago White Sox; Clark Griffith, of Washing ton: Branch Rickey, of the St. Louis Cardinals; John McGraw, of the New York Giants; Jimmy Mc- Aleer, A. G. Spalding and John M. Ward. McOraw'a Trlbuts. Mathewaon, baseball experts I agreed, possessed all the attributes of a brilliant moundsman aa well as those of a great athlete natur al skill, keen knowledge of the sport, generalship and coolness un der fire. One of the most popular 'figures In the history of the game, among players and tans alike. "Dig Six" also waa a hern and Idol to tho army of youthful followers of .the national pastime. I "Matty waa wlihout a peer, either before or alnce the days, he waa at the height of his great ness," declared McGraw at one tint In paying tribute to the pit cher. I "He had a rater variety of stuff than an pitcher I ever knew or handled." he continued. "His fast ball waa the equal of Walter Johnson's or Amos Ruale's; bis curve rivalled Nap Rucker's: hs had the 'fadeaway' down to perfec tion: and he utilised his knowledge of batsmen wtth grester effect than any twlrler In the game. He possessed wonderful coutrol, re- markable fielding ability and was one of the finest sportsmen the game has ever known."
