' Most every ball player has his hobby or peculiarity, and Ed Walsh, the star heaver of the Chicago Americans, has one that Is just about the limit. Walsh doesn't pay much attention to the shut outs he records, the sanies he win, th hits made off him or the bases on balls he passes out, but he does dote on his strikeout record. Recently Walsh pitched against Cleveland and mnnnped to win. more through his masterly pitching than hrough the efforts of his teammates. A certain baseball critic happened to meet Walsh after the game and re marked that he was forced to the limit to win. Valsli replied that hard luck wns pursuing imn tins spring nmt that he should have won all but a few of the games In which he worked but for tough breaks. "Ry the way. how many games hsivf. you won and lost this year?" the big fellow was nsked.
