of Terre Haute, Ind., tonight In
ifthe moat Important fight of hie
firing career. Taylor will enter the

A releutliwi jinx haa camped on

Recently Orova -surfcrcd defeat
In three successive starts, despite
superb pitching, because In each
frame the Mockmen failed to put
over a single run.
Against Hoston, he drew How

CHOICE REPARTEE
Kays a utility outrielder, who has
broken Into only u few kiuiu'm this
year, to a voterun umpire, who
has Just chased hint for making
too Blrenuoua a protest:
"If you are a good umpire, then
I am ready to i u 1 1 pluylng and
start arbitrating."
Sava the veteran umpire to the
seldom-used utility outrielder:
''Cloori or bad, I'm In the game
every day Nobody knows you are
iu the league. You play so seldom
they don't even carry your name
In the uversges.
"And IC 1 didn't make more and
butler use or my Indicator than you
do or that ornamental glove, I'd
throw it away."
That ended the dialog.
WHAT AII.EP RTRIH?
What, ailed Young Htrlbllng In
hlK bout with Paul Herlcnburh?
It Is doubtrul ir any challenger
ever ninde a poorer right than did
the presence or Hcrlcn'Mch In tlm
heavyweight champion,
"Nothing ailed strlblli.g except
the presence of Rrrlanbacli In the
aame ring," Is the explanation Jack
Delaney offered to mo the other
dny In discussing the right.
... 'llerlenhaclr'fl Kfttllty as a (teal
righler Isn't nppi'eclated," said Dc
hincy. "ills style Is rur rrom Imiprcs
slve. He bus no rnncy root work.
There Is Httlo or no color to him.
Hut lake it rrom me he cun right.
'lie Is courageous His plan or
flKht Is never to retreat, lie has In
mind only victory and he goes
about his work In a methodical
manner.
' "In close, he punishes hlft oppon

Only ti. punch nn the button will

"Ir every fight fan could spend
a few minutes In the same ring
with Puul Herlenbnch, the flsilc
supporters would havo a much
higher regard for his ablllly. He's
a rent champion, always willing to
defend his title."
pitch i.va nits ITEM
Pitching is still the most Im
portant feature of . pennant-wlti-nlng
ball club.
No better example or that truth
could he otrercd than the Wash
ington club or the American league.
Stanley Harris won pennants In
1D24-26 because a veteran pitch
Uitf slnrr, Wiled and abetted by one
or the best rellfer pitchers In Iho
history or the ' gnttic", -Frefl"'Ma'r'
berry, delivered ror him1.
This yenr the Washington club
has railed to live up lo expert opin
ion, hecnuse the pllchlng or the
veteran stars has temporarily ral
tered. Over a stretch or a dozen games
recently not n starling pitcher vus
able to finish his hall game. It is
worry of Unit sort that makes gray
hairs ror a manager and destroys
the morale or the club.
Washington' still hns a mighty
pert hull club and when II gctH
good pllchlng Is bard to beat. If
warm weather ever arrives It Is
just possible that the veteran pitch
ing Starr will show a reversal of
form. If so Washington will make
plenty or trouble in Ihe kite stages
