This year, that Some body is Carl Hubbell, the Giants' ace southpaw, who has been hang ing a string of impressive victories at his belt since his first game of the season, when he beat the Boston Braves 1-0 in a startling exhibition of top notch hurling. But it wouldn't be right to com pare Hubbell with Mathewson. Hubbell is nowhere near the rank of pitcher that Mathewson was, al though he may get there. There is plenty to say. however, in compar ing Hubbell a so-called screw-ball with Mathewson's famous fade away. HubbelL incidentally, is base ball's outstanding freak pitcher to- MT.

Fifty-five students were also awarded the perfect attendance certificates. day. He has built his success on the tossing of a freak ball, just as Mathewson did. Few moundsmen have lasted lone depending on that brand of delivery, but Hubbell seems to be one of the annointed in. that respect. We can recall only Cy Moore and his sinker ball in the days of '27 as a similar example. Hibbefi's screw-ball is very much like the Mathewson fadeaway. Vet erans even insist that it is the same thing under a new monicker. It is true that the ball breaks the same way as the fadeaway. It dips under and away from the batter1 fades out of reach of the swing:. Carl himself has described the way he manages it. Except for a certain spread of the fingers, the ball is held the same as for deliv ery of a fast ball: but it is the wrist action that breaks the ball at the proper time and place. Hubbell is a left-hander, and so he twists his wrist inward towards the head as he lets the ball flv. A curve ball is thrown with an outward flip. Among other deadly qualities of this screw-ball is the fact that it is even more effective against right handed batters than against south paws. When a righthander is up, the ball fades inside his swing. Hnbbell's mastery of his screw ball came through constant prac tice, it oiant come to htm natu rally, as most freak deliveries do. Hubbell lost many a game in the years when he was struggling to get that ball just the way he wanted it. This accounts for his poor rec ord when he was with Toronto. But now, apparently, he has suc ceeded in making the ball dick to his liking and the Giants cant get enough of it. Indeed, Tommy Clarke, Giant coach, will go so far as to tell yon that HubbelPs screw ball is even more venomous than Mathewson's fadeaway. Mebbe soJ OwntfM. Itll. Kla tWam IrtntlraU. Xar.

Big Buck New some, Los Angeles right-hander, allowed Portland only three hits. and kept those so well scattered that Portland threatened only once. In the eighth inning. Sam Gibson, on the Portland mound allowed only four bits in the eight innings he pitched be fore giving way to a pineh hitter, but Portland's lone error helped the Angels score their first run in the fifth inning. Cronin singled, Kies was safe on an er ror, Newsome sacrificed, and Cro nin scored when Statz filed out to right field. The Angels picked up their second run in the ninth Inning when Gudat doubled, Oglesby singled and Cronin sacrificed. In Portland's eighth inning threat.

In the south ern division Stayton remains un defeated and in the northern di vision Mt. Angel and Aurora are in the same enviable position. One reason there are two unde feated teams in -the northern cir cuit is that they have not met; and the queer thing about that is that unless somebody else stops one of them, or unless some post poned games are played, they will remain undefeated until July 2. The reason is that May 14, when they were to have played each other, was one of those rainy Sun days when practically nobody played. Tomorow's opportunities to stop these Juggernauts fall to Hubbard, which will entertain Mt. Angel, and Monitor, which will play host to Aurora. Lone Elder goes to St. Paul and Brooks will be idle. In the southern division Stayton goes to Sublimity, which will take Its turn at trying to halt the ath letle club boys' advance, Tnrner will play at Jefferson and Mehama at Scio In the Linn county league where Mol&lla Buckeroos wer looa Harrisburg, Sweet Home and again yesterday.
