The three were George Rohe. the third baseman; Jack I’fiester. the pitcher. and Miller lluggins. Let McGraw tell the reat: “I looked them over and took Rohe and I’fiester. ‘That shrimp.' I said to myself as I sited up Huggfus. 'he's too little ever to be any use as a big leaguer.’ So I passed him up, and lie turned out to be the best of the three."

Later In the season he was reinstated as eligible to throw the wet ball, but he made a poor come back. That one game turned him from a winning pitcher Into a loser. His pitching average for 1920 was 324 as against .625 for the year be fore. when he used his pot delivery all season. “When Cleveland beat me in that game I got the Idea in my head that I wasn't there as a pitcher without a spitball,” says Sothoron. “I had de pended upon it too much. The spit ball isn't the only ball I throw, but it fits into my system. “After that disastrous game with the Indians I couldn’t regain my old confidence, even after they gave me | my spitter back. Confidence Is a thing that any winning pitcher must have. “A pitcher might have a fadeaway as good as Mathewson's, the speed of Walter Johnson and the control of Babe Adams, but unless he thinks he can master the batters who face him he Is hapless. I'm going to be all right again this year." The fact that Sothoron held the Cardinals to four hits and beat them In an exhibition game Indicates he is Ms old self. With the apparent comeback of Sothoron the Browns' pennant chances are looking up. Johnny Wilson Is now called a scien tific champ Instead of the trimmings for apple-pie. • • • Allison Murray has been elected cap tain of the University of Pennsylvania hockey team. • • • Plans are being maile for the re organization of the University of Min nesota athletic system. $1495 $1525 $2135 $2435 $2325 $1735 $2635 22-44 Three Passenger Roadster, $1795 22-45 Five Passenger Touring, • $1795 22-46 Three Passenger Coupe, • $2585 22-47 Five Passenger Sedan, - - $2895 22-18 Four Passenger (>>upe, • $2985 22-49 Seven Passenger Touring, $2(165 22-50 .Seven Passenger Sedan, • $3295 BUICK MOTOR COMPANY, FLINT, MICH.
