NEW YORK (API Ty Cobb, when he wa managing Detroit, sent Carl Hubbell back to th tall timber with the warning that he never would be a big league pitcher If he Insisted on fooling around with hla "screw ball." That aam "screw ball" today 1 the most dreaded delivery In the Na tional league. Upon It hinge most of th hope of th Giant In their approaching World Seriea with Wash ington' slugging senators. If the Senators' bats can ne suencea the tall, slender lefthander from Oklahoma Is the man who will do He Is certain to start two games In the big series and might appear as man times more In relief roles. He 1 the Olants' ace In the noie. One of the Greatest. Pitching records have fallen like duck pin before Hubbell' assault thl summer. Ten of his first m victories were shutouts. Any day ne allowed more than one run his mate began looking around for a doctor. The man must be sick. In addition to the many complete gamea he ha hurled, Carl has been the most active relief pitcner on Terrv's staff. He looks a little frail hut lf an ODtlcal illusion, ho um miraculous control for a southpaw In fact, Terry doesn't regard him as a lefthander In the true sense oi tn word. He's Just a great pitcher," deciarea Bill. "He'e equally effective againei left and right hand batters. I'm glad we haven't had to hit against him thl year." Born at Carthage, MO., au years an", Hubbell kicked around In the minora and majors, up and down, for five seasons before he finally mastered his "screw ball" while pitching lor Beaumont of the Texaa league In 1028. The Olant grabbed him for a ported price of 40,000, and he won for McOraw from the start. Ho pitch ed the only no-hlt, no-ran game or the 1020 major league season.

Into th open, with Jay Horabeek. quarter, Paul Sulkosky, battering full back and Matt Mucaynakl, blasting half, paving the way, Ahonen moves up from the reserve list to fill ths gsp left by Bufkln.
