WHY PITCHERS GET SORE ARMS
Coach Cy Perkins Of Phillies Says Lively Ball And Slider Cause Injuries
AP Newsfeatures
PHILADELPHIA Coach Cy Per
klm believes he ha the answer to
moat of the sore arms in major
league baseball.
The man who caught more than
1700 games In IS years with the
Philadelphia Athletics blames much
of the pitchers' arm troubles on
the lively ball and the slider.
"The trouble with the pitchers
today begins with their fear of the
batters," says Perkins. "Any time
you get a chance to visit a big
league park during hitting practice
Just watch what happens to any
three batters.
"Usually they take three swings
each. That's a total of nine swings.
You'll find most of the time that
only three out of nine balls hit in
practice go for what we call base
hits.
"During spring training at Clear
water the Cardinals were taking
their pre-game licks. One of the
batters drove a line drive back at
a Cardinal coach who was 'bitching
batting practice. The drive nicked
the peak of his cap and turned the
peak around to the side of his head.
A few inches and the coach who
was pitching would have been hit in
the eye.
"That's Just an example of how
the lively ball can impair a pitch
er's morale."
Perkins is not advocating return
of the ball used years ago but he
would ltke to see pitchers work a
lot harder on their control.
"Years ago, I'll admit, the ball
was deader but the pitchers prac
ticed control." says the usually silent
Cy. Today they practice knucklers
and sliders.
"In my opinion the slider is the
most harmful pitch ever to come
into baseball It's an unnatural
pitch.
"For years every hitter, with few
exceptions, has been worried about
a hook. If the young pitchers today
would spend as much time on a good
curve ball than the effort they put
into a slider they'd have nothing to
worry about.
"You never hear anyone say 'What
a great slider he has.' but you will
hear them rave about a pitcher's
curve ball or his fast ball.
"The slider looks to me as if it's
thrown with an elbow twist. That's
where all your operations are.
There's absolutely no percentage to
the pitch at all."
Perkins believes that Ed Rom
mel, an American league umpire
since 1938, and Kmll iDutehl Leon
ard. 17-game winner for the Phils
last year, are two of the few pitch
ers who ever perfected the knuckle
ball delivery.
"Too many kids are trying It
today and that's another reason
for so many operations," claims
Cy. "Some arms hi the old days?
Why the only time we ever heard
of a sore arm was when come
darn fool told a rookie pitcher to
sleep with his arm in the Pullman
hammock, you know, that little
cradle that's supposed to hold your
personal effects.
"Here's an example of what a
pitcher lacking proper control does
to the team's morale. Suppose you're
playing shortstop and I'm pitching
and I have three balls and one
strike on the batter. Why, the
shortstop gets the Jitters and pretty
soon it catches the whole infield.
"But it a pitcher has his control
and gets two strikes and a ball on
a batter you watch how the short
stop and the rest of the team
perk up. The main thing Is to get
that ball over the plate. Most bat
ters don't hit safely once In three
times they hit the ball, anyway.
The pcrcentttito Is on the pitcher's
side but most of them know It.
"Those who do know It, fear the
lively ball because it comes back at
you like a shot out of a cannon."
Perkins, born In Gloucester. Mass.,
53 years ago has either caught or
hit against some of the game's top
pitchers, ltke Lefty Grove, Herb
Pennock, George Earnshaw, Lefty
Gomes, Red Ruffing, Joe Bush, Ur
ban Shocker, Walte Hoyt and Bob
Shawkey.
During his career he caught well
over 3000 games yet he has fingers
like a pianist. Eurnshaw Is teaching
the young Phllhe pitchers how to
pitch and Perkins is showing the
young catchers how to catch, with
out breaking their fingers.
But when Cy Isn't catching he's
observing what the pitchers are
doing and the deliveries they're
fooling with.
"If they'd only get wise to the
percentages there'd be a lot less sore
arms." he concludes.

Little Jap Could Move In
A Terrific Hurry
By Rl'SS KEWLAND
SAN FRANCISCO, April 28 tP This Olympic year serves to call
attention to some remarkable man-made speed performances of
another generation.
The AAU official record book lists records recognized by the Inter
national Amateur Athletic federation but there is no mention of a
S35 seconds hundred yards run by Minoru Fujii of Japan in 1902.
The late Tom Andrews of Milwaukee. Wis., whose books settle many
arguments In the early part of this century, lists the feats of the swift
Japanese.
In his 1910 compilation, Andrews refers to it as follows:
"100 yards 9 25 seconds. Minoru Fuji! at Tokyo university. Japan,
November 14, 1902, on the grass. Sworn to by officials of Tokyo
university."
Stop watches are split into tenth-seconds now. The world's record
for 100 yards is 9.4 seconds, set by Frank Wykoff In 1930 and equalled
by Jesse Owens and Clyde Jeffrey a
five and ten years later respectively
and by Mel Patton of USC last
year.
According to a record book 38
years old, the Japanese ran it in
similar time before any of the
listed holders were born. Has this
unheard of sprinter been denied his
Just due all these years??
There seems little doubt Pujti
could get over the ground in a
hurry. Andrews' book also notes he
was timed in 10.24 for 100 meters
(109.3 yards), the Olympic sprint
distance. This too would have been
a world's record. The official mark
now is 10.2 seconds by Jesse Owens,
1936, and by Harold Davis, 1941.

Salary Of $4305 Set
For Football Coach
Bob Hendershott, newly-appointed
football coach at Klamath Union
high, will be paid at least $4305 for
his activity during the next school
year and Paul McCall, who will take
over basketball head coach chores,
will get at least $4000.
Base pay for Hendershott, figured
on a scale which takes into consid
eration education and teaching ex
perience, is $3600. and he will re
ceive an extra (705 for serving as
football coach.
McCall s base pay is (3400 and the
basketball-coaching stipend has been
raised to (600. Wayne Scott, Mc
Call's predecessor as cage boss, got
(450 over his base pay for basketball.
However, since basketball is grow
ing longer in season and actually
consumes more of a coach's time
than does football, the pay was In
creased for next year.
If either Hendershott or McCall
take on other athletic assignments
such as coaching a minor sport or
assisting In a major one they will
receive an additional fee for that.
No assistants to either coach has
been named yet and there is still one
physical education post at KU to be
filled the one being vacated by
Wayne Scott. An outside man prob
ably will be hired for that job and
also to handle an asslsuntship in
either football or basketball.

several months ago, and most of
the grapplers have had to take
turns at the Job.
