Wayne Osborne, the Mission's lanky youngster who alwuys halls the hall gamo when he pitches by stopping to tuck in his uhirt, is the latest aspirant to cuuse an Interested flicker in the obelisk eyelids of the visiting scouts. Osborne's performance las', week against Oakland, when he pitched and won two games in three duys, allowing a total of nine hits in sixteen caused Jack Doyle of the Chicago Cubs to make inquiries. Doylo is really here to wulcli Joe 1)1 Maggio, the Heals' young phenom slugger, but he Is not averse to doing an odd job of looking on the side. Doylo had one complaint to make to Manager "Gabby" Street. The representative of one of baseball's wealthiest units noted that Osborne didn't have the rip on his fast one Sunday' that he had on Friday night.

"What do you expect," retorted the "OP Sarge." "He pitched nine innings on Friday. I had i in working in Hie bull pen on Suturduy, and be pitched again Sunday." Street's Inference was that ovc-A'ork had made Osborne stale, but still good. Osliorne has a digit missing from one of the fingers on his hand, boasts one of the best breaking curves in the circuit when he has his "stuff." and can throw on inspired occasions some weird wigglers that make the best sluggers strain muscles. The eccentricities of these unusual pitches are blamed on hi-t missing finger. Osborne will be rested and paraded later in the week for Doyle's benefit.

Rip Tide and Undertow (Continued from page 9) oneself of these political chisel-ers is to submit to their propositions and charge it up as money thrown away. There is too much credence given to these guya who claim they are politically influential. They perhaps could not even control their own votes, to say nothing of an entire nationality. Here the other day a political chiseler stated that there are 2500 votes of a certain nationality in Santa Crust county and that this nationality would take his say-so as to how to vote in the coming primaries. The cheap mug offered to deliver 2500 votes to a certain candidate for the princely sum of $25.

Can you feature that? But the candidate, offered the votes at below market price, refused to burgaln. What he should have done would huve been to rush frantically lo newspaper office and lay the facts before the editor.

GOLF I the pitch 0Eft 1 FOU THt Mental attitude of a golfer is put to Hie supreme test when he faces a pitch shot over a deep sand trap. A pitch to a well-guarded green is the bugaboo of the average golfer, but the star greets It with enthusiasm, for he knows he run pilch safely to the green. His foremost thought is blow close ho can get to the hole. Jock Hutchinson gave a good example of this mental condition of stars when he won his British title some years ago. He scored a great many threes on par four holes because the pitch over a trap was his favorite shot.

To HT Right elbow MOST I liHve been asked this question numerous times: "What, must be done to hi! from the inside out?" First, as Ilio downswing is started, the hips must bo nhlfU.fl quickly toward the front line of play. Second- and probably the: most important if Hie right elbow has left the side in the back-j swing, it must, return lo the Third, arms and must start the downswing without straight-1 enins tho wrists. 1 do not believe it is necessary to hit the hall from the iu.side to' produce a straight, shot. How-, ever, it is better to hit the ball in! this manlier than from the out i side. The latter action can result! only in a slice.
