4 DAYS ONLY The daring and colorful spectacle mirroring the notions and the emotions of the ethics and the antics of the fanciful folk of New York's latln quarter By NICK ALTROCK Probably I never took baseball seriously enough No matter how close the game I generally was able to get a couple of laughs out of it Possibly my lack of seriousness often got me out of a serious hole In which poor pitching or bad fielding often placed me One of my pet stunts was to Josh the base runners I believe I bad as good a motion to first as any left hander that ever pitched Nothing gave me great satisfaction than catching a runner off first base I found out by experience that nothing will make a runner take a bigger lead off a base than telling him that he better use a little judgment or bo will he caught napping This was a favorite line with me Have a care or pick you off Tho moment 1 so warned a base runner he would Immediately take a lead of a few feet more Such an act was usually fatal As he took such a lead I would snap the ball to first I have often been asked the greatest number of runners I ever caught off first base In the major league I never nipped more than four runners I have picked off three runners any number of times My best performance was given in a game made whilo I was pitching for the Los Angeles club Called Off tbs Fines Eddie Ashenback In his day tho clown of the minors was in charge of the Sacramento club When things displeased Ashenbac he would always fine some player five or ten bucks which was quite a jolt in the old days I was wild and walked eight men seven of whom I picked off first base Every time I picked off a runner Ashenback would yell so you could hear him all over the park will cost you In the eighth Inning he reached first on a base on balls the only time he had rotten on during the game is one guy you get yelled Ashenback get you If you keep your feet on the bag I replied Whereupon Ashenback who was a good base runner proceeded to take a long lead A quick snap throw and he was an easy out Getting to his feet wild with rage he announced: all the fines are off REDS DECLARE 20 PER CENT DIVIDEND Cincinnati Feb 8 The

called for the specific purpose of ratifying the 922 playing schedule but it was believed It would not adjourn without some liscussirn of plans for effecting restoration of the draft now opposed by several of tne minor leagues Many rumors of impending trades of players for which the gathering would afford opportunity for direct negotiations also to come to town with the magnates The only one of which they appeared to be aware however concerned the New York and IVtroit clubs and even this was wholly conjectural as to the probable players involved The local club president Indicated today that he would endeavor to have the magnates take a definite stand on the draft question Discussing the opposition among the minors to the selection system Griffith declared: is going to come out second best in this and it going to be the majors of organized ic Diamond Classics Jim Vaughan now out of the big agues because of the violation of some rule of baseball was always a great pitcher but seldom strong on repartee However a stock phrase that is now much used was really coined by Vaughan some fifteen years ago At that time Jim Jeffries reigned supreme among the heavyweight pugilists and Stanley Ketchel was a mear among the mitfdleweighta Jim Vaughan was one of the huskiest 1 built pitchers that ever graced the majors Well over aix feet and weighing iround 200 in condition Vaughan would command attention anywhere Jim always a quiet fellow enjoyed fnothlng more than a scuffle in the friressing room One day he and Neal Ball who weighed around 150 started to fool In front of the
