pitcher in baseball history is dead The 75-year old Grove a native of Lana coning Md died last night while watching television at the home of his daughter-in-law Mrs Robert Grove where he had lived for 14 years The funeral service and burial will take place at the Frostburg Md Memorial Cemetery on Mon- day One of the giants of an era which also included Babe Ruth Rogers Hornsby and Jimmy Foxx Grove a member of baseball's Hall of Fame led the American League in victories and won-lost percentage four times each in strikeouts seven times and in earned run' average nine times He was the star pitcher for Connie Philadelphia teams which broke the dynasty of the Ruth-led Yankees in the late 1920s and won successive pennants in 1929-30-31 THE 'ATHLETICS won! the World Series in both 1929 and

walking no one but 1 recording only one strikeout IT WAS PLAYED in the privacy of the creaky old- Central YMCA located at the corner of Missouri and Oregon Streets It was volleyball played by a group of youngsters that' included Bud Lassiter Lee Floyd Mike Devlin Donald Lance Greg and Doug Ramsey and others i Vernus Carey the physical director coached them as he did in basketball swimming and gymnastics They played other in the Southwest and Chihuahua Mexico Having beaten the latter team the El Paso team claimed the volleyball championship of Northern Mexico The team almost entoto (7 of 9 of them) into a kindred sport basketball and helped Marshall Pennington win a Border Conference Championship at UT-E1 Paso none of those young volleyballists ever thought it would become a spectator sport But a number of them are around today to see the El Paso Juarez Sol shortly launch a home schedule in the International Volleyball Assn at the Coliseum Bud Lassiter will spectate the games with in- tierest He played it long after he got out of college a gamdtbat can be as exciting as basketball he says 1 Bud says Russia and Japan play for the Olympic volleyball championship in 1972 on television and it was just as fascinating as watching a championship basketball game Jf: Honest Man's Game TAKING A CLINICAL approach to the game for the benefit of the initiated Lassiter brings out some of the foiling points: It has six players to a ride with fie -three tallest players up front They are the spikers Only they can servethe ball and they must hit the ball with the palm or side of the hand: The setters get the ball to the spikers with a maximum of three passes Anything over that and the loses service Only the team that serves can score Blockers are the defensive stars The net is eight feet high and five' feet from the bottom part to the ground Players are not allowed to touch the net and the referee cannot always see if this rule is violated where the honesty of volleyball comes said Lassiter' called fouls on ourselves like -a 7 golfer penalizing himself i 'Volleyball may not require as much endurance as basketball as far as speed is concerned But good jumping ability is necessary in both sports Team unity and coordination is necessary Each player must have quick reactions Every player has a specific job to doi Teamwork is most essential" Bloody Nose Hits THE GAME THAT the ITA will play is called power volleyball which is a little more violent than is played in the schools the and on the beaches Like basketball though intended to be a non-contact sportOne risk is getting a volleyball slammed Into your face gotten a bloody nose out of said Bud volleyball hit at full force travels about 120 miles an hour never heard of anyone being seriously hurt by being hit with the ball Most of the injuries come from the players jostling for position They bump into each other and that might cause some knee and ankle Several kinds -of deliveries can be made bythq sinkers concludes Lassiter in his instructions They can serve knuckleballs round house curves or slicers that might resemble sliders in baseball in addition to straight fast balls But certainly no spitters stars including Grove The 01681 lefty suffered a sore arm in his first season with the Boston Red Sox 1934 and had an 8-8 record He Went on to post successive 20-12 17-12 17-9 14-4 and 15-4 marks with the Red Sox before retiring on Dec 7 1941 In his' heyday the- 6-foot 3-inch 205-pound left-hander was as close to unbeatable as any pitcher in the history From 1927 through 1933 he compiled successive 'marks of 20-12 24-8 20-6 28-5 31-4 25-10 and 24-8 He led the league in strikeouts for seven consecutive seasons and prided himself on the fafet- that he yielded only nine homers to Babe Ruth in 10
