YANKEE HURLER ONE OF
SMARTEST IN BUSINESS
McGraw Says He Will Not Name Pitcher to Face Yankees
Until Day of Game, but Don’t Fall Dead if He Selects
Nehf to Hurl to American League Champions.
I»y DAVIS J. WALSH.
EY\ YORK, Oct. 4.—Without committing
himself on the identity of the man in ques
tion, John McGraw admitted today that he
would have to step out with one of the best
pitched games of the year in order to beat
the Yankees in the first game of the
world's series on Wednesday nexl. John is of the opin
ion that the man he selects must have everything on
the particular tluy if only for the fact that tli- worthy
Miller Huggins is thought to be gold on the business
of starting Sam Jones, possibly tlie smartest pitcher
in the American league today.
“/ have been gtve.-v to understand that Jones will pitch
the opening game for the Yankees," quotli John. "We
will have to have a great pitcher to oppose that man.
He is a wise old hlrd with a great, curve—slow and fast.
"'»* He knows how to mix them up. Copipty-isons have been
made between .Jones and Johnny .Morrison, ahother great curve ball p teller,
whom we have knocked out almost every time he has faced us. These are
out of order. As I understand tt, Morrison isn’t nearly the pitcher Jones is."
As matters stand, the Giant nom-. However, the players have as much
inee to oppose Jones will remain a
matter of doubt until the series. It
may be any one of four men. namely j
N’ehf. Scott, Ryan or Watson, but j
if the selection were left to the judg
ment of the Giants players, N’ehf
would be the almost unanimous selec
tion. with Scott or Watson held in i
reserve for the second game and j
Jack Rentley tossed In for the third. I
to do with the Mlection of our Mr.
MoGVaw's pitcher as the bat boy.
"I won't make any decision, until
the night before the series," Me
Graw declared. "Perhaps even then
I will not pick my man definitely. It i
may be Nehf or anyone uhu happens
to look good to me. I will say this
for Nehf. lie has been Improving
with every appearance lately.”

Baseball men In general believe
McGraw could kyk further and do
worse. Nehf has proved himself a
fine “money" pitcher In the last two
series and he holds the psychological
edge of having stopped the Yankees
tvery time he has faced them.
But McGraw is In a more .strategic
position than he was at t|gs time last
year. Then It was to be Nehf or no
one. Now, he can start any one of
five men and be assured of a leason
ably well pitched game.
“Our pitching looks better than 11
did at this time last year," McGraw
admitted. “However, you can’t tell
about that. Scott, Barnes, Nehf and
McQuillan came through with splen
did perfurmaces then, but It is bard
to say what my inen will do now.
In fact, doping any short series is
precarious business."

Homer Sheridan, Sioux City mid

tling Monroe, negro boxer, in a 10
round bout that will be tlie final
event of a show to be staged by the
Knights of Columbus.
The Sioux City boxer has been
out of tiie ring because of a fractured
jaw. His enforced idleness ha- cost
him some weight as he tips the
scales now at 151 pounds. His beet
fighting weight, he says, is between
156 and 15S pounds.
Monroe met Chuck Lambert last
winter at Sioux City and was beaten
by the St. Paul middleweight,
j Sheridan is confident of winning
land hope* to get matches witli some
of the best boxers of his weight in
the country.
