Neither Stribling |
or Slattery May
Defeat Dempsey
That Is, Tf Either of Them
Develops a Feallv Kill
ing Knockout
Punch.
ETV TORK. March
10. — If. »s the
boys in the back
room continue 1o
insist, the man
who will heat
Jack Dempsey
must be an indi
vldua.l with daz
tllnt speed of
hand and foot,
what is to he the
future of Jimmy
Slattery and
Young Stribling?
Both are faster
of a. rattler. Both
growing so rapidly
heavyweights, per
se, within IS months or two years.
Neither of them Is a ‘‘killer'’ of the
Dempsey strain, and you never saw
a really clever man who was.
But the art of hitting can be mast
erod just, as one may develpp a cer
tain amount of ability at dominoes
and wife beating. Even at this early
moment Slattery lias begun to show
Improvement—as a puncher, not as
a wife beater. lie knocked out
Frankie Schoell, a clever fellow
townsman, some weeks ago, ami In
his recent frolic with -Jack Delaney
bis punch somehow seemed to carry
greater authority than before.
The ehances are that Slattery's
muscles and joints are beginning to
art more freely, giving his blows
greater power. The trick of apply -
ing this at just the right moment
wfll follow.
Stribling, overworked last year,
faces the same chance, although
probably he never will hit hard
enough to crack an office safe. How
ever, one can't tell at this Immature
Stage of his development.
Benny Leonard was and Is e. line
hitter. Yet. between 1312 and 1915
he was known as She "Powder Puff
Kid." I<ate In 1915 he knocked out
Joe Mandot, and that started him on
a rampage which only ended with his
announced retirement.
Tom Gibbons scored Just seven
knockouts In 45 fights prior to 1921.
Then he began to knock over his op
ponents in quantities, getting 19
knockouts in 20 fights in 1921, end
today he Is known as a most danger
ous puncher.
Dempsey himself, probably the
greatest hitter of all time, had to
develop th* knockout knack. In
1915-16 such mixed-ale specimens as
Jack Downey, Johnny Sudenberg,
Terry Keller, Andre Anderson, Wild
Burt Kenny and John Lester John
son were blithely stepping the limit
with Jack. Not one of them could
have repeated 15 months later, when
Dempsey was blazing his bloody trail
to the heavyweight championship.

Harris Believes Coveleskie,

Between Them This Ball Season
Manager of World’s Champion* Feels That He Has Bet
tered Hi* Hand and That Yanks and Tigers Must Help
Their Lineup* to Nose Out Senators for League Flag.
R> DAVIS J. WALSH.
A MPA, F a , March
10.—If past per
formances are
worth their weight
in pink sleeve gar
ters, the Washing
ton Senators today
are 25 per cent a
better ball c iu b
than .the outfit
w h i c h w o n the
championship of
the world no later
than last October.
This statement
was made today by
Stanley Harris, the
managerial Horatio Alger of major
league baseball. Stanley’, it would
seem, Is not one of these I view-with
alarm specimens. Quite the contrary,
he pointR with pridf*.
The oratorical gesture. In this case,
is directed toward what might be
termed exhibit A, comprising three
gentlemen who combine age, experi
ence and the ability to fool all of the
batters some of the time. The trio is
made up of Dutch P.euther, Stanly
Coveleskie and Yean Gregg, acquired
in mid-winter deals that cost the club
less than nothing at all in player
strength.
Harris is willing to het hid right
to breathe that Reuther and t'oxel
eskie will win 30 games between
them, and that (iregg will add at
least 10 more.
"They don't represent all the
paper strength we have gained,
however,” quoth Stanley. "We al
most lost the pennant and later the
world's series because we didn't
have an adequate reserve inflelder.
We haxe him now in Mike McNally,
who ran jump in and play second,
third or shortstop over almost any
stated period.
"Rluege and McNeeiy will be bet
ter for the experience they gained
la«t year. The latter broke in at a
very tough period for a recruit, but
with a world's series under Ills belt
lie will play with greater confidence.
Peckliipaugli has completely reeoT
ered. Kuel, •Imlgr, Rice, tioslin and
Zachary are as good as they ever
were, and Waller Johnson and Mo
Bridge still have plenty of hasehall
left in them."
In brief, Harris feels that he has
bettered his hand on the draw' and
Is sitting back serene In the know!
edge that the Yankees and Tigers
the admitted contenders, will he forced
to do likewise in order to beat him.
Ueuther and t'oveleskie, to him, look
like a pair of aces in a two-card draw
Reuther has been somewhat libelled
by critics 'Who have spoken sagely 01
his advanced years. They number ex
aetly 31 and only six of them hav«
been spent in active major lesgui
pitching.
The young man, of course, is not
altogether certain that the age of
those concerned will not deprive ^
hint of his breathing conression.
That is the reason he insist* upon
the past performance clause. John
son is 38, Mogridge, 35; Coveleskie,
33, and tiregg is jaunty 40. The
average age of the nine leading
pitchers is 31.
Ten in all will be carried and the
extra man will be either Harry Kelly,
front Memphis, of the Southern as
sociation, or Jim McNamara from
Wichita of the Western league. The
latter holds a slight but left-handed
lead over Harry. Among extra in
fielders, Spencer Adams, for whom
ttie Pirates were constrained to pay
$30,000 several years ago, has the best
chance to stick. There are six out
fielders and one of them must go.
nice. McVeely, tfoslin and IJebold are
■ ertaintics. "Spark Plug1 Matthews
is back again and seems fated to re
ins in. al* hough he must show cause
to R.o i arlvlc That young man led
liie Southern association «in hitting
