I tis just George Crabble. local representative ofthe Great -American Life- Insurance company,' searching for Omahans who have no yet taken out policies in his com pany. Crabble', who used to hurl for the "big boys," and in the winter months "do a turn" on the Orpheum circuit, has sidetracked the diamondNand stage for the insurance business, and according to his business associates, George is one of the best pcupushcrs in the. state. 1 Hails From Dodge, vNeb. The; former Booklyn lnoundsniaii first caught a glimpse of this funny world at Dodge, Neb., .the home pf Joe Steelier, who a one time was king of the heavyweight wrestlers, but now just a citizen of the little Nebraska town. ' Crabble and the Steelier brothers are great pah. During their boyhood days at Dodge the two. grapplers and this former big league hurlcr were the star athletes of the town. ; The Stechersand George were the I main cogs of the the Dodge base ball t,cani, the latter during the twirling act, whileAnton held a ber.th be hind the plate and Joe performed on the second bag. ' The little town of Dodge with its one row of street lights, wasn't enough to hold Crabble. His ability to hurl the cowhide sphere attracted the attention of managers of various clubs throughout Nebraska and Iowa and stfoii-George was gradually grad uating into 'big company." In 1910 he drifted xsouth and was signed by the Galveston team of the Texas league. It was while Crabble starred on the hilltop for the southern club that the Brooklyn scouts gave hira the once-over and at the end of the season ordered to report to the Brooklyn club . Three Years With Booklyn. Crabble remained with the Brook lyn club for three seasons, starting in 1911 and leaving the team at the close of. the 1913 season. While play ing with the Robins during the year of 913, Crabble injured his left shoulder Gliding into second base.

Easy. v Every country in the world isa one-handed Ination. Every tighter Ts either right or left-handed with exceptions like Dempsey and Leonard, who can probe foT chins with either mitten. Think- of the speed of Walter Johnson . if he threw with both arms .'instead of one. Every ball player is a mono plane with he usual , exception of Eddie Roush. This speedball in jured his left arm, was dropped from the payroll, and made, himself, a rjghthander by feverish practice. The backstroke in tennis is a result of one-handedness. The bridge at billiards is also caused by'- the same ailment. Hoppe uses both hands and rareiy bridges. Most poker playe.rs discard with the wrong hand. The ability tc? manipu late both arms would increase the player's radius in any game but the bounding dots.. The only thing to do with your hands in that league is keep 'em off. There is one gaifle .that would make this borough the greatest iwo handed nation in the world. That -game is hand ball. All fight ers play hand ball in training to de velop footwork, both arms and-misjudgement of distance. Jim Corbett wa one of the good players at the old Olympic club in San Fraucisco. iimmy Britt started there at hand ah and Willie Ritchie- still plays there when not dividing his automo bile tjre profits by the wonderful California climate., John L. trained for the Corbett fight at Phil Casey's hand ball court in Degraw street, Brooklyn. There was a bar at the non-combatants' end of the club and, apparently, John didn't miss any thance to use his elbows. Jim Dunn, a prominent heavyweight and athlete qf that period, was a great hand ball player and his "sort is one of the prettiest two-handed tossers today. Jim Dunn, jr., is now a judge in Brook lyn and confines his efforts to ex hibition matches at the Crescent club. Incidentally, all the best players are located in Casey's old court and the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. This may le news to the rubber ball players, but the real hand ball is played with leather ball about the ire of a tan gerine.
