BY QUIN HALL

You often hear about jinxes in the great national pastime. Certain pitch- ora are poison to some or our__yv@i,l- known hitters. George Uhle. 101-‘ 1R- ltance, seems to have the Indian sign on so great n personage as Babe Ruth. The Detroit flihger isn‘t even afraid of the great Bum! _

And the flingers, in their turn. have their own little pet jinxcs. When you see them cooly winding up out there on the hill. you muy not know it but many times they have the li-ttle Jinx devils squatting on their shoulders ready to haw-haw ‘em on the least provocation. ' The Yankees will probably agree that two of the toushest pitchers i" the American League are Jack Quinn,

of the Athletics, and Red Faber, of the White Sox-a pair of vanishing spitballers. From the trouble they've caused the World's Champions, 'fel- lows likt Ruth, Gehrig and Coombs are ‘probably glad that the rule against the moist delivery was put into effect.

On the other hand. life would be decidedly simple if all the tuirlers opposing the Yankees were like Al Thomas. That White Sox (linger, one of the best pitchers in the Amerivbﬂ League, has a. reputation for only nicking the New York club on one occasion during his career with the pale-hosed Chicagoans.

The Cleveland Indians have always had the Indian sign on Herb Pennock, left-handed pitching - ace oi the World Champs, when playing in their own backyard. Even at his best, Pen- nock Just manages to lore when work- ing against the Tribe near their own tepee. _ _

However, the pitching Jinxes are probably balanced by ths__hitting jinxes, and over a season the general result evens up.» »
