and advances any runner one base ex-

(A) When runner is on second auC
the hit is made with the assistance O
rot more than two trumps said occu
pant of second base may be entitled t,
score.
| B) Where runner is on first bass
and like conditions occur he may be
| placed on third base.
| CO. Under any other single base hit
conditions runler is only allowed tt
i advance one base.
Rule 13. Two base hits-A two base
hit constitutes five tricks taken by the
| left bower and to not over one trump
| it ad auces a runner from first base to
home.
Rule IA. Three base hits.-A three
base hil is made by taking all tricks
when the highest trump card is left
bower, which necessitates the right
bower being in the deck.
Rule Is Home run-A home run is
MAZE by taking all tricks without the
assistance of either bower, which is
difficult owing to the chances an
opponent has to hold one or the 9TH
err.
Rule 16. The batter-The dealer is
the batter and continues to deal until
ihree ''Outs" are regi-tered against
him. when he then assumes the fielder'S
position.
Rule 17-Double play-(A) The fail
ure of the batter to get three or more
tricks upon attempting to make a hit
constitutes double play and removes
the batter and nearest base runner to
home, should there be any; otherwise
it only charges one out.
(B) For the fielder to order up the
trump turned and then succeed in TAX
ing three or more tricks is also double
play, with same result as in AZ.
Rule Is. Errors-(A) For the field
er to order up or make a trump and
fail to take the required three tricks
charges an error and advances the
bacsman and any runner who might
be on base one base each.
(B) For the fielder to hold no trumps
constitutes al error, as he can make
no attempt to capture ball. But in
this case it does not advance any base
runner except the number he is en-
titled to by the bit.
Rule 10. Turning down the trump
Should the dealer, after the fielder has
passed. be unab to take up the
trump and is forced to turn it down,
the fielder can name the trump, and if
he succeeds in taking three or more
tricks he registers an 'out" against
the batter: If he fails himself he is
charged with an error. If he should
also pass the batter has the privil eye
of either making the trump or passing,
the latter operation counting as an out
against him.
Rule 90 Outs-The taking of one
or two tricks by the fielder constitutes
an out, while any more than two
double play.
RUE q. Triple play-An "order
up'' with three men on bases and no
one out constitutes a triple play. if
unsuccessful is an error for the fielder,
and advances each runner a base.
Rule %. Sacrifice hit--For batter
in lead both bowers in succession is a
sacrifice bit, except
(A) When they constitute the total
mum Der of trumps his hand contains.
Rule %. Base on balls-For the
fielder to lead the only trump card he
possesses, provided il be the queen or
king, and thereby draw bower from
the hand of his opponent, is base on
balls, which advances only the batter
and those he may thereby force up q
base.
Rule "a Earned run-An earned
run shall be scored every time player
reaches home base unaided by errors
before chances have been offered to
retire the side.
Rule %. Str.ke-outs.-Should the
fielder, upon the attempt of the batter
to score by either taking up or making
the trump, take the first two tricks, it
is dc ciared d strike-Out.
Rule 26. Stolen bases-The fielder,
upon holding a solid hand of trumps.
shall not be entitled to a hit, but may
record stolen base, which shall ad-
vance any runner GA base one base
each, and in case runner advances
from third" to home on the play an
error is to be charged. The batter in
either case retains his position until
advanced or declared out. Washing
