and it is seldom that there is such

secure the records for fifty. sixty and
seventy-flve yards any time he goes

make the attempt while he is in such

Limit Rule Suspended.

The National Leagues team limit
rule has been indefinitely suspended
by the Executive Committee. The ac-
ton was taken in Difference to the
protests of a majority of the clubs,
it being held that the rule was not
only injudiciouS in state of war, but
an injustice to the many young play
ers now being developed by the var
ious clubs. Under the circumstances
the Executive Committee acted wisely
in suspending rule fit only for peace
times. Originally the rule was a blow
at the farming system, which has
fallen iHto desuetude..
The Jennings daily record., 1902-07-24
Teams Easily Ratified.

"There is one thing ! notice in par
ticular this season In the national
league teams, and that is that most of
them are apt to get ratified quite easi-
ly," says Tim Murnane in his base
bal gossip.
They will play as lively as crickets
until they strike snag. and then
away goes the bunch. pitchers and all.
The clubs with the level-headed
pitchers have the best of it. especially
away from home. Few of the young
pitchers can stand the bowling of the
bleacherites and are very apt to jump
their trolley.
Ed Hanlon has been wise to this
fact, and has made a special effort to
have seasoned pitchers on his staff.
No man can get more work out of a
pitcher than Ed Hanlon. and no mana
ger is more careful to see that his
pitcher is on edge before he goes in
the box.
IF you look up the old scores you
will find that fewer runs are made off
Brooklyn than any other club. This
may not be the fact this season up to
date, as he has been working with a
very weak aggregation, but his object
has been to keep the opponents score
down. and he starts out to do this
with his pitchers.
This is where all teams must be
strong. these days, especially in the
American league, where the hitters
have congregated and make life mis-
cradle for the pitcher without brains.
"Brainy pitchers are hard to find,
but when you get one he is sure to win
out with fairly good team.
Il have seen all the teams of both
leagues play except Cleveland, and
can find nothing that looks any bet
ter than the Chicago Americans. They
have the brains. the speed and the
nerve and with Charley Comiskey to
do the outside work. there is no good
reason why the White SoXs' should
not be first choice TO: the. table stakes
this fall. | would not be surprised
to see the fight corre down to the
same clubs that fought it out last sea
son-Boston and Chicago.
"Outside of Dineen and Young, Col
Inns has little in the way of pitchers
to tie to, and club without four first
class pitchers in the American league
is weak this season.

Miss NethersoIe and Color.

The hues in Miss Olga Nethersoles
gowns in "Sapho" have their signifi
cance. for some time ago she con-
fessed to an interviewer that she
feels intensely in color Red to
her always means passionate love,
hatred. vengeance emotion in
which the blood is active. Pink she
wears when she has to play scenes
in tender mood: but when the char
acter is of neutral temperament, or
"hovering on the unknown eXpanses
of life where sadness is the prevail
ing note" then gray is the only wear.
This significance of her dress color
makes her to indicate variation in
mood as the action goes on, for in
The Wife of Scarli she first dressed
the heroine in flowing robe of to-
mato red, and then. as the passion of
the woman waned, changed the dress
TO one of yellow.
