STEERS are very prominent in the major
leagues this season.
Manager McCloskey Of the St. Louis
Cardinals IL satisfied that he has made
a good move IN switching Homer
smoot back to center field and play
ing Arthur Hoelskoetter in right field.
President Hermann is quoted as
saying that sam Crawford, now OF De-
troit. was the best sun outfelder Gin
cinnatl ever had and that the Cincin-
natl club would give $4,000 to have
bin back.
Baseball Is the national sport. II

Montgomery, May 5.-(Special.) -"Lttle
Eva" Wilhelm made the Montgomery
team look like cents plus a quarter this
afternoon before large crowd at the ball
park.
On the other hand Maxwell was I'M
steady and ineffective at critical times.
The run-making was due largely to his
hitting a man and walking others
Wilhelm was as steady as a clock and
kept the others at his mercy all the
time Curtis, the Atlanta man, made two
sensational catches in the left field and
Busch played a phenomenal game at
short, getting more than his share of
hits. Dale Gear made himself solid by a
long drive which was one of the best hits
of the game.
Daddy Vaughan played first like vet
Gran and accepted everything that came
his way. After the game he said that he
had two men in sight for the place and
hoped to land one of them in short
time There was some kicking on Buck
ley, but as a rule he seemed fair to all
sides.

BARONS' AVERAGES IN
FIELDING AND BATTING

The batting averages of the Coal
Barons for the present season, including
the Atlanta series show that oyler is
still leading the team with percentage
of .S56
In fielding, excluding the pitchers, Wal
tiers is leading the Atlanta series having
materially increased his average. Silent
Lou" now famous for his steady consist
ent work at second has accepted 1S1
chances, with but two errors. This gives
him an average of 1856.
The team, not including yesterday S
game, has batted at .2S9, slight falling
off, but still fair rate. The team aver
age in fielding is .967, also less than the
record up to last week.
The only 300 hitter on the team besides
oyler is Horseshoe Smith, who is hit
ting at .924 clip. Wordsworth is next
with .2S3 followed by Aleoek Montgom-
cry and Gear, who have hit at .27O, .253
and .246 respectively. Ginger Clark
brings up the rear with an average of .055.
The stick work of the Barons as whole
varied little last week, but the individual
record changed. A small decrease Is noted
in the batting of Oyler. Montgomery,

FOOD FOR FANS.

| In the last game in Atlanta Wordsworth
made wonderful catch in deep center.
| Wordsworth got a tremendous ovation for
his catch of Jordan's drive to the center
field fence. 1t was play without
peer on the Piedmont diamond With his
back turned squarely to the home plate,
| Gladys ran like demon, looked over
| his shoulder to guage the ball and made
a wild leap forward, clutching the sphere
! with one hand as he crashed into the
| fence The crowd cheered tremendously,
| although the play robbed Otto of a dou-
| BILE, and the fans continued to cheer when
| Wordsworth came to the bench and later
went to the bat. He had to doff his cap
! three times.
| wick" Miller, the veteran baseball
player who was with Columbus In the
Southern league in 1884 when that team
won the pennant, died last week at Louis
VILE, Miller played short for Column
bus and the old fans will remember
him. He was an enthusiast to the last
moment and almost his last words were
an inquiry about the results that day.
Some fans in Little Rock have started
the plan of contributing to FUND Tor
the purchase of players to improve the
team. The offers were made in good
spirit and 1t was proposed to collect sub
scriptions and buy the men necessary to
strengthen the team. The Little Rock
Baseball association stated that they APP
preciated the offers, but had ample funds.
There are a lot of silly baseball rules In
print but among them none is more abb
surb than the one that prevents player,
under certain circumstances, getting com
plete credit for every base he hits for or
for all the runs he makes. If a player
drives in the winning run in the last half
of the ninth with long hit, perhaps
home run, he does not get credit for
home run and he does not score the run
he could were II not for the silly rule,
which DEGREES that as soon as team has
scored the winning run under such cir
cumstances the game ends abruptly. There
is no good reason why batter who
drives in the winning run should not
get full credit in the score for every base
he hits for, and also that every run that
results or would result from such hit
should be put in the score.-New York
Globe.
Another baseball rule that Is never en-
forced or recognized Is the one prohibit
ing players by words or motion to incite
the spectators to any demonstrations.
The rule says that coachers shall not
be allowed to direct remarks to any one
but the base runner and then only in
words of direction. He cannot speak to
other players or use language In any
manner referring to them. This rule was
never enforced.
