PLAYER.

a good chance to get the man. In turn
ing to throw, step in front of the base
and throw regardless of the man COM
ing down, as he will generally look out
for himself and is not anxious to get
hit with the ball.
A second baseman should go for
short flies and depend on the outfield-
ers for the coaching, as they are in a
better position to judge the ball.
The second baseman should go In
for the short throw with the catcher,
sending the ball down for a man and a
runner at third. This play requires
practice and a good throwing catcher.
When running down a man between
bases go after him on the jump, and
get him under full Roadway before
throwing the ball.

base as soon as l see the ball is hit to

BILE play on a ground hit. When tax
ing throws from the catcher to get a
base runner coming from first, stand to
the left of the base IL the throw will al
low, as nine out of ten runners will try
to go'back of the base. Fall back with
the ball, as the unners often do phe-
n0mehal stunts In getting away from
being touched.
Second base gives a player an op-
~portunity to show up better than any
other position, as 1t is truly styled 'the
key to the infield," and 1 believe a
player will last longer In the game in
this position than any other, If he is
a natural and not a made ball player.
All the fine team plays of the game
are made by first signaling. With a
man at third and second, the latter will
usually take big ground, especially
when his run would win a game. A
throw from the catcher would general
ly be a cue for a clever base runner to
go on to third, but in this cas- he is
blocked off by another runner, so that
his chances are all in returning to the
base. l see the opportunity and tip the
catcher to throw the ext ball straight
to the bag and as soon as the ball is
sent in by the pitcher l am on my way
to- the base to head off the runner.
Finding that he is cut off, the runner
will start for third base, and / have no
trouble in getting the man nearest

There is mo buster woman in Mime

dent of the local biennial board. By
virtue of her office Mrs. Dorr is a mem
Der of each of the twenty-four commit

each committee, consulting, advising,
suggesting and encouraging the mem
bers in the innumerable duties which
fall to them. Mrs. Dorr is a woman of
rare tact, sympathy and executive abil-
Iity and matters have moved in a won
lderfully satisfactory and harmonious
way under her guidance. When she
took up the work she had to overcome
"a club apathy, the st. Paul women
really showed little interest in the great
gathering, but Mrs. DORIS enthusiasm
has reused a corresponding earnestness.
Mrs. Dorr has had experience in ex-
ecutive matters, for she was elected
president of the National Federation of

all the visitors will wear state badges,

Altho st. Paul is to be the hostess
city for the biennial, the federation
directory gives only one st. Paul club
as belonging to the federation. This
is rather unfortunate, as it conveys a
wrong impression, for St. Paul now has
fourteen clubs in the federation, but
they joined too late to have their
names inserted in the yearbook. Two
more Minneapolis clubs have joined the
Disco and Ladies' Shakspere club, max
ing eight clubs from the mill city. The
full list Of clubs which have joined the
federation since October, the time of
the annual meeting, is as follows:
St: Paul-The Cleveland School
Mothers. club, Grade Teachers asso-
citation, Lower Town Mothers club,
Civic League, Ladies' Study class,
Thursday club. Eradelphians, Danes of
the Round Table. Hamline Fortnightly
club, Woman club, Art Glass, Cosmo-
politan club and Study Class of Mer-
riam Park and the st. Anthony Park

ment league, Nineteenth Century club,
Tourist club, Parliamentary Law Glass.
This means that there are now forty
three Minnesota clubs holding direct
membership in the general federation.
AS a state organization Minnesota is
entitled to ten delegates. Every indi-
vidual club is entitled to one delegate
anyway and to two if the membership
is over fifty. For each hundred mem
bers after the first. a club may have one
additional delegate.
The matter Of caring for the baggag,
of the biennial visitors will be some

200 or 300 cities will be deposited a
