strikes Out often.
There is one striking peculiarly about
Stones work at the plate. Although con-
ceded to be one Of the greatest hitters in
The business, he strikes out more than
any other regular player in the league.
The writer has seen Stone fan the air fallr
times in many a game, II the next day
come back with as many hits. 1t Is rather
q strange happening If Stone falls to
strike out at least once during a game.
Why this should be the case with SO good
a hitter is bard to understand.
Jack o'Connor was the first to call at
tention to Stones strlkeout performance,
and his explanation of the peculiarly is a
good one. Stone figures that il is no better
TO hit up a pop fly than to strike out.
There are certain balls that Stone don't
like. He Will often pass up one fairly
good strike n sometimes VI in the hope
of getting one that suits him. O'Connor
firmly believes that many of his strike
outs are due to his deliberation at the
plate. u
Stone already has signed for next sea-
son and Is sure to be a tower Of strength
to the Browns. 1t is a good bet that the
ST, Louis ans would be satisfied with a
team like him. Keep your eye on the
Silent Man" next year, Mr.. Fan, for he's
an Interesting fellow to watch.

The Dominican A. A. basketball players
defeated the Yantacaw five, of Hacken-

The game was a one-sided affair, rs

a good game, but were unable to hold
their men and could not find the basket.
They started off with a rush, but as the

was sealed. The 'Doms'' scored at will.
while the visitors could not find the
basket. They had a little hard luck,
however. Many times the ball would hit
the rim, but would roll out. The score
at the end of the half was 80 to 6.
In the second period they Jared a little
better in scoring, as they managed to total
nine more points, while the home five
gathered together thlrty-eight more. Hem
