POINT ON SCORING

An erroneous and common practice
In scoring has to do with cases in
which the winning run is brought
nome after two men have been put out
In the last half of the last inning. For
instance. runner is on first base and
the batter makes a long enough hit
10 score him. Some scorers give the
Datter three Dagger, some a two bag
ger regardless of how far the batter
ran after passing first base. The
length of the hit should be decided
solely by the point reached By. the bat
ter when the run crossed the plate. If
the batter hadn't reached second then
he was entitled to a single only. and
TO two Dagger II he hadn't reached
third. That is the only possible plan
OF scoring under rule SO, which says.
The base runner can only acquire the
right to base by touching it,

zbYSzKO TIRES TURK IN
GREAT GRAPHING MATCH

Stanlslaus Zbyszko, Polands wrest-
ling champion, last night removed the
last obstacle between himself and a
match with Frank Gotch for the worlds
wrestling honors by defeating Mahmout
In two straight falls at the Coliseum.
The giant Pole was forced to spend an
hour and half on the mat to accom-
plish the trick, taking the first fall In
l:O4:5l with a crotch and half nels on.
and the second in 25:43 with a bar arm
and half-nelson.
1t was case of superior strength
and great natural advantages for
wrestling winning over superior knowl-
match. as nearly 5000 people cheered
him, Mahmout was behind the Pole ex-
haustfng every trick he knew to secure
a rail-. The mountain of Polish muscle
against which he was opposed barely
Judged as he applied half-nelson after
half-nelson and varied his attack by
on occasional toe hold or scissors
The wonderful neck mussles of Zbys
zko and the breadth of his shoulders
made 1T impossible for his foe to get
any sort OF a nelson or head lock
which would prove effective.
When the Turk began to tire, Zbys-
zko took the offensive and wore him
down for the first fall. When NAH
mout came out the second time he was
plainly tired by his previous exertfons
and did not put up strong a combat
as in the opening struggle.
BY his victory the Pole qualified for
a match with Gotch, which probably
