LEJEUNE MAY
 BREAK A RECORD

Cincinnati, September 16--Most of the ball players confidently expect Shell don Lejeune to beat the Hatfield throw when he makes the attempt during the field day at the Cincinnati park, october g. Lejeune Is real wonder on the long distance hurl and 1t is claimed by many admirers that he really beat the record when he made his remark able cast of 399 feet and some inches two seasons ago. The field was marked off poorly. 1t Is asserted, and Lejeune was hampered by the markings, the angles of his stand and the wind. Hat fields throw was made nearly 35 years ago. Jack Hatfield. who was a great all- round player, and older brother of Gil- bert Hatfield, long afterward a big league shortstop, made the throw across the wind, and with the greatest ease, not even straining his arm or sh builder muscles. The ball went 400 feet inches, and 1t was always be- lieved that Hatfield could have done better had he cared to try again. Any how, the record has stood ever since and no one, while Hatfield lived, took his glory from him. Hatfield died in New York only few months ago, proud to the last of his achievement, as he had a right to be.

PROGRESS IN BASEBALL

Next moss-grown habit-the run for the next base when the call on the bat ter is three and two. Always and in evitably. the man on first or second rushes for the next base when the call Is three and two-it has been so for 30 years and so doubtless, 1t will ever be. And why? Why not use a little sense, especially If your man already on base is a slow runner? If 1t is fourth ball your man is pushed along without the bother of running. If 1t is a third strike the catcher is all primed. and ready, and a double play is nearly always completed on the quick chuck to the waiting base man.
 The ht-and-run is all right in Its place, but the trick of trying to hit when a stealing runner is fairly on his way Is as idiotic as 1t is antiquated. It has been the rule for maybe 20 years Prior to 1890, it was the rule to let the base runner have full leeway, and to leave the ball alone, excepting a swing in the air, made to dazzle thes catcher, and that was the only sensible idea.
 ''The trick of pitching out to get a base runner is also a joke. lively and intelligent runner. once on first, can wig gle his feet and make bluff starts till the fool pitcher has wasted two or three wide balls Then the idiot has to groove them or walk the batter. Even if the runner does fly for second. the pitch-out will usually be so wide, and at such an angle that the catcher will have to make a letter F of himself to get the ball and will fire 1t wild when he does get 1t. And these are only a few of the moth-eaten plays they keep on mak- ing. day after day. Progress in baseball? Sure, but where is t?"

Cincinnati, September 16.-(Special)- ''They talk about progress in baseball, ,' uuoth little Louie Heilbronner for years a baseball scout, and they pratte learn edly about the wonderful advancement in the generalship of the game. Maybe so. Maybe the boys who play the modern game can put over a lot of things our daddies never thought of. but why Is 1t, then. with so much progress, that clubs cling to certain aged institutions that are mouldy, moth-eaten and full of messy .prunes? For example, the trick of pass ing a strong batsman to get wallop at a weak sister coming next in the ar ray. That works-once In a long while. It has saved close games on infrequent occasions. It was all to the good, that trick, in the days when you were not allowed to alter the lineup and couldn't bring in a fresh batsman. and 1t has held over since those times, unaltered Now, what's the answer? The opposing team either chucks in a murderous slug ger as special hitter, and he knocks the tar out of the ball, or the weak batter, outgeneraling the pitcher, works him for a base on balls or makes him groove 1t for killing.
 .oThen again, the drawing-in of the basemen and shortstop in the hope of cutting off a run at the plate. Once in a while they do get man. Seven times out of 10 the batsman drives through the close-drawn field, scoring the runner, and himself reaching first on tap that would have been an easy out, and, in case Of full bases, a double play.

WILLIAM BAND WILL
 SERENADE R. A. BROWN

A unique entertainment will be given tonight at Terrace Court, the second of it's kind in Birmingham. Robert A. Brown will be serenaded by the First Aid Corps band of Vivian. The first event of this kind was given to Erskine Ramsay at the bachelors home several weeks ago. At that affair MT. Brown was very considerate, and assisted great ly in the entertainment of the musicians. In order to impress their gratefulness, the concert tonight will be given.
 The affair will be presided over by Uncle" Jimmie Hillhouse, chief mine inspector. who also presided at the enter tainment given to Erskine Ramsay. In attendance there will be some of the most prominent industrial ren in the Birmingham district.
 Extensive preparations have been made to insure delightful occasion. In honor of those of Scotch nativity, MT. Brown will have prepared today some native Scotch hoe cake and other articles of fond memory to those ot ''bonny" Scot land.
 After the rendition of few selections by the band, the luncheon will be served along with refreshments. Then either Dr. Russell M Cunningham or Senator" Jones Moore will make the first address. To those who attended the last event of this kind the rivalry for the first talk is well understood.
 It Is probable that inasmuch as "Sena- tor" Moore was the first at the Ers'kine Ramsay entertainment, Dr. Cunningham will be the beginner of the speeches to- night.
 Among those expected to attend are MT. Hillhouse. Dr. Cunningham, Culpep- per Exum, Erskine Ramsay. Hinds Pee wy, Murray Brown, Robert Brown, Sen ator" Jones Moore, William Hillhouse. Frank H. Crockard John L. Kaul James Southerlin, and Wilson Brown

EVANS DROPS CANDY

Brookline. Mass, September 16.-The midwest will meet the western edge of the east for the amateur golf champion ship of the country at the Country club tomorrow. The winners today in the semi-final round were Warren Wood of the Homewood club, Chicago, and William c. Fownes, Jr, of the Oak mont Country club, Pittsburg. The losers, both of whom went down on the home green, were Walter R. Tuckerman of the Stockbridge (Mass) Golf club, and Charles Evans, Jr, of the Edgewa- ter Golf club of Chicago. Wood won from Evans by one up.
 The much neglected butter settled the matches today Wood ran down half dozen butts of more than ten feet on the greens, while Fownes stability in that important department won the other match. Q
 'tChick'' Evans will never forget the sixteenth hole at the Country club. over the smooth green of which he lost his chance for the championsip.
 The sixteenth hole is only 125 yards from the tee to the near edge of the green, and even ordinary players make it in three strokes With two holes slowed safely away in his bag. Evans mounted the tee, glanced at the flags in the hole, and pulling out a mashie tossed his ball deftly on the edge of the green. It looked like an easy three, and when Fownes, a minute later, fell short and was danger ously near the edge of one of the traps half the crowd started back for the club house, satisfied that Evans had victory we'll within his grasp But Fownes pitched his ball from the edge of the trap eighteen feet past the hole. Then Evans putted with perfect confidence that the match was his with half for the hole, but the ball ran over. Fownes holed out his putt and Evans missed his by a hair and lost the hole.
 They both made fine drives for the home hole across the polo field. and each was on the green on the second shot, but again Evans was too strong with his
