at the county court house, is giving
excellent satisfaction. The officials
report that the court house is being

work of the new janitor. Although
he has the upper and lower floors and
the annex to keep in order, one would
judge from the appearance of things
that he was an old hand at the busi-

FEWER DEATHS
ON GRIDIRON
Football Promises to Show
Fewer Fatalities This
Year Than Baseball

Football is likely to be robbed OF
its most gruesome distinction; that of
being the deadliest of all outdoor
sports. according to statistics of base
ball fatalities for the season Of 1910,
compiled to-day. The list shows
twenty-One baseball fatalities for the
year, which is within seven Of the
number of football deaths recorded
last year.
Football deaths for the present sea-
son are proportionately far below the
record for 1909 and it is likely that
this seasons baseball deaths will ex-
ceed the number of victims claimed by
football.
One of the baseball deaths was that
of Umpire Philip Forney, who was
hit over the eye with a pitched ball at
FL Reno, Okla. Most of the deaths
were from players being struck by
pitched and batted balls and were
among the more unshlled teams.
Three of the deaths credited to the
game were not directly baseball IA
talities, being due to a riot between
negro teams in Georgia.

FEWER CALLED
BALLS NEXT YEAR

Reduction of the number of called
balls entitled D.---luan 20 lrsl ...-l-
from four to three and a revival of the
earned run are among the changes be-
ing considered by the baseball mag
mates for the betterment of the game
before another season rolls around.
That the earned run will be restored
TO official good standing as a partial
means of determining the relative
standing Of pitchers in the American
League, It is asserted by officials now
| in Chicago, is practically assured
! Whether or not it is brought back tc
life in the National and other organi.
cations the officials of the American
League will make the revival and car
do so single-handed, because it is Z
matter affecting the official scoring
and tabulation Of pitchers records
] but not the playing rules. The re-
duction of the amount Of waiting 3
batsman will have to do to get a base
on balls is a different proposition in
which it will require concurrent ac-
tion by both major leagues.
