CORK BALLS STIR
UP A SENSATION
American League Has Been Playing
With Non Regulation Spheres and
There May Be Trouble.

II has come 10 light that a consid-
cradle percentage of the Reach balls
which have been sent out for general
consumption this year have been com
prised OF an innovation In baseball
construction, the core. instead OF solid
rubber, being cork with rubber
coating. The discovery was first made
in Boston and has since been verified
in several other cities.
II is urged for the ball that the cork
is more resilient than rubber and
makes the game consequently. much
more interesting. On the other hand,
II is admitted that the cork loses its
shape much quicker than the rubber.
The situation becomes increasingly
interesting in view OF the fact that
the American league last winter re-
fused TO accept a proposition made by
the Reach people who wanted 70 In
troduce cork ball as the regulation.
As many games have been undoubted-
ly played by the teams using the cork
balls, II is generally believed possible
that losing clubs which have a clear
case may protest the results. thus
throwing the entire schedule into con-
fusion.
Whether the ball manufacturers
have been Intentionally substituting
cork for rubber balls or whether the
condition is the result OF the manufac-
ture Of large number of cork balls
in the belief that the league would
see fit 20 adopt them as Official is
