BASEBALL SLANG JARS COURT
Little Guy Bounced Rock on Bean Of
Mutt in Brown Suit, Says
Witness Tom Clarke.

During the past winter Tom Clarke
of Cincinnati was a witness in small
case at the little court in his home in
Corona-a case where some CUronite
accused another one of assault and
battery. Mr.. Clarke was on the stand,
and was asked to describe the trou-
BILE.
Near as | can remember" said Mr..
Clarke this little guy here bounced
a rock off the bean of this mutt in the
brown suit"
The court fails to comprehend, In
terposed the magistrate. "Will you
plase make your statement more
definite, Mr.. Clarke?"
We'll, your honor, as near as can
tell II, this sawed-off gazab with the
checked benny carressed this sun
kissed blonde in the brown rags one
on the dome with a cobble."
"You must correct your language
Mr.. Clarke" the court objected. dc
YOU mean that the defendant struck
the plaintiff upon the occiput with q
stone?"
That's about, your honor, though
don't talk that kind of slang. The
little gick, your honor. plinked the
other dub on the on the-on the-say
your honor, what is your honor's fancy
name for this rummy's bean?"

KNOTTY PROBLEM TO SOLVE
Question Of Standing Of College
Student Who Signs to Play
Professional Ball Opsn.

The National commission the other
day was appealed to for a verdict on
matter which 1t considered was not
within its province. II seems that a
player named Lynch, a Californian.
who has been signed by the New
York Americans, signed while still in
college. He is from St Mary's col
lege, where Chase came from. The
college authorities wrote to the ma
tlonal commission to krow whether
Lynch, having signed to play pro
fessionaI ball, was a professional or
still ar amateur. The commission re-
piled that II didn't deal with such
questions The case Is analogous to
that Of Clarkson of Harvard, Vaughn
ST Princeton and Schultz OF Pennsyl-
vania. These men all signed profes-
sional contracts while still in col.
lege.
This question appears to be one for
each college to settle as 1t thinks At.
Clarkson's act made him ineligible at
Harvard, whether or not he received
any money prior to completing HE
college course Schultz announced
that he had signed, which ended mis-
playing for Pennsylvania 1t Is not
probable that Vaughn would have
been allowed 20 play ct Princeton
again, but as 1t was conditions in
studies kept him off the nine anyway.

A sea captains wife tells this story
of maiden woman, sister OF one OF
the owners of the ship on which she
once made a long voyage. She had

and she and the captain had many
spirited arguments at the dinner table.
The captains wife. meek, submis-

heat of argument her husband might
say something to offend this august
passenger, was in the habit of kick
ing him on the shins to hint at moder'

One day she administered more
vigorous kick than usual, and noticed
an expression OF pain fit across the

Another New Rule.

President Johnson has inaugurated
another new rule this year for all
American league parks. The umplres
are not required to announce the bat
teries or to give the names Of emer-
gency hitters in the game. All club
owners have been notified to provide
megaphone men for that purpose, as
the new ball parks are so large that
the umpires voice is strained toe
