BASE RUNNERS NOT SAFE

Men Must Hug the Bags to Avoid Be-

From the number of inquiries made
by Norwich baseball players about the
infield fly rule and what happens in
case an infie1d fly is declared by the
umpire. it is evident that the play is
little understood by the baseball pub
lie or the players in general Apropos
to this, as the highbrows would say,
the following in the Boston Globes
question and answer department is en-
tightening:
J. B.-After an infield fly players can
be touched out if off the bases.
The Globes baseball man would be
accepted as authority by all New Eng
land, so that this answer to an inquir-
er makes it plain that base runners
who leave the bags do so at their
own risk on this play.

Norwich Man Claims the Academy
Nine Has Already Won the Pennant.

In the discussion that has been
waged locally over the prospects of
winning the pennant. Norwich man
has raised the point that the Academy
team are already the league champions.
His claim is that there is no call for
Bulkeley and Stonington High to play
off that tie game, without which
neither of them can equal the Academy
standing, should the academy happen
to lose to Buckley again. If the
Bulkeley-Stonngton game We're a post

but, being tie, it simply goes into tho
discard and leaves it impossible for the
Academy to be beaten out for the pen
