HE SHOULD BE LEFT HANDED
First Basemen Better With "Off'
Throwing Arm.

CA first baseman should be left
handed,'' urges Hal Chase, the peer Of
all first sackers.
"This is not conceit because 1 am
left handed, but it is a clearly apparent
fact that left handed man can han
die first base more successfully that a
right handler. He has the entire field
before him, so to speak, and does not
have to make the turns that right
handed player is often compelled to
make. Of course, there have peen some
handed, but they were brilliant in spite
Of this fact and not because of it.
GA first baseman must always make
speciality Of handling thrown balls.
He must be able to accept throws of
other players without regard to the
man who may be coming down first
base line from the plate at top speed.
At the same time he must take the
throw in such a way that he will he
able to take the touch the bag and yet
keep clear of the runner.
81 have found it good policy to play
'deep' when there is a pitcher working
who can be depended to get to first
ahead Of the runner. Once heard an
old timer say to recruit who made a
spectacular one handed stab, use both
your hands, signed 'em both !!
should advise first baseman to use
both hands in taking throws until he
becomes absolutely sure. A wide throw
that gets away means lost game.
"My tips to youngsters are:
"Practice all you can.
"Observe the rules of the game.
"Never bait an umpire.
"Behave like a gentleman.
"Play hard to win and never give
up.
"Keep regular hours.
"Let booze strictly alone.
"Don't smoke to excess. Better moi
at all.

The question Of the appearance of
the Curtiss Bros, aeroplane in this
city on Sunday, July 8, is now con-
fronting the Chautauqua board, the w.
c. T. L., at their district meeting here
this week having adopted resolutions
requesting change to some other day,
not deeming it in keeping with Chau-
tauqua sessions to have such an at

II would seem that Sunday is the on

they will accept ting request of the W.
G. 7. U. or have the appearance of the

ever listened to. He maintained his
reputationin very able manner, that
of being one of North Dakota s charm

audience rose and very tittingly the
meeting ended by the singing of "My

speaker was Hon. F. T. Cuthbert, the
gentleman who made state wide re

friends by his heroic and unselfsl
work upon that occasion.
Mr.. Cuthbert made one Of the fines
and most eloquent addresses that ha

of his remarks.
