O'NEIL HAS TEST
FOR UMPIRE'S EYES
Western League President Gets in
LimeIisht by Apnouncement
of Tests He viii Order.

Witnessing the publicity that re-
suited from Prexy Lynch's statements
concerning the testing of umpires'
eyesight, Tiperino, head Of the West
ern league, is getting into the same
searchlight glare himself. He has an
nounced that there will be tests for
Western league umpires. Special at
tention must be called to that word
announced. 1t specializes concerning
the conduct Of the Western league
absent prexy. O'Neill has announced
that the Western league umpires will
have to stand for eyesight tests at
the coming season and that the de-
tective work OF carbon paper will de-
termine whether their eyesight is good
or not.
O'Neilps scheme. announced
scheme" is this: First white can
vast must be white because the
new ball is withstand the plate and
the batsman up against this back
ground and have one of the other
jumps, or alleged jumps, toss the balls
across. Just back of the canvas back
OF the plate and almost touching it
will be a solid wall. This will first be
covered with white paper. and then
with carbon paper. Lines will be
drawn, fifteen inches apart from the
shoulder to the knee of the batter.
The batter takes his place. The
pitcher or alleged pitcher, takes his.
The checkers take theirs and the test
of the jumps eyes is on. Rather the
announced test of the jumps eyes is
on.
One of the strange things about the
system is that O'Neill did not say
whether the Jump with the best eye
sight in this kind of a test would be
hired or the one with the worst.
Judging from the exhibitions of the
umpires of the last few years the tests
would be made only to find the worst

Everyone knows what an explosion
Is, but its opposite, an implosion, is
less familiar. At greater depths in the
sea the conditions are favorable for
its production. At $500 fathoms the
pressure Is, roughly speaking, two and
one-half tons to the square irch-that
is to say, several times greater than
that exerted by the steam on the pis-
ton OF powerful engine.
