their eyes examined In the spring. n
prominent New York doctor and for
merly a Yale player. who asks hat his
name be withheld, has written the fol-
lowing rather interesting article on the
subject for The Evening World:
Nothing to me is more pathetic than
TO see how uniformly n baseball player
goes into the discard around the age
OF forty, particularly as regards his bat
ting. A patient Of mine last week told
me that he wears spcctacles when he
Is batting. one Saturday he did not
wear them and struck out every time
he went 10 the bat. The following Sat
urday he wore them when batting only
until he got to first base. Out Of
six times at the bat he got one pop fly
to the infeld. n base on balls, two sin
giles. n double and n triple.

Mccormack went down IN the begin

over the eye. and again in the fifth with
a hard right look to the jaw. After that
he was knocked down frequently, and
when he wasn't knocked down he fe.l
down to avoid punishment. Finally tho
referee tired OF the farce and stopped
the fight, declaring Mccoy the winner.
Mccormack acted more like a wrestler
than a boxer and was very glad when
the affair was over. He was badly pun

Would It not be possible as an expert

bats poorly. and try how well he bats
by simply wearing spectacles until he
