LIVELY BALL HAS
IMPROVED BATTING


Pitchers are still complaining about
the new ball. Here's what one big
league twirler has to say of the handi-
cap imposed upon them by the new
sphere:
$50 far as can see there isn't any
thing in the talk about the ball being
larger or heavier than last year. To
the pitcher the ball has just the same
weight, and / have BEEN able to do
Just as much with 1t as ever. Baseballs
always vary, no matter how live or
dead they may be. Some of them will
respond to almost anything pitcher
wants to do with it, while others
act in a contrary manner. There are
some new balls never touched with a
bat which it is almost impossible to
get to curve or break. Then there are
others, identical in every way, to the
eye, which pitcher can make talk.
But the new ball, or the ball we are
using now, is different. The present
style of BAH puts pitcher in the hole
all OF the time The pitcher does not
dare to let the batter have the chance
at it that we used to give with the
dead ball.
"Last year we could make a batter
hft,.. as the expression goes-tllat is
pitch to him in such manner as to
make him hit 1t in the air. Now If a
pitcher does that the chances are good
that the rubber or cork, or the com
bination, viii make the batter pound
It over the head Of an outfielder or hi
IL far into safe territory. The balls
are so lively that a tap sends them like
bullet, and the infield hits this year
will outnumber those of any season ]
have ever played.
1T is dangerous to pitch out TO 9
good batter. 1t used to be that the enc
Of the bat did not give good hit, save
occasionally, but now one caught or

VENEZUELAN UMPS
TAKE OUT POLICIES

In Venezuela, says Armando Marsons,
the Cincinnati outielder, who has rel
atives there, the people are just as
wild over baseball as in America or
Cuba.
The umpires down there, says Ar
mando, are crafty Before every game
they take out accident insurance poli-
cies. The most violent rooters in Vene-
zuela are the president and treasurer
of the local insurance companies and
they take no chances, They guard and
protect the umpires, defending them
against the crowds, and at the same
time preventing any sudden demand
upon their own treasures.
.T fail to unnerstan' de American
spich," complains Senior Almeida, the
Mexican player on the Cincinnati
team. "Senor Mclean he say to me

The game was fast from the initial
sound of the referees whistle up to
the last. Both teams were unneces-

locals showed up brilliantly both in
teamwork and in shooting baskets. In
the second period the visitors held
their own with the locals, and had
many opportunities to throw baskets
only to miss them.

Hans WAGNER
Defends GAME

Pittsburg, Jan. q Somebody told
Hans Wagner today that it required
lots OF nerve to play football, but that
almost any chap could play baseball.
This reused Honus to oratory. He is
football fan himself, just as enthu-
siastic about the game as Christy
Mathewson, and, in fact, like Matty,
likes to watch a football game more
than he does baseball game. But
he refused to admit that football re-
quires more nerve than baseball
There are hundred little spots in
the game" said Wagner, where the
streak will show in a man who hasn't
the nerve. Baseball has no room for
men who are shy on nerve to stand a
strain, or take the bumps. Doesn't it
take little nerve to stand up to the
plate and have the terrible speed of a
hard ball whizzing past your forehead? +?
Doesn't it take nerve to step in when
you don't know what's coming?
Doesn't it require nerve to slide into
a bag, when the bali is coming at
you like bullet and you don't know
but that it's going to bound off your
head? Doesn't pitcher need lot
of nerve to stand the gaff in losing
or close fight? ] should say yes.

Nearly 800 spectators were crowded
