Through the dark cloud of gloom
which surrounded Techs football field
there have crept several rays of en-
couragement in this first week of prac-
tice. At the beginning of the week
only Leuhrmann, Loeb and Cook were
slated to return. with a few 140-pound
second string men. The first practice
opened with an unusually large num-
Der of men on hand, and the number
has increased daily.
The work has been fairly hard, but
the warm weather workouts put the
cold weather bottom" to the whole
squad, and Coach Heisman is making
the whole bunch sit up and take no.

So far there has been just a bit Of
kicking, passing, falling on the ball and
going down under punts. but next week

Piggy" Johnson. a quarter back OF
the DOC" Wilson label, has finally
decided to come back, and will report
next week. This leaves the full back
and other half open. Hutton. who has
played good ball and is a back" will

TESREAU HURLS NO-HlT
GAME AGAINST PHILLIES
PHLADET.p EIA

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. New
YORK again won both games of dou-
pie header here yesterday. giving them
t1ve victories out of six contests in
three days in this city. Tesreau pitched
in grand style and after the game was
given credit by the official scorer for a
no-hlt victory, although previously one
hit had been recorded AGAINST him
The disputed play came in the first
inning. Paskert hit a fly near the plate
for which Merkle and Wilson ran. Each
fielder got under the ball. Then fear
ing collision, they permitted the bah
to drop to the ground.
After the game the official scorer re-
versed his decision on the play and
decided to cross out the hit for Paskert
ana give Merkele an error, as the lat
ter said he had touched the ball when
he saw that Wilson would hot run into
him

Balk, Hardest 3*Play'' for Fans,
Is Explained by Expert Monty

.. If he pitches the ball
without keeping one foot on
the slab
g. If the pitcher holds the ball
so long that. in the umpires
opinion, he is doing it to de-
lay the game.
Z. If the pitcSSg gets into
position to pitch without hav-
ing the ball in his possession.
S. If the pitcher makes any of
the motions habitually used in
pitching to the batsman and
does not go through with the
delivery to the plate.
2. If the catcher steps out
side the lines of his position
preparatory to receiving a
pitched ball.
When a balk is decided for a,ny
OF these causes. every base runner
advances one base without liabil-
1ty to be put out, because the de-
claring of a balk automatically
puts the ball out of play If there
are runners on third and first
bases, for instance. and balk is
made toward first, both runners
advance one base. II is easy to
remember that every base runner
is entitled to one base on every
balk, but the batsman does not go
to first.
The umpire is supposed to de-
clare balk without being appeal
ed to, but he seldom has that
chance, for 100000 claims of balks
are made by the coachers for every
balk declared.
The pitcher can not make a balk
unless he is on the slab. A bluff
throw to first base is not balk
unless first base is occupied. A
bluff throw to second or third base
never is balk, but if the pitcher
stands in his position and makes a
throw to any occupied base with
out stepping toward the base. it
is balk
Three Are Obsolete.
The fourth. sixth and eighth
ways of making balks practically
are dead letters. The pitcher is
not required to face the batsman
all the time he is going through
his motions. No one recalls when
pitcher was penalized for delay
ing the game by holding the ball
while on the slab. and every good
pitcher makes some of the motions
habitual to his delivery every time
he makes throw to base.
The third way of making a balk
is for the pitcher to start with
one foot behind the plate and take
two steps in his delivery. In the
detection of this kind of balk,
Clark Griffith is 4 worlds cham
pion. but he seldom gets them
called.
The first, second. seventh, eighth
and ninth ways of baking do not
affect the batsman. When the bases
are all empty and the pitcher makes
balk of the third. fourth, fifth
or sixth kinds. the umpire calls a
ball. For instance, if the pitcher
takes two steps or fails to keen
one foot on the slab. it is a ball.
no matter ii ii is otherwise a
perfect strike.
