ular positions Joe adds the coacher
at third base, and asserts his role is
every bit as important as that of any
of the others. OF course. there are
only nine on the side that is in the
field, hut the side at bat, according
TO the new manager of the Cincinnati
Reds, is incomplete without smart

side the third base line.

coacher a very important person."
says Joe. ''He may be OF some ac-
count in catching signs or in disturb

care of the runner at first base, and
that runner is in a position to take
care of himself. But the man over

baseball pretty thoroughly. Innum-
