ACCUSE HART OF
PLAYING POLITICS
East Orange City Committee
Calls Meeting Over His Head
to lndorse Fielder.

Attempts to induce Charles n. Hart,
chairman, to Issue the call for meet
ing having failed, five members of the
Democratic City Committee of East
Orange have arranged a session of
the organization for Thursday night
OF this week, when the candidacy of
James N Fielder for governor and
Mayor Julian A. Gregory for State
committeeman will be indorsed. 1t
was after he was informed that the
committee intended to indorse Fielder
that Mr.. Hart declined to issue the
call. His attitude, 1t is said, is the
result of Governor Fielder's failure
to reappoint him as a member of the
Essex County Board of Election.
Lively doings are anticipated, as it
is generally believed that Mr.. Hart
will vigorously oppose any attempt to
indorse Governor Fielder. The five
men who issued the call for the meet
Ing did so with a stipulation in the
bylaws Of the Organization which en-
powers that number to call a session
even If thee chairman protests. Mr..
Mart said that he had refused to
issue the call. He added. however,
that he would be on hand at any
meeting even If he does not call it
himself. He would not speak of his
stand on the freeholder situation.

The fire had its origin in the kitchen

guests in the hotel. Metzger and
Frank, who are uncle and nephew,

second, use an underhand whip
throw, as it is much quicker for
double plays. Second should throw
to first the same way when close:
II is much quicker than strai ghten-
Ing up and throwing overland. But
overland to first is the tnvariable
rule for short and third when they
have time enough for It,
If second is fielding the ball near
his own bag, and the play is to that
sack, he should not raise up to
throw, but toss it there with a
side thrust right from the position
in which he fielded the ball. But
this is not advisable for a distance
OF more than twenty feet, because
the velocity of such a thrust toss
is too slow to warrant using 1t for
any but short distances.
If first is fielding a ground ball
on his left side, he should continue
wheeling to the left in order to
throw to second, thus making
complete turn; but otherwise If
he is getting the ball on his right.
No matter that his play of the ball
ts to second, if he is within a step
or two of first. he should slap his
foot down on first after getting the
ball and then throw to second;
thus he makes sure of getting one
man, and will probably have time
for the other also. But if he is sew
eral steps from first at the instant
of fielding the ball he will not have
time to get the runner going to
second if he stops to run back to
With q runner on second. and

considerable distance from second
the fielder should give glance to-
ward the runner on second base be-
fore throwing to first: the bluff
look will scare that runner back to
second and hold him there while
you are making the out at first
base.
With a runner on second and less
than two down, and the ball hit
down to second, he latter should
remember that even though he
fielded the ball clean he can not al
ways get the advance runner AT
third. While fielding the ball, ne
should be thinking of how fast the
ball is coming down to him. of how
deep he himself is playing. of how
fast the man is going from second

BY J. w. Heisman.

Y HAVE already said something
about the advisability Of be-
ing careful not to throw either
too hard or too long in the early
days of practice. You win do equal
ly well not to attempt the fielding
OF swift ground balls before your
hand and eye have both become
e-accustomed to tnem; nor should
YOU attempt to handle swift line
drives or hard throws until your
hands get toughened; otherwise
stone bruises will surely result.
While playing ball always trim
your nails close or a ball will drive
a long nail back into your finger
some day.
Get a good glove or mitt, which
ever you use. and don't wear can
vas shoes on wet ground If you
can possibly afford better ones; or
YOU viii contract rheumatism-a
trouble that will stick with you
long once YOU make a companion
