HERE are only three bases on

the title of second baseman and the

about as much the business of

When the latter Is away after q

try to put him out at the base he
has just left. On this play out
fielders should come in rapidly and
take part in covering bases and
backing up generally. They can do
nothing by remaining in the out
field save act as spectators, and
that is not what they are In the
game for.
In no event, however should the
catcher leave home plate to take
part in any such proceedings, I'M
less the runner is caught between
third and home, and he has to fol-
low the runner back toward third
with the ball. But in this case
the first baseman should come in
and cover home. The first sacker
can do nothing by staying on first
base, for the runner has long since
passed that station. Even IL the
bases are full and there is a runner
on first, the right fielder can come
in and cover first in the absence
Of the regular guardian.
WHEN you back up a base, you
had best get something like
30 feet or more behind it. II you
stand within a short distance of it
and the ball goes through the
hands of the man covering that

ing able to catch it on the fly, for

When throwing to any base. par

Early Closing of the Season in

Who Win Big League Berths

himself of the usual greetings, but
his puzzlement was visible.
Don't know me, do your" said
Bill.
Indeed, yes; know you WELL"
half prevaricated the Atlanta pres
ident.
"All right who am II" was the
embarrassing retort.
Everybody was grinning by that
time, but nobody volunteered any
help.
"Ah, yes" finally guessed the To-
cal mogul, you're from Memphis"
But that wasn't the worst of 1t,
for one of the Chattanooga baseball
players slipped up few minutes
later, and, pointing at Schwartz,
asked, who's that tall chap lean
ing against the post?"
Schwartz says he's going to wear
his uniform to the next meeting.
THESE happenings reminded Bill
L Schwartz of funny one. Said
he: Last season when New Or
leans was in Nashville for the last
trip of the season that big bone,
Spencer. was talking to Fleharty
and discussing baseball as usual.
Finally Spencer brought down the
house by asking, Say, Earl, who's
your manager this season."
Schwartz also exhibited with
great glee a letter he had recently
received from RED" Munson, for
mer Nashville catcher and now an

any symptoms of undue erudition
while he was in the Southern. The
letter was full of stuff like latent

8THE Southern league will close
earlier this year than it ever
did before-on September 6,
that is. This suits Atlanta fans
like a calender But it makes a
hit with the recruits who are sold

To the lads who are going up it

You can guess for yourself which
one of the two makes the harder

Every Southern league player
who goes up next fall will be sold
for immediate delivery and will get
a salary for six months, instead of
the five that the Southern league
schedule provides.
THE demand for an early closing
came from those who used
/ cheese pairing logic. This is the
4 way they reasoned:
Only two or three teams have
ever made any money after Sep
TENDER 1. Therefore, the sooner we
close after that date, the more we
l save"
The first part of the contention
Is admitted. The second is a joke.
The clubs don't make any money
after September l because no clubs
make anything after the league
