FSvERY baseban enthusiast knows how a curved ball is thrown If a fast ball is thrown with a whirl it will fly in curved path, the curve be- ing in Ina direction that the nose. or the bali moves in as It whiris. The explanation usually given for this ae- ton Is based on the .tcushioning.s e6- feet Of the air. but this is not convinc- ing as the air is too thin a medium to supply any great cushioning efect mn less 1t is confined or is hit by a pro- jectile travelling at a much greater speed than is possible in ball thrown from the hand. A professor of physics in one of the eastern universities has offered an explanation that seems to be sound both from a scientldc and common sense point of view
 A scientific investigator of the eight eenth century. Danie1 Bernoulli. in ex- perimentin with rapid currents Of air and oth01 gases discovered the prin-s :ctpIe that when the velocity of such currents is high the pressure is low and that when the velocity is low the pressure is high. On this basis the cIrvfng of a thrown ball is easily ex- plained. When the ball is spinning rapidly a thin shell of air surrounding it Is also set to spinning. Owing to- the velocity of this shell Of air the air pressure on the ball is reduced, but 1t WOQ4Q SLlll De the same on all S1QSS IT the ball could be made to stand still while spinning. As 1t flies through the air the effect on the spinning ball is exactly the same as if it were standing still in a swift current of air. With the ball spinning as it goes toward the plate the direction of the current over the top of the ball is the same as that of the shell of spinning air. so that the velocity of the latter Is in- creased. This results in a reduction of pressure on that side of the ball. The opposite effect is produced at the un- der side of the ball. as the current of air is against the spinning shell and dizninishes it's velocity and the pres- sure here is increased. Owing to the greater pressure on the under side the ball is pushed out of a straight line and files in a curve that bends up- ward. If the ball were spinning in the opposite direction the result would be e drop. ball. In short. the curve is always in the direction that the "nosep' of the ball moves in as it spins.

phy. the American coach. was tre- mendotsIy impressed with the form and. speed of AppIegarth and predicted then that he would be heard from soon Appleearth at that time was new and untried Eprinter. but he exceeded all the expectations of his English friends. As a matter of fact although he didn't score iu the 159 meters, Ap- plegarrh proved himself tn be the best sprinter England had.
 English critics think that Apple garth will be able to hold his own with all competitors at Berlin He will cer- tainly do so if he can duplicate his
 21 1-5 seconds in the zoo meters. In
 the 100 yards he has been caught a number of times in g. 4-5 seconds. Therefore all he needs is to be in con
 dition. and his added age and expert ence will make him extremely danger tous. In size and action Applegarth
 very much resembles Lsippfncott. He is not an exceptionaIIy fast starter,
 but he has a tremendous burst o1
 speed which stands him in better stead for the 220 yards than for the 100 yard sprint
 There is every prospect that for the
 games the United States will be rep
 resented at Berlin in 1916 with one or more college crews in the section of sports devoted to rowing. This idea, which has been growing in favor with
 American college men for several years, received tremendous impetus with the sensational victory Of the
 Harvard Junior eight in the recent Royal Henley regatta in England It [ is known that plans have been inform ally considered at more than one uni versity to be represented in the Olymp- ic regatta
 One thing is virtually certain and
 that is that no effort will be made to send abroad an All American crew, as was suggested in 1900 when the Olympic regatta was held over the Henley course on the Thames. Any college crew that goes will go as the representative of It's institution, though with the fndorsernent Of the American Olympic committee.
