Baseball

Baseball
In spite of the fact that a good
loyal bunch of ball fans were present
at the ball park last Sunday afternoon
to help the local team win from
Clifton, the Morenci team lost to
Clifton with a score of 10 to Z. 1t
was absolutely a back lot game
'ttonted" players of both teams show
ed the spectators how objectionable
errors can be made.
Stevens, the Morenci pitcher, was
in bad form and in the opening inning
for the visitors, they gathered in
three runs with the same number of
hits. Then followed a succession of
innings in which most every kind of
play figured, overthrows, errors, a
pitchers balk, out by batted ball,
home-run, stream of batters hit
with pitched balls, bases on balls, so
that the spectators were ready to eX-
Pect most anything.
Weeks, pitching for Clifton, was in
good form, allowing only eight hits.
The poor support given him is &C
countable for many of the runs placed
to Morenci'S credit Although play
ing an uphill game and with two out
in the Morenci half of the first in
ming, Porri acting captain for the
team, knocked one of the prettiest
home runs ever seen on the local
diamond. His batting was a feature
during the game, for he annexed a
clean three-base hit in the seventh
inning which helped to add to Mo-
renci's score. At the beginning of
the seventh inning, Stevens was taken
out of the box and was replaced by
Pedro Cuaron, who allowed five hits
in three innings and one run was
made on him.
Clifton's batting was sure a fea-
ture, for they slammed the ball re-
peatedly for two and three bases, but
their infieId work was probably worse
than the Morenci team.

Such IS the view OF Fritz Werner.
military aviator. who in civil life is

Sees All Of Great Battles.
After a month of service !n France
and Belgium as corporal of the Sew
enth German Aviation corps he re-
turned TO Berlin to get a new aero
plane in place OF one he had worn out
in scout duty. He recounted a battle
he had in the air with French and
English aeroplanes above Paris but
that experience has been told by ca
bic. His talk is valuable chiefly for
the light it throws on the manner OF
conducting a modern battle between
armies on the ground.
Complaint is made that the modern
soldier and the modern commander no
longer see battles, the one having
giimpses only OF an insignificant pOr
ton OF the battlefield while the other
reads kilograms and watches n map

eminence.

The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-05-03

Der OF professional and particularly OF
sportsman aviators in the United States
is at the present time diminishing, and
the War Department Is doubtful
whether in the case of a military emer-
gency 1t could secure the services of as
many as twenty civilians sufficiently eN-
pert in the flying art to be worth en-
ploying. Hence the Importance of
training a reasonably large number of
young officers of the regular army and
militia.
1t is proposed to establish at the aero
nautic centre n fully equipped aviation
squadron which Will be ready at any
moment to take the field. The squadron
will consist of eight flying machines,
with the requisite accessories. the per-
sonnet comprising two officers and five
enlisted men for each aeroplane. Two
aeroplanes, with four officers and ten
men. will form platoon. Two platoons
will make one company, and two COM
Imnies will compose one squadron, the
tactical unit designed for assignment to
a military division.
As the officers are trained and addi-

business OF the second man to try to dis
able the latter by shooting the pilot.
1t is worth mentioning incidentally
that the War Department has recently
made experiments with so-called smoke
signals from flying machines. What
was used was not really smoke but
puifs of finely powdered lampbiack
emitted by air pressure from a small
tank carried on the aeroplane. The
puffs. produced by touching a button,
formed little black clouds in the wake
of the machine as 1t sped along, short
clouds for dots and long clouds for
dashes of the Morse code. 1t is easy
to see how messages might be con-
veyed by this means, but the trouble
was that the churning of the air by the
propellers had a tendency to break up
the clouds. rendering the dots and
dashes obscure.
Flying as n sport has by no means
achieved such widespread popularity in
this country as in France. where an
astonishing multiplicity of types of air
craft have been developed for purposes
of mere amusement. Indeed the mum
