four trips to the plate he cracked a
double and single, the two-ply blow
being responsible for the only Buff
falo run. Around first base he han
died everything that was thrown to
him and made the Buffalo infielders
feel secure in turning loose hurried
pegs.
The atmosphere must have remind
ed Hal of the South Side 1t was a
pitchers battle, in which his mates
could not connect in the pinch.
And aside from the work of Earl
Moore and Irwin LANCE there was lit
tie to the game. The Buffed HEAVIER
allowed two hits, but both were
punched with a pass for our pair of
runs. Lange granted but five blows
and managed to keep them spaced
until a pair came in the ninth for
the lone run.
Fournier went on the job in place
of Chase at the South Side and there
was no loss of effectiveness in the
first battle of the new alignment. Jack
had nothing difficult to handle in the
fielding line and punched two hust-
ling singles. He was robbed of triple
through star catch by Henriksen.
Play Fourier regularly, and he
should bat as well as Chase, possibly
few points better.
But the difference WILDE felt in the
defensive department. s.
It is not often that we drag in Old
Man Psychology, but he has place
here Fourier will grab the throws
that come his way, and viii get fair
proportion of the wild ones. But the
other three infielders will suffer in
their work, as we have frequently
said.
They do not repose the same con-
fidence in Fourier that they did in
Chase. In fact, there are few first
basemen who can give their helpers
such feeling of security as Hal.

against the Boston Red Sox.
Apparently the sudden acquisition
was also surprise to the Federal
men, for in none of the morning
papers yesterday~was there notice
that Chase would play. And great
advertisement was overlooked, for
Chase would have. pulled three or
four thousand more people to the
Weeghman park. ..-....,.
The Feds would have been perfect
~ safe in playing up the acquisition
of Prince Hal, as no courts we're open,
and Comiskey would have been I'M
able to prevent the performance of
his former hired man through court
action. ..
Now the South Side owner is to
ask an Injunction against Chase play
ing with any team but the White Sox.
Whether the paper will be served to-
day will not be known until game
time. Some of the Buffalo officials
limited that Hal had been spirited out
of town and would not be used again
here. ......
But Comiskey says this will not
stop him, as he, will resort to the
courts in every city of the Federal
League. .....
There was no intimation of the rea-
SONS which caused Halls sudden leap.
Possibly the Feds have dug up some
legal angle that will protect them,
for, under the Interpretation of big
league contracts handed down by
several judges, they would have only
had four days more to wait before
they could grab Chase in perfect
safety. r.... 49,.
Until the game started yesterday
nine-tenths of the North Side fans
did not know Chase was to play. He
worked for about five minutes in
practice, but no stir was created until
the megaphones announced the pres
ence of the first base bulwark.
Then Hal was given an ovation.

Umpires Sign Up

P1TTSBURG, Jan. 15.-Three OF the
best umpires in baseball have signed to
act as arbiters for the Federal League

Singularly enough these men. each

HOT GOLF BALL
FLIES FARTHER,
PROFESSOR SAYS
So Don't Be Surprised to See
George Adair and Others Pack
ing Thermos Bottles.
By O. B. Keller.

IF you should happen to see
George Adair, or Will Rowan. or
- Tick Tichenor, or Hamilton Block
any Of those golfing sharks, you
know-we say If you should happen
to see one of them sort of shopping
quietly out to East Lake with n
thermos bottle under his arm, and
slipping it to the caddy while he takes
mis- preliminary warmins-up swing,
don't let any suspicious of an unwor-
thy nature get the better OF you.
It's strictly in the interest of sci
ence-science and golf, we assure you.
And golf is a science that can DE
carried on successfully only with the
most level of heads, and frequently
not even then.
THIS is the reason for the thermos
bottle, If at all.
Professor Lyle Spencer, of Law
renee College-wherever THAT is
announces that he has discovered that
warming golf balls before use in
creases their resiliency q. e., bounce)
in an enormous degree. To prove
that his theory is not merely an
academic bunch, the professor, who
knows with which side of the club
10 hit the ball, warmed some speci-
mems of golf balls, carried them in a
thermos bottle to the field of battle,
and with no particular effort belted
them almost out of sight. The fair
way being frozen at the time, the in
creased bouncing facilities also got in
their work. and the PROFESSIONAL wal
Iops were limited only by bunkers or
natural obstacles that cause the pro-
iectiles to change their course.
THE warming pan theory has
been applied TO other missiles
with effect over at the Atlanta Ath-
'etic club. in cold weather, the hand
ball contingent speeds up tennis balls
by heating them at the radiators. The
effect, of course, is to expand the air
withn the shell of the ball, making it
hrmer and at the same time more
elastic cushion.
the matter OF golf balls, we don't
quite get the prof.
The modern lively ball" Is made
very much like a miniature baseball,
consisting of rubber shreds wrapped
tightly around core (of various
types) and the whole thing tightly
covered with a shell Of pure gutta
percha, about 1-12 of an inch in thick
ness
me core In some cases Is OF SOAP !.
water Is used for the core of some
balls rubber for other; and the dan
gerous acid has nearly become obso-
lete. II is assumed that the resiliency
of the ball is increased by heating. as
there naturally would be some shrink
ege in GOLD weather, from the con-
traction of all the materials. The
artificial heat probably matches in the
rubber an iSsane desire to stretch,
and the impact Of the blow Is met by
a corresponding bound.
"E regret that the esteemed and
w probably renowned prof. didn't
supply his press agent with figures
concerning his drives.
In that event, we can easily imag

Leading OutfieIder of Southern
League.

1913 season of the Southern
League Mr. Randolph Rose, of
Chattanooga, offered three medals,
one each to the player who led the
league In batting, stolen bases and
pitching the medal presented being
so engraved as to show in what de
partment the player excelled.
During the progress Of the season
the question of favoring players In
the box scores by the official scorers
came up and also that OF managers
using their star pitchers against GER
tain teams. I know the Atlanta OIL
cial scorers q believe there were two
OF them during the season. we're &C
cused of favoring me in the base hit
column while we we're playing a
home and some fans probably re
member the howl that came out of
Chattanooga at the latter part OF the
season relative to the Birmingham
club not pitching Prough against At
lanta and Mobile. It's a fact that
Prough did not pitch against us In
the last series at Atlanta, but It was
claimed that he was at the bedside OF
a very sick sister, and We have no
rea son to doubt the statement what
| ever: in fact I think at that stage of
| the game when he and Coveleskie
were running neck and neck for the
| pitching honors, with only a few more
| days to go, that had he been able to
DO so he Is the kind of fellow that
would prefer to take a chance on an
other win rather than that of having
remained idle.
TN my case the accusation was so
absurd that II was imm ediately
passed up by the Atlanta scribes and
no notice taken OF It at all, nor was
| there any pretense made to answer 1t.
THERE is no doubt that these
prizes acted as a stimulant to
/ some Of the players in the line of play
for which they were offered but | am
afraid other parts Of the game were
neglected in a good many cases.
| There was also considerable dissen-
| sion caused by the jealousy which
was aroused among the players. Per-
| haps Ii was not noticeable to those on
the outside. but could and did see II
day after day. Therefore. I think the
offering of prizes for any one special
feat which Is thrown open for com
petition to all the players of league,
or even of one club, is 4 detriment Ia

Curious Ear Of the Catfish.

The catfish uses his lungs as an or

comes Il closed sac filled with air and
commonly known as the swim bladder.
In the catfish, as in the suckers. clubs
and most brook fish. the air bladder is
large and is connected by slender
tube. the remains Of the trachead, to

closely to the vertebval column. The
anterior vertebae are much enlarged,
twisted together. and through them
passes Il chain of bones. which con-
meets with the hidden cavity Of the
air. The bladder therefore assists the

can carry little range of variety in
