His name is kircher and if he had

which was not very many for the
Georgia Peach. Only three players
in the country stood head of kircher
and two of Johnston, with ia,

a schedule of 200 games in which to
pursue their burglarious pursuits

in consequence, no good tennis player

trants, but IL a sectional qualilica-

Kircher Stole II Bases in 1913

winter Speed is the craze of the
grand old game these days, and. next
to right hand wallopePs, that lad is in
most demand who can slip crafty
from base to base under the heaviest
guns of the enemy.
THAT passion for right-hand hit
ters, by the way, is rather diff
cult to explain.
Time was-and not so long ago
when four fork hand reapers We're
considered about the correct number
to mix in the batting attack, to the
bafflement of perspiring northpaWS
That fad accounted in a great meas
ure for the prestige of the left hand
slabman, retained and groomed to
sneak in and slip the everlasting
kibosh to clubs carrying an oVerplus
Of left hand hitters. Jack Ptiester
earned his sobriquet Of Giant Killer
by the devastation he wrought in the
ranks Of McGraw's clan in the days
when a majority of the regulars bat
ted left handed.
TOR our-part. we do not understand
L the growing prejudice against
left-hand htters. Certainly a good
Ieft-hand hitter usually shows up
pretty well against dealing from
either side-witness Cobb, WciChonce,
Robertson and others.
And we always were rather soft on
that step nearer first base, So many
runners get nipped in that last step,

contends, until it has national language If we
politically and Intellectually free and indepen-
dent must write and talk American-not English.
Our satircal cousins in England will at once
retort that the fact Of linguistic independence is
already ours, even If the name is not 1t would
grieve the Saturday Review" to its inmost i'm
The marvellous American slang may be imperfect
ly observed in England-especialy when it is
question of novelist's putting American slang in
an American mouth. But its existence and COM
pletely alien character are conceded American is
a real language In England, whether we like II or
not
And why not plead guilty? As matter of fact,
is not the gentleman from Philadelphia right at
bottom? We cannot become excited over the mere
question of name. But lively up-and coming ma.
ton that does not do what 1t feels like with its
speech, oral and written is hard to believe in If
we still make ourselves understood without grave
difficulty when conversing with Engshmen IL is
largely because Of the inertia Of written language

whether even our books and actors will be read
