Feature OF February Adventure
"Scruples." story OF the Montana
mcothins by William Dudley Pelley,
a member OF the staff OF the Evening
Banner, is one OF the features Of the
February number of the Adventure
magazine The leading character CT
the narrative is ''Hooty Malone q
big framed, big herated product of
the wild and woody country, whose
exploits, trials and tribulations will
be described in other stories which
the author has been engaged to con
tribute to future issues Of the maya
zine
While "Hooty' is the leading per-
former in the events described in
Scruples' the story is based upon
the misfortune OF a conscientious
young westerner who is in danger of
losing his best girl and promised
bride through the Vaccinations OF a
slick individual from the effete east
whose Broadway clothes and cabaret
manners have temporarily dazzled
the western maid.
''Hooty" comes to the rescue. There
is funny mock marriage scene dur
ing which the crooked character of
the dazzler is unearthed by "Hooty"
who attempts to ofiiciate as the par
son, the maiden returns to her first
love and even the conspirator, i'm
pressed by the magnaminity OF
"Hooty," determines to lead and hon
est life.
The story is characterized through.
out by humorous. breezy dialogue and
excellent description. "Hooty Nal
one" is a character in whom are EN-
bodied the really good attributes de
veloped in the land of magnificent
distances, the tale is clean and whole
some and the moral is plain and true.

YOUNG GIRL HURT
Received Severe Cut on Forehead In
Runaway Accident.

''S'N'''J 'NSS'SS'e'
Miss Elma Deforge, about Is years
old and daughter CT Mr.. and Mrs.
John Deforge who live on the east
road to Pownal, was the victim of a
severe but not serious accident Wed.
nesday afternoon. While coming
from the mountain with a load of
wood the horse became unmanageable
and the young girl was thrown
violently against sharp board ON the
sled She struck on her head in such
a manner that a deep cash was cut
nearly across the full width of her
forehead.
The girl had been to the mountain
with her brother for a small load of
wood and the accident happened on
the return trip. They had no runner
chains and the sled crowded against
the horse so that the animal was un-
able to hold the load. The horse be-
gan to run and the girl was thrown.
Early in the evening the girl and
her brother drove into the village and
physician found that the scalp and
flesh had been cut clear through to
the bone. The girl refused to permit
the surgeon to take any stitches in
the wound but the injury was dressed
as we'll as possible with plaster and
| the pair started on their return trip.
They stopped at house in the village
and the horse bolted for home so that
it was necessary for them to make
the remainder of the distance, all Of
| two miles, on foot.

Heydler Tells How to Score Pitchers
;H:- dix -:II;- -:lI:- -;.;-
Few Fans Understand How 1t Is Done

TEW YORK. April 3.-The pitcher
NJ always has been the dominant
J. Y factor in a baseball game. More
rules govern his work and prescribe
how IL shall be performed than ham
dicap OF enhance the efforts Of the
other eight players.
The baseball public. even that part
Of it which is usually Well-informeu
in the rules. never has thoroughly IN
dcrstood the rules for determining runs
earned off pitchers and the b6sic rules
and principles governing the detormin-
ing Of games won and lost where two
or more pitchers participate Tor the
same team in the same game. These
rules are the result of years Of eNpcr-
fence. and are considered as near per-
feet as expert baseball knowledge can
devise.
National league, viii send this week
TO each official scorer OF the league
q COPY Of the rules, to determine the
perpleNiug questions arising under
these two heads. these rules are for
worded annually TO the official scorers.
yet there are frequent discrepancies in
che Interpretation OF the rules. The
rules follow:
Basic Rules for Games Won and Lost.
While IL is not possible 10 make hard
and fast rules for determining which
ming. or charged with the loss OF a
game. yet there are certain fundament-
al rules in arriving at a decision which
have stood the test Of criticism, and
which are as follows:
!. When one pitcher Is relieved by
another. with runners on bases. charge
up all such runners. in case they score.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1916-04-03

to the first pitcher The relieving
pitcher. coming into the game cold"
and possibly in the midst Of a batting
rally, cannot be held responsible for
runners he may find on the bases: nor
should he be charged up with the first
batsman he faces reaching first if such
batsman had any advantage because OF
the wild pitching OF the first pitcher.
Tie Game. New Game.
>. Where the relieving pitcher goes
i'm with the score tie on even innings.
he must win or lose the game, regard
less Of the number of innings, or how
effectively the first pitcher may have
pitched. If the first pitcher is relieved
with the score In his favor, and later
the score IS tied up off second pitcher.
then the latter wins or loses. a tie
game at any stage with no one on
bases must be considered to all intents
and PurpOses as the start OF a new
game for the second pitcher.
g. Where the first pitcher is retired
after pitching, say seven innings, he
is entitled TO the benefit of all runs
scored by his side in an equal number
Of innings. For instance, Brown, Of
the home club. has pitched seven in
nings, with the score 2 to 0 against
him. He is taken out when his turn
at bat comes in the seventh. Before
close OF that inning his team has scored
two runs. Brown retires with the game
a tie. and the next pitcher becomes re-
sponsible.
Must Pitch Half Game.
T. DO not give the first pitcher cred
Il for a game won, even II score is in
his favor, unless he has pitched at
least the first half Of the game. A
pitcher retired at close Of fourth In

ThW YORK, April 5.-The Texas
M Tommy punch" was conceived
4 y two years ago when Johnny
OLeary, lightweight champion OF
Canada, watched some Texas Tommy"
dancers in San Francisco. IL came into
being a short time later in st. Paul
when O'Leary tried il out on Mike Glib
bons-and nearly floored the "St. Paul
Ghost"
The Canadian battler has used the
punch for the past two years-but not
until he executed the trick three times
In row In Philadelphia recently, has
il come to the fun attention OF pugilis-
tic fans.
A. ". Maxwell. sporting editor OF the
Philadelphia Evening Ledger tells us
St is the cleverest ring trick he has
seen pulled in many years.
How New Punch in Used

ponent," SAID Maxwell, he does not wait
10 be parted by the referee. Instead
NE grasps the back part OF the arm
nearest 10 him, at point above the
elbow and, while stepping back, turns
the victim half way around.
"O'Leary puts bit OF violence INTO
the twist. As a result. the other fell
low is thrown off balance. While he is
trying to regain it, OLeary grabs the
nearest arm again and whirls the fel
low around completely. That brings

cover himself. OLeary flashes out a
wallop for the jaw
