Baseball has been translated into
French in order to remove one of the
obstacles to further popularity of the
game among French speaking people,
The faculty of Assumption College at
Worcester, Mass. has drawn up a
manual of play in that language. It
presents baseball in terms scarcely
recognizable to most of the followers
OF the nations pastime.
The pitcher is a "lanceur," the
catcher a receiver" At shortstop, a
player under the Assumptionist fac
ulty's designation, would be 'bloq-
uer." Other places in the lineup are
indicated in the manual in this man
ner: First base, premier but; sec
end base, "secondienne but; third
base, "troihenne but; right field
"yoltiguer droite"; center field, vol
tigeur au centre; left field, vol
tigeur a gauche." The coach is term
Su dSdSS0ur.
In announcing the result of it's
work, the faculty of Assumption Col
lege stated that while the game was al
ready popular among the students of
the French speaking colleges in this
country and Canada, it fell short of
the interest and support of faculties
OF those institutions to which it was
entitled, largely because of difficulties
OF the teachers in becoming familiar
with the terms of the game. 1t was
to bring the language of baseball with
in reach of strange ears that the man
tai was devised, the announcement
said.
Those who drew up the manual
were assisted by member of the fac
ulty who had seen baseball played be-
hind the battle lines in France, and so
made observations of the phrases
used by French soldiers to describe
players and position in the game.
