"sILK" NEVER MADE MISTAKE
American League Umpire Figures He
Has Made 433, 600 Decisions in
Twenty-one Years.

"Silk" OLoughlin, the American
league umpire, grew reminiscent while
in Detroit recently. For the benefit Of
newspaper friends, the noted arbiter,
who has been umpiring for Fl years,
figured that he had made 433, $50 deci-
sions in that time, and, he says:
He never made mistake.
OLoughlin often has declared that
his error column is still unstained, but
he has not been anxious to discuss the
subject. This, however, is what he
said:
81 never made a mistake. And If
did, I would be an idiot to tell Of it.
There are lots of times when the ideas
of the fans, as well as the athletes,
differ from mine. But I know I am
right because what say sticks"
O'Loughlin figures that In the Is
years he has worked under the old
single-umpire system, he made $4,000
decisions and that since then lac has
decided 121,6S0 plays. He bases his
calculations on the normal number Of
decisions usually made in a game.

WHY SOLDIERS MUST BE FLEx-
lBLE IN MOVEMENT.

Any body of troops must be flexible
sary at any instant to change its pur-
pose or direction. While such a body,
without well-defined rules, would be
most cumbersome and unwieldy-if
not impossible-to handle, it must, in
fact, respond to commands more quick
ly and precisely than a boat to it's
rudder, or an automobile to it's wheel.
A column of troops must not only
learn to turn at an exact right angle,
but, with equal celebrity, it must be
able to shift its movement in any spe-
cited direction, even to the exact re-
verse, without losing as much as a
step.
By the commands, column right" or
'left," fright Qeft) turn" 'by the
right Qeft) flank" fright Qeft)
oblique," 'fncline to the right Ceft),
and ito the rear" unit may at once
be able to switch direction toward
any desired objective.
When a company is in column Of
squads, that is, four men abreast, to
change direction the command "col-
umn right (left) march" is given, and
at the word march," the head Of the
column turns sharply, at a right angle
in the specified direction. This is done
on what is called a moving pivot,
which will later be explained in the
school Of the squad. "Right Qeft)
turn" is executed when a company is
in line, that is, fifty-six men abreast,
and the line also turns on a moving
pivot to right or left, as the case may
be. Fright turn" is executed by a
squad as well as a company.
! "By the right Cleft) flank" is exc
cuted, as with all movements, at the

given as the right foot strikes the
ground. The soldier promptly turns

and Immediately steps off in that d.

another veteran. Dode is now playing
his seventh season as member Of the
Pills, and he bids fair to be seen in a
Philly uniform for several more sea-
sons if his playing this year can be
taken as an indication Of just how
''fast" he is going back.
Paskert, unlike most ball players
past thirty-five-he will be thirty-six
in August-has not lost the youthful
springiness and vigor Of his legs. He
is still as fast and sure on his under

ers who come up, and although he is
not the hitter that Cravath is, he can
still sting the apple for seasons
average around .275. He hit .279 last
season, and so far this year he has
been hitting between $50 and .27O,
with his hitting being done in streaks.
Like all of the veterans, Paskert may
be expected to brush up his batting
with hot weather here to stay.
Where can you find two grand old
vets-and both outfielders-who have
anything on Cravath and Paskert? 1t

When a ball player commences to
bat over thirty In Old Father Times
league, it is the general belief that he
has seen his best days.
The rolling years take the youth
full snap and ginger out of the arms
and legs of the average player past
thirty years of age, and he turns into
the path which leads him back to the
minors or to retirement.
But there are exceptions to every
rule and in the major leagues today
there Is a sprinkling of players well
past the thirty-year mark who are
still blocking Old Dad Times lusty
wallops and getting away with it, while
ambitious youngsters grow weary
camping on their trails, waiting for the
chance to step in and take their places.
Hinchman, Ames, Vaughn, Toney,
Chief Meyers and Buck Herzog are
among the past-thirty players In the
National league, who are still in there
winning their cakes on the diamond,
while Terry Turner, Eddie Plank, Stan

league veterans who refuse to be

BREAD AS ECONOMICAL FOOD
Would Be Used More Extensively II
Home Baked Variety Was Always
Good, Say Government Experts.

IF home-baked bread were uniformly
well made, it would be used more ex-
tensively than at present in place Of
more expensive foods, say specialists
in the United States department OF
agriculture, and this would be a dis
tinct economy. From the standpoint
Of nutrition it makes very little differ
ence whether breadstuffs are served in
the form of bread or in the form of
breakfast cereals, side dishes with
meat, or desserts.
A man engaged in moderate muscu-
lar work can profitably consume about
three-fourths of pound a day OF
breadstuffs in any one Of these forms.
This quantity is the equivalent of one
pound of baked bread. AS a matter
Of fact, however, it is not probable
that in the average family this guam
tity is consumed and the deficiency Is
made up by the use of more expensive
substances. OF course bread alone Is
not sufficient for the maintenance Of
health, but from both an economical
and hygienic point of view should be
used more extensively than it usually
is, declare the experts.

MONEY MAKERS HURT SPORTS
Trouble Arises Between Owner and
Player When Discussion Of Re-
eeipts Is Taken Up.

Grantland Rice says that the influ-
ence of money upon sport is bound to
be bad. There is no way out. AS long
as gate receipts continue to grow there
Is certainty of Ill feeling at hand
between those who pay and those who
play. 1t has been suggested that in
baseball a good many years ago there
and player. This Is true. But there
was also q run Of smaller gate re-
ceipts. When admissions run up to
5000 and 10000 day and the pot in
creases, trouble is sure to keep pill
ing up. The player wants to make all
he can get. The owner wants to get
all he can make, both sides having the
true human touch. There is nothing
at all out Of the ordinary in all this,
since the same conditions exist in
every branch Of existence. It only
seems worse in game, for everyone
likes to think that sport is divorced
from financial consideration, whereas
in this country sport and the love of
watching sport have been capitalized
to the limit. The-only way out would
be to abolish all gate receipts. And
this is no way out, for then there
would be no daily baseball. So base
ball will have to fight its way out, just
as various other trades have to scram-
BILE along. with few breathing spells
between trouble. Big money has come
to the game, and big money means big
trouble when discussion Of the proper
split arises. 1t may seem to be
shame that great game should be
married by loud and raucous debate
over the division Of the spoils, but
there are a number Of things in this
world that seem to be shame that
can't be averted.
