WOULD SKATER BALL TEAMS
Estimated That ITO Major League
Players Are Subject to Service
Under Selectlve Draft.

Something like 40 major league
baseball players IRE subject to army
service under the selective draft, this
being the estimate of an official. The
players liable to service are about
equally divided between the two
leagues. It Is the custom of baseball
players to keep their age down to
about thirty, even when they are
known to be considerably older, but
even Mt that there are a good many
youngsters playing on the big teams
who are between twenty.one and
thirty.
There seems to be a bare chance
that the ball teams will not be dis
rupted this season. OF the players who
could be taken, probably 80 or 60
would be exempt for one reason or
another. The remaining total would be
insignificant compared with the size

safety valve for the outlet Of sup

opinion will carry any weight with
army officials Is quite another matter
Magnates are hoping for the best, but

caught, either before 1t touched the
ground or on the first bound the bats
man was out. However, no strike was
called on the first ball pitched, unless
the striker struck ut and missed 1t.
The rule adopted In November. 1870,
which gave the striker the privilege
of calling for high one or low one,
was put into effect the following sea-
son, which was the first year of the
National association, the forerunner
OF the National league. A high ball
was defined rs between shoulder and
waist, and low one was between
waist and knee. II the batter got what
was ordered from the pitcher, and
didn't strike ut 1t, strike was called
on him anyway. II the striker didn't
express preference, n strike was
called on him II the ball was "fnir."
which meant between the shoulder and
the knee.
After 1876 the batter had to call
for either high, low or fair ball. This
practice, which now seems so absurd,
was not abolished until 1887. Imagine
Ty Cobb being privileged to call for
the sort of ball he wanted!

TRIED TO RUN LEFT.HANDED
President Tener Tells Of Batter Who
Had Switched Positions at Plate
Dashin0 for Third.

John X. Tener, president of the Ma
tiOnal league, vOuches for this story:
slew DickersOn, Outfielder for the Pr
rates In the long ago, had always bat
ted left-handed, and left-handed pitch
ers in those times We're scarce. Bat
tiers seldom faced them, and some bat
tiers, including DickersOn, had but a
hazy idea of what they looked like.
One day he faced one, however, and
was bewildered. His mate suggested
that he turn around and bat right
handed. He did so, grounded toward
the left instead OF the right, as he gen.
orally did when batting left-handed,
and so fixed was the habit of turning
from the side of the plate on which he
stood that he dashed down the line to-
Aaf,i third base"

CAST.0FFs ARE MAKING GOOD
Lefty Russell and Bruno Haas, Dis
carded by Athletics, Playing Well
for Newark.

Two CASTOR Athletic pitchers are
making good as regular players for the
Newark International league club.
They are Lefty Russell, who Is COW
ering first base, and Bruno Haas, who
Is playing In the Outfield. Both men
have won the fans with their mighty
hitting.
Haas and Russell weren't with the
Athletics very long, but they are dis
tinctly remembered by Philadelphians.
Russell came there In 1910 from Balti-
more for money and players amount
ing to $4,000.
He never made good because of Ill
ness contracted during the previous
winter and went to the minors, where
he has since played good bali.
Bruno Haas Joined the Athletics In
1915, and on June % of that season
made worlds record by issuing 10
bases on balls to New York batsmen.
Both Russell and Haas saw they
would never make pitchers, so adapted
themselves to other positions, where
they are having better fortune.

Chicago Nationals pitched hitless ball
for nine innings against Cincinnati,
and Toney on May 2, when the latter
made his record. and 1t was not until
the tenth period that Kopf broke the
big Cub twirler's string with single.
The major league annals for the
past II years show that the greatest
number Of no-hit games pitched in any
one season was In 1908 when there
were four In the American and two in
the National league. In 1900, 1905 and
1916 four such fcats We're recorded.
With virtually four months Of sched-
ule play ahead It would appear as
though the 1917 corps of twirlers had
an unusual opportunity to establish
new figures In this direction since
three more no-hit games will surpass
the total made In 1908.

beat the Giants as regularly as he
worked against them. This ycar he
seems to be even better and Is start
ing like doing 1t us he once did In the
American league.
Here is little example Of what
COombs could do while with the Ath-
letics. Connie Mack started him one
day against the Boston Red Sox, a.
ways a hard team to beat. The game
rolled along just "a innings before the
Athletics broke a to tie and won
the game 4 and 1. COOmbs allowed 10
hits, all well scattered, and sent IS
Reds back to the bench after each
had taken three swings.
