Electric Crane
Carries Movie
Camera In Air

A moving picture camera OPP
Grating on an aerial platform,
carried by huge electric crane,
is one of the originalities re-
sponsible for the unique appear
ance of one of d. w. Griffiths'
greatest scenes in Intolerance,
at the Tacoma theater.
The scene is that of a great hall
in Balshazzar's temple in Baby
lon. The hail extends for a half
mile, and is marked by beautifully
pillared walls, adorned by i'm
mems articles of statuary. In this
hall more than 1000 dancing girls
take part in the revelry after the
first defeat of King Cyrus.
The camera travels down the
hall suspended 80 feet above the
dancers, giving at once a unique
and striking view of the immense
scene. Griffiths was the first
producer to make use of an aerial
camera.

THIRD BASEMAN WHO is
STAR PITCHER, SIGNED
FOR 1917 TIGER TEAM

Russ got Ansell on a contract
last season, but because he man
aged later to sign Johnny Wuffli
for the third sack. decided not to
send for the Idaho boy. Spokane
signed Ensell last year but did not
use him. In the meantime the
player blossomed out into a semi
pro star with an enviable record.
Hall learned several months ago
that the Twin Falls player was at
liberty again, and dickered with
him to join the Tiger team. Today
Ansell sent a signed contract to
the Tacoma teams boss.
Russ has learned from Roy Cor
bin, a retired ball player of 10
years experience, that Ansell is
exceptionally fast, and that as a
pitcher he ranks far better than
Alexander, who made a good
showing with the Tigers during
the last month of the '16 season.

Another speed artist was signed
by Owner Russ Hall of the Ia
coma Tigers today.
His name is Eldred Ansell, and
he pastimes about Twin Falls,
Idaho, when he isn't away from
home playing baseball.
Ansell is reported to Hall as
being a clever third baseman,
possessed of such a good wing
that he can step into the pitcher
box and slip the old apple down
the groove like the best of them.
When Ira Thomas and Frank
Bancroft brought the rival ALL
American and All-National teams
west a couple of seasons ago. one
of the teams played against
semi-pro club at Twin Falls. An
sell pitched for the scrub team,
and he did such effective work
that both of the major league
magnates told Russ Hall about
him.

COmStOCk to
Box Bunker

An amusing contest on the pro-
gram for Paul Steele's next smok-
er, Monday, Jan. 20, will be the
battle between Val Comstock of
Tacoma and Battling Bunker of
Seattle. The men are light
heavies.
Bunker is a wild and woolly
slusger, with only two blows in
his repertoire, and obth of them
are full-arm swings. He takes
himself seriously, but provides
plenty Of fun for the spectators.
Comstock has not boxed much
since he won the amateur cham
pionship of the Tacoma armory
IS months ago by defeating Cron-
ander. He Is a rugged boxer, and
should be able to get under Bunk
er's swings.
The fans are expecting real
encounter when these two get to-
gether.

will probably announce this

by the way he tightens up on
the bat.
Most ball players will be shy of
this statement. Rudolph has never
been credited with saying he could
tell that a batter was going to
swing or pass up the ball and the
smartest pitchers have never
made such claims.
The fact it, that the batter is up
there set to hit anything he likes
and just because he may have de-
cided to pass one up is no reason
why he would not swing If the ball
is grooved for him.
Rudolph, like others, studies
batters, and knows what they can
hit and what fools them. Not hav-
ing great strength Of excessive
speed Rudolph MUST know his
batters to be successful.
In this Rudolph Is only follow
ing practice started probably by
Addie Joss, who made himself the
leading pitcher in the American
league for years by studying bat
tiers and knowing what to pitch
them without exerting himself to
the limit.
Pitchers with great strength and
terrific speed are not forced to
resort to this metod, although the
strongest of them find themselves
more effective by systematic
study of opponents.
Matthewson won success by
studying batters. He was one of
the greatest opponents of this
style of pitching.

When Fred Mitchell, new Cub
manager, begins building up ball
team out of Charley Weeghrlan's
disorganiZed batch of players this
spring, his first efforts, he says,
will be directed to teaching pitch
ers to pitch intelligent ball.
There are three essentials pitch
ers must learn, Mitchell declares.
They are control, to hold runners
on bases, and to pitch without put
ting everything on the ball.
Mitchell says the wise
pitcher knows when the bat
ter is going to hit and that
Dick Rudolph can call the
turn on the hitter every time
