BASEBALL BAT SAME
AS SIXTY YEARS AGO
rev Changes Have Been Made
in Stick Used by SIuggers.
Originally Decreed That It Should Re
Made of Wood Not More Than
Two and one-Half Inches in
Diameter and Round

Baseball was referred to as bat bali
IN some communities in the early DAVIS
of the national game. The modern
baseball bat had its origin lust 50
years ago.
March ., 1859, at meeting of the
fathers Of baseball held in New York.
1t was decreed that the BAT should be
made of wood and have a diameter
not to exceed 21a inches and a length
not greater than A. inches In the
years that have followed fewer
changes have been made in the bat
IMAM in any other thing connected
with the game. The provision as to
length still stands, but since 1895 the
swatter has been permitted to use n
slightly thicker bat, The early rule
that the bat be made of wood wasn't
binding enough in the early DAYS of
professionalism, for some of the play

had been made and filled with lead.
The rule of 1859 prescribed that the
hat should be round, and this pro-
vision is in effect today, although In
the Intervening years there have been
some NariationS. In the early eighties

was Endorsed by the governing body
OF amateur players, but it didn't last
long and was never used by profess
sionals. Later IN the same decade
bats made of soft wood and flat on
one side We're Introduced, to be used in
bunting. This variety of bat gained
the recognition of the National league.
and was used in nearly all profess
Sional circuits up to 1898, when 1t was
discarded and outlawed.
Prior to the adoption of the rule of
1893 any old kind of stick was per
