CIRCUIT HITS DIDN'T COUNT
Three Major League Batters Victims
of circumstances Last Season
Babe Ruth ls One.

Three players In the big leagues
had the distinction Of driving the ball
into the bleachers last season with
out getting credit usually given for a
home run.
The trio were Babe Ruth. the slug
ger of the Red Sox; j. Franklin
Baker. the "home-run king" OF the
Yankees, and Emil Meusel. the young
outfielder of the Philadelphia Ma
tionals.
On July 8 Ruth propelled one of
Stanley Covaleskie's spltters into the
right field bleachers. 1t was in the
ninth inning. with the score tied and
Amos Strunk on first base. When
Strunk crossed the plate. the game
ended and Ruth got credit for only a
three-bagger.
In an extra Inning game at the Polo
grounds, Baker drove the ball into
the right-field bleachers. Unfortunate
ly the bases were crowded at the mo-
ment, and as a result the third base
man got credit for only single.
With man on second In ten
iLning game at Philadelphia between
the Phillies and the Braves, Meusel
hit the ball into the bleachers. but
got credit for only two-bagger.

UNABLE TO LEARN BASEBALL
Game Proves Too Complicated for
French to Master-can't Remem-
Der Where Bases Are.

The French have not been able TO
learn baseball. Attempts of Amerl,
can doughboys and "Y" men to teach
them the game have failed. II is now
admitted. Baseball, under present
conditions. has proved too complicated
for the poilus. who can master the
hardest OF the irregular verbs and
found out the combination of the "Big
Bertha. long ago. but cannot remem-
Der which way Is first base.
Intensive training was rendered
doubly difficult not only by the Ger
man habit Of picking out the smooth
fields for afternoon bombardment, but
also by the purely French habit OF
courtesy. The poilu will save his Of
ficer's life, but he cannot enjoy strik-
ing him out.
The story is told of one player who
slammed the pill straight into the
pitchers chest and made a long de
tour on his way to first to apologize
to monsieur. The sound of an Amer
lean private bawling out his captain
for an error at third is said to have
kept the whole sector from Toul to
Montdldier In conversation last spring.

fore, TO learn that the riders In To-
ture will be under the direct control
OF several trustworthy officials ap-
pointed by the stewards of the Jockey
club and that outside agents or mana
gers will be pronounced nonessential.
According to well-informed turfmen
who desire clean racing several jock
eys the last season had as many as
three or four agents. These agents, Il
is charged. frequently came in contact
with persons who had little regard. for
the welfare of racing. Naturally the
riders paid more attention to their per-
sonal representatives, than to the own
ers or trainers who engaged their
services. Consequently owners or train
ers frequently saw their horses sus-
tain defeat as result Of poor riding.

made by recognized officials In the
employ OF the racing association you'll

might be wise move to keep the

II also has been suggested that q
