 Next to keeping his eye on the ball a batter must learn to hit with free and easy swing He must not hold his elbows tight against his sides. It IS impossible to get free swing if the elbows are bound By this l do not mean they should be held out from the body, but they must be given all the freedom of action that is possible.
 Hitting power is generated m the wrists forearms and the muscles be- hind the shoulder blades. Therefore it is necessary to drive ball hard to get your shoulders in the swing. It IS not necessary to swing so hard that YOU spin all the way around. The man who swings in this way loses time ia getting away from the plate. Getting started quickly toward first base IS something that demands close atten- tion. Many base hit has been lost bv A slow start from the plate and many base hit has been made by

When pitcher is preparing to de- liver ball try to guess what he in tends to throw, a curve or fast one, continued Ruth, but just because you have made up your mind he is go- ing to throw a curve do not be too sure of it. Always remember the pitcher also is trying to outguess the batter. That is part of a pitchers work. Once he releases the ball new CT take your eye off it. If you do you are gone. Watch it all the way. Watch it as it breaks and watch 1t as you start your swing. The batter who watches the ball only part of the way in it's flight to the plate seldom becomes a good hitter for if the pitch CT is throwing curve it seldom breaks until it is within few feet of the plate It is almost impossible to tell whether thrown ball IS gong to curve or not until the actual break oc- curs For this reason it is necessary for A batter never to take his eye oil the ball.

BABE RUTH WILL
 SURE BE HERE
ls Coming Next Sunday If the Weather Man Doesn't Score
 Another Strike Out
Home Run King Tells How He Does
 If

Well, Babe Ruth, the Home Run King, was struck out last Sunday He couldn't do a thing with the weather man. who made it so damp for base ball that Manager McDermott was forced to cancel the game It was the hardest kind of luck for 1t may well be imagined what it cost the hustiing manager of the Putnam team to pre- pare for the big game.
 But Babe Ruth is surely coming, unless the weather is against the man ager again next Sunday The game has not been cancelled but just post poned, and the base ball celebrity will be seen on the old Fair Ground dia- mond Sunday, October i2, if it is any ieind of day for out door sport
 Instead of playing for visiting team the big star will wear Putnam uniform and will cover first base and may alsa be seen in the box. The game starts a three corned contest
 
 eastern Connecticut, which will make ii the more interesting
 Manager McDermott had to notify the team at l2.3o last Sunday wheth- CT the game would be staged, and if you remember what the weather was you will not blame him for cancelling the engagement, which would cost about four figures to pull off.
 The Home Run King is an interest 1nx figure in base ball and whether he cones or not the following, from the New York Sunday Times, will be of interest to base ball fans everywhere Keep your eye on the ball!' Sounds like golf, but Babe Ruth, Bos- - ton's leading manufacturer of home runs, was speaking about base ball. Babe doesn't do much batting off the field He doesn't believe in trying to senre base hits with his chin, but ev. cry once in while he can be per, suaaed to go to bat in the conversa tional league, and when he does h' generally knocks couple of verba home runs.
 Naturally. at this time, the all-im portant question for Ruth to answe is What is the secret of successful batting?" It was in reply that Rut nnhesitatingly answered.:

fatal injury of three men and the
wounding of several others. The
wounded were taken to Provident
Hospital, a negro institution, and
a crowd of whites attacked the in
firmary, causing considerable dam
age.
During the rest of the night out
breaks occurred, and although only
one fatality was reported from the
nights orgy of hatred the number
of severely hurt was greater than
for Monday night, probably a dozen
suffering fatal hurts.
Whites More Aggressive
The whites again seemed to be the
more aggressive, the negroes having
been converted to peace by saner
members of their race, or cowed by
the beatings sustained by scores.
Owing to the street car strike the
comparatively few white rioters in
the total population could. not so
handily get together last night, and
no large mobs invaded the black
belt. 1t was mostly guerilla war
fare, but exceedingly bitter. In
some cases men would lie hidden
along boulevard and fire on passing
cars occupied by the mem bers of
the opposite race. In others, a few
whites would assault a building oc-
cupied by negroes in the midst of a
white neighborhood, dragging forth
victim to beating.
Car Strike Aids Negroes
The car strike also helped the
negroes, as favorite form of at

order was to enter a street car and
drag a negro from the vehicle to the
street, where he was manned or
killed.
The police have collected a verit-
able arsenal of weapons since the
rioting began. Every hour q score
or more of negroes are hustled into
police stations and deprived OF
revolvers, daggers and razors. But
arms and ammunition still seemed
to be plentiful.
To start the third day of war
fare, Patrolman Walter Sulliva<
was shot, probably fatally by d
negro whom he was searching in a
vacant lot. AS Sullivan fell his
partner John Keal, shot the negro
dead. During the night fifteen other
policemen were hit by bullets and
one or two may die.
According to police figures, fifteen
negroes and twelve whites have
been killed since the rioting began

since the first rioting Sunday.
