On first reading, the situation
might strike one as complicated yet
there is only one thing for the UNI
pire to do-aIlow the run. II does
seem you are allowing a run to score
after the side has heen retired. but
it is impossible to deprive a runner
of that to which he is entitled. With
the bases filled, and the batsman re-

are entitled to advance a base. There

deprive the runner on third of his
right to score, even though he touches

MARYLAND STATE
PLANS SCHEDULES
Will Garry on intercollegiate
Competition This Spring
in Three Sports.

| Maryland State plans to carry out
! schedules in three sports this spring
base ball. track and tennis. La
crosse. which usually is a spring
sport at State, is not to be fostered
this year because of the lack of
material. time and money. Besides
running intercollegiate competition
in these branches, intramural
athletics also will be carried on in all.
Plans now being developed by those
in charge of athletics at State provide
for interc'ass leagues in tennis and
base ball. for a general interclass
track meet. and a meet between the
sophomore and freshman classes.
Intramural competitions are being
scheduled in other lines of sport, a
sophomore freshman tug of war
being listed for Friday and a cross
country run for a week from today.
The tennis schedule probably Will
involve matches with Georgetown,
Gallaudet. c. u, and Hopkins. The
track events TO be attended are the
indoor meet in Baltimore March %,
the Penn relays, the South Atlantic
Intercollegiate Athletic Association
and probably two dual meets. The
base ball schedule viii include about
twenty games with the strongest COL
leges in the section.
Gallaudet yesterday won another
game in its own gymnasium, taking
V. i. l. into camp by As 10 "a, just
doubling the points scored by the Viz
ginians. Gallaudet went out and got
a good lead soon after the game be-
gan, and from then on there was not
much doubt that the Kendall Green
five would be the victor. Downes
counted % of his teams points, prov
ing himself star in the same way
he has in previous contests. Dohrman.
at forward. also did some fine play
ing. He counted five goals from the
floor. Parrish distinguished himself
for v. p J. by throwing ten goals
from the foul line.
Louis whiting, former Maryland
State and George Washington athlete
has just returned from France, after

Army. Capt Whiting went right
through the fighting from Chateau
Thierry to the Abgonne, and he had
the distinction of eing the first Amer
lean officer in Belleau wood, GO

Several years ago. in an important
game at Havana, Cuba, peculiar
play came up. that caused officials of
the league to cable me the situation
and ask my opinion. There was a
runner on third. two out. the last half
of the eighth inning, the score a tie.
and three balls and two strikes on
the batsman. The next ball delivered
was high and wide of the plate. 1t
was the fourth ball. 1t got away
from the catcher, rolling almost to
the grandstand. The runner on third
logged home while the batsman en-
titled to first base because of the
four balls, raced to second on the
wild pitch.
On the face of it, there doesn't
seem anything unusual about the
situation. However, the batsman who
had received a base on balls failed
To touch first as he raced to second
The ball was thrown to the first
baseman. who touched the base.
whereupon the umpire called out the
runner standing on second for his
failure to have touched first base
That out made the third, retiring the
whether the run scored by the man
originally on third should count.
The team in the. field contended
that, since the batsman had never
touched first base, the throwing of
the bah to that base before he really
touched it made force out of the
play, and. since no runs can be scored
when the third out is made on a force
play the run should not be allowed.
When the batsman received four
balls, that entitled him to first base
Therefore it is impossible to make a
force play in a situation where the
rules entitle the runner to that par
ticular base. In falling to touch first
base on his way to second, he made
himself liable to be put out, and when
the ball was thrown to first he was
properly called out. The run should
have been allowed, because it was
not a force-out as contended by the
team in the field.
The play I have just described was
brought back to my memory by
query I received recently from
Chicago scribe on play put up TO
him for an answer. The play had
base on balls figure prominently.
Here is the query: with the bases
