TIP TO scoRRs

aR z e z x z q z z
Scoring baseball is fascinating
sidelight of the game and with little
practice according to simple set OF
rules, such as are found in any score
book. it's easy enough to be worth
whatever trouble the learning takes.
The main thing in scoring is to
know when you are right. Opinions
differ on hits and errors, but once
the game is over and the last square
filled do you know whether or not
your score is right?
Here is the way to find out:
Add the number of at bats, sacrifice
hits, sacrifice flies, bases on balls and
hit by pitched balls of one team. They
should equal the runs scored and men
left on base by that team plus the
number of men put out by their OPP
ponents
Check the other team the same way
and you'll discover the errors which
otherwise are bound to creep into
summary.

THE SPLITTER.
Moisten one side of the ball with
saliva and throw it so it leaves the
tips of the fingers with the same arm

Throw it overland for the drop and

jumps will result in both cases.

The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1919-05-13

Before taking up the different curve
pals it would be well for young
pitchers to first get control of the
khaH Control does not mean throw
ing the ball over the exact center
OF the plate, but in working the
Corners and in keeping the pill where
you know the batter is weak. Don't
try to strike every man out, but
save the arm as much as possible.
Remember there are eight other play
ers besides yourself. Work in har-
mony with your catcher and take his
advice as to what to throw. He has
more opportunity to study the batter
than you. Learn to field your posi-
tion. A pitcher has many chances to
handle a batted ball during a game
and bad fielding on the twirler's part
would be fatal.
FAST AND SLOW BALLS.
To throw the fast ball grip the pill
with the first two fingers on top and
athe thumb, underneath. Throw the
ball with a swing of the shoulders
and body as well as the arm.
For the slow ball hold the pellet with
All four fingers and the thumb. Be
sure % use the same motion for throw
ing each ball whether curve or
straight. Mix these two deliveries up
with your curves as nothing viii fool
the batter more than a change of
pace.
THE INsHooT.
Keep the hand in an upright posi-
ton and grip the ball firmly with the
first three fingers and the thumb.
Deliver the ball over the tips of the

SCHOOL REPORT
SHOWS SPLENDID
MANAGEMENT
Annual Report Of Superintendent Of
County Schools Just Filed Is High.
ly Compllmented By County
Officials - Good Balance
Left In School Funds.

The annual report of the County
Superintendent of Schools has just
been filed by Superintendent George
H. Turnipseed with County Judge H.
P. Purnell for his investigation and
approval and for forwarding to the
State Superintendent of Public In
struction at Frankfort.
This report is said by those who
have handled such reports heretofore
to be the best school report that has
been filed in Mason county in years.
The report is in detail and shows that
during the year there has come into
the hands of the County Superintend-
ent and the County Board of Educa-
tion total of $66677 from all sources
and that the expenses of the county
schools for the year have amounted to
$50 9,094.45 leaving a nice balance in
the school fund to begin the new year
with
During the year the schools of the
county have instructed 2,932 pupils of
which 1853 were in the three county
high schools. There has been an aver
age daily attendance at the various
schools of 1856 students and these
have been instructed by 80 teachers.
The most interesting feature OF the
entire report is that section devoted to
the expenses of the County Superin-
| tendent. That County Superintendent
| Turnipseed rs the most economical
| school head the county has ever had
is shown by the fact that during the
year Prof. Turnipseed's expenses have
amounted to only s657 above his sal
/ ary. This feature is absolutely as
founding and brought from County
Judge H. P. Purnell and the other
county officials the highest praise. Ma
son county has never had school su-
perintendent who has cost the county
less money and who has accomplish
ed more.
| This record is one that will not like
ly be equaled by any school depart
ment of such large proportions not
only in the state of Kentucky but as
we'll in the whole of the United States
The year has been very successful
one despite the many handicaps the
school authorities have faced. 1t is
not likely that there has ever been
such interruption Of school work as
there was during the past year occa-
stoned by the influenza epidemic but
the teachers expect to make up for
lost time during the coming season by
one Of the hardest years work they
have ever done.
The Public Ledger voices the SEN
timents of every one in Mason county
in extending hearty congratulations tc
Prof. Turnipseed upon this wonderful
record Of achievement and extraordi
nary management.

MRS. HUGH WARDER
KILLED BY SPECIAL
TRAIN ON |. & N.
Aged Woman Was Crossing Railroad
Track at Helena Station When
Special Running at Rapid
Rate Of Speed Strikes Her
Death Almost Instant

Mrs. Hugh Warder, aged about 65
years, was struck and almost instant
ly killed by special North bound
train on the L. & N. railroad at Helena
Station about 4:3O O'Clock Wednes-
day afternoon.
Mrs. Warder was crossing the track
at Helena Station to visit a friend.
She had waited until the regular
South bound train had passed the sta
tion and she was not expecting fast
train in the opposite direction. The
special was the regular semi-monthly
pay train bearing the District Super
intendent Pay Master and other offic-
ials of this division of the road and
was said to have been running at
very rapid rate of speed. Mrs. Ward
er was almost over the track when
bar on the engine struck her and
knocked her some thirty feet, clearing
her boy of the track. She was car
ried by several who saw the accident
to the L. & N. station but died in about
five minutes.
Mrs. Warder's husband had only a
few months ago retired from the po-
sition of station agent at Helena Sta
ton, having held that office for many
years. She is survived by her husband
and one daughter, Mrs. Mary Dugan,
of New York, besides two sisters, Mrs
James Claybrooke, of Washington and
Mrs. Elizabeth Clay, of Austin, Texas.
Mr.. Thomas Forman, of Tolesboro, Is
brother.
Mrs. Warders funeral will be from
the Mayslick Christian Church Satur-
day morning at 1870 o'clock with SER
vices by the pastor, Rev. W. ]. Loos.
Burial will be made in the Mayslick
cemetery.

OPPORTUNITY or
FERED SOLDIERS IN
MOTOR TRADES
kcute Shortage In the Motor Industry
Throughout the Nation Offers Good
Good Jobs to Soldiers Who
Learned Trade In Army.

There is an acute scarcity Of skilled
labor in the motor trade throughout
the United States and particularly in
Chicago, 1t Is reported today to Col
onel Arthur Woods, Assistant to the
Secretary of War, by the editor OF a
leading motor magazine. There are
therefore excellent opportunities for
skilled labor along any line connected
with the motor industry, for finding
satisfactory employment.
This offers an attractive field to dis
charged service men, great many OF
whom received a thorough training In
the handling of motors during their
service in the Army. The motor in
dustry, 1t is further reported, has util-
lied the services of discharged SOL
dfers and sailors to the fullest extent
Practically all Of the men returned
from the service who before enlisting
we're in the motor industry or trade
have been reemployed. In addition,
great many men who have been train
ed along lines while in the service
have also found employment.
On account of the labor unrest In
practically all skilled labor lines
however, and on account of the falling
off of immigration and apprenticeship
during the period of the war, there are
still a number of excellent opportun'
tiles open to ex-service men who be-
fore the war were members of the mo-
tor industry, or who during the wal
acquired skill In the motor trade.

SMALL BOY RUNS INTO
AUTO ON BICYCLE

Lynwood Austin, bright little. son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Percy Austin, OF East
Second street, met with rather pain
full accident about Q o'clock this af-
ternoon while riding his bicycle on
East Second street in the Sixth ward.
The little fellow was riding along,
more than likely looking at his ped
dies, when he ran directly into the
rear of an automobile parked along
the curb. He was thrown of the bicy-
Gle and struck his head cutting a rath-
er deep and ugly cash on his forehead
At $3.50 o'clock he was resting easily
and 1t was not thought that the wound
would prove very serious.

his machinery also came force of ex-

Immediately getting things in order
for the work on the pike
Mr.. Billiter bears the reputation of
being one of the most progressive road
contractors in the state of Kentucky.
He is probably better equipped for
road work than any other contractor
in the state and he is anxious to get
the work on the Sardia pike complet-
ed so that he can get another contract
and get it finished before the season
closes. It is therefore expected that
the work on the Mason county pike
will go forward very rapidly and that
the pike will be in first class condition
before long.
The only other road work to be done
on large scale in Mason county this
year will be the resurfacing of the
model pixies of the county by the state
force and this work is expected to be-
gin in a very short time so that this
job will also be completed this sea

MASON'S new ROAD TRUCK
WILL Be 3.T0N PACKARD
Best Automobile Truck Made Is Al.
lOtted to Mason County According
to Information Received This
Morning BY County Judge.

County Judge H. P. Purnell several
days ago received a communication
from State Commissioner Of Public
Roads Wiley in which ne was inform
ed that Mason county had been allot-
ted another army turck making the
third since the Federal government
had apportioned army trucks among
the counties for road work.
This morning Judge Purnell receiv-
ed letter from Commissioner Wiley
informing him that the third truck
which had been allotted to Mason
county was a large three-ton Packard
truck and that in this lot there are a
number of new trucks while there
were also a number of used machines.
These machines will be delivered to
Louisville and the various counties
will be expected to go to that city to
receive them. When the trucks are
received representatives of the var
ious counties taking part in the dis
tribution will be called upon to draw
for new and old trucks. 1t is to be
hoped that Mason county will be lucky
enough to draw one of the new un-
used machines.
1t is thought by the state depart
ment that all of the three machines
which have been given to Mason coun.
ty will be received in a short time ant
the county officials are hoping thai
they will soon be received as they are
badly needed in the road work this
summer
