STOLEN BASESFEW IN MAJOR LEAGUE
 BALL THIS SEASON
Big LeaguerS Seem to Be De- pending on BatSmen Too
 Much
By GEORGE CHADWICK pecial Correspondent of The Age-Heraid (CopyrlKht 1921. by The Age-Herald)


 New York, April 30,-Stolen bases in the big league season thus far have been mighty few. In fact, the total of purloined sacks is not much greater tran the home run record to date. Ac- cording to the box scores turned in to the official statistician. there have been 67 bases stolen and 47 home runs have been batted The shower of home runs is as amazing as the scarcity of stolen bases It used to be the other pilfered base abundant
 Where are your stolen bases?" asked of Bill Donovan the manager of the Phillies.
 What do you mean?"
 Aren't there any stolen bases in baseball these days?"
 He paused and pondered Then he said Maybe not. I see your point. At that, I'll bet we've got as many as any other club, almost any club in any event" At the time he made this statement the Phillies had four. FEW STOLEN BASES
 I went to the Keeper of the official figures and asked that they might be inspected out of curiosity to see what had become of the stolen base. once play In baseball that the boys used to brag about. We went through the rec ords, the scores of the games, one by one as they had been played during the season of 1921. There was, as said. a total of 67 stolen bases in the scoring docuuents which had been mailed in, and of the 61 bases gained by skill in base-running, one club in the National league-Pittsburg- H. One club in the American league-Detroit--had seven. and it made nearly all of them in one game. Twenty-six of the total were accounted for among three clubs, two of them members of the American circuit.

Has there been a championship ever won in baseball by team which can steal but a single base where teams of less pretension at least have a record of stealing half dozen2 It's a question full of meat to lput up to the fans who think and the managers who observe.

 To date Harris of Washington is running away from both leagues in stealing bases. If he continues to De so successful he will easily carry away the honors of outwitting pitcher and catcher, even if he doesn't ac- cumulate the total with which Ty Cobb was wont to regae his admirers when the cunning Georgian with Sam Craw- l ford in the background. eluded the watchful eyes of opposing pitchers and catchers.

with stolen bases. They have fleet runrers, but their runners are not crafty They can make an added base on a short hit, but they can't make base right under the eyes of the bat tery Can't players run as well as they could? Are the pitchers more shrewd and the catchers better throwers? on the whole it is not the decreasing speed of players, nor the increasing skill of pitchers and catchers.
 THE ANSWER
 The best answer to the query about lack of base-running is lack of initta- tive on the part of the players. The individual has been submerged to such an extent that he expects to team up on everything, even to getting around the bases The runner will not leave firse base, except by encouragement from the batsman. Standing on first, the runner keeps his eye glued to the batter to see whether a hit and run play is to be tried or whether he Is to be advanced by a sacrifice.
 The managers have got the game SO the heroughly under their mastery that the older players have ceased to care and the younger players are frightened stiff for fear they may be criticised for doing the wrong thing.
