Navy Men Need Rivals.
1t would appear that the Navy is
having more trouble in securing at
tractiVe rowing dates for the Severn
this year than in some time past. Two
of the chief attractions at Annapolis
in the past few years have been visits
from Harvard and Princeton, either
together or singly. But now it looks
as though the Crimson and the Tigers
are aiming to hold a spring regatta on
Lake Carnegie, and are anxious to
have the middies join them in a three
cOrnered race. Since both the Orange
and Black and Harvard crews have
been very decent about going to An
napolis. it is not unlikely that the mid
shipmen will receive the suggestion in
"A hospitable mood. In the meantime
Syracuse is definitely booked for a
race on the Severn, and Pennsylvania
will probably make her usual April visit.

Plays That Puzzle
by BILLY EVANS.

Here is an infield play that . year
ago would have been decided differ
entity by the two major leagues: There
are runners on first and second and
no one out. The batsman hits a high
fly to deep short. which the umpire
rules an infield fly. Each base runner
then goes back to within about five
feet of the first and second to avoid
being retired il the ball is caught. A
bad wind causes the infielder to mum
the ball. The moment he does SO both
runners start to advance. The short
stop makes wild throw in an effort
to get the runner going to third, per-
hitting him to score and the runner
on first to reach third. The team in
the field, after getting the ball back
into the infield, touched second base
and third base. claiming a triple play,
since neither of the runners held their
base, claiming such was necessary to
advance properly on an infield fly.
What about it?
Entitled to Advance.
According to the new ruling on the
infeld fly, base runners can advance
on an infield fly that is not caught,
just as on any other fly ball that is
muffed- The two runners who had
failed to go back to their bases were
entitled to advance at their peril. The
run that scored was legal, and the
runner who advanced to third had a
perfect right to that base The bats
man was out, even though the ball
was not caught. Until last year such
action by the base runners in failing
to return to their base would have
made them liable to be put out. under
the Interpretation of the American
League.
