NEW BRIDGE MAY BE HIGHER.
Continued from Page IL

appears, after final consideration to be
an unwise move, but present probabili
ties favor it. 1t is not believed the
water and ice ever will rise to a height
in the Connecticut river which would
demolish a bridge whose floor was six
feet higher than that of the one which
was destroyed a year ago next Monday
night. but such a thing IS not outside
the realm of possibilities and an addi-
tional foot might prevent disaster.
When the water gets high enough so
that it spreads out and runs over the
roadway on the island the road acts as
a spillway. a safety valve as it were,
otherwise even a seven-foot increase in
the elevation of the bridge would not be
sufficient.
The contract with the United Con
struetion Co, called for the completion
and erection of the bridge by March l
but as the bridge was not in position
on that date the bonding company which
stood back of the bridge company has
been notified that the contract has been
broken. This was done, however, as a
matter of protection to the town in case
the town should make a claim for dam
ages. Whether such a claim will be

Whether the towns will ask for a

persons have been asking. In response
TO this question Chairman S. A. Rich

that there had been no material reduc-
ton in prices by the United States
Steel corporation. which furnishes the
steel for this bridge. and that the reduc-
tions which have been made by other
concerns were made to bring them down
to the level of the United States Steel
corporation prices.

Plays That Puzzle
BY BILLY EvANSs

Here is a play in which the calling
of balk. the failure of the pitcher
to heed the call and the action of the
batter in hitting the ball caused trou-
BILE. There is a runner on first. The
pitcher. after several efforts to catch
him mapping, pulls a move which the
umpire rules balk. The pitcher
failed to hear the call of balk or ig-
nored it, for he delivered the ball to
the batsman. The batsman knew the
umpire had called a balk, but when
the pitcher delivered the ball hit for
three bases. scoring the runner from
first. When the umpire first ruled the
move a balk the catcher started to
protest the ruling. After the bats
man had hit for three bases he called
the umpire's attention to the fact that
he had called the move balk. What
should have been done?
Bnlk should BE EnfOrceA.
The moment the umpire ruled the
move by the pitcher a ball play was
suspended. What happened after the
umpire so ruled was Of no concern. The
pitcher delivering the ball and the bat
ter hitting it for three bases had no
bearing on the game. The runner. who
was on first. was merely entitled to ad
vance to second. while the batsman
should have been made to hit over
again

runners on second and third and one
man out. The batsman hit q short fly
to right field. which. it seemed. would
surely fall safe. The runner on third
held his base. realizing that il it did
fall sale, he probably would be able
to score IL desired, although. being
twelve runs behind. proper base ball
on his part demanded that he hold
third base. For some reason. the rum
ner on second. finally decided the ball
would fall safe and he made a be-
lated dash for third.
The second baseman made a rather
spectacular catch Of the ball. II re-
quired a bit of acrobatics to complete
the play, and as he caught the ball
he fell.
1t was practically certainty a dou-
BILE play would result. The runner on
third who had held his base. ap-
parently so decided. and logged to-
ward the plate. which was also in the
direction of his bench. i have always
thought he had decided to get his
sweater or glove before going to the
clubhouse. The runner on second gave
up in his despair and made no great ef-
fort to get back to second, until the
throw got away from the shortstop. He
slid back into second safely, but over
slid the bag and was finally tagged out.
The situation was such a ridiculous one
no one in the press box paid any atten-
tion to the runner. He managed to
cross the plate just before the out. scor-
scorers box I explained the play to one
of the scribes. believing he would tell
the rest Of the boys. He kept it to him.
self, and the next morning his paper
was the only one to carry the correct
score. | imagine some writer's must
have said unkind things about him for
not passing along the information that
had been intended for all.

c. j. WELL FIXED IN BOX
Has About Best Trio of Pitchers in
Colleges in Reynolds, Hyman
and Bissonette.

When the Georgetown University
nine takes the field the latter part of
this month. it probably will have the
most brilliant set of pitchers to be
found with any college base ball team
in the country. Last year. the Hill
toppers headed the lists with Art
Reynolds. elongated right handler.
and Sam Hyman. husky portside
finger. and to this pair has been
added Del Bissonette. who established
a most enviable record in New Eng
land before coming to Georgetown.
Reynolds and Hyman carried the
team to success last season and the
work Of the Hilltoppers was SO good
that most critics placed the team at
the top in ranking eastern college
mines. Reynolds had more than pitch
ing to keep the team in the running.
The big hurler is an exceptionally
heavy hitter and broke up more than
one game with his trusty fail.
Bissonette did considerable pitch
ing in amateur leagues around New
England the early part of last sum-
mer and his work was so good that
he earned a place with a prominent
Independent club. While pitching for
the latter aggregation Del passed
out licking to the ST. Louis Car
dinals and did the job in finished
style. too.
With this trio Of mound performers
at hand. Georgetown may be counted
upon for another big year on the
diamond

Conversely. misplaced shot on
either hole will cause many a player
in the coming open to spoil what
might otherwise be a fine score. and
there is vast opportunity for going
wrong. Neither is particularly diff
cult for the long and straight player.
but good tee shots are essential at
both. In fact, TO get home on the
eighteenth in two shots requires a
very good tee shot. The first hole
does not need SO long a ball from the
tee. its chief difficulties lying in the
second shot or the approach.
Offers Nothing Terrifying.
No. l. a distance Of 80 yards from

caliber of those who will compete in
the open championship. Nor has ii
any serious artificial difficulties to
catch the wayward bail.
Its charm. which is peculiar to
most of the holes OF the Columbia
Country Club course, and its general
difficulty. lie in the exceedingly in
genious use made of the ground lay
out and the utilization of every roll
of the surface to bring out some
added factor to force good shots.
For example. from the back tee. the
shot must carry brook at the bot

away. A topped ball has not the
ghost of a chance Of getting through
the ditch. nor very much chance of
stopping between the tee and the ra-
vine, for the ground slopes toward
the natural hazard. Not very far of
the line to the left is row of trees,
which in the summer time nave con-

with the possibility of badly hooked
shot going out OF bounds.
The difficulties to the right are not
so bad, but are quite severe enough
to keep the player with a sliced ball
from getting home in two shots.
There is narrow ditch to the right,
and the second shot from a sliced
tee drive must carry to the green
at an almost impossible angle.
Paralleling the hole all the way to
the green runs the ditch. with very
heavy rough grass and berry bushes
on the hillside to the right. A grassy
trap extends across the fairway forty
yards in front of the green. which is
