Rusie Sees His First
Game in Twenty Years
By WILLIAM B. HANNA.

~ NE of the best pitchers that
ever curved a ball. a big,
~ heavy man with the tan of the
outdoors on his face. stood In a pas
sageway under the grand stand at
the Polo Grounds yesterday and
watched the ball game contempla-
lively.
Not more than three persons In the
900 there recognized Amos Rusie.
star boxman of the Giants twenty
five years ago. Rusie arrived the
night before to take up his job as
assistant to Arthur Bell as Polo
Grounds superintendent, a position
made for him by John McGraw. who
never forgets the old timers and
sticks by those he likes.
First big league game I've seen
in twenty years. Rusie told an ac-
quaintance as he watched the Yam
KEGS and Detroits. I've been out in
Oregon most of the time since left
New York"
The old timer is stout, but no more
so than when he was pitching. He
pitched at 220 pounds In his later
years in the game and says he Is ten
pounds lighter than that now.
The Polo Grounds stands were OF
wood in Rusie's day, the first ball
player had yet to play golf, folks
went to the Polo Grounds in hanson
cabs and IL" trains drawn by steam
engines. A lot of water has flowed
through the Harlem since then.

Questions Answered.

W. French-(a) The runner scores and the
batter is entitled to first base. (b) No; tho
fly" and play can be made unless the
runners foolish enough to leave theiy
bases. The umpire must call ''infield fly"
and the runners by holding their bases are
protected against double play.
NJ. J. Bresln-Neither Is correct. Base
runners advance base each on balk. but
the batter never takes first on one. balk
is dead ball. and no bali is credited
to the batter.
Carl M. Hermann-1. It Is not necessary
for the batter to reach second. Reaching
first Is sufficient. q Yes.
John McCabe-1. Yes; runner may score
on foul caught by an outfielder. or an
infielder either--if he can.
