Plays That Puzzle
:BY BILLY EVANS

Here is a play that is put to me
time and time again. 1t involves
failure to touch a base by the bats
man and the status of the runs scored
on such batsman's hit. The bases are
filled and two men are out. The bats
man hits a drive to left field, which
escapes the fielder and goes to the
fence, enabling the three runners to
score and the batSman to reach third.
The batsman failed to touch second.
The omission was noticed by the sec
ond baseman and the umpire. The
ball was thrown to second. The
umpire declared the runner out on
third for his failure to touch second,
which made the third out. retiring
the side. The question is, how many
runs score on such play?
All Three Runs Score.
All three runs legally score on the
hit. Often the impression is created
that the failure of the batsman to
technically reach second has some
thing to do with the number of runs
that can be properly scored. This is
wrong. The rule relative to scoring
of runs states one run shall be scored
every time a base runner, after hav-
ing legally touched the first three
bases, shall legally touch the plate
before three men are out. In the play
cited, all three runners had crossed
the plate before the third out, hence
were legal.

KAUFF CASE UP TODAY
Giant Outfelder to Ask Delay in
Trial for Illegal Trans

NEW YORK, February 21.-The case
of Benny kauff, outfielder of the New
York Giants. who is under indict-
ment on the charge of making illegal
transfer of an automobile, Will be
moved for preference in part l of
the supreme court before Judge Null
queen today.
1t develops that Kauff and his law
yer will oppose any motion for an
imm ediate trial. pleading that the
player must leave with the Giants
for the training camp on February
27.
The New York Club is reported to
be anxious to get the case cleared
up. 1t is understood that Joseph d.
O'Brien, secretary, telegraphed kauff
after his signed contract had been re-
ceived that he had better come to
New York and clear up his legal diff
culties before reporting at camp.
No answer has been received from
Kauff. He was indicted about year
ago and the case has been angling
fire since then. In the middle of last
years base ball race McGraw sent
Kauff to Toronto, as he feared that
worry over the case had affected the
players work.
Kauff played through the 1nterna-
tional League season in Toronto and
returned in the fall, but the case was
not called and he went to Lancaster,
Ohio. for the winter.

Two Kinds of Devices.
The guards the writer has seen are
of two sorts. One is almost like a
foot ball head guard; the other is
practically a quarter section of a
base bali catcher's mask, fitting
snugly across the eyes and temples.
This has the merit of being incon-
spicuous, quickly adjusted and as
Quickly removed. Certainly the bene-
fits of a guard of the sort will ap-
peal to the players, and if it does not

to compel such protection.
Batters are hit. according to John
-hCbidW, wien tney are trying to
outguess pitcher-and guessing
contests are the rule as between
foundsman and batter. For instance,
a batSman Will see a ball coming
straight for his head. Knowing the
control of the big leaguers he will
decide that the sphere is going to
break. and he stands motionless, ac-
cordingly. If it doesn't break he is
beaned. or has to dodge like lightning.
That was the way Ray Chapman got
hit.
McGraw says there is really no ex-
cuse for batter to get a solid crack
on the head, provided he stands at
the plate correctly, head up. If you
watch the big league hitter evade a
ball you will see that he does it by
jerking his head sharply backward
The amateur is inclined to duck. low

the horsehide pass over. In this way a
