But there Is a drawback to this ex-
traordinary situation; at least certain
thoughtful trainers are not regarding
this present outdoor work as an un-
mixed blessing. The fear is that track
athletes may get more exercise than
is good for them and that instead Of
improving their form and increasing
their skill and prowess in various
specialties they may go stale early
in the season as result Of their
present activity.
Great Problem for Trainer.
The great problem which a trainer
encounters In the course of a track
season is to keep his men on edge
until the intercollegiates have been
decided and it is not always that he
succeeds in doing this. One may i'm
doubly great now that the athletes
have got into the open much earlier
than usual. Again. soft tracks are
dangerous inasmuch as pulled tendons
are liable to occur when the going is
spongy.
Judging from the present outdoor
form of the various athletes, as well
as from their showing in indoor meets.
the coming track season is not likely
to be characterized by large fields or
performances generally high class

has arisen to prevent the contests.
According to arrangements. which.
by the way, were never definite. the
first game was to have been played
today and the second tomorrow.
Every one was "het up about the
two contests and regret they fell

jennings IL Real Cause.
Those. however. who know Ty Cobb
and had marked his silence about the
proposed battles were not at all sur
prised when the Georgia peach an
nounced that he had been hired to
manage a ball club and not to run
exhibition games. The reason is said
TO be Jennings Cobb showed no great
desire to play base ball under his
leadership. and now evidently he does
not wish to play against a club which
Hughey leads.
As for Jennings. he himself has no
great reason for loving Cobb. and
there are other Detroit veterans to
whom Hugh owes nothing at all.
There is no use going into this mat
ter now; suffice IL to say there is a
general belief among base ball experts
that IL was not Jennings fault that

won pennants, or at least finished
higher up on the ladder. Jennings
has not forgotten this-and there are
other things he hasn't forgotten. Just
the same this didn't make him the
less anxious to go into action as
mentor Of the Giants against his old
team. In fact. he looked forward TO
the encounter.
For Il was McGraw's intention to
start Jennings at once as field man.

the team. However, the former De-
troiter will have his opportunity
later, as there now is no doubt that
NrGraw intends to sit among the

why Players Are Baking.
Aside from actual base ball, an in
teresting phase of the southern train
fact that big league ball players in
ing independent of their profession
ASI . means of livelihood. This. more
than anything, is the cause of the un-
ustfal numbers of hold-outs. if not
sctual desertions, from the base ball
ranks.
Players have found that they either
are in a position to capitalize the
regulations they have made on the
diamond or else they have made good
in trade or farming or something
through their own hard work and en-
terprise.

Ward had reached first base on a

IDENTIFY had orders to sacrifice. be-
cause the game was close and the
Yankees were playing for run. The
first ball pitched to Wick was waist
high and inside. Wick is peculiar

of the delivery. The ball was SO iar
inside Wick decided it would mt MIN

sisted in his attempt to bunt.
Apparently Touched Bat
What happened perhaps no one VIII
ever know As Wick pulled away from
the ball a tick was plainly audible. l
was positive the ball had touched
Vick's bat. while Wick was certain 1t
had lust touched his shirt. Desirous
of getting the benefit of the uncer-
tainty Wick started to nrst oase'

telegraph Wick the pitch was strike.
Wick returned to the plate to resume
his time at bat. Then she uhsuai
thing happened. although 1t passed
unnoticed. Ward who was on second
and had a right to the base since 'ne
foul tin was held by the st. Louis
catcher. logged back to first base. AS
he started to return l felt like calling
out that the pitch was strike. lha'
would have been unfair 10 'ne 81
Louis club, as under the conoitiohs
there could have been no other decision.
By the time Wick had gotten his pat.
and taken his place in the batsman
hox. ward had returned to first and
was standing on that base. LOOKED
for a play on him any minute. because
first base offered him no immunity
from being put out. He had toucneo
second base. which made MN the oc-
cupant of that bag. He could nave
been retired by being touched with the
ball standing on first, or by merely
holding 1t on second.
However. no attention was paid to
Ward. The game was resumed IN the
to second on the next pitch. Not until
the close of the inning, when l IN
formed Ward of what might have
happened. did it dawn on any one
what had taken place. Such play
has never before happened in the
majors and probably never will again.
, Balk should BE Enforced.
Just as unusual was the incident
that came under my observation last
summer. This particular game did
not feature any "bonehead work" on
the part of the player. but an over
sight as to the score. The final score
of the game was 16 to in favor of
the visiting club. although the score
