Life Beneath the Big Tent
A MAJOR league, the same being slang
= for tho Rig Tent. requires about
200 earnest athletes with which to start
q session
In order 10 take part in as many
as a thousand ball games the athletes
in question will have to last for some
thing approaching seven years.
DO you know how many ball players
in the National League have lasted long
enough under the Big Tent Of the game
to take part in 1000 or more contests!
Exactly thirteen. And not one of
these has reached the 1000 mark, al
though Ed Konctchy is only 200 games
shy.
So out of tho 200 bali players starting
North from National League camps in
tho spring Of 1914 only thirteen are
left. about one out of every sixteen.
Seven per cont Of league can last

NUMEROUS combatants h0y" asked
~ from time to time why Ruth strikes
out so often.
Part of this is due TO the fact that
Ruth takes mighty lungc at every
swing. thereby wrecking part of his
balance and control.
Another part is due to the fact that
smart pitchers wisely make him swing
at bad balls frequently, having no de-
sire. naturally. to groove ono.
