the birthday of our own United

The way we celebrate 1t Is of

quiet, undemonstrative. Still,
Monday. when the Fourth Of 1891
appears on the horizon of life,
we will once again feel that we
are glad that America. the United

worthy of either violent or quiet
remembrance. It is. our duty to
remember.
The one day in our history
given to the greater things is

Alex the Giant
Says to Signal
Pitcher Exact
ALEX GAsToN,
OF the New York Giants

Every catcher should know his
pitcher. The catcher should learn
what kind of balls the pitcher
can throw. and how he puts
them over. Practice ten or NJ
teen minutes now and then and
have the pitcher throw the balls
just as he would If there were
a man at the plate.
Never signal for a certain ball
unless you have a good reason
for asking for that kind Of a ball.
There is often a doubt, when
a crackerjack hitter comes to
bat, whether he should be walKeu
or whether the pitcher should
is very, very close. l don't think
the man should be allowed to
walk when there are already two
men out. But IL the next man
up hasn't much ability as a bats
man, it is a good policy to walk
the better hitter.
Never repeat a play immedi-
ately after it has been tried.
The opposing team may catch
on and then it is all on" Mix
the plays.
How . Ball should BE Caught.
The catcher should learn to
throw accurately. This will give
the infielders certain confidence
in him that is necessary IL they
are to be able to work well with
the catcher.
The proper way to catch
ball Is to let IT first hit the glove
and then clap your hand over
it. Don't try to catch. a ball
with the glove alone. 1t may
roll out. Always use your other
hand, too.
A good way to tell whether
or not a batter intends to bun,
Is to watch the base-runner
closely. II he seems to be keep
ing his eyes hard on the bat
ter and edgiug OF the base. you
can be pretty sure the batter
is waiting for short tap.
II you think batter is about
to bunt, signal the pitcher for
a wide throw. Catch this ball
and hurry it away to the base
the runner is heading for so as
to catch him of.
As you signal the pitcher for
the wide throw signal the man
covering the base which the run
ner intends to steal so that he
will know he is about to receive
a throw from the plate and can
be ready for 1t.
