MOST PERFECT PLAYER BOARD EvERCONSTRUCTED WILL SHOW
 EVERY PLAY IN WORLD SERIES

each side of the diamond. The fan can see the box score as the play progresses with every hit. run. put out, assist, and error shown in its proper place the minute the play Is complete.
 Watching the ball player board is even more interesting than the game itself and major league parks are be- ing equipped with player boards to keep the fans posted on big games in other cities while watching their home team play.
 Only Board in Southwest
 The Republican board is the most perfect ever designed and the orders this year far exceeded the supply.
 It will be interesting to Phoenix fans to know that the Arizona Re- publican has the only board of this kind in the Southwest and Salt Lake City has the only other board of this kind west of the Mississippi river. Two west coast papers placed orders for similar boards, but the manufac- turer was unable to fill their order and they will be forced to wait an other year.
 The operations of the board are so simple that any person who under stands the principles of baseball can follow the game without verbal ex- plantations or the plays.
 When the ball leaves the pitchers hands and rolls toward the batter the play is in actual view of the crowd If the batter flies out to left field the ball can be seen going to | the fielder and the minute he makes the put out gong sounds. If the batter hits safely the disk settles on first base and the ball is relayed home with hit credited to the batter on | the scoreboard. If a fielder handles l the ball and throws to first for a putout the ball can actually be seen 1 in play and the throw to first is gauged with the runner, with the fans able to form their own opinions on the play. If batter is safe he holds I the base; if he is thrown out the gong sounds and the runner retires. Eaters Shown on Board I When player comes to bat his name is moved three inches toward l the diamond and remains in that po- sition until he either scores or is re- tired by putout. If he hits the ball safely the next player up is moved l three inches to the center of the l board
