Be Accurate
Only Balls,
Hooper Warns
Harry b. Hooper,

Right Fielder of the Chicago
White Sox.
Quick and accurate Judgment
of a fly ball comes only after
practice Once it is acquired it
becomes almost instructive. Some
players are never good at it. To
others it is a natural ability.
1t really is a rapid process OF
mental calculation, this judging
of fly balls. 1t is problem
similar to that of an artillery
man. He knows the speed Of
his projectile. He estimates the
amount of resistance it will
meet. Then he figures the angle
of elevation, so that the force of
gravity will land the projectile
at the desired point
The fielder must do the same.
When the ball is hit, he starts IN
the general direction 1t takes,
closely watching the ball. After
1t has travelled twenty or thirty
feet along its course he Is able
to estimate It's speed and its an
gle of elevation. He has already
noted the direction of the wind.
All this gives him a fairly good
idea OF where the ball will land.
He then figures the speed and
direction he will have to take
to intercept the ball when it
nears the ground. II he has a
fairly long run he corrects hrs
course by an occasional glance
at the ball.
A ball hit directly at a fielder
Is the hardest for him to judge.
He can't get its speed or angle
of elevation. In this case the
nearest outfelder can help him a
lot by calling quickly to get in"
or get out" as the case may be.
He has a side view and can tell
instantly whether the ball will
carry over his teammates head
or fall short.
One step in the wrong direc-
tion will put the fielder farther
away from the point of inte-cep-
tion than he thinks. Most of the
balls that are lost through mis-
Judgment are lost by that one
step In the wrong direction.

Another Term

Tom McGreevy, the present clerk

another term for that office. Tom

that he is right. He has certainly

deserving Of the support of organiz-
ed labor. He is union man and a
good one. He has been a member of

union membership to retain it, and is

counties. A civil war was under way
and one skirmish in which 90 were
killed had taken place when the nation
stepped in.
The strikes of the miners have
been frequently Of national import
ance, momentous in their outcome
upon smaller labor organizations.
Many Of them have been marked by
violence, as the men who risk their
lives daily to dig coal in the mines
to keep the industrial wheels turning
would not hesitate to risk their lives
in their fight for industrial freedom.
Many times have they done so.
What worker does not know of Paint
and Cabin creek, Ludlow and Cripple
creek, finally, the battle of Matewan
when "Sid" Hatfield and few brave
miners engaged an armed band of
Baldwin-Felts agents, the mara1ders
of the coal barons who have made
life safe only for autocracy in the
coal fields! When this was over three
miners were dead and seven of the
boldest gunmen that had ever leveled
a pistol were ready for interment.
Recently a subcommittee of the
United States senate's committee on
education and labor, visiting the

Information at first hand, had gone to
Logan and Mingo counties, saw the
tent colonies and penetrated into Lo-
gan past the rife pits and machine
gun nests of Don Chafn. They found
that the condition of the miners had
not been exaggerated. They found
scores of tents, in which the workers
have been living for Ia months, which
were riddled with bullets of the mine
guards; they spoke to women who had
been hiding in bitches and cellars to
escape the nightly rifle fire for hours;
and heard of babies who went with
out milk for more than "a hours be-
cause the police and the state con-
stabulary and specially recruited mill
tia had made certain to put kerosene
in the milk churn and coal oil on the
fruit and vegetables.
Yet the miners themselves were
quite unconscious of the heroic strug-
gle they were making. They did not
seem to appreciate that their fight
had aroused the entire working class
to help them if help should be needed.
The miners, as they stood in little
groups in the hollows where the tents
are pitched, usually in the bend of
some little river, appeared to be the
most disinterested
Theirs was not an attitude of de-
tached resignation, however. The
