IncIement Weather to Attend the
Opening Exercises.

York.-Justifiable pride in the hand
some new structure, loyalty and de-
yotion to the White Rose town and
firm faith in its future were the doml-
mating notes in the talks made at the
formal opening exercises of YORK s
completed city hall. More than 200

tend the event, which was staged in

made by the Rev. j. l.. Oates. The
presentation of the building was then
made by Mr.. Hart and accepted IN

Mellow, both making appropriate
talks, spiced with wit and humor.
Short talks were made by Mrs. M.
l.. Carroll and w. B. Moore, j. G..
Wardlaw, j. R. Lindsay and e. A.

A pleasing feature Of the exercises
was the musical program, solos being
rendered by Miss Esther Ashe and
Miss Elizabeth Wilborn and a violin
solo by Miss Louise Oates. Miss Hare,
teacher of expression in the city
schools, captivated her audience with
a recitation given with rare grace and
skill.

Q. What IL the usual method Of mea-
suring the distance Of a golf hole on an
air line from tee to green, or along the
surface7
A. Fur proper and accurate figures.
measurement should be taken on m air
line. However, over uneven ground this
would require triAngulation, and OrdinAr-
a few yarde one way or another make NO
material difference IN the hole.
Q. II a player accidentally steps on an
opponents ball while searching for It., is
the opponent entitled to lift it from the
depression?
A. The rules provide that II player
move an opponents ball In looking for It,
the ball shall be replaced. Under the
above condition good sportsmanship and
fairpiay would certainly demand that the
hell he considered to have been moved,
and accordingly replaced away from the
depression.
Q. Where ball Is driven out of
bounds but strikes some object such as
tree or. rock and bounds back, is there
any penalty'
4. No. the ball Is played from where
Il came to rest with no penalty.

Schaefer Leads
to Final Block

Chicago, May lS.-Jake Schaefer,
champion 1872 balk line biliardist,
will start tonight on the third day,
final block OF his l,500-point match
with Welker Cochran, amateur cue
ist, with only an 8l-point lead, as a
result of the challenger's game re-
covery last night. Cochran, at one
time far behind, made high run Of
ls9, but fell two short Of taking the
block. which went to Schaefer. 500
to 498. The score now stands:
Schaefcr, 1000; Cochran, 9l9.
Early in the play last night it ap-
peared that the champion had cinched
his hold on the title, but the brilliant
play by Cochran in the last four
frames forced the champion to the
limit to the block. The squirt has in
creased interest in the match.
Schaefer has the advantage in the
final block, as the balls are in posi-
ton where he can continue the run
which was unfinished when he ran
out last night.

Safe or Out

Q. With one out runner is on third.
A batted ball is hit down the third base
line and the runner who expects that
it will be fielded stands on the base. The
third baseman does not touch the ball
and the runner is hit by it. Is he out
even though he stands on the base?
A. He is. runner Is out when hit
by batted ball. no matter where the
runner may be standing.
Q. The umpire warned our players in a
game that they must not slide headfore-
most. Had he the right to do so?
A. NO. runner may slide as he
pleases. There IL more risk to the run
ner in sliding head foremost than slid
ing feet foremost. .
Q. 1t happened that with three on bases
and two out the batter. who hit the ball
for home run, failed to touch first base
and was called out. and that none of the
runs scored. Why did not the runners
score?
A. The runs did not score because OF
the provision in rule SO, which says that
with two out II the batter is out before
he reaches first base no run can count.
The batter went all the way around the
bases. but technically he did not get to
first.
Q. Is there rule which says the bat
ter is out If he throws his bat after strk-
ing the ball?
A. No. There was one National league
president who made such u rule for his
league. but he had no real authority to
do so.
O. Can player wear his glove at
tached to his belt?
A. He may.
