COBURN NOTES
Midgets TO oppose ". IL. 5.

The Coburn NUGGETS surely are in
difficulty with their games. There
were two teams scheduled to appear
last night and it was impossible to
| make final arrangements during the
day to complete the deal and as a
result the NIidgets have been with
out a game. Coach Hendricks has
promised to send an eleven over to-
night that will give the youngsters
a royal battle. SO at i o'clock at
the Libbey Field the Midgets Will
have their long deferred competition
Thursday night they were given a
light workout by the coach Most
of the time was spent in signal work
The boys seem to need this more
than any other part of the game
There are several of the boys who
| have never played the game and as
a result are not acquainted with the
fine points. 1t was very noticeable
in the last encounter, when the coach
continually had to tell the boys
where 10 play. But in this game the
Midget mentor thinks the boys will
play different game. The lineup
| will be as follows: Dobbins and Con-
nell or Brown, ends, Hilton and
Merrick, tackles, Holmes and Morse.
guards. Flemming center. Gorham
quarterback. Mitchell and Sweeney
halfbacks. and Fowler fullback The
boys are all primed to go out and
win.

The third baseman must play i'll for
the possible bunt. If there is fast
runner on second base and good
bunter ut the bat stealing third base
is as easy as kiss The only way to pre-
vent the runner on second from stealing
to third is for third baseman to play
back and let the pitcher take care of a
possible bunt. Few pitchers, especially
big pitchers, can field good bunts.
If the third baseman plays in the run
ner steals behind him. If the third
baseman plays back the batter bunts,
beats the throw to first and the runner
walks to third with chance to reach
1t may be safely said that the third
baseman is at the mercy of a smart left
handed hitter who can both bunt well
and cut sharply. The only thing left
for the pitcher to do is to keep the ball
inside the plate to the batter. Then if
the latter can pull he can make the
pitcher wish he had never been born.
The pun stroke is really a very bad
one for the left-hander because it sends
the ball towards first base, where big
glove awaits it. If the second baseman
fields the ball the throw to first base
| is short The first and second bascman
can stand 50 feet from the plate, the
throw being short where the third base
man must stand within so feet of the
plate The second and first baseman
can cover much more ground to field a
ball than the third baseman can. They
can tumble, kick the ball about for sew
eral seconds, yet get it to first in time
to make the out. 1t the third baseman
fumbles, he has long throw to make
and the runner may beat it. To get a
fleet man the third bascman must make
a perfect play.
Fast balls outside CT the center Of the
plate are best suited for cutting
With a runner on first or second
base the cut becomes valuable stroke
for it enables the runner to 90 farther
than on hit to left or center fields.
With q runner on first or second, the
pull to right becomes the most valuable
stroke for left-handed hitters.
A batter cannot very well cut ball
that is close to him although some of
them are skillful enough to do so. 1t is
not easy to cut slow or medium paced
ball hard.
The cnt stroke is made by hitting Late
as the ball is above the plate, with the
forearms and wrists and is more of q
chop than anything else. 1t may be
started as far back as the pull but the
stroke finishes when the ball is hit
The bat is not carried through mora
than inches after hitting the ball.
Everybody who has any pretensions
to being a baseball player should learn
how to cut.

Tilden of Philadelphia and Little Vim
cent Richards of Yonkers yesterday
captured the intersectional doubles
match which decided the East-West ten

The final score: 6-S, Ga, 81, 6-l, 6-3.
By winning yesterdays doubles the
eastern players are able to take the
team championships back home with
