FORGET THE BALL
IS GOLF ADVICE
Billy Evans Says The Stroke Is
The First Thing To Be
/ Learned
BY BILLY EVANS.
(CopYright. 1927

Some years ago a certain major
league baseball manager barred
gloves of any kind during the first
-four days of the training trip.
1t was a radical departure from
the methods ordinarily used in con
ditioning major league ball club.
Naturally the innovation received
much publicity.
The thought was to make the play
ers gradually work themselves into
playing condition, without any in
furious effects. Naturally the alb
sence of the catching gloves kept the
pitchers from cutting loose. 1t also
held for the othes players.
Instead OF bunch Of sore arms,
a directly opposite condition pre-
vailed. The desire was to get the
players in shape to stand the strain,
before bringing the cloves on the
scene.
The innovation took so well, that
many of the major league managers
who at first ridiculed the idea, are
now strong for it. Nothing doing
on the gloves, now is the watchword
in the camps of number Of major
league teams druiug the first week
of training.

eral rule, all such income Is sub
Ject to tax. However, there are ex-
ceptions with which the taxpayer
in the interests OF self as well as
the government, should familiartze
himself.
Salaries paid to its officers and
employees by a state or political
subdivision thereof" city, town,
county or hamlet. are exempt from
taxation. The reason for this is
that the federal government does
not tax such activities OF q state.
Fees recefved by a notary public
commissioned by a state are not
taxable, neither are fees paid jur-
ors by q state or political sub
division thereof Witnesses in law
suits, however, even though SUBJ
spoenaed by states attorney are not
considered employees of the state,
and fees received by them are sub
ject to taxation.
The commissions OF receiver
appointed by state, county or mu-
nicipal coart are not taxable. The
commissions of an administrator or
executor are taxable because they
are not paid by state or political
