LESSONS IN BASEBALL
Playing First Base
Copyright, 1922, by thu International Syndicate

This mistake results in the worst and
most common fault of q first baseman
crossing himsef.'
| If you keep your left foot on the base
when the throw is on your left side and
must step over with your right foot to
reach the throw, you "cross yourself. y
The same applies to the right foot, when
| the throw comes on the right side.
First of all, play all infield positions,
| including first base, as far back (deep)
as possible. Then always come in or the
ground ball, no matter how hard it may
be hit. When the first baseman goes
to the bag to take a throw he should
not put his foot in contact with the
bag until he sees on which side the ball
is coming.
Run to the base, stand with both heels
touching the bag on the corner nearest
the fielder who is to make the throw.
Put one foot on either side of the corner
of the bag.
Then when the throw comes step to-
wards it with the foot on the side to
which it is coming. The mere motion
of the step in the right direction will
drag the other foot after it and complete
contact with the bag.
Say you arc taking throw from the
third baseman. Stand on the inside
corner Of the base. The ball comes well
on your left side. Step toward it with
your left foot. The right foot will auto
matically be dragged into contact with
the base.
In taking throw which comes on the
right side. Step toward the ball with
hn rbf rNhoo+ar will Hrau thn
left foot nto proper position i'll contact
with the base.
1t is as easy as shooting fish, yet
many professional first basemen spend
years in the game without learning to
make the proper foot shift.
First basemen should always get into
the habit of reaching as far as they can
This helps the throw-in, that is, com
pletes it sooner than if they wait for
the ball to come to hands held close to
the body.
Play first base, all bases, as deep as
possible. Always go in on the ground
ball. Straddle the corner of the base
nearest the thrower, wait for the throw
to show on which side it Is coming, then
step towards the ball with the foot near
est the side on which it is coming.
Reach out and complete the throw as
soon as possible. When you complete a
play be alert to assist a play at another
base if such a play is on the boards.
First basemen come in all sizes, but
the longer reach first baseman has the
better.

FL CENTRIC BOY GETS
: BEST OF MARTIN
in BOUT
Special to The Press

BRAWLEY, June 2.-The American
Legion arena at Brawley was the
scene of a well balanced fistic program
when the third of Il summer series was
presented Thursday evening to good
filled house.
The asbestos went up at $3.50. Two
youngsters in the paper weight depart
ment styling themselves Kid Spear and
Kid Adams, both of the Brawley Ath-
letic club, went four fast rounds to a
draw. The lads won rounds of applause
from the gallery when they exhibited
some big league fight talent consistent
ly throughout their bout.
Kid Goodfelow of Medford, Oregon
and Kid Spears of Brawley, each tip
ping the beam at 135 pounds, put on
one of the toughest punching battles
ever seen in the valley. The men were
evenly matched and their walloping
ability for the first two rounds was de-
clared draw by a majority of the
fans. Spears smacked his opponent a
dandy on the nose, flooring Goodfellow
for the count. This was the only
knockout of the party.
"Speed Ball." the diminutive color
ed gent of Brawley, in the early stages
of the third round with Young Halo
well of the same burg, turned his back
to sHallowell and returned to his corner
saying, "That guy makes me mad. "
Hallowell is a tall fellow, standing
eight inches over the head of "Speed
Ball. " The two fighters gyrated in
great style as they swung numerically
at the oozone and occasionally landing
good blows on the body.
The next bout featured the well
known Kid Williams of Heber, 172
pounds, and Jack Tye of Westmoreland,
weighing l57 pounds. The former won
the decision after Tye failed to appear
for the fourth round. Tye substituted
for Jack Dement, who was unable tc
fulfil his date with Williams due to
a rib broken in sparring match Thurs
day afternoon. Williams experience
and additional weight were potent fac
tors III his victory. Joe Jico, the ref
cree, received 4 socker in the head by
Tye as he was separating the men in
the first frame.
The much touted Pete Martin of Ver-
non and New York failed to live up
to expectations in the main event with
Kid Mex, the El Centre phenom. Both
boys weighed 122 at ringside. Mex
won the bout by judges decision
after a heavy offense against Martin.
Round one opened with u series of
short jabs to the fee by both men with
an occasional well planted blow to the
body. Mex gloves became well COW
cred with blood from Pete's broad
nose soon after the first gong.
Mex was the aggressor throughout
the first three rounds by using his
famous snappy punches and well di-
rected long right arm to the face and
ear. Pete retaliated in the final with
the same stuff. The bout was acclaim
ed corker and the crowd pushed it.

Playing first base is as easy as rolling
off log. The principal thing to be
learned is to take up a proper stance
at the base so that you can shift your
feet to take throws as they come to the
right or left side. Many first basemen
come to the major leagues without hav-
ing learned to shift their feet to take
the throws.
The young first baseman has a dispo-
sition to first locate the bag with his
foot before the throw is made then, re-
gardless of on which side the throw
comes, to keep that foot on the bag and
step out with the free foot.

FOR COMMISSIONER

". E. Meyers is the democratic
, candidate for county commissioner
for the long term and his friends are
heartily rallying TO the support OF

When the big mines of the district
first attracted attention W. +. Meyers
was quick to see the possibilities Il r
rounding them. He had up to that
time conducted a highly successful
contracting business in Denver, Col.
Coming to Ely in 1906 he invested
the fruits of his years of labor in a
financial way in this district. He
constructed the Dorothy apartments
on hurry street, in Ely, and has since
resided there with his family. This
substantial building, which is now
pointed TO with pride, was Il of the
first of its type to be erected in this
section and has since been generally
appreciated by the public.
