Much weather not altogether TO the
liking of the ball players after their
delightful sojourn at Tampa Is likely
TO be encountered on the stopover
tour to Washington if that of yester
day at Savannah was any criterion.
sunday at Tampa was warm enough
to be midsummer day in Washing
ton. but the Savannah brand of
weather was more like a late October
day in the National Capital. A chill
wind was blowing in from the nearby
Atlantic coast and overcast skies
were decidedly unpleasant.
A day or SO such as yesterday dur
ing the homeward journey may not
bother the players to any extent, but
If the GOODNESS and moisture prevails
all the way to the home town of the
Nationals, some of the athletes prob
ably will lose bit of the condition
1t would be harmful, especially to the
pitchers, who need all the warm days
they can get from now until the
American League season gets under
way
Conroy Likes Cool Weather.
Bill Conroy is one member of the
clan of Griffith who prefers cool
weather, however. He halls from Chi
cago, where the breezeS frequently
blow in from Lake Michigan, and
they generally have considerable win
ter weather. While with Minneapolis
Conroy was stricken with a peculiar
illness that threatened to put him out
player insists that he never. was
bothered by the affection until the
hot days came along. He was under
treatment for some time after the
season closed, and recovered during
the winter
But much OF this idea that warm
weather reduces his effectiveness on
the ball field may be mere fancy with
Conroy. He certainly did not seem
to be impaired physically at the Tam
pa camp. His fielding. both at first
and third bases, was especially good,
his throwing speedy and accurate and
his batting of high order. In the last
ten games at Tampa, Bill pounded
all kinds of pitching, and went with
out a safe hit in only one of the en-
gagements If he works poorly IN
warm weather. he would make a
whale of player in the arctic league.
Conroy seems assured of his job at
third base when the championship
season starts, but there will be others
ready to take his place should his
antipathy to hot weather reduce MS
effectiveness. Within week or two
Bobby La Motto should be thoroughly
rid of his charleyhorse and prepared
to step over to the hot corner at a
moments notice. OSsie Bluege, too.
can take care of the third base posi-
tion right well, although he is no.
stop. Ossie belongs in the first flight
of the big league shortfielders.
There likely will be a third substi-
tute infielder with the squad who can
in a pinch fill in at third. Jimmy
O'Nein probably will be retained by
the Nationals instead of being farmed
to one of the lower-claSS circuits.
The transfer of O'Neill to a minor
league was considered for a time, but
his recent work has been SO impress
sive that he practically is assured a
place with the squad.
O'Neill is. of course, best around the
keystone sack, either at short or sec
ond, but is versatile enough to be used
at third. He has been going along at
a rapid rate in practice at second base
during the past two weeks, and at
Jacksonville Saturday was the only
one of the second stringars to come
through with a worthwhile perform

actually fumbles it. When a fielder Is
going on dead run and reaches
down and to one side to try to stop
ground hit that is just making
time after it has been driven on A
line by a hard batter, the fielder is
not to be charged with an error be-
cause he fails to get the ball. Not a
bit of it Give him credit for going
after 1T. Some fielders would not
take the trouble to bend over to try
to grasp the ball.
There Is rule about giving extra
hits to batters when the winning run
is on the bases. If the winning run
Is on second and the batter makes
long distance hit he is given a two
Dagger. If the winning run is on
first the batter gets a three bagger and
If the winning run is on third he gets
single. If the winning run is on
third and the batter hits the bali
over the fence the latter is to be
given home run, but be sure that
he goes around the bases. He cannot
nave his home run unless he does,
Try to figure out by the best use of
estimating ability whether a fielder
could have made a play even. if he
, had fielded the ball perfectly instead
of missing it. That is another es-
sential which enters into high-class
scoring. If satisfied that he could
not have made the play, no error is
| to be charged.
(Copyripht. 1921
Evening star., 1923-04-10


Some are quite the other way. They
are for giving the batter all that he
gets whether the fielder handles the
ball well or not. If the batter should
hit for three bases and the fielder
should palpably nishandle the ball they
woud give the batter home run.
There is only one thing to do with
the long distance hit. Use the best
possible judgment That seems like
tame advice, but 1t Is the best that
can be given. However, in using per-
sonal Judgment on hits of this char
acter do not forget to keep in mind
that which has been said before in
reference to giving the batter the
benefit Of the doubt. If there is any
uncertainty as to whether the fielder
could have handled the ball better
than he did let the batter have the
benefit of 1t and add the base to his
hit.
There is good reason for this.
The outfield on almost all grounds
Is by no means in as good condition
as the infield. 1t is the extremely
rare exception to find an outfield on
which the ball bounds perfectly and
rolls in straight line and with uni
formity. The ball will start we'll and
strike some small obstruction which
will throw it to one side, and in the
long run which the outfielder has to
make for the ball he is often thrown
so far to one side that there Is no
possible way for him to get up to it,
Yet there are scorers who are in
clined to record this as an error be-
| cause the outf1elder was too slow"
1t is not good scoring. The scorer
Is not in position to know what
speed the outflelder was using and
he almost certainly cannot estimate
well at what speed the ball was
travelling. That is fully as impor-
tant as the other consideration.
Be sure that when a fielder is
charged with fumbling the ball he

THE HOME STORES

Some people frequently get the
idea that there is lot of prof.
teering in retail trade, but if these
folks only realized the true con-
dition of affairs they would know
that the retail stores are doing
business today on a smaller mar
gin of profit than ever before.
The higher range of prices pre-
vailing since the war has stimu-
lated competition and has forced
retail trade to remodel its system
of operation and make every pos
sible improvement and economy
in its methods. The stores are
saving a margin for the public
as the result of improved distri-
button methods.
Merchants today are putting
more energy and deep thought
into their work than ever before.
They understand markets better
and they train their employees to
render better service.
The best way to make the peo-
pie of Annapolis realize the quail
ity of service they get from their
stores, is by the consistent adver-
Using of those stores. AS they
read the newspaper advertising
people often learn about special
chances to buy goods which they
might never have known about
had it not been for those notices.
They learn that the local stores
are carrying excellent lines, and
they frequently get information
showing them how they can save
money by prompt purchasing.
They find out that their home
merchants have been buying the
best merchandise available. They
discover that their home stores
are working with all their might
to provide the necessities and
conveniences of life at the lowest
possible price consistent with
substantial merit.
In other words, the advertised
store is the appreciated store.

CARE NEEDED TO WASH
KNITTED GARMENTS

The soap should be white and
should never be rubbed on to the gar
ment. 1t should be dissolved in the
water before the garment is put in.
Let the garment soak in the luke
warm suds for a few minutes, then
squeeze through the hands, avoiding
wringing, until the dirt has disap-
peared. Keep the sweater or the gar
ment under the water while squeez-
ing. Rinse in luke warm water, until
the water is clear, squeezing the gar
ment as dry as possible for drying.
To dry, put Turkish towel on a
nat surface away from the sun and la!
the garment on it. If there is place
where the breeze can quicken the dry
ing, so much the better, as the gar
ment so dried will hold its shape bet
ter and come out more fluffy. In plac-
ing the garment on the towel, try to
stretch it to the original size Some
women find that marking the outline
of the garment on the towel before
washing it is the best way.
Very stretchy garments should be
washed in a pillow slip which is
shaken up and down in the suds until
the garment is clean, then rinsed I'M
til the water is clear. The garment
should be left in the pillow slip to dry
The pillow slip should be hung on a
clothes line in the shade and where
the wind can reach it.

HONOLULU, May 5. That the
spirit and smells of the Far East
hover over the Honolulu postoffice as
one of the prime evidences OF the
city's cosmopolitan position at 'the
crossroads of the Pacific" is reveal
cd any day on which a vessel arrives
from the Orient.
Dead snakes, mah-jongg sets, Fill
Pine smoking tobacco strong enough
to knock a man down, strange must
cal instruments, pork, betel nuts,
dried fish, herbs for medicine, jade
mandarin coats, silks, fans, ancient
eggs, porcelains, kimonos, idols and
material for soups-this is a typi-
cal list of items that may be found
in any mail from Japan, China and
the Philippines, according to Post
master ID. H. MacAdam.
The miscellaneous packages also
bring with them tremendous amount
OF detail work, for at least so per-
cent of all the letters and packages
in mail from the Orient are ad-
dressed solely in the language Of their
origin, which must be translated in
to English before they can be dis
tributed. For instance, out of re-
cent mail containing 10000 letters,
5000 were addressed only in Japa-
nese characters. This necessitates
the employment OF Japanese, Filipi-
no, Chinese and Korean clerks
The mails between Honolulu, the
Orient and the South Seas are grow

piled by Postmaster MacAdam In

CRIME HAS HELPFUL ALLY
IN MODERN AUTOMOBILE

CHICAGO. May 5.-The motor car
of today, in the hands of thieves and
robbers. has far outstripped the stolen
horse of pioneer days as an aid to
crime. says the Chicago Crime Com
mission in its latest bulletin.
While the horse thief in the days
when justice was stern and swift
might see himself dangling from a
halter, the auto criminal has a diff
ferent mental picture in the event of
capture, according to the commits
sion. His modern view includes ar
rest, release on bond, conferences in
the well furnished Offices of the Grim
inal lawyer, trips to court, delays,
possible conviction, a new bond, APP
peal to the Supreme Court, the FIX
ing" of witnesses and escape.
Motor cars were a factor in 355 fell
ony cases in Chicago in 1922, the COM
mission points out, but the criminal
court increased the percentage of de-
PENDANTS penalized in 1922 to 81 per
cent, as compared to 25 percent in
1921.
Ninety percent of Chicago robber-
les. in the opinion of these experts,
are preceded by the theft of an au-
tomobile. and in 1922, 2,0O7 robberies
were committed. These involved lis
defendants charged with robbery with
gun in cases where automobiles
We're taken from their possessors. OF
these lis, only IL suffered penalties,
seven going to the penitentiary, four
to the refornatory and one to the
house of correction.
During the year Is manslaughter
cases were called in criminal court
