Puzzling Plays
The Play.

AOS EtAys
What are the rights Of the coach
er?
A play came up in a minor
league game last summer that
brought up the point as to wheth-
er the intent OF q c0acher must be
given consideration. Il
With two out and runners on
second and third, with the ball in
the pitchers possession while
standing on the rubber, the coach
er at third dashed for the plate
yelling "Home!" "Home." His in
tent was to draw throw from the
pitcher.
The pitcher stepped off the rub
her. intending. perhaps, to throw
the ball home. but seeing it was the
coacher running, made no play.
The umpire declared the runner
on third out because of the act Of
the coacher. He held that Il the
coacher attempts to draw q throw
because of his actions the runner
on third is out whether or not q
play is made.
The Interpretation.
The umpire was wrong in ruling
the runner on third was out because
of the coacher's dashing toward the
plate, because no play was made. !.
The rule states he must draw the
throw to the home base for the
runner to be declared out. Is
If such q play came up in game
In which was The umpire / would
suspend the play and send The
coacher to the bench or the club.

HAVERS ADDS
T0REPUTATION
AS COLE KING
Wins in Matches Over Walter
Hagen, a Professional
PLAYED IN SCOTLAND

London, Aug. Arthur Havcrs has
been proving himself worthy of his
title, open golf champion Of Great
Britain. Since he took the crown off
Walter Hagen's brow at Troon, the
young English professional has won
several minor tournaments, broken
some course records, picked up a pile
of pounds and acquired reputation
of being one of the hardest, longest
hitters the game has produced.
Following his rise to glory ut
Troon, Havers went over to the FAM
Gus Scottish inland course, Glen
eagles, and won the 1000 guineas
tournament from a select field. Soon
afterwards he was in France, where
he finished we'll in the open cham
pionships of that country, won by an
other Briton, James Ockenden. Since
returning home Havers has been
hammering away in several tourna-
ments, letting the records fall where
they may.
Playing Mt st. Adams July 10, Ha-
vers won a f450 Tournament, scoring
CT on his second round for a new
record over the Verulam course. He
did it largely with his driver, his tee
shots screaming 800 yards and MOI

longer holes. He played SO smoothly
that almost every hole with his hit

3, 3, 2, four strokes under DOGGY. He
carried the shird green, 1872 yards,

Pitching is the crying need If
every major league club.
That statement goes just about as
strongly for the minors.
There is dearth of pitching ma
terial. 1t is apparent even in the
amateur circles and colleges.
Ten years ago every major league
club boosted If at least four star
pitchers. Most of the teams had four
more in reserve who measured al
most up to the class Of the regulars.
Baseball has undergone many
changes of late, but in no department
Of the game has the contrast been so
striking as in the pitching.
What's the big idea?
Recently was discussing this
phase of the game with former COL
lege star, now director of athletics
at prominent preparatory school.
Here is the solution that he offered
and it seems mighty logical.
"The pitcher was once the hero of
the college and high school teams,
out tnOSe Gays are no more.
He's No Longer Hero.
"The college twirler who let down
the opposition with a few hits and
scored q shutoht was the most talked
about man on the campus. The job
Of pitching offered opportunities ga.
lore for glory. The college athlete
It the susceptible age likes that line
Of stuff.
"Not so many years ago every col
lege coach had a surplus Of pitchina
material. Fifty per cent Of the can.
didates who reported to him had been
pitchers at some time during thei,
career and most Of them were an.
xious to continue.

swat in baseball. with the pitcher as
the big target. Pitching a shutout
game is now the exception. Most of
the contests are large score events

mo youngster likes to be taken
out Of the box. He hates to have the
opposition hit his curves all over

odds are always against his chances

the use?
Batter Is Big Hero.
"The batter is the big noise in
modern BASEBALL. The home run king

Since getting this rather unusual
angle on the scarcity 81 the pitchers

Kinks O. the Links

In medal play, Smith hands in
his card, on which a mistake has
occurred. He plays the round Of 10
holes in 81. His handicap is l6. He
turned in his net total as 80 instead
of 81. The mistake is later discovered
by the official in charge. Is player
penalized for turning in an incorrect
score for the. round?
There is no penalty for such an
offense as above stated. The player
is to merely turn in his score for
each hole. Often players, in order to
find out their actual net score, COM
plete the card by adding the scores
for each hole and subtracting >thc
handicap. "A mistake in addition or
subtraction is always possible. The
player is not supposed to do this, it

After you have overcome fear and
mastered correct breathing under
watet, you are ready to learn bal
ance. You can never become expert
unless you do.
Stand in the pool and grasp the
railing or some other support which
is about the level of the water sur
face.
Extend one foot backward, keep
ing the leg straight, until it is as
close to the surface as possible.
Then take a deep breath and
quickly submergc the face, at the
same time bringing both feet to the
surface and extending the body. Do
not let 60 your grasp of the railing.
As soon as you feel your air sup
ply becoming exhausted, regain
standing position. This is done by
bringing the knees up under the
body until they almost touch the
stomach and then lowering the feet
to the bottom of the pool. Unless
you do it correctly, you are apt to
duck yourself, so it is best to take
it slowly and intelligently.
When you can float yourself and
regain standing position easily, try
the same thing with only the index
fingers touching the support, and
then with the fingers touching the
side of the tank just above the sup
port. You regain standing position
from the latter exercise by lowering
the hands to the support just before
it's time to "come up and then fol.
lowing the correct method. advise
that you try this exercise in water
| about waist deep.
Be content to follow these exer'
cises until you have thoroughly mas
tered them; they are the foundation
of swimming.

They speak of swimming as some

Entirely wrong. Any person ap-

Water Friendly
The water is very friendly and will
do everything in its power to keep
you afloat if you will cooperate with
it. Always bear this in mind.
Then practice getting your face
under water-the dread of many a
novice. This is done with the aid of
large bowl Of water.
Fill the bowl nearly full, take a
deep breath and plunge your face
under the water. Hold your nose,
if you want to. Stay under until
necessity forces you to "come up for
air." Repeat this until you feel
quite at home "under water"
Now try the same thing without
holding the nose and with the eyes
open. At the beginning, do not at
tempt to stay under more than about
five seconds. Repeat, extending the
time under, until done with ease, and
naturally.
Remember while doing this, that
the correct breathing for swimmers
is deep, slow inhalation through
the mouth and rapid exhalation
through the nose. The last bit OF
air always should be exhaled above
the water.
If preferable, you can practice this
by standing in the swimming pool
grasping the railing and submergine
your head.
