 Outfielder, Chicago White SOx. Fa- m0us for the sensational catches which he makes. Oftentimes saving a game by them I consider three things to stand out above all others as the most important things in baseball. If you are to be d good player. I rank them in the follow ing order: l. Practice: 2. Ambition and love of the game; ?. Ability. A really good ball player has all of these things A most notable example of 1 man who used the ambition to be a good ball player is Jamieson, of Cleveland. By sheer ambition and love of the game coupled with practice, he has transforme ed himself from a mediocre ball player to a very skillful and dangerous ball player If ambition aud practice are present the ability will usually be developed a

J. SMITH FAR AHEAD , IN SOUTHERN BATTING
Stewart And Marriott Staging Close Race For
 Stolen Bases -Karr Best Pitcher

Smith of Atlanta has it all to him self among the heavy wallopers in the Southern association. It had been ex- pected that the hard hitting infielder would come back to the rest of the clouters, but 50 far he has disappointed the field.
 Even Carlyle of Memphis, who came to the front after long chase, has ap- parently given up the race, as he has been unable to get any nearer to the slugging third sacker. The change of air for Lapan apparently did this. hard hitting catcher no good and although the former Arkansan has been able to keep up among the first half dozen or so, he himself is far below the average he enjoyed while in the Ozarks.
 Burrus of Atlanta, who has not been playing in every game on the schedule, has been doing as well with the stick as any of the others Guyon of Lit tie Rock came up with . whirl, but subsided slightly, although he is still among the leaders so far as rating goes. Paschal of Atlanta Is another one whom 1t has been hard to shake off. Others who have been knocking at the portals near the front are Yaryan and Barber of Memphis, R. and D. Wi. Hams of Mobile and Stewart of Bir- minghan.
 Racs Close
 The race below Smith and Carlyle has always been close enough to pro- d1ce a tie between rival clouters prac- tically every day.
 Paschal of Atlanta is about the only one who has added anything to the homerun industry. This clouter sent two balls to the wide open spaces in one game, which elevated his total to IA. ]. Anderson of Chattanooga is still the leader with 16.
 Marriott of Mobile and Stewart of Birmingham have the race for stolen bases all to themselves as usual. Mur- ray of Nashville has cut loose from the rest and run up big lead in total runs.
 Karr of Atlanta has added three vic tories to his string without tacking on a single defeat, thereby becoming the leading pitcher in the league with the impressive total of IS and 5. Whit taker and Hollingsworth of New Or leans are nearest
 Atlanta is still dropping in percent age so far as team batting is concerned and is under Birmingham and Nash vile. New Orleans has kept up its even clip in fielding and has improved in hitting getting out of last place, which it has turned over to Mobile.

There was considerable discussion
as to what the ':circuit" probably

with his eye and finally traced 1t TO

Here an earnest youth, seated be.
fore some sort of microphone ar

strains from harmonica.
The amateur experts in front of
the store, still discussing the hook.
up when the incredulous one re.
turned with the news, silently skunk

RADIO.
FANSHELPED
IN STORM
Several Instances When 0per-
ators Were Called to Serve
During Crisis.

Amateur radio operators situated
in northern New England were of
great help during the big storm
which recently swept that section Of
the country.
One Of the first to seek the assist
ance Of amateurs was the superin-
tendent Of telegraph of the Boston
and Maine Railroad. When he found
it was impossible to get train re-
ports through the regular channels
the superintendent got in touch with
Waldo j. Kelley, radio ICPI of
Watertown, Mass, and asked If it
was possible to communicate with
the principal cities along the line.
Kelley succeeded in raising P.
Francis Hahn of Manchester, N. H.,
and after three hours of hard work
through interference of all kinds,
was able to report to the superin-
tendent that everything was clear
between the cities of Boston,
Dover, Portsmouth and Portland.
While the Boston and Maine
traffic was being cleared, officials of
the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad called Kelley and
asked him to reach stations in the
vicinity of Cape Cod. Finding that
station IRA in Somerville was in
commission and ready to help, Kel.
ley assigned the southwark traffic
to him. This station soon located
three trains between Boston and the
Cape.
When he returned from his days
work, George w. Lang, operator of
station 1KA Of West Somerville was
pressed into service and picked up
clio G. Gavallini, operator of 1RR.
who was in charge OF the Western
Union office at Plymouth, Mass. He
took his report of conditions and
quickly turned it in to the Boston
office.
Realizing that it might be neces.
sary to operate during the quiet
hours" Charles c. holster, super.
visor Of radio at Boston, gave Mr..
Kelley and Mr.. Lang permission to
operate. 1t was not necessary, how
ever, as the service was then well
out.
