TRIPLE PLAY NOT
ODDITY OF OLD DAYS

Not so long ago a triple play was
considered big feat. 1t was looked
upon as the out f-the- ordinary in
baseball. 1t was unusual. as it were.
One or two such performances dur
ing season came close to being the
maximum.
Times have changed CT. recent
years, however. The old three-ply
killings aren't quite so unique; they
are more common now. Fact is, the
play causes but little stir Of excite
ment. The oddly has worn off, APP
parently.
Last season there were II triple
plays registered in the major
| leagues. The American had six of
them, the Red Sox topping all clubs
! with three. A good record, indeed.
The st. Louis Cardinals were close
behind with a pair.

LIFE OF UMP
!. MUCH LONGER
THAN PLAYER
Ry NEA Service


Chicago, Feb. 17.-f you would
enjoy Il long and prosperous major
league career, take up umpiring and
make a success of it.
The life of star ball player is
short at best, but a good umpire, if
there is such person, can go on in
definitely.
There is Bob Emslie Of the Ma
tional League for instance. He
started in 1891, over "a years ago,
and is still at it. While he didn't
work. regularly last season, doing
scout duty for the league much of
the time, he is still a most capable
official.
Tommy Connolly of the Anne rcan
League started in 1898 and has per-
formed for 26 years in the big show.
Hank O'Day, Bill Klein, Charles
Rigler and Billy Evans have all per-
formed 20 years or more at the
game.

Nine Players in

Ry NEA Service

BY NEA Service .---
New York, Feb. l7.-Just nine
players in the American League, who
took part in 100 games or over, failed
to chalk up at least one home run in
1924.
They included McNulty, Fewster
and Lutzke OF Cleveland: Wambs-
gans and O'Neill, Boston; Jones,
Detroit; Ruel. Washington; Gerber,
st. Louis, and Perkins of the Ath-
Ietics. Of the group Wambsganss
played in the most tiits-155.
Two catchers, Ruel and O'Neill,
we're especially down in extra base
.clouts. Ruel, in 149 trays, collected
20 doubles and but pair Of triples,
while O'Neill, playing FOG games,
crashed out Is two-ply smashes and

Billy Evans Says

Now that our distance runners
have fallen before the great Nnrmi,
the sprinters are on his trail.
Charley Paddock's def to the fly
ing Finn was interesting, even II
only publicity stunt.
Paddock is shortly to tour the
world with Loren Murchison. Char
ley realizes the value Of publicity
and usually gets it.
= The California flash said he would
give Nurmi five-yard start in a
1oO-yard dash and beat him to the
tape.
In mere words that doesn't sound
like much Of an undertaking but we
opine Paddock would have his trOu-
bles doing it.
Nurmi is best at the distances but
he is far from ordinary in the
sprints.
In several Of his distance races
he has finished with squirt that
reminded one of the going in 100
yard dash.
On the very best. of authority
comes the word that Nurmi has
done the 100 yards any number OF
times since arriving in this country
in better than IL seconds.
That doesn't sound so big, yet
when one considers it was done in
mere workouts, while Nurmi was at
tired in wooden trousers, cap and
mittens, it stands ont.
If Paddock ever meets Nurmi in
a l00-yald dash, which is doubtful,
he is going to be hard pressed to
beat the Finn.
Recently while Nurmi was demon
strating his superiority over the
