A BEER DOESN'T
 SATISFY DRINKERS
That Is What Canadians Tell
 U. s. Investigators

Toronto, Aug. 26 Pp-The sre- cial committee of the United States congress, appointed to inquire into the workings of the eighteenth amendment to the United States con- stitution were guests at dinner last night of the Ontario prohibition union. The Americans, who are headed by representative Grant M Hudson of Michigan, at present are touring Ontario to obtain informa- ton on the kale of A beer Tn the province and the workings Of the temperance law in general.
 "We first asked whether A beer had satisfied those who wanted a stronger alcoholic beverage" said Mir. Hudson at the dinner. "and fully o5 per cent replied that 1t had not. we were told that, after trial of It, the populace turned away from it as being no better but more costly, than the old 2.5 beer,
 "Our next question was whether the sale Of A beer had decreased the sale of bootleg liquor. The uni- versal reply was that it had tn- creased. rather than decreased it. Also we inquired whether the beer had peaned the thinker of hard li- uuor to the mild beverage, and we learned that 1t had not, In fact. vir- tually every person we interviewed declared the whole system most un- satisfactory"
 With regard to prohibition In the United States. Mir. Hudson asserted that sentiment in It's favor was be- coming steadily stronger. The next congress would show the largest ma jority on record in support of the eighteenth amendment and there was not the slightest chance for the present law to be repealed or amended.
 Wayne Wheeler gcncral-counsel of the Anti Saloon League in the United States, also spoke at the din- ner. He said the attitude of the Can- adian delegation going 10 the United states to confer on means for mak- ing the rum-smuggling treaty effcc- tive had had a heartening effect on the friends of law enforcement in the United States.

JUGGLED BALL IS
 NOT CAUGHT ONE
Evans Explains Theory Of Big League UmpireS in This Case
(By Billy Evans)

NDy billy ENhnSl
 What is regarded as neccs.
 sary to complete a legal catch
 of thrown ball on a play at
 first base or force play?
 Major league umpres regard the hands as tho means Of completing play on a thrown ball. That is, the ball must be securely held in the hand or hands of the fielder making the play.
 If on a play at first base, or force play at any other base, the hall arrives ahead Of the runner, he Is out, provided tho bali is securely held by the fielder prior 10 the time the runner reaches the base.
 If Q ball is thrown 10 the first haseman and 1t reaches him several feet in advance of the runner. said runner is out If the ball is securely held in advance of him.
 However, If the ball which reach cd tho fielder in advance Of the runner Is iuggled. and in the interim before the ball is securely held the runner reaches the base. he is safe.
 have received many queries in which the player juggles the ball, then has it roll up his arm, and prior 10 tho runner reaching the base, the fielder has the ball firmly under his arm or held against his body by his elbow.
 The question is. does such a hold tns of the hall complete the play and should the runner be called out if the fielder has the ball under his arm or on his elbow?
 As I stated above. major league umrires work on the theory that baseball is played with the hands relative 10 the actual catching of the ball. For that reason they would not regard such a happening as the completion of a play at first or force play al at any ether base.
 To complete A catch, the ball must be securely held in the hand or hands of the fielder making the play. is the way the umpires view 1t.
