A four-months-old baby was
adopted by the congregation OF a
Toledo church. The women are ta-
king turns caring for him. One OF
them has grown very fond of the
child and is making him carriage
robe like the one illustrated. She
designed it herself and claims the
entire design can be retraced with
one single continuous line. without
doubling back on any line.
Can you do it?
Last puzzle answer:
You can readily tell that this
rubber concern is a closed corpora
ton, since they sold only 200 shares
of common stock, and that to en-
ployes only. Two hundred COM
mon stock at $25 each equals $4,000;
800 bonds at $400 each equals
$12O, 900; 1900 shares of preferred
stock at $50 share equals $4,000.
making total of zoe plus 800 plus
1900 equals 1000 bonds and stock
for $4,000 plus 100000 plus $4,000
equals 100000.

After getting the ball he has to
make a fast and accurate throw to
the second baseman. He may have to
flip the ball with an underhand or
backhand motion. He may even have
to make his peg with his back almost
10 the. second basernan. Circus throw
ing, as well as stops, are often de-
msnded of shortstops.
For this reason the youngster
should learn to locate second base
from wherever he may be in his ter
ritory. To do this he has to develop
nice sense of direction. He can't
always have a clear view of the mark
at which he is compelled to throw.
Practice is the only method know to
perfect the throws when starting
double play.
The shortstop needs the pivoting
qualities Of the second bsseman. When
you take the ball on the second leg
or a double play, pivot and make a
smooth, accurate throw. Keep a foot
braced against the bag and allow the
rest of the body to relax so that 1t
will carry into the throw.
Don't let the runner bother YOU. If
you are shifty enough on your feet to
play shortstop, you will be able to
take care of yourself around the bag.
Take good grip on the ball before
trying to complete double play. Re-
member. you can't throw a ball before
you get IL. H..
Young shortstops will find 1t advis-
able to take the ball directly behind
the bag when there Is occasion for
them to tag runner. By getting the
ball in the gloved hand and putting
IT down the runner will practically
tag himself. He is coming in at such
good angle for a shortstop taking
the ball back OF tho bag that it will
seldom be necessary to dive for him
You can play closer TO second base
with a left-hand hitter at bat than
| you can. against a right handed bats
man. But study your batters closely
Never get so set in your position that
you lose a stride in going after a
ball because the batter's style has
fooled you.
Likewise, as l have pointed out, you
will have to know the speed of the
| runners. You also have to be a fine
Judge OF the speed at which a batted
know how to time your throws per-
fectly.
When these requirements are added
TO those of speed, sense OF direction
and good hands, you can see you will
have job before you to make good
! as shortstop. But il you can field
| well you will be able to pass muster
even IL you are a weak hitter. Try
to become g. so-called smart hitter.
Certainly you can learn TO bunt well.
That will be Of some help.
Keep your head up all the time.
Watch the play and coach your team
mates where you can. You will be
of help in signalling the catcher's
signs on what sort of a. ball the
pitcher will deliver to center and left
field The second baseman takes care
of this for the right fielder.
You have a hard place to fill ca
pably. If you have NATURAL ability
hard work and practice win develop
you into a highly valuable player. No
man on team can be of more help
than a good shortstop. No player can
be of greater detriment than weak
one.
