unique activity of that industry in
maintaining Il staff of field repre-
/ sentatives to visit schools every
where around the country, giving
! collective classes instructions in
bicycling is done in the interest OF
those who use its products. it is
said. Teaching children by actual
demonstration not only how to get
the most value as hcalthful cxer-
/ else out of them, but also the ncces-
: sity of being careful while. riding,
/ has been an important function of
the bicvclc industry for years, in
spite Of the fact that there are com
parativcly fewer accidents to chill
dfcn who 90 to or from school on
bicvclcs than among those who
walk.
Municipal and state authorities,
particularly school and police offic-
ials, heartily endorse this safety
educational effort as the finest
and most practical safety demon
stration ever witnessed. Many
school officials report that consid-
cradle improvement has been motto
ed in the riding department of the
cyclists under their charge.
AS a result of this intensive mis-
sionary work, it is said that bicycle
accidents have been reduced to
point where individual state stats
ties show them to be the lowest in
percentage of all vehicular acci-
dents.

Just what will happen to a pitcher

Commissioner Lands has said that
only the pitcher has anything to say
about whether resin shall be used,
that the little bags are part of base
ball under the rules. Moreover the
commissioner contends that permis-
sion to use resin as specified in the
rules is given to a moundman when
he signs contract with his club. 1t
Is part of the pitching paraphernalia.
There must be a test case in the
league, before long. perhaps not. Base
ball followers will be interested to
know what happens to player II the
manager objects to the use of the
powder, or what happens to the
manager if he permits its use.
