Manager of the Detroit Base BAN eiupt
-REAK plays of the diamond are
colorful. and often leave a last
ing impression. A week seldom
i passes that does not reveal a
unique incident In the big
leagues. Some are talked about for
quarter of a century. 1t will be 20
years next Fall that Fred Merkle pulled
his famous blunder OF failing to touch
second, and 1t Is still fresh In the
memory of old timers.
Probably no major Lacquer can gaze
back over his career and claim more
unorthodox play than that grand old
guardian Of first base. Jake Beckley
once pulled off. The majority OF big
leaguers play ball by the book, but
now and then a few hitch the horse
behind the wagon.
Has Terrible Arm.
,Beckley. who played with the
Cardinals rs years ago. was In that
class Critics never attempted to class
him with Hal Chase. for he was far
from being a maSter-man at first base.
However, Beckley was great batter.
His original pep-cry was Chick
aZoo!ai" and 1t rang out to pitchers
as a warning he was on a batting
spree
Beckley's glaring fault was fright
full throwing arm. He had no more
idea where the ball was going than
the Prince of Wales has Of staying on
horse He was known rs the worlds
worst thrower. Hence the opposition
always ran wild" when Beckley had
the ball In his hands
One day when st. Louis was playing
Pittsburgh Tommy Leach. third base
man Of the Pirates. came TO bat with
the bases empty. Concentrating on
Beckley's weakness. Leach laid down
bunt. which required Jake 10 field
the ball. Jack Taylor. st. Louis
pitcher, hurried 70 cover the bag on
the play. Beckley scooped up the ball
and measured Oft an underhanded
throw which scared a yard over
Taylor's head
Following this. Leach was flying to-
ward second base. Beckley, to redeem
his error, dashed past Taylor and re-
covered the ball so feet from the foul
line. Leach was nearing third base.
and 1t was apparent he was intent upon
going home because OF Beckley's
Wretched throwing.
Beckley surmised Leach's intention,
and brought TO light a great bit Of re-
sourcefulness. Instead OF taking a
chance In throwing. Jake decided on an
entirely different plan to head off
Leach.
Why not sprint to the plate?"

There is no real reason for calling the

pretty enough name, but, after all, only
a concession to the old idea that an
actress must pretend to be some inn
ec,nary personage. If the name OF the
actress had happened to be Rosalle,

satisfactory a title for this musical
