TWO DIFFERENT RULINGS
Explain why batter is out
if a fielder juggles ball but
finally retains possession of it
and q baserunner is not out on
q touch play in which the ball
is juggled?
Up until the fall of 1919. when the
rules were given general revision,
the ruling on the two plays, the
juggling Of a fly ball, and the Jug
Cling Of the ball after touch play,
Il finally held, was the same.
At that time the experts revising
the playing code decided that on a
touch play the ball must be securely
held, not juggled, to complete the
out.
Thus, if runner sliding into sec
ond is touched with the ball while
still three feet from the base, only
to have the fielder juggle the ball
after the touch, the runner is not
out if he can reach the base while
the ball is still in the air.
It matters not if the fielder finally
retains possession of the ball on a
touch play. The moment he juggles
the ball after the touch, it renders
the same void. In order to retire the
runner it is necessary that he again
secure q firm hold on the ball and
once more touch the runner before he
reaches his objective.
II q runner after being touched,
and the ball is juggled, the play is
rendered void and he can be declared
safe by reaching the base before the
fielder again touches him with the
ball.
While it is apparent the rules dis
criminats between two plays, that on
the surfaces seem much the same, the
juegling Of Z ball that is finally re-
tained before touching the ground.
and the juggling Of the ball after
touching . runner, there is perhaps
some merit to the attitude taken on
: touch play. making it necessary to
firmly hold the ball to complete the
out.

Cakes Golf Course
Gives Drivers Work

Cakes. N. D.. June. 13.-(AP)-
Local golfers get plenty Of chance
to use their wooden clubs at the
Oakcs golf club. The nine-hole course
here is unusually long. Several
holes with natural hazards offer
difficulty to the enthusiast that gets
off to poor start.
Two hills within $50 yards of the
tee at the fourth hole, together with
a fence running along the entire left
edge Of the fairway, offer plenty of
trouble to the golfer that is not
proficient with his driver.
The club, which was organized in
1925, has IS members. Many of
them are planning to participate in
the South Eastern District golf
tournament, July %.

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, March 9 (P-In big
profit taking wave all grain underwent
p setback today after a general advance
in which May delivery corn touched 81
a bushel. Upturns scored by corn were
ascribed to the fact that official eSti-
mates of farm reserve stocks of corn
were much below what the trade had
looked for being 114,000,000 bushels
smaller than q year ago. Closing quo
tationS on corn were nervous at Is %
&c net decline with wheat rs @2c
down, oats &@7s@1c off and provi-
sions unchanged to a rise of SC.
Corn led the advance today and
wheat the reaction. Corn trading WIS
on heavy scale throughout, whereas
transactions III wheat were of greatly
increased volume as the day neared an
end. Late weakness of wheat was a
distinct bearish factor as to corn with
rains in the eastern part of the winter
wheat belt having considerable influ-
ence on values. Much letting go of
future delivery holdings resulted from
reported improvement of wheat crop
conditions because of widespread mois-
ture relief.
Downward swings both of corn prices
and of wheat dislodged numerous
sI>.nding orders to stop losses at var
ious set limits. With fresh buying sup
port lacking prices broke rapidly. In
the corn market relatively good de-
mand was in evidence at times after
quotations had dipped to below yester-
days finish Meanwhile country Of
ferings of corn were meagre, and the
weather was unfavorable for corn
movement. On the other hand Kan
sas City at the close was offering on
a working basis No. 2 hard winter
wheat to come to Chicago.
Considerable selling out of oats took
place because the Official report on
farm reserves of oats was somewhat
above the average estimate by private
experts.

from the action of the corn market
and of cotton seed oil.
