WHAT THE YOUNG BALL
PLAYER WANTS TO KNOW

/ comes to mind Is that he threw too
much in the morning
In the morning his arm felt good and
In addition to throwing out some boys
who were playing against his team, and
throwing as he would in practice, the
chances are that he threw just little
harder every now and then to burn
some fellows hands Also, when Billy
Brown said he could throw farther that
morning. his playmate Immediately &C
cepted the challenge and both Of them
began to peg at mark or to some boy
who was anchored somewhere in the
outfield
1t was great sport while it lasted.
especially If one boy happened to win
by foot. but he strained bis arm when
he did it. He most likely had played
all tho base ball that he should have
played before he began the throwing
contest.
After he was through he went home
and had something to eat and he could
hardly wait to get away from the table
to get outdoors again and start throw
| ing. His food had no time to digest and
| in few minutes he felt SO loggy that
he wished he could take a nap. or lie
down under tree, and his arm had
about as much steam to it as an cx-
| ploded boiler. What he did is what
nearly every boy is likely to do who
plays base ball all day long and throws
| his arm out in the morning.
| To bunt the ball. take hold OF the
bat above the end of the handle and
| when the ball comes up to you. do not
| try to swing on it. and hit it. but try
| to tap 1t. Reach out and tap it down
| II will be hard work to learn TO do ii
well, but when you can bunt 1t is one
! of the niftiest things to do with a
base ball bat And you will be better
able to play against any kind of pitching
because there are many pitchers who
do not like to have the ball hunted
against them. and who lose their grip
| when they see batter stick his bat out
and take little chop or tap at the ball
| Don't hold the bat with tight grip
when you do this. Learn to hold II
loosely and you will bunt even more
effectively than II you attempt to make
motion as II you were about to hi
| for home run.
