And when we say play we
mean play. Neil belongs to that
class known as the expert utility
man of his club. He has no regu-
lar position but fills them all
when called upon and fills them
in competent manner.
In fact Neil is in every game
West Washington plays. He can't
be left out because of his worth.
Neil is q strapping youngster, "a
years old, full Of the ready to do
and ready to die spirit.
OF course he'd rather settle
down to one position on his team
and perfect his playing in that
position. But conditions and
situations have prevented him
from doing that with the West
washington club, thus his many
changes from this position to
that.
The West Washington man.
agement has called upon him
for these assignments because
Of his willingness and ability.
In other words, Neil has shown
them how he can play any
position, therefore the reason
he is picked when occasions
arise.
Many utility players confinc
their efforts to the infield and
outfield alone. Linger does more
than that. He not only can play
capable game in either the in
field or outfield, but he can
pitchl He does not CATCH how
ever.
Linger has pitched two games
for West washington this sea-
son. His most recent effort from
the mound was in the nature OF
a four-hit performance against
Grace Episcopal, the team which
dropped out off the league soon
after. It was this loss OF Graces s,
incidentally, that knocked that
team completely out Of the sec
ond half race.
The other pitching turn was
against Vermont Avenue during
the first half series. Neil did
some nifty work in this encounter
also though he was hit q little
harder than in the four-hit affair
against Grace.

There are some Of you overlook

ple it seems shame to have your
selections tossed out just because
you were careless.
Here are couple Of things to
rememberl
Babe Ruth positively will
not select himself for q place
ON the team! Don't put him
on yours, for you'll be wrong:
! Don't forget that your selec-
tions must be accompanied by a
short letter Of $50 words explain
ing your selections.
Don't forget that you must use
but one side Of the paper in max
ing your reply.
And most important Of all. Be
sure and sign your name and ad-.
dress legibly. IF you are going to
win a prize you'll have to let The
judges know who you are!
Maybe you'd like a little infor'
nation on the first fifty selec-
tions that have come in. Well, sir,
in these early returns there's a
merry little war going on between
Mel OFT, Chuck Klein and Babe
Herman for a place in the out

incidentally, is getting into the

neck and neck with Pie Traynor

But don't let those things
influence you! After all your
Judgment is as good as any
ones, as nobody knows who
Babe will pick at any given
position.
Today is being printed list OF
some 15O or 200 players in the zig
leagues. Babes ten men will be
picked from this list. Look it over.
Study it carefully. Don't be
afraid to dig up the averages and
the reports and records for the

mighty helpful in trying to earn

from the contact with the ball
are the sure indication that the
ball was gotten away quickly.

out this effect, which commonly
is called punch" Now when the
learning player thinks Of the
punch" factor, he at the same
instant associates its attainment
with an effort to make the club
head hit hard-and thereby
misses it completely.
This punch" is a factor that
associates wholly with the club
head, and its natural speed. To
associate 1t with your own force
or power almost certainly means
you will press. Pressing, in the
final analysis, means adding any
Of your own power beyond a
smooth, rhythmic exertion neces-
sary to swing the club.
The art Of letting the club
head speed rapidly into the
ball is dependent upon wrist
action.
IF you win take one Of your
clubs and, withdrawing it. from
the ball. will get your wrists into
a cooked" position at the top Of
the back swing, you can readily
demonstrate for yourself the
wriSt-control action that . more
than any other one thing yields
speed to the moving clubhead.
With your wrists thus cooked"

as long as you can.

YACHTS 7 A K {
LONG COURSE

MATTAPOTSET, Mass, Aug. 6.
Vineyard Haven, on the island
of Martha's Vineyard, is the
destination of four Americas Cup
yachts today. The course OF 371a
miles is q sporty one and should
provide shippers and navigators
Of these giant sloops with the
toughest break they have had
since the New York Yacht Clubs
annual cruise began.
The entire sailing fleet will
race to Vineyard Haven but only
the four Americas Cup candi-
dates, Weetamoe, Enterprise, Yam.
kee and Whirlwind, will take the
long course.
The others, including even
the old yachts, Vanitie. and
ResOlute, will go through
WoOdhOIe, which shOrtens the
course 231x miles. The race
cOmmitte decided upon this
IN order to give the new cup
yachts plenty Of sea room
for what is expected to be q
Slashing. fOur-cOrnered battle.
The results of two races already
held among the four cup yachts
in connection with the cruise have
been surprising enough. The
boats have managed to upset the
dope of the experts.
Harold s. Vanderbilt's Enter
prise, with her towering steel
mast, has behaved most consist
emily of the lot thus far.
In yesterdays triangular race,
which she won in rather brilliant
fashion, she had two reaches, a
broad one and a close one, and in
each she looked better than she
has at any time since she was
launched in the HerreshOff Yards
at Bristol.
Yesterday the Vanderbilt ship
made WeetamOe look exceedingly
bad and the others even worse.
Over Q II mile triangle she led
her chief rival by . trifle more
than two minutes and q half.
It was q somewhat mortifying
defeat for George Nichols. Weeta-
,mos'S famous skippsE.

Linger played left field the
day he hit the home run. 1t was
in keeping with the idea that an
outfielder is supposed to be
heavy hitter. Linger's hits have
fingered with the fans also in
other games where he has es-
pecially had good days while
playing short-Stop and first base.
The Georgetown Church League
has enjoyed an unusully success
full season this year. In fact it
is enjoying it right now. When
the end is actually history, it's
a sure contention that the ex-
ploits of Neil Linger will be a
lingering memory on the minds
OF those many who have followed
the deStinies of the league
throughout the year.
