mage Thursday, and VIII taper of

ters, and Bradford, Bullet, Brown
and Devices, guards.
Coach Peterman. in his first year
at the north side school, is optir1is-
tic over the teams chances.
No team seems outstanding in
the regional, but Danville probably
will be as hard to beat as any Of
them" Peterman said Thursday
Records mean nothing in tourney
play. The team with good spirit
and the will - win is the success
full one. Certainly if this is so, my
boys should get some place. I never
have coached a team that possessed
such an indonitable spirit and gave
50 much fight"
Approximately 1000 Shortridge
fans are expected to accompany the
Blue Devils to Anderson. A special
train has been arranged, leaving
Union station at 1870 and arriving
in Anderson at 1920. The return

New Sacrifice Fly Rule Is
Unpopular, Babe Ruth Says

a runner scores from third, but
they voted him down. I agree with
the other players that this was a
mistake.
I figure the change will knock
at least twenty or twenty-five
points off the batting averages OF
the long hitters. BY long hitters
I mean Gehrig, Simmons, Foxx
Goslin, Alexander, Morgan and
sluggerS of that type in our
league. Take fellows such as Babe
Herman, Chuck Klein, Wally Ber-
ger, Lefty O'Doul, Hack Wilson
Harry Heilmann and a few more
in the National. For years they
were not charged with a time at
bat if a long fly let runner adj
vance from any base. Now the time
at bat will be charged.
Every player in the major leagues
will suffer some, but Of course the
long hitters will suffer most.
doubt that we will see another 400
hitter for years. Bill Terry made
the grade last year but he woulc
have been some distance under the
mark if the rule now in force hat

CT. PETERSBURG, Fla, March
- 12.-That new rule about the
sacrifice fly has been received BY
the ball players just as the writer's
predicted last winter at the time
the change was made. They are
all squawking against it. The fell
low who hits around 800 or .375
believes it ends his dream Of some
day being a 400 hitter. The 800
sticker sees himself feeling back
and losing his chief argument for
better salary.
The rule came up for discussion
in our clubhouse the first day the
squad was all together, and there
wasn't word for it. Usually some
body can be found to take one side
Of a question, but this was time
when everybody had the same view
Even the pitchers had no argument
in favor Of it. It does not keep
down the scoring or change the
earned runs, so they have no rea-
son to argue in favor Of it.
I think it was a mistake to deny
q hitter a sacrifice fly if he hits q
ball long enough to score a runner
from third. I agree with the rule
makers in cutting out the sacrifice
fly when q runner merely goes from
first to second, or from second to
third. But there are certain play
ers who can hit high and far, and
sacrifice flies from their bats were
not accidents. The ball was hit in
a certain way, the aim being tc
get under it. The player would
often swing different than usual
with a runner on third.

7 player who sat in at the rule
