SAN FRANCISCO. = What car women do about baseball?
 Better still, what can baseball dC about women?
 It is no secret that all is not com pletely chummy between the femmes of the country and the thousands oi teams devoted to the national game There are some rabid woman fans and there are clubs that pack en m on 'ladies' day" but on the whole baseball remains mems affair.
 There are two prominent figures in the game who have gotten the:I heads together on the woman's an gle.
 One is Aimee Cnapman o1 suburb an Orinda, Calf. She is the wife of Charles E. Chapman, college professor and historian-and also an ace scout for the Cincinnati Reds and author of an authoritative book on baseball.
 The other is Walter Mails, former Cleveland pitcher, a hero of the 1920 World Series and now an ex- ecutive of the San Francisco Coast league club.
 Says Mrs. Chapman:
 "If women want to enjoy base ball, one thing they should do is to learn to score It helps make the play vivid, gets them interested in the performance of individuals.
 "Women's minds get to wandering at a game and they start talking of every subject but baseball. It would be well if they could understand the finer points of play. doubt whether {. woman knows when a curve is pitched, or why certain plays are made.'
 More husbands should explain the game to their wives, says Mrs E. E. Reardon, considered the most consistent feminine fan in the Coast league. Now they just say, Oh, be stilp."
 Frcm the management stand point, Mrs. Chapman believes clubs could attract women by more atten- tion to cleanliness, smartly mi- formed help and loudspeaker chat ter on personalities both on the team and in the stands. Drinking of beer from bottles by the men surround ing them offends many women, she says, ard advocates cup service.
 Walter Mails, who has built up a huge kid" following for the San Francisco Seals, is trying to bring in girls as well as boys. Invitations to whole schools is one of his meth ods, talks to women's clubs is an- other.
 There isn't a cleaner game that can be presented to the country's women than modern baseball" he says. When I broke in anything went. Fellows would drink on the bench, swear in easy hearing of the stands, and even go right into the stands after offending fans. After the game the team would be found at the nearest bar.
 To-day there's a more gentle manly type of fellow playing. They don't hang around joints. The ma- jority are married and in the win- ter they work in legitimate busi- neSSeS.
