THIS 1912 season has already
opened a new war between UNI
pires, managers and ball players
especially in the National league.
You can gamble that the umpires
are right 95 per cent of the time.

a patchwork design if you wish,
or make it with a patterned ma

Trial Treatment

Sufferer wish I had some
drops to cure this toothache.
Friend-It's all a matter of the
mind, not medicine. Yesterday l
was feeling terrible. But when l
went home my wife put her arms
around me and kissed me, and
consoled me, so that soon felt
better.
Sufferer-You don't say. Is your
wife at home now?

career we nave
watched the making of over 5000, 900
feet of sports pictures, to discover
low much the right and wrong an
giles meant. This goes for ball
game, a horse race, and stance
in golf. 1t goes for any game.
If the camera is set at the wrong
angle, only by few feet, the pic
ture will tell an untrue story. The
same is true Of the human eye. Or
the inhuman eye.
At a race track, If you are not
dead set on the finish line you can
easily disagree by half length or
even length with the testimony Of
the camera which is aimed directly
at the wire. Every horseman knows
that.
Same In Baseball
Trained umpires are supposed to
be in the correct spots for a correct
decision. They can make mistakes,
being only human.
Managers and ball players on the
bench are not in the right spot to
call any decision correctly. If the
bench were the right place, then
umpires would be sitting on the
bench and not standing around on
the ball field.
Using two examples, Messrs. Du-
rocher and Frisch know this. They

pirical explosions are used largely
in behalf of the old alibi. They are
employed to cover up mistakes or de-
feats in connection with critical
crowds.
There is belief also that crowds
like scrappy baseball. Crowds do.
But crowds would rather see the
battle between two teams-the speed
and brains of a Ty Cobb, the brains
and power of Babe Ruth or Lou
Gehrig or a Ted Williams thrown
against the other team, not against
the umpires.
A ball player who bats 1888 is
above the average. Yet, that means
he is flop two-thirds of the time.
Umpires make mistakes, but not
as many mistakes as managers and
ball players make-if you happen to
look at the daily box scores.
The greatest pitcher that ever
lived-Walter Johnson, never had
an argument with an umpire. He
was concentrating on the main job
pitching-not on some umpire's de-
cision. Among few other pretty
fair country pitchers in this respect
might include Christy Mathewson,
Cy Young, Grover Cleveland Alex
ander, Ed Walsh, MOrdecai Brown.
I've never seen great pitcher
who was an umpire fighter. No
one is great enough to split his con-
centration-to look out first for the
