himself (s'elancer) towards the
right" to attain the bases. This
admonition to turn towards the
right is one of the mysteries of the
instruction sheet. In America, at
least, batter darting headlong
off to the right would end up in
his own dugout.
After nine "reprises" - which
the dictionary translates as re
takings" or Reproductions" but
which we may assume means
innings - the Frenchman is
free to get up and go home.
Incidentally, overseas fans have
never heard of the traditional
stretch for good luck in the sew
enth reprise. But Bruni has made
a note of it for the next edition
of the rules.
One of the worst misinterpreta-
tions Of the page baseball prim-
er occurred in southern France,
where teachers naturally assumed
that left-handed hitters were sup
posed to do everything backwards.
This meant running to third
base first and thence upstream
back to home plate. This suppo-
sition caused so many collisions of
runners speeding in opposite direc-
tions that the tutors had to ask
Paris headquarters for clarifica-
tion by long-distance telephone.
Another snafu resulted from the
strange warning printed at the
top of the instruction sheet for the
benefit OF uninitiated rooters. 1t
says:
Spectator! Whether you are
close or far away from the game.
never let the ball get out of sight
because it may come at you II it
does, keep your hands of - unless
a player asks you to retrieve it."
BAD Advice
his thoughtless counsel has
caused innumerable good-hearted
and literal burghers to be conked
on the head by batted balls. Sew
eral spectators, after being knocked
unconscious and carried from the
field, with the rules and regula-
tions still clutched in their hands,
have been known to lose all subse-
quent interest in the sport.
Despite all odds, Bruni's efforts
have produced three or four pass
able teams. The Paris Police De-
partment. although not of cham
pionship caliber, has always been
one of the most colorful and crafty
aggregations. They specialize in the

For many years both the auto
bus and subway systems of Paris
also had their own baseball teams.
Recently. when underground and
surface transportation were merged
into one company. cynics inter-

U. 5. Homicide Rate
Climbs Nearly a Third
In Posi-War5 Stress
BY Thomos R. Henry

The Nations homicide rate is 70.
Ing up. It was almost a third highe,
for the first six months of l94t
than for 1945.
Last year only four persons ouI
OF each 100000 OF the population
were murdered More than five out
Of each 100000 will die violent
deaths at the hands OF others this
year, If the rate up to now is main
tanned. This Is especially striking
since two years ago was the lowest
ever known in this country.
Probably several factors are in
volved, say statisticians of the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Co. who
are concerned over the increasing
murders, which Is running parallel
with increasing suicides OF policy
holders. For one reason, the figures
for 1914 and a large part Of 1945
did not take into account the mur-
derous tendencies Of several million
men who were overseas and fell in
the age group in which murders and
murdered are most common.
Reports for the company's policy
holders in the Army and the Navy,
however, indicate that their be-
havior was much different from that
Of the civilian population. Murder
was at low ebb in the services in
1914 and only increased a little
in 1945.
One obvious factor, it is pointed
out in the report, is the reaction of
these men suddenly released from
discipline with less rigid ideas on
the morality of taking human life,
due to their training. Thousands
brought back enemy pistols from
overseas and the majority of these
are unregistered. In many cases
the men have been bitterly disap-
pointed by the opportunities offered
by the country to which they have
returned.
A notable factor, it is believed, is
decreased employment. Whole fam
lilies held jobs in war plants or with
the Government. Thus they were
able to live on a much higher scale
than they had known before, de-
spite increasing prices. Now wives
and daughters shave lost their jobs.
Family budgets have fallen while
prices have continued to 60 UP. The
result has been constant family
pickering which a few drinks are
likely to turn into murder.
There is no way of knowing.
the report concludes, whether the
recent increase in homicide is only
temporary or whether it will con-
tinue for some time. 1t is an i'm
portant social problem. Even in
1874, when the mortality from this
cause dropped to the lowest point
on record, it still was responsible
for more than $500 deaths in the
general population Of the United
States" '

COUNTRY LIFE. >. for city folk

Ever had longing for the country
life yearned for the tranquility
Of peaceful home apart from
everyone else . your own piece
Of this earth, out where the air is
fresh and the freedom of living is
linitless?
Springbrook Forest was conceived,
planned and became a reality be-
cause its developer had q single
objective in mind - the creation of
small woodland estates in a loca-
ton convenient and accessible, with
an alluring natural beauty, in an
environment that achieves the ideal
for those who would, in a modest
way, be OF the landed gentry.
The beautiful wooded acres that
comprise Springbrook Forest offer
the perfect setting for home :,
a spot where the neighbors with
kindred interests might build mod
est estates in the rustic background
where sylvan beauty would
become part of country atmos-
phere, with horses and dogs, sum-
mer and winter sports, and all the
advantages OF country life.
For Springbrook Forest is in the
heart of Maryland's horse country.
The land nearby is dotted with the
ancestral homes of friendly de-
scendants of families who titled the
soil in Colonial days.
