White Sox Trying
New Signal System;
Runner Calls Play
BY the Assoeiafed Press

SARASOTA, Fla, Mar. IL
Manager Paul Richards of the
White Sox is introducing a new
system of base-running signals.
In the past, standard prac-
tice has called for the manager
to give the sign to the coach
at third or first base, who flashes
it to the batsman, who in turn
lets the base-runner in on the
secret.
Richards system has the base
runner. the front man gives the
sign.
:"As far as I know this has
never been tried before" Rich
ards said. EFT tends to make
= the players on bases learn to
stay alive and alert. We have
too many now who get into con-
versations when they are on
base either with the umpires or
one of their buddies who hap
pens to be playing on the other
club.
tits possible that a lot Of the
opposing players and certainly
some Of the opposing managers
know this and deliberately get
the conversations started so our
base-runners will not have their
heads up."

The general impression is that
Ralph had a bad year." Maybe
SO, but many a club would like
more bad" years from a guy
who belted IS home runs, drove
in 116 runs, hit a creditable .279
and had a fielding average of
.973.
Not written in the records are
the facts that Kiner in 1858
played under the handicap of
a groin injury which would have
kept many players on the bench,
and he got off to a poor and late
start because of a peculiar row
initiated by Branch Hickey, then
his boss.
The Hickey mess is history
and Kiner is frankly happy to
be with Mr.. P. K. Wrigley's
Chicago club.
Pittsburgh was a fine base

there. But you can't beat Chi

that, you're dead. You can't

MESA, Ariz.. Mar. 11.-Ralph
Kiner of the Cubs gives every
indication of a young man bent
on wondrous things this season.
He hopes to regain the home
run championship of the Ma
tional League. and he should
re-establish his claim as an all
around baseball player.
Just yesterday the Cali
fornian's bat sank the Giants
for their fourth straight defeat,
1877. with a performance that
started with a two-run homer
his first time at bat and grand
slam edition later in the game.
In five exhibitions, Kiner Is
hitting we'll over 500. He has
three home runs and has driven
in 10 runs. This Is for a gentle
man who usually gets a slow
start in spring training.
Reports in Better Shape.
Kiner signaled events to come
when he reported to camp
weighing a trim 100 pounds. This
was Z less than when he finished
the long grind last year and 10
or Is pounds under the figure

his former employers, the

Population Trend

Seventy-five percent of Ameri-
can Jews are native-born, Abra-
ham Quicker reported at the re-
cent convention of the Yiddish
Scientific Institute. If you add to
this the fact that many Jewish
immigrants came to this country
at an early age, some as chill
dren, there emerges a picture of
a Jewry that before long will be
a pure product of America. It
would be good guess, however,
that there are still about one
million foreign-born Jews in the
United States.
Apropos to the changing char
acter Of the Jewish population in
America, it might be well to note
that, according to the Census of
1910, the total number in the
American population who indi-
Gated that Yiddish was their
mother tongue was 1881, 900. OF
these, 924,440 were foreign born,
773, $50 Of foreign or mixed pa
rent-age, and 5000 of native
parentage. This total indicates
that about 37% of the American
Jews in 1910 were familiar with
the Yiddish language.
My good friend and first teach
er DR.. Mordecai Soltes, to whom
I am indebted for this informa-
ton, estimates that the total cir
culation of the Yiddish papers in
1852 was about $4,000 or less
than half the YiddiSh press cir
culation of 1916. This drop shows
not the willing submission of a
clan that is justly the successor
to the heritage of the millions
who persisted, but mainly the in
exorable effect of living in a
milieu whose cultural streams are
overcoming.

The bill does not affect capital
punishment for crimes committed
