By JOE TAYLOR. .TCan you knock down hard line "smashes field bunts make long and Ewlft underhand throws and keep cool xndr eady for the unexpected? "ZTlt so, you probably will make a good ..itaird baseman with practice and Stick-te-it-ive-neks. I? Probably more hard drives are hit t the third sacker than to any other "-in fielder. The best third baseman only .Succeeds in knocking down smash es sometimes, and so quick recoveries are necessary.- Get someone to hit hard : grounders and line drives to you and learn to recover the ball quickly if ..i'ou fumble. ...... Practice fielding bunts; scooping them up with one hand and throwing to first underhanded. Never make a -play with one hand when it is pos sible to use two, but in fielding these tantalizing twisters it is ssometimes vjnecessary to do it with the bare hand. -fa..- v H BiHlggilSBlSSBiBHiaSSS ees THE PENNANT RACE g SOUTHERN ' - W.

PITCHER -AHD CATCHER m HANDLING EUHTO Short flies that go Just over the bag are nearly always good for two or three sacks, and the guardian of the far corner should practlve run ning back and catching these hits over his Shoulder. Avoid collisions with your catcher and pitcher in fielding bunts by having a perfect .understanding as to terri tory in fielding the ball. Study the batters. Get to know where they are likely to hit" and. whether they are in the habit of try ing to beat out bunts.

RUTH'S SLUGGING RECALLS FEATS OF OLD TIME PLAYERS Babe Ruth's six homers in two games at Baltimore this spring set a new baseball record and set old-timers and fans to talking, as well as historians to digging in the archives for data on consecutive four-baggers. Lafayette Napoleon Cross, who cao- tained the Athletics when thev won their first two flags, smote the same number of homers as Babe did in an exhibition game in the same state 24 years ago. , He was then with the Phillies, who had been training" in the Carolinas. On their way north, the Ouakora who were managed by Arthur Irwin, Benny Kauffs discoverer, stopped in Haggerstown to play an exhibition game with the Hagerstown team. When the fracas was over, it was discovered that the Quakers hart punched out 46 drives, good for double tms number of bases, and had earned 27 runs. - More than half of the Phil tallv. 14 to be exact, were the result of four furlong pokes. Cross had four homers, two double sand two singles. NOTICE. To th travlin nuhliK- ' TK r-... ville Ferry is in good shape now; roads and landine-n fn arivwi -rrl anytime of Uenight.
