The way to learn to bat is by batting. "Keep at it. But youngsters are apt to ,iave certain faults which no amount of f practice will eradicate unless they ars pointed out to them. The chief mistake of most young tiatters is a tendency to "pull" away .from the plate. The reason for this is- 'a fear of being hit by the ball. Ia-get rid of this disastrous habit, take a firm stand at the plate, legs rather wide apart and then get some jne to pitch to you. Make up your tnlid not to "give" an inch and you tvill find yourself becoming more con fident as your practicing goes on. Other boys are inclined to be too confident and this results in- care lessness and underestimating the op posing pitcher. In selecting a bat pick out one you can swing freely. Grip the bat firm ly and about six inches from the end. Take a short snappy swing in pref erence to a long clumsy one. Batter3 who can place a ball with reasonable accuracy are preferred by managers to those who try to murder every pitch. Keep your eye on the ball every second, remember a base on balls is as good as a hit in some cases. And don't forget the best advice to would be "Ty Cobbs" is to practice, practice and then 'practice some more. Note to the Captain See that every man on your team reads Taylor's "How to Bat." , VAN METRE MADE MANAGER MAXENT PARK FOR CITY Charles E.
