AND THESE MEN PITCHED IT
When a major league playing
season ends, the eight clubs com
prising the league have played
1,232 games, theoretically—some
times they forget to play a game
or two at the fag end when the
games make no difference in the
standing of the clubs involved.
Thus, the two major league or
ganizations play each year 2,464
games. Each team plays 151
games, half at home and half on
the road.
And out of this number of ex
hibitions of the national sport In
the major organizations, In 1912,
but four were "no hit" contests —
only four pitchers defeated their
opponents without giving a hit.
Of the quartet one was a vet
eran of 11 years, two were re
cruits and the fourth had been
playing big time just about long
enough for the pin feathers to
begin sprouting.
Three of the "no hit" games
were played in the American

THE INCREASING
POPULARITY
OF BEER
Step into any public place where liquid re
freshments are served and what is the
most popular beverage?
bp:er.
WHY?
Because beer is in a class by itself —a popu
lar class —standing as it does as the happy
medium between total abstinence, on the
one hand, and intoxicating, distilled liquors
on the other. Beer is a temperance drink—
a drink for the masses.

PEACE AT
MAGNATES'
MEETING
(By United Press Leased Wire.)
CHICAGO, Jan. 1 6.—There
was little outlook for excitement
of any kind when the members of
the National Uaseball commission
meet here today for their annual
meeting. Not enough matters of
importance to caose a serious row
were scheduled to come up.
The adoption of a uniform 80
days' contract for use by all clubs
in organized baseball was dis
cussed. A draft of such a docu
ment has been made by August
Harriman. There will also be
hearings on the salary limits set
for clubs in certain leagues re
cently. The International league,
for one, will protest against its
limit of $6,000 a month.
Today's meeting was to have
been h«ld in Cincinnati January
6, but was postponed because of
the illness of l!an Johnson, presi-
dent of the American league and
third member of the body.
ANGELS
PLANS
(By United Press leased Wire.)
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 15. With
eight new players under contract,
Henry Berry of the Los Angeles
club of the Pacific Coast league
announced today with the adop
tion of one more left-handed
pitcher his team will be complete
for the 1913 season.
Among the new men are Out
fielder Harl Maggert, Infielder
Fahey and Pitcher Crabb, secured
from the Philadelphia Athletics
in exchange for Outfielder Pete
Daley. Maggert will fill the gap
Daley left in the outfield, and
Fahey probably will be used at
shortstop.
