ILL \ CARRIGAN, a dangerous batter. always at his best in a pinch, broke up a batting rally qulck'er than I have ever seen a player turn such a trick.

Usually PMiw sensational fielding play or effective pinch pitching spoils a batting rally. Seldom doe* the bat ter, the pinch hitter, come to the as slstaneo of the team in the field. I have umpired any number of games in which a pinch hitter would break up a rally on one pitched ball. Usually in such cases two were out and the batsman would be retired on ! the first ball pitched by the relief hurl- ' er. I have several times sen double ! plays made on the first hall delivered j by a relief pitcher, retiring the side. To Rill Oarrlgan, In the role of pinch batsman, goes the r\ed!t of breaking i up a promising rally on one hard-hit ball. Boston was playing In New York. The Boston team was trailing by several runs and didn't seem to have ; much of a chance when the first half !of the ninth opened. Then things began to happen. The first three men up reached first in safety, filling the bases with no one out. Things began to brighten up for Boston. There seemed to be a chance to win a game that apparently wu hopelessly lost. It was the turn to hat. Few pitchers are good hitters. Bill Carrigan was selected to act as pinch hitter and break up the old ball game. That is Just what Carrigan did. but with reverse English. Instead of helping Boston, Bill played right Into the hands of New York. How did Bill dd art oh a thing? i Listen. Evidently long before he reached the I plate Carrigpn had decided to hit the first ball pitched if it was over. The j ball was a beauty-—right |over the heart of the plate. Carrigan took a healthy cut at the ball as the shortstop made a dash for second to drive the runner back. The pitcher, Instead of delaying his delivery so the shortstop could get back

to his position, pitched the ball at what seemed a most Inopportune time. If Carrigan had been able to hit through the spot vacated, all would have been lovely. Instead, he drove a liner a few feet to the shortstop’s side of second base. Had the shortstop been playing properly it would have been a clean hit.. Instead, he ran directly Into the path of the ball, made an easy catoh, stepping on second retired the original occupant of that hase, and then threw to first, completing a triple play. In all my experience it is the only time [ ever saw a pinch batter hit into a triple play on the first ball pitched.

THREE COLLEGE NET SCRAPSMIGHT Purdue Tangles With Unde- * -seated Wisconsin, Three basket-ball struggles are on the State college schedule foojtonight. Pufldue and Wisconsin tangle at Lafayette in a Western Conference gumo, Wabash and Earlham renew hostilities at Crawfordsvllle, and Franklin and Rose l J oly meet at Franklin High School gym. The Boilermakers have a task on their hands in the Wisconsin contest. The Badgers are undefeated. In the Big Ten race and are sailing along at a fast clip. Purdue will, in all probability, line up with Eversman and Holwerda, forwards; Gutlion, center, and Robbins and Wellman, guards. Wisconsin will start \rifh Gage and Elsom, forwards: Gibson, center, and Tebell and Williams, guards. ■ The Earlham-Wabash fray has been moved up a day and will be played tonight instead of Wednesday, as was originally scheduled. The Scarlet has a defeat at tFie hamia of the Quakers to avenge and expect to turn the tables tonight. Chadwick, the long Wabash center, is back and strengthens the team considerably. Adam and Thompson, a freshman, probably will be at the forwards, with the old reliable Grater and Goldsberry at guards. The Franklin and Rose Poly scrap should not cause the Baptists a great deal of tronhle. With a hard tilt on the card for Thursday with Wabash, It Is thought Wagner will save his team as much as possible.

1924 TICKETS FOR OLYMPIC • GAMES CINCHED New Crop of Mhletes Will Bo Seen In Action Against Foreign Field, By HENRY L. FARRELL United Presa Staff Correavondent 1 NEW YORK, Feb. 6.—With the indoor season half over, it has become apparent that many of the tickets for the Olympic Jaunt to Paris in 1924 have been cinched. When the United States team went to Antwerp in 1920 there were only six athletes in the bunch who had previous experience In the Olympic games. They were Dan Ahern, Pat McDonald, Ted Merdltji, Fred Murray, Pat Ryan and Matt McGrath. The long intermission of the game on account of the war was responsible for a practically new team and'' perhaps It should not be considered unusual or a slap at the new generation that Uncle Sam’s next team will be composed almost entirely of veterans. In three years only a handful of new athletes have boen developed. The most outstanding of the athletes who were not on the 1920 team but who no doubt will go to Paris are Alfred Leconey and Bob McAllister, sprinters; Leroy Brown, Dartmouth high Jumper; Allen Hellfrich, middle distance runner, and Gourdin, the world's champion broad jumper.
