SCOTT, YANKEE VETERAN, GIVES POINTERS ON SHORTSTOP JOB

By EVERETT SCOTT “Iron Man’’ of Shortstops E EARNING to always play the ball on the big bound is the first requisite of a successful shortstop. Playing "heads up’’ baseball at all times would be my second bit of advice to any shortstop who aspires to make the big league. By “heads up” baseball I mean to make a study of your batters, be alive to every situation, figure out what you are going to do with the ball when you get it, so

K. G Blues Follow Brewers Here — City Net Finals Carded for Sunday

/C 4 WTOWN TEAM COMING FOR FOUR-GAME SERIES Wilbur Good's Club Always Givet 'ndians Trouble —Milwaukee Final on at Washington Park Today, By EDDIE ASH Following the series wind-up with the Milwaukee Brewers this afternoon, the Indians next will “entertain” the Kansas City Blues at Washington Park. The Kawtown tossers will be here for four games, starting Sunday. The 1923 pennant winners are in fifth place and they have hopes of damaging the Tribe’s hold on third position. The Blues usually are tough for the Indians.

Bill Burwell was slated to perform , in the box for the Tribesmen in the | final with Milwaukee this afternoon. He lost a hard-fought battle to the Millers his last time out. The home boys didn't look good ■ against the Brewers Friday and the \ visitors romped in with the honors. ' 11 to 3. Niles, Smith and Eller toiled , on the Tribe mound and the first ■ two named were walloped hard. Walberg, a southpaw, pitched for Milwaukee and he had most of the With A. A. Leaders if n W. L. Pet.

Nine strike-outs were chalked up by the former member of Connie Mack’s Athletics. Walter Rehg banged out three hits for the Indians and Jonees got two. Err.ie Krueger clouted a home run with one mate aboard, and that was the big feature from the standpoint of the home fans. The Brewers crowned the ball for fourteen hits. Their big innings were the fifth and sixth, when four: runs were scored in each stanza. C'nristenbury was banished from the Friday game in the seventh for wrangling with Umpire Freeman. The plate umpire had a bad day and he probably gave three silent cheers when the contest ended. The Indians lost ground by the Friday defeat and passed up an opportunity to go into second place. The Saints fell again at Columbus, but Louisville won in extra innings. The Colonels are playing championship ball and deserve to be in the lead at present. Attendance is holding up well at Washington Park. Friday was “ladies’ day” and the feminine fans swelled the crowd to about 1.600. a very good showing on a hot afternoon. Sam Adelson, prominent Plant City Fla., business man, was to be presented with a watch at today's game ut the Tribe park. Adelson did much of the work in connection with the Indians’ spring training in the Florida city and he is ambitious to have the Bushmen return there in 1925 Gift of the watch by the ball club was a mark of appreciation for Adelson’s efforts the past spring.

Leslie Mann, Indiana University baseball and basketball coach, has filed his resignation with the board of trustees.

as to make the wisest possible play. A ground ball is difficult to handle only when the fielder plays it badly and gets it between bounds. This happens often, even to the most expert infielders in the major leagues. When a ground ball is hit in the general direction of the shortstop he must figure the number of bounds the ball will take before it reaches him and play it accordingly.

TAYLOR TO TOP OFF WORK HERE FOR MONDAY GO Fans Expect Hard Fight When Bud Meets Coulon at Ball Park, Bud Taylor. Terre Haute bantam. was scheduled to reach Indianapolis today. He will complete his training here for the ten-round battle with Eddie Coulon at Washington Park Monday night. Coulon worked out here Friday and ring fans who visited the Mitchell Club were impressed with the skill of the New Orleans lad. Coulon has met many of the best boys in his division and he does not fear the wicked punching of Taylor. Therefore, the Monday feature scrap is expected to be a thriller because Taylor plans to try for a knockout. Matchmaker Harter has arranged a program of prelims that will give the fans plenty of action. Gene Risk has taken Kid Rozelle’s place on the card and will battle Billy Myers, Frankfort. Larry Young of Ben Davis will meet Johnny Fox of the Pennsyl Shops in a six-round scrap. The Pinkie Crosby Jack Myers bout has been dropped. Walter Eckersall of Chicago will referee the main go and Mike Mitchell will handle the other bouts. Promoter Harter has arranged to seat a large crowd at his big fistic j carnival. Fifty per cent of the net receipts will be turned over to the entertainment committee of Sahara Grotto and many Grotto members plan to take in the show.

On a ball it may be necessary for the shoytstop to back up a couple of steps to be in a proper position to receive it. On another ball it may call for the fielder to run in three or four steps to meet it. In the parlance of the ball field, getting a ground hit on the proper bound is known as "playing the ball.” The big bound is always the proper bound, making it easV to handle. When a fielder is not taking a

Bn SKA Serrier Sf ST IN, Texas, June 21.—Joe Ward, greatest hero of University of Texas, quit cold when drafted to appear nude before a co-ed art. class. Ward, hero of diamond, gridiron and cage, and who may be the first man to win four block letters at the university, was drafted by the art department Prof. Raymond Everett hold that Ward had the most nearly perfect body on the campus.

Such a ball is one that is hit on a line, very close to the ground and strikes a few feet in front of the shortstop. Another type is the slow hit ball with a fast runner. To try to figure getting the slow hit ball on the high bound would nine times out of ten mean the loss of the decision at first base.

The line drive that strikes a few feet in front of you and the slow batted ball are two types the shortstop must take as they come. The main essential in the successful completion of such plays is to keep your eye on the ball until it strikes your glove. Confidence and getting the jump on the ball are two essential assets every shortstop must possess. Always make an effort to field the ball such a manner that you are in a position to throw without

certain baiters are prone to hit and familiarity with the style ball that is to be pitched them, is of great aid to the shortstop in shifting on each batter so as to be in the best possible position. Tagging the runner must also be considered. Getting a good grip on the ball and laying it in front of the bag, directly in the path of the runner, will get most of them. On runners with a deceptive slide it is best to get between them

He was bred by the late W. H. McCarthy of Terre Haute. Ind.. and derived his name from the nickname given McCarthy, which was “Knap." The Hoosier reinsman got his title following the CiY-il War. when | he stole a knapsack, filled it Yvith his earthly possessions and left home. ' When he applied for work with a noted trainer of the time the latter observing McCarthy's “trunk. ' tacked the moniker "Knap” on him, and it held until his death. Bred to Walnut Hall McCarthy raced a mare called Ethel Mac and shortly before his untimely death in a race at Carlin\'ille, 111,, some years ago, sent this mare to be bred to the Walnut Hall stallion, Nan Francisco, 2:07*2. The resultant foal was named Knap Frisco. When the McCarthy estate was settled up Knap was put on the market. James Clark of Cleveland, a great friend of McCarthy’s, bought the colt. Later he sold a half interest in him to a Pittsburgh friend. The colt was shipped to a stock farm near Bellevue, Ohio, and ! nearly died before the following spring graining season. Liter the Pittsburgh man bought out Clark's interest and took the colt over. Entered In Rich Derby No well did he race in 1923 that Jesse Fischer, the East Liverpool (Ohio) sportsman, wanted the colt and gave up $7,500 for him, with a view to Yvinning the $25,000 Derby and many other stakes. For old Knapsack’s sake, as well as-his present OYvner, turf fans evrywhere would like to see Knap home first, in the big race. However, his opposition will be worthy, hut he is a blue blood and bred to go fast. MARION TAKES"TOURNEY Mrs. Jessup Wins Finals of Roeliampton Net Event.
