PUZZJtfNcT'PLAYS BUM JUDGED WHERE LAST SEEN How does the umpire judge a ball that is batted over the fence or into a stand that is the regulation distance for a home run, 250 feet from the home base? THE legality of a home run that is batted over the fence or into a stand that is the regulation distance from the plate is determined

according to where it finally disappears from the umpire’s view. It is not sufficient that the ball be fair when it passes out of the confines of playing territory. It must remain a fair ball until it disappears from the

Evans

view of the umpire-in-chief, working back of the plate. Several years ago a change was made in the rule relative to a home run that passed out of playing territory. Under the wording of the rule the umpire judged the ball according to where it was when it passed out of the park or into a stand. No attention was afterward paid to the course of the ball. This rule caused more confusion than putting it up to the umpire to judge the ball fair or foul according to where he last saw it and a change back to the old wording of the rule was made.

ARIEL (Eternal-Adana) is a fine looking dark fellow who had a lot of trouble last year and who has yet to be tested this season. He started nine times as a two-year-old and won five times for total earnings of $30,200. His best race was shown in winning the Saratoga Special, but his legs went bad on him and he was unable to start in the Futurity. During the winter he was fired in both knees and ankles. He has shown speed, courage and class, but even the greatest hearts can’t make up for bad legs if he still has them.
