PUZZj^fIVG^LAYS BlPl MUCH DISPUTED SITUATION When is it possible to score a run on a double play that retires the side? u tt t IT is always possible to score a run on any double play that retires the side, provided- the third out is not a force-out or a play in which the third man out be retired before reaching first base. To illustrate: There are runners on first and third and one out. The batsman hits a difficult drive to right field that looks as if it would

fall safe. The runner on third, playing good baseball, decides to hold that base on the theory that if the ball is caught he can beat the throw to the plate. The runner on first, feeling sure the ball will not caught, runs isrlld. The fielder makes the catch

and the runner on third breaks for home. When the ball is caught the runner originally on first has reached second. The fielder throws the ball to first before the runner can return, completing a double play and retiring the side. On all double plays of this nature the runner can score from third, if he held his base until the ball was caught and crossed the plate before the double play which retired the side was completed. There was no force about the third out. A force can only occur when the runner must vacate a base to make room for the batsman. The third out was made possible by bad baserunning. Just remember, a run can always score on any double play in which the third out is not a force play or a play in which the batsman failed to reach first, provided the runner has crossed the plate in advance of the final out.

The athletes reached the first half of the fourth inning Tuesday before chased by a downpour which left so much water on a diamond the umpires threw up neir hands and called off further action. Two Saints were out in the fourth and runners on second and first when hostilities ended. The Tribe was leading, 2 to 1 when the cloudburst hit the park and chased everybody to shelter. Swetonic and Betts were doing the chucking and the pastimers were doing a good job of playing on a heavy field before they were sent running for the clubhouse to await another twenty-four hours.

‘Latins’ Gain Soccer Lead in Olympiad r ‘Nordic’ Teams Bump Into Defeats and Are Eliminated at Amsterdam. BY FRANK GETTY, United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, June 6.—Looking forward, as we are, to victory for the United States in the Olympic track and field championships at Amsterdam, with Finland, England and Germany competing for tne role of runner-up, it is worthy o’ note that presumption of "Nordic’ supremacy in sport has been dispelled at Amsterdam this week in that most international of outdoor games—soccer football. The semi-finals of the Olympic soccer championship started today, with every team which could be considered representative of “Nordic” races, or even of the “Nordic” conception of association football, eliminated. The "Latins” hold the Olympic field, although it may be stretching a point to exclude the Egyptian team, which is one of the four semifinalists, from consideration. The Argentine eleven undoubtedly will take care of that matter in the stadium at Amsterdam this evening. The other semi-finalists, who meet Thursday, are Italy and Uruguay, obviously "Latin” to the care, as are the Argentinians.
