=l WHITE HAS SHUT-OUT HONORS Chicago Twirler Holds Record for Blanking Foes, Not Jack Chesbro, Says Statisticlan. George L. Moreland, the Pittsburgh baseball statistician, has found figurea tending to prove that “Doc” Harry ‘White of the Chicago White Sox estab lished the world’s record for consecu tive runless innings for 46 innings and “Doc” White. 0t Chesbro for the Highlanders with -2 as recently contended. White shut out Cleveland, St. Louis, Detroit, New ‘York and the Athletics in nine inning games in 1904. The San Francisco club has been informed by the Detroit club that Oscar Vitt will not be sold at any price for the present at least, and Manager Howard is now looking else- Where for a third baseman Weight of Pirates’ Bats. A statistical person has figured out that the bats used by the Pirates in the twenty-six seasons they have been in the big leagues represent 1,379,080 ounces, or 80,130 pounds, or 43 tons of wood. It's all right, but, according to our figuring, 1,879,080 ounces make 86.192 pounds. William C.

Bemldjl, Minn, HANDICAP TO PLAYERS Stars Who Suffered Because of Size of Their Digits. Cy Seymour Found Great Difficulty In Controlling Ball Because His Hands Were 80 8mall—Camp- bell Another Victim. It was the small size of his hands which kept Cy Seymour from being a |’ great pitcher. When he first joined the New York Giants, many years ago, he came as a twirler, but he found the greatest difficulty in securing control of the ball, because his hands are so small that he could not get his fingers all the way around the sphere. Cy was finally forced’to give up pitching entirely and go to the outfleld, where his hitting, rather than his fiélding, kept him in the game for a long period of years. s Vincent Campbell, the fast center Belder of the Bostons, last season, has the same handicap as Seymour in re- gard to the size of his hands. Camp- bell’s mitts are far below the average In length and diameter, and the muffed fiies which he is gullty of are the re- sult of this physical handicap, to a great extent. He i8 also not so good a thrower as he would be if his hands were a bit more bulky. Campbell, however, played better ball last season than ever before. Vincent is a speed marvel, no one excelling him in getting down to first base.i But he has two weak points in oftenslve work. He is a very poor waiter, and so does not get on nearly %0 often as he would it he was able to force the pitcher to pitch to him. His great speed makes him a hard man to- stop in the bases, but he is not on there so much as he would be if he could develop the habit of waiting to better advantage. Campbell -hits 16 points higher than Bob Bescher, but the extra bases on halls secured by the Redleg were more valuable than the extra hits made by the Boston gar dener. Owing to his inability to wait, Camp- bell went to bat more times officially than any other player in the National league last year. He was charged with 624 times at bat, and no other player reached the 600 mark, though 16 of them played in a8 many or more games than he did. This is a serious weakness in a lead-off man, wha should be on base more often by the pass route. Campbell, in spite of his great speed, is not a very clever base runner. While Bescher was stealing 67 bases last year Vincent was copping just 19, both men playing in exactly the same number of games. Many New Catchers. Six major league clubs have new catchers in the role of first string maskmen this geason. In the National Ivy Wingo replaces Bresnahan at St. Louis, Tom Clark has Larry McLeans Job at Cincinnatl, Rariden 18 -in. Kllng'n, Boston shoes and Kelly and.

Then, with Otto Miller at Brooklyn, Henry and Ainsworth at Washiugton, Cady at Boston and O'Nelll at Cleveland the day of the young catcher has apparent 1y arrived. its Well Seasoned. If -the St. Louis Browns fail to hit they ¢an’t lay it to the bats.

In those days it took one man a year to build a watch. Today 12,000 are turned out every twenty-fou- heurs in the United States—over 4,000.000 a year. While you are reading this statement more than 25 complete watches were manu- factured. The Bemidji Speciol is no more like the watch of fifty years ago than the modern harvesting machine is like the old fashioned hand ecythe. AROUND THE WORLD ON A " DROP OF OIL : Did you ever stop and think what a wonderful piece of mechanism a good watch like the Bemidji Special is? Take the hairspring for instance. One mile of this wire weighs less than ‘half apound. The b lance wheel makes 18,000 vibrations an hour—157,000,- 000 a year. It moves 3,558 miles a year on less than one-tenth of a drop of oil. If a locomotive, having six foot driv- ing wheels, were started ' at the equator, and should run until its wheels had performed the same num- ber of revolutions that a balance wheel does in one year, it would make ‘more than twenty-eight complete circuits of the earth. The Bemidji Special is adjusted to every change and condition. Baked in an oven, frozen in a refrigerator, adjusted to position, put ‘through a 700 hour test for accuracy, can you wonder why this wonderful watch is The Standard of this community today. FIVE YEAR GUARANTEE We give a five year guarantee with each Bemidji. Special watch— because they give us the least trouble in making good cur guarantee.
