The rules state that no run con score on a play in which the third out is a force play, The carclessness of the base runner so made this play, therefore the run does not count, In a like manner, the batsman apparently made a two-base hit his hit, as the rules state the man cannot be efedited with a hit when his drive results in a force play.

If the young pitchera in the minors who seek to. make the big show would lay aside all their freak deliveries and get control, thoir curve and fast one would get’ them fade “THAT'S an easy one,” replied | Ryan. ‘“Control, of course.

WEBB BROTHERS Embalmers Licensed Embalmer in Charge DAY PHONE 246 NIGHT PHONES 246-! Licensed Embalmer in Charge . On August 29, Governor McMaster, of South Dakota, issued the following statement:— “Ata meeting with Colonel Ste Chairman of the Board of Directors o the Standard Oil Company of Indiana and other Standard Oil Officials, held in Pierre this morning, Mr. Stewart ex- ressed unqualifiedly the willingness of tandard Oil to comply with the wishes of the consumers of the State of South akota in so far as those wishes could be expressed and interpreted by the goyernor of this state. These Standard officials, although they contend that the present prices do not properly reflect the costs of production, refining and dis- tribution, plus a reasonable profit, were willing, at my request, to do one of two hings—raise the price of gasoline imme- diately in the State of South Dakota where it would represent’ a six and six- tenths cent reduction over former prices, or maintain, for the time being, sixteen cent gasoline in the State of South Dakota, using Mitchell as a base. “After due consideration, the Standard il officials were-asked by the governor to maintain the present price of 16 cents for the time being. I wish to ae full responsibility for this situation and state that Standard Oil, by deed and act, is working in fullest co-operation with the governor of this state and therefore can in no respect be blamed for 16 cents gasoline from this date. “T realize that the independents who have viciously assailed and attacked me will raise bitter complaint against this condition. However, after: due con- sideration and investigation, I wish to say that if the former line prices of this state were excessive, the indepen- dents of this state were just as respons- ible for that condition and were just as ilty of taking excess profits as was gas Oil. ¥ 4 “At no time during the period which former gasoline prices prevailed did any independent of this state raise one objec- tion or bring one complaint to this office in ibaa by ping about aay reduction in price but they were perfectly willing to profit to the fullest extent. “T realize that all sorts of charges will be made against me because of this ac- tion, but in view of the fact that gasoline can be_purc 1 at various refineries today for Suprocinately seven cents a gallon, it _ hot work injury to the ublic cause if the Independents are forced for the time being to do buSiness on a small margin of profit. Thereis no particular reason whyvthe State Govern- ment should guarantee to the Independ- ent Oil Dealers of this state, at least for the time being, fix profits,especially in view of the fact that they were perfectly willing and were party to take ex- cessive profits from e people.” : \ This -clearly defines the position which the Standard Oil Company (Ind- jana) has maintained throughout this controversy. \ Standard Oil Company ee ..
