The tickets will be put on sale in every country which took part in the Olymplc games at Paris, provided its laws permit loans with lottery fea- tures. This excludes the United States. The Dutch commission reached its decision after the project for a popu- lar subscription, considered at first, had been abandoned because of lack of encouragement.

The pltcher who expects to hold runners close to the bags must de- velop a quick throw. He can't waste He will have to throw in one move- Young pitchers might well practice the move in throwing to first and to the batter in front of a mirror. In this way they can de- tect their faults and correct them. The delivery motion to the batter must also be quicker with men on than without. A pitcher should be able to put all his stuff on the ball move.” T have seen some amateur and minor leaguers with good moves mechanically when pitching with men on the paths. But they couldn’t put enough speed on the ball without a full wind-up and the batter could hit them easily. If there is a fast runner on first a pitcher will do well to chase him back to the bag several times, even If he doesn't expect to catch his man. The quick breaks and slides back to the bag are bound to tire the runner omewhat. A runner may be fooled into taking too long a lead after several fairly easy throws to get him, Then, if the pitcher cuts loose a fast one, he has a good chance of catching the runner napping. Change of pace worries a runner, under these condi- tions; as much as it does a batter. A pitcher should have it when pitch- ing and when throwing to first base. Pithers must be constantly alert when there are two men on the bases. A successful steal in a close game may put the opposition in a position to score a deciding run with a hit. A pitcher has to watch base runners so far as he can and have the co-oper- ation of his shortstop and second baseman if there is a man on second. If the pitcher has a hunch or re- ceives a warning that a man is going down, the only thing for him to do, if he is pitching to the batter, is to put the ball over in an unhittable posi- tion. Otherwise the runner may take more than one éxtra base if the hit- and-run play should be on. If it is just a plain steal or a double steal the ball should be thrown so that the catcher will be in a position from which to throw and make a play on a runper.. It isn't always necessary to make a wide pitch out. But, above all, don’t put the ball where the batter will have a:chance to hit it. The hit-and-run is a play which the pitcher' generally has to figure out for Mmself: Any team is likely to put it on-with a man on first and a good place-hitter at bat, 1f-the pitcher thinks.the play fits into the scheme of the enemy attack the best thing he can do is to give the batter a high ball, close in. He won't poke that sort of ball through the infleld. Such a delivery has the advantage of putting the catcher in a fine posi- tion to throw to second base with every chance of cutting down the runner. Anyhow, if the batter does —_— T L7 Datter doos TROUSERS limit to get a 2-to-1 decision over Harry Nixon in the wrestling bout staged at .the Mutual Theater last night.
