NOT THIS \~/—F~IM(‘,.._ The tall first baseman not only has an advantage because he can catch high balls, but also because e has a much longer reach when an inflelder throws low to him to make a putout. To play such a ball he should reach well forward, as is the player on the left in the illustration. ‘This insures his mak- ing the catch. The player on the right is taking such a throw on the bounce. This is a poor method, as no baseman can accurately Jjudge the bound of a ball, so he is likely to miss it. Catch all balls before they reach the ground when it is possible. That is a good rule for every player to go by. ' FINNIGAN IS WILLING TO ENTER RING HERE Heinie Miller, matchmaker of the new Kenilworth boxing arena, which opens Thursday night with a pro- gram headed by the Cortez-Wiggins bout, received word yesterday from Dan Carroll, manager of Honey Boy Finnigan, to the effect that Finnigan would be glad to box here against any opponent selected for him. “Finnigan {8 now in the big money,” writes Carroll, “and has been promised a_shot at Kid Kaplan and the titlo.

CHICAGO, May 18.—The newly ap- pointed Illinols athletic commission- ers, home after a week’s study of con- ditions on_Eastern pugilistic battle- fronts, will meet probably Thursday, at which time the rules and regula: tions of the body will come up for dis- cussion and perhaps passage. Chairman O. W. Huncke said he could not too highly pralse the New York commission, especinlly its mem- bership and its office system. “By going to New York and observ- ing how that commission functions we saved ourselves at least five years' time,” Chairman Huncke sald. “It possibly would have taken us that long to have progressed to the point we have reached.” Chairman Huncke said the Illinois commission had reached no decision as regards a working agreement with the New York commission, and that the question of decisions by a referee or judges also had not been settled. The commissioners intend to visit Milwaukee, probably next week, to study the system of the Wisconsin athletic commission, which is regard- ed as one of the most efficient in the %z @hmmg Star BOYS CLUB | Conducted by ROBERT C. McCLELLAN BY F. J. LIPOVETZ, Chisholm, Minn., Recreation Director. ORIGINATED a game we call I loop the loop to develop into boys and girls a sense of direc- tion and body balance. The boys of Chisholm went ‘“crazy” over it and I think you'll like it, too. It is simple to play in that it requires no cquipment excepting a field laid out and measured. But there is fun in laying out any sort of a sports field, and so this might be considered part of the game. I'll tell you a lmlc about thc game first and then we'll lay out'the field. First the fleld is 60 feet square, and on each of two sides are num- bers from 100 in the middle down by 108 to nothing. The contestant is blindfolded and started from either of the 100 points. He s turned around twice in jerks and then, fac- ing the opposite line, walks as near as he can stralght across the court. He is not likely to, however, for he has been somewhat confused by being turned around. When he reaches the opposite side an officlal stationed there yells “halt,” and he is turned around and must recross the court. Then he repeats, making four crossings of the court. Each point mark he strikes helps to make his score. For instance, start- ing from 100, if he crossed and hit the opposite line at 48, then crossed back to 45, recrossed to 70 and back at 80, his total score would be 243. Fighest score would proclaim the winner because of the fact that the Dbig numbers are near the center of the court and the boy who walks straightest will hit the big numbers and deserve to win the honors. Fleld of Play. The field is 60 feet square. Start in the ‘center of line AA and cross to center of line BB. Those are the 100 marks. Then on each side at 1- yard intervals mark the other point marks. The lines at the end are foul lines. A player who touches or crosses a foul line is immediately disqualified. You can play this game anywhere. (Copyrirht. 1926.)
