This one looks like a sensational performer, and unless a' guesses go astray, he will win about all of the big purses this season in his class. Grand Opera is the only one that appears to have stamina enough to give the MacKenzie stallion any- thing like an argument, and this latter son of Claus Forester and Little Belle will just about take care of all the others, and do it quite as easily as the Joe Patchen horse will take care of Grand Opera.

Spitball a Dangerous Feature of Pres- ent Day Game. Many people. wonder why it is so many more players are injured in baseball these days than was the case years ago, It is a fact that the per- centage of players incapeocitated 1is greasr now than before, The real reason is because baseball men are faster, take more ehances, and the game {8 mors scientifically played. First and primary %here are more elose plays en the diamend. That ne- cesgitates greater speed, players in their desire to win take more chances, hers employ mere speed andd s, which they often are to control, All this tends to| use of the development of play, and a systematic defense, including the shifting infleld and outfleld to the supposed weakness of some batter, there are more eclose playe at first base. Because of trying to kill off bunts there are more close plays at the other bases. Because of the pltchout and waste ball the catch- er has a better change to try for base stealers. The result is the desperate slide, which always carried an element of danger both to baseman and base runner. As a recompense for the in- creased danger, basemen have learned how to care for themselves better, and there are fewer spikings than four or five years ago. At the same time few- er runners subject the baseman to spikes aloft, although collisions are ‘more numerous. In the case of pitchers, the spitball, difficult to control, makes a hit bats- man a more serious affair. The spit- ball, to be effective and get its sharp | break, must be fast, so broken arms are not uncommon when the batter is plugged. The old roundhouse curves seldom fool for long a 20th century slugger, unless they are interspersed a8 a change of pace from a fast deliv- ery. To get sharper curves the speed must be greater. Another reason why more players are out of the game has for its basis the increase in the speed of the game itself rather than the se- riousness of the Injury.
