Pleasant street school base- ball team defeated the Greeneville school team at the Academy campus on Wednesday afternoon by a score of 7 to 5. The Mt. Pleasant team played snappy ball all the way through with the exception of one inning when “the Groeneville boys scored three rums. Burke playing first for the Mt. Pleasant street school was the shining light of the Mt. Pleasant team., Burke has the makings of a real ball player when he attains a few more years. Bhe Greeneville boys threatened to ti the score in the ninth inning when the Mt. Pleasant team was forced to give them four outs in this inning owing to a slip by Umpire Davis who allowed a runner' to take first base when the catcher dropped the ball with a man on first. The Greeneville pitcher. the first man up in the ninth, hit sately and the next man up struck out but the catcher dropped the last strike and the batter Tan to’' first and Umpirk Davis allowed the play. Tuckily the Mt. Pleasant boys pulled a neat double play for two outs and an easy roller to the pitcher made 'the third out_or what was really the fourth out of -the inning. Mr. Davis after the game maintained that he was correct in allowing the bats- men to go to first on the dropped ball when first was already occupied by-a runner. 1In.the officlal rule book Rule 51. sec 8. say: “If, while first base be occupled by a base runner. the third strike be called on the batsman by the umpire, anless two men are already out, the batsman is out.” Further. Umplre Billy Evans' version of this play is as follows: “If, while first base be occupled by ‘a base ‘runner, the third strike be called on him by the umplre, the batsman is out, whether or mot the ball is caught, unless two ‘men are already out. This rule often confuses. not only the epectators but players as well. Often a player after being automatically retired on such a play, dashes for first, thereby causing much confusion, This rule was made to protect the runmer or\rmuners who happened to be on the bases when a batsmam strikes out. Wise catchers made it a practice to purposelv drop the ball, thereby open- ing a possibility for a double play. By making the batsman automatically ou tonethree strikes, with first occupied. X -prevents such a possibility arising and thereby pro- tects the base runner. - It doesn't matter if the third strike is a wild pitch that goes to the grand stand, the' batter is out” FULLER’S APPOINTMENT FILLS OUT YALE COACHING STAFF New Haven, May 31—With the ap- pointment today of Myron E.

Oils continued to advance for the most part under lead of Mexican and Pan- ‘American Petroleum, -General Asphalt and several of the domestic group, but cancelled much of their gain later when Standard Ofl of California reacted. Leaders among steels,equipments and motors were sluggish, giving place to speculative issues. British Empire Steel first and second preferred rose sharply, with Republic, Midvale and Vandium hardened. P Sugars, metals and severa] of the food specialties were bought on higher prices quoted for raw and refined commoditles. Individual issues of those descriptions included Coco Cola and Postum Cereal. both st high records, American Beet Sugar and food products, but prices as a Whole: eased as money rates rose. Sales amounted to 1,285,000 shares. Call loans™ opened at four ner cent. advanced to 4 1-2 In the fourth hour and to 5 per cent. in the final half ‘hour. The stiftening of rates was ascribed to shift- ing of funds resulting from June in- terest and dividend payments. Thirty day loans were made at 4 per cent., but longer dates were fractiogally higher. Apart from the firmness of British rates, leading forelgn exchanges eased modstately from Monday'® best quota- tions brokers reporting renewed offerings of French and Italian bills. Paris cables gave no intimation of new developments regarding German reparations. Among the meutral exchanges the Dutch rate cancelled most of its recent rise. _ BTOCKS.
