Flaherty says that he is very much opposed to the shutting down of baseball on Sunday, as proposed by the “blue laws” recommended to congress recently. “Raseball i# clean amusement and it's better to have | people out in the open air on Sunday watching a ball game than {t is to | keep them shut up in the house. Of course, I believe in the observance lof the Sabbath, but the avernge workingman doesn't bave any other time | other than Sunday for his amusement, and as loog as it's clean I'm for it.” THAT THE VETERAN HAM HYATT, who wil! pia¥’ first base for the Vernon Tigers next season, still has a lot of good baseball left tn his «ys | tem, is proved In the averages for the American amoclation of the 1920 season just published. Hyatt played first base for the Toledo club in | that circuit and was turned over to Vernon by the New York Yanks at the end of the A. A. schedule. In 152 games Hyatt rolied up a batting avernge Of .31T and scored 96 runs. Of his 168 hits he clouted for a total of 251 bases, 34 hits being doubles, 11 triples and nine homers, the rest being for | singles. He stole 13 bases, made 33 mcrifice hits and struck out but 29 times. He batted cleanup for Toledo and further proof of his hitting | prowess fs listed in the number of free tranmportations to first base he re- | celved—112, or more than any other player in the A. A. And, besides that, Hyatt fielded 990. Not so bad for a veteran. CITY BASKETBALL LEAGUE ENTRIES CLOSE TODAY NTRIES for the city cage league close today.
