a iS SLT PEN ETT NT t EVENING eer aca ceee cetacean eee WORLD’S SCHOOL rrATHLETES No. 2—HOW TO BAT, BY WILLIE KEELER, THE WORLD'S MOST BS SCIENTIFIC HITTER. HIE well-known’ assertion that) hitters are born and not made {s not entirely true, I have known of many good hitters who were bad at the start, A change in style of hitting sometimes brings about wonderful and unexpected re- ,Sults. At your request I will, cheres, fore, try to point out some of the es- 1 sential requisites ofa good patter, and boys who are growing up may understand some points that will help them to {mprove thelr hitting. The first thing needed as a founda- tion for a good batter is a good, clear | eye. Without a perfect vision and a| quick eye no boy can ever become a batter. That's why they say batters gre born: It is because they were born with good syes. hope of ever becoming a good Hitter, N addition to a good eyo a batter I must have courage, ‘That {s, ho must not fear to face the ball. The Ritter, who get sready to’ strike at « ball and then unconsciously finches and stena back from thevplate when It 2emes near wil not become a hitter. A batsman oannot hit tho ball unless he! follows it with hie eye continuously from the time {t Jeaves thw: piteher’s hands, Many of our best batters often let the ball come within a@ hail inch of | thelr {aces know its merely im the ball ys 1 and they are not ne Batters who pull cmap trom the plate often dispute the umpir's decision on strikes.

No good batter lows a ball to hit him just to Ret | his bare unless it is in case of dire seinergency. BY purposely allowing Noto hit you an Went may occur [shat Wit) keop you oat of the game for ony batter has A natural styte of standing at the plate. but it is fiways correct with your head almoat over the plate. This kives the batter a better oppor=) tualty of judging the ball. oT strike at the ballun vou want it. It ja somes, strikes yo Dy) it to it fat it pe aR much as nt rain tdea in| doesn't come go.

Do not to lean forward |draw the bat back of you, but hit In| jfront of you. When a batter draws back for a swing he loses the direction | of the hy { HERE are times when tt {x advie- | able to bunt insteaii of hit, even though there are no runners on A _g00d batter who sees the [third basemen playing very ‘deep’ will bunt the ball in that direction, and in ‘a majority of casos he will beat tt out ‘The hitter needs three qualities: A clear eye, quick wit end courage. It is ¥ not a question of strength mo much as acience. ~—GHICAGD JUDGE: MEANS 10 we Court by poena Servers Dodging Sub- 7 order that the CHICAGO, Gn rment's 6 nett tes Dis- i Baturday Attorn _ may bos in ckefefler saful be- f the case been States *| company the De the Hooke rele bry Cato winen Mr Mt e known to. afl Gexiring (0 2 him with subpoena so panera.
