Maybe l-iug didn't hit more than

do; but he, did say that the Babe
would be reinstated when he (ling-

BASEBALL NEED.
Regulation bail fields is what‘t‘llo
national pastime needs to make it
a better game. i
The infield is. of course. standard-
ized. but the outfield distance from
plate to fence should also be a set
distance.
Baseball has its regulation but. and
ball. The gloves must be of certain
. definite proportions. but, outside of
the diamond itself, .few ball parks
are alike.
No two major league fields have
exactly the same distance as to the

After the game Huggins. refresh-

what was what.
“There were general and specific
instances of misconduct for which

am not going to say any more about

Suspension Will llcluuln.
Ruth hasn't apologized to Hug-

whether that ceremony would be
followed at once by lifting the Ilubc's
suspension, Huggins indicated that
it would not. “I don't think I should
do anything for two or three days."
the manager said, "though a man

By BILLY EVANS
On an inter-(gelled play. does the
umpire at any time give considera-
tion as to whether or not such in-
tcrfcrenoc was accidental?
O C O
Interference plays are. the bane of
an umpire's life. Such “plays are
often it matter of judgment unless
the interference was so plain that
there was no deubt about it. ,
When an umpire might often wish
that he could temper common sense
with the strict wording of the rule,
it is impossible for him to give any
consideration to whether or not the
interference was accidental.
The holder always has the right
of'way. It is up to tho bascrunner
to avoid him. In some cases contact
between fielderand baserunuer may
he more the fault of the fielder but
that fact cannot be taken into con-
sideratlon. If there, ls'intcrfcrence.
whether intentional or accidental,
the runner must be called out.
It umpires gave thought to wheth-
er the interference was accidental or
constantly
be in hot water. The baserunner
would have a perfect alibi in that he
didn't try try-interfere with the field-
er. that the. happening was purely
accidental. Incidentally, when it was
apparent to him that he might pull
mething and get away with it on
t e accidental theory. he would nev-
er overlook the. opportunity.
While in’ccrtaln cases ltmay seem
that the penalty on the baserunner
is rather severe, yet to give consid-
eration to the possibility of' them-
terfcrence being accidental would
make the Meet the umpire a much
tougher one. ‘
