j A PUZZLER FOR
j THE RULE SHARPS
Here la a new ona for tha atudenta
lof baseball rules:
"With tha baaaa full and two men
, out. the batsman hit a grounder to the
. ahortetop, who atartad to throw to 11 rat,
{but bit the umpire, who probably was
•behind tha pitcher. The gall glanced
off to the second baseman, who threw
it to the plate and the umpire called
thet runner out, thereby retiring the
aide."
The umpire wee wrong. The rules
say that when a throw by any flelder to
Intercept a baa* runner hits the lira-
'jdre th* base runners must return to
their bates. But this la Impossible, for
you cannot put four men on three
bases and no rule In the. book allows an
umpire to put a base runner who has
Ju.t become one by making a safe hit
at bat again.
When this play happened the aide at
bat claimed that the ball was "blocked"
and that the baae runners could keep
going until the ball was returned to
the pitcher in his box.
Obviously, however. It was not a
, Mocked bell, for the definition of that
' ball la "a batted or thrown ball that Is
j touched, stopped or handled by a per-
ison not engaged In the game.”
The query wee submitted to Umpires
.Carpenter and Klem of tha National
Leiiue. and to Secretary McRoy, of
th* American League, and all three
agreed that In tha lack of a definite
rule to cover the play, they would have
allowed the runner from third lo score,
permltlng each man to advance a base,
Jaat as If a bated ball had hit the um
pire. This seemed the Just ruling as a
throw which hits on umpire supposed
ly would be too wild to retire the run
ner at first.

Boston, July ll.-Joe Walcott Is atlll wet
ter weight champion of lb* world. He
proved II at tb* Lincoln Athletic eiub of
fthelaca last night.
Walcott's opimnont waa Jack Doherty,
formerly an English hoy, now balling from
Milwaukee. Dougherty haa lo hla credit
among a long aerloa of victories In the last
year draw* with Jimmy Oerdner and Honey
Mailed/, ao II must he admitted (bat Wat-
cott'a re-entry Into the ring waa not made
against any "eaay mark."
The two fighters welghrd In at I o'clock
at 142 pounds and both entered the ring
mnlldenl. It waa give-end-take for the
first seven round*.
Joe rushed In for the eighth and started
lo hammer Doniberty’a kidneys. He aaw
an OIH-Iilng nml swung hla right hard to
Dougherty's Jaw. following It an rapidly
with the left alao to the Jaw that Dough
erty went down and waa counted out.
Dougherty made a goo.I Impression. He
la clever, fast and ran bit hard with boll)
hands. Hr la moat certainly * match for
any boxer of hla weight In the ring, hut
he waa beaten nnd beaten beyond tb*
shadow of a doubt by tho Boston negro,
who haa held the title In that class for
nnny years.
Th# Imut waa for tho woltar weight
