Before a baserunuer can accom plish much, his relation to the bats man and the remainder of the team must be clealy defined in his mind. The usual idea of the amateur con cerning the baserunner is that he is the one who achieves the initial base and must, be boosted along- by the efforts of the batsman. That the batsman is a mere adjunct to the runners, players everywhere of the national game will do well to get well established in their minds. There are scores of batsmen that have not got it there 1 speak gen erally of college players and colle giate ball. It seems that the prin cipal fault of the average ball player who has a little merit and is ambitious is the tendency to for get that he is working for the good of his team, the welfare of his team mates, and that it is the baserun ner that crosses the home plate and wins the game. He thinks more of his batting average and the pos sible remarks from the - grandstand and bleachers than he does of the runner; he wants to star. This, in any well regulated team, should not be. As a matter of fact the batsman who blots this idea from his thoughts and helps the man on the bases to get over home plate is the man we are looking for. Technically a batsman does not become a base runner until he has beaten his play to first; but his running responsibilities begin the moment he starts for first base. The winning of first base is of vital importance. Therefore every bats man who steps to the plate should have his mind made up to run to first base as though he had an excellent chance to beat out the play, even though the ball seems to be going for an easy out. Nothing is lost by running, and something is often gained by it. The argu ment is frequently offered that it is rare that any good results from "running it out," that it simply tires the man down and effects his defensive play. But to refute any such argument I may say that as the batsman does not come up, or at least he rarely does in any close contest, more than once in every two innings the brief effort can hardly wind him, if he be in any condition at all. The matter of coaching a batsman for position at the plate, and for stride in leaving, has for a number years created more or less comment among baseball men. To be gin with, wc may say the left-hander has the advantage of some three feet in direction towards first base. He is also in better position to break and run after he has made a play that calls for an attempt. Never theless there are plenty of fast right-handers who beat out bunts and short infield hits regularly, and who do it solely because they are alert to start. Then we may say that every batsman should cultivate a poise which will enable him to get away from the plate in - the quickest possible manner. The fraction of a second after deter mines the fate of the would be base- runner. Some men can rely upon their natural speed to get down to first in about four seconds, which is fast enough to beat most infield plays of any depth at all, but 'those, PICK ARD'S LIVERY STABLE (Near the Episcopal Church) Rubber Tire Carriages and Buggies.

Most batters, when they find they are not as fast as some other members of the team, fall back too much on slugging- to g-et them to first, thereby neglecting practice and precaution in regard to baserunning. This is a mistake, and a serious one. It is obvious that if you are a good batter, you will be a still better one if you can. increase your speed or shorten the time in g-oing down the lane to the first corner.
