When trick pitching t to be the I vogue, Clcolte went deeply into the subject. He made all sorts or ex- pertinents. I It was Clcotte who was responsi ble for the bluck und white bull. He saw to it tlmt about half of the ball would be budly nailed, the jjtb er half kept as cleun us possible, such a bull formed nn optical il lusion as It was hurled to the bat ter, making It a very difficult mat- ,(er to follow lis course. j It whs Kddle Clcotte who proved that by loading the seams of the ball at n, certain spot it wns pos sible to majje the ball cut nil kinds of iiueer capers He got the idea rrom tho::(, once-popular loaded bowling bull.-, .,;(;, i ii. ., !' it was cjcotlo ho "st'drteij'.the shine ball. He demonstrated that hy shining a spot on the bull about tho size of a half dollar ito a much higher luster than any other, part of the cover, a pitcher wus able to get the same effect us with the spit ball. i As a matter of fact the shine ball was really nothing more than a dry j spit ball. Instead of relieving fric- 1 lion by upplylng saliva to the ball at the point of contact with the fin gers, a smooth spot was ucqulred by rubbing- tjie bull on the. unl- form.i', i ,; lit,,.
