I It was Clcotte who was responsi

He saw to it tlmt about half of the
ball would be budly nailed, the jjtb

such a bull formed nn optical il

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
