HARD GAME SCHEDULED I.AUH AMI CHAPMAN SCHOOL TRIMS TO MKKT. Neither Nine Has Defeat to Credit in Grammar .School I.eajtue and Championship at Stake. The undefeated Ladd and Chapman Grammar School baseball teams will meet Friday to battle for the su premacy of section one of the Portland Grammar School League. Both nines have played six games and won all. Chupman will meet tne Stevens team on May. 12 before engaging in the pame with Ladd. while the latter has yet to play the Failing School aggre gation. After losing its first two games the Shattuck School team came back and won four straight victories, giving what seems a "cinch" on third place of section four. The Lents team, with eight victories and no defeats to its credit, lias the championship of section two assured. The Clinton Kelly were the runnersup.

It is not hard to figure why Vancou ver and Seattle are far out in front of their Northwestern League rivals. Van couver leads the league in batting, 30 points ahead of the closest rival, while Seattle is 'the best fielding aggrega tion. Vancouver ranks third in field ing and Seattle third In batting. In addition, Vancouver leads in extra, base hits and has two men topping the play ers of the circuit as run-getters. However, these ligures boost Vic toria, which is down in the ruck of the percentage column. The Bees rank m,ysTy.l In linttiti- Kecond in fielding and second in extra base clouts. Portland is last in team natiing, fourth in team fielding and fifth in extra base hitting. Also the Colts, who boast of an exceedingly fast infield. have recorded only eii;ht double plays, or had In the figures up to an includ ing the games of May 6, placing them sixth in the list. However, the infield was shot to pieces and Williams' squad Is already climbing towards the top in this department. Ed Kippert, of Vancouver, is setting a terrific pace for the league batsmen. He has an average of .4-'9 for 19 games and In addition is champion run-getter. Fullerton. of Seattle, is the leading pitcher, with four straight victories, but Hynes and Callahan, of Portland, have won two each without a defeat. Fullerton has the strike out record Of 12.

CX- pUyii.B manager Sail Francisco 1'aclflc Coaat leasuers. ) ADVICE to second base aspirants can apply, in a great measure, to all inflelders. In the first place, never wait for the ball to come to you. but start up at the crack of the bat. Infielders who are good only when the ball takes a full bounce, will never do: you must practice taking them on the half bounce and any way they come to you. Like the shortstop, the second base man must retrieve all Texas leaguers along the foul line. He does not have to have as good an arm as the short stop, but otherwise, his duties are about the same. In work around sec ond, however, the keystoner has many opportunities to tag runners coming down from first. Sometimes the run ners stop before they get to him. in which ease It is advisable to throw quickly to first. The first-sacker can then throw to second and get the smart aleck runner, only he must then btf touched for the force has been relieved at first base. F.nrly Start 'inadvisable. . The second baseman has further to go to the bag to take a throw from tha catcher, but he should not start too soon. I have often taften one step before the ball landed' in the catcher's mitt and as a result the" ball went through .my position and I w-as off balance. Don't go over until the ball passes the batter. When a bunt is expected, the first baseman generally runs in; In which ....... tha Hpcnnd-sacker must move in closer and be prepared to cover that bag. One of the hardest situations for the catcher and the infielders to handle is when first aiid third bass are oc cupied and one or nobody out. i The correct play when the man on Crimson's Victory "Unexpected, Ith aca School Having Been Favorite Since Its Victory Over .Michl gan Saturday Week Ago.

If the catcher and second baseman aro both neaay, experiences players with good -arms, this is the best wav to make the play: The second baseman leaves his po sition with the pitch (even at the risk of leaving his position unguarded) and approaches second base from behind. The catcher will not tnrow tne oau until he has bluffed the runner on o,i.j v. . .-.I- tn' the hnsr. The second baseman then takes the throw at sec ond coming In, meanwhile, keeping an eye on the runner at tniro. j Play for Plate Rapid. If he starts for home, the second sacker keeps on coming in, and takes the throw, which must always be low. midway between second and the pitch er's box. He then shoots it duck at tne rnlphpr. When the runngr at third aoes not attempt ''any liberty the second base man waits at the bag and merely does the regular tagging. Another scheme, more In vogue among amateur teams, is for the snortstop to cover the bag and the-second base man to cut in halfway between the pitcher and tho keystone.
