He will alno do the punt ing, and will play the end position on defense. (Jhapton, Nesler and Shaw will be halfbacks and Herron will play at full. McNeill and White are cast for end positions and are good men for the place. They are both strong men and will put up a good defense with Egerer's help. AAeraeen s line win oe nrnvy "Who did the most to make baseball the interesting game it Is?" This question was asked of President Harry Pulliam. of the National league, recently. And the big chief of the organization was almost at a loss to answer. Several other baseball men present sought to sasist Pulliam. "The In ventor of the foul -strike rule," said one, "did the most Rood for the game. He made cleaner, faster baseball pos sible, and I think the fans have enjoyed the game more since the new rule wa adopted." "It was the-" man who Invented the round bat." put in Frank Rlchter. "The adoption of ,the round bat made the game uncertain, and It is the uncer tainty of baseball that makes it so In teresting. "If a square bat were used the ball would not be knocked in so many dif ferent directions, and there would be an absence of foul llpe. I take off my hat to the man who Invented the round bat." Diamond Man oets Credit. "Although I agree with you to some extent," said Pulliam. I must say that another man should be given - more credit than any other person who had anything to do with perfecting the game. That man Is the individual who laid out the diamond, who figured that the dis tance between bases should he 90 feet. "To me It haa always been a wonder how anyone ever figured out that the bases should be 90 feet apart. It Is possible to beat a man to first by a i perfect throw rrom any part or me diamond, and it is just possible for j runner to beat the ball to the base by a few inches In many instances, A throw must be almost perfect to retire a man running to a base. Tor ne nas almost as good a cnance as tne Dan. Caa Just Make Base. "Then, when a player goes to steal second, be can 4,ist make the base on an Imperfect throw or he can be beaten out by a few Inches and often by sev eral feet when the catcher makes a perfect throw. The chances of stealing third are mucn smauer, out u is pos sible. I often wondered how that was liftured outi and have rtnany come to the conclusion that It must have been an Inspiration. just think how much of an advan tage the baserunner would have if the baselines were a foot or two shorter and w-hat an advantage the rftelder would have If they were a little longer. I doff my bonnet to the man who In laying out the diamond fixed the dis tance between bases at 90 feet."

ABERDEEN FEARS TOR ITS LOWLAND BIRDS (Special Pinpatrh to The Journal.) Aberdeen, Wash., Nov. 6. The at tention of the authorities In this county will be called to the flagrant violations of the game laws charged to some of the sportsmen in different sections. Hunters have been reported as having killed ducks and geeae far In excess of the number allowed by law In the west ern part of the county, while in the eastern part, quail and Chinese pheas ants have fallen victims to the weapons of the "game hog." Complaints have also been received of the wanton destruction of gulls, coots, shags, herons and other fish-eating birds. The extermination of these birds means the extermination of ducks and geese, as these fowls are the natural ; decoys for them, and their absence i means the loss of the excellent hunting now enjoyed by the sportsmen of this section. "-y" The large number of houseboats and launches now kept In the lower part of the bay also tend to Keep tne ducks nnd geese out of the harbor, as the lights kept burning at night scare, the birds frpm their feeding grounds. Hunters are now keeping a close watch for men who shoot from launches, and anyone discovered will be prosecuted. It Is also charged that some hunters are very careless in their shooting, using high power rifles, and being careless in their aim, no that it is feared that some bad accident will yet take place owing to their carelessness.

Billy Inglls, the optimistic amateur athletic promoter of Seattle, who ar rived in town this morning with the Seattle boxers- and wrestlers, who moer Multnomah club tonight, believes that Seattle win corae to the front and make a bid for the championships. If they can be secured and the fair directors stand the expense, he promises that Seattle will give such an athletic car nival as has never been seen in the west. 810,000 Necessary. For 5,000 Inglls believes an excellent neia can be made in the heart of the exposition grounds, and for an equal sum the easterners can be guaranteed that their expenses will be met. Tnirlu figures that another . 110,000 cannot be spent so profitably In an advertising way. President James E. Sullivan and other important members or the union direc torate, assured Inglls on bis trip east recently that they were heartily in fa vor of sending the championships to tjie far west.
