In base winning there has been a

years. 1 do not attribute It to lack of
speed on the part of the players.
Rather, It can be traced to the fact
that a running game, Involving the
risk of being thrown out, particularly
on an attempted steal, la not good base­
ball under present-day conditions. One
run means little or nothing these days.
The afoul Is a one-run play, so nat­
urally, pilfering bases as a part of
baseball Is rather antiquated. It Isn’t
done, except on stated occasions, by
the best of teams.
In the matter of fielding, I would
say there was but little difference on
the whole; If anything, thia phase of
the game has Improved. Better gloves
and improved surfaces on the Infields

Oklahoma Athlete Wants
Letters in Four Sports.
Enthusiasts who are Inclined to en­
ter controversy over the relative mer­
its of the fading sport of college base­
ball and the slipping “one-man” sport
of track may be Interested in the de­
cision of Tom Churchill, Oklahoma's
famous all-round athlete, to drop track
ibis year to play baseball.
Churchill’s desire to earn letters In
all of the four major sports has caused
him to decide to give up the track and
field game and turn to the diamond.
He has shown ability as a pitcher tn
Interfraternity baseball and In inde­
pendent baseball during vacation
months.
Besides being a track and field star,
Churchill was a unanimous selection
for all-BIg Six end last fall and re­
ceived several all-American citations.
He played on the East eleven In the
East-West football game at San Fran­
cisco. Ho was also unanimous choice
as all-conference forward In basket­
ball during his sophomore and Junior
years. This year he has been handi­
capped by injuries received In the
East-West football game and has not
been up to par on the painted court.
Churchill weighs slightly over 200
pounds, but is not slow. Besides be­
ing versatile In the major college
sports, he has a reputation as an ama­
teur boxer. His home is In Wichita,
Kan.
