(P) Rase running, which has become almost a lost art during .the Ruth ian age of baseball, may bo re vived this year. Max Carey be lieves, if the new and less lively ball adopted by the big leaguers fu?ills its purpose of restoring the more scientific features of the national game. "For years, youngsters and vet erans alike have been swinging from their heels." said the veteran National leaguer, who hopes, after 2 1 years in the game, to land a job as conch and base running tutor this spring. "There has been no purpose In playing for a run or two by exer cising the fine arts of base run ning, the hit and run, or squeeze play. Consequently, scientific feat ures of baseball that were stressed when 1 went up to the Pirates from South Heml around liUD, as understudy to Tommy Leach, have been neglected. ' "When I was breaking In, base running was one of the first things taught to me. Ratting, loo, was more of a science. The so called defensive hitters, such as Johnny Kvers, Hurt Shot ton and the late Miller Iluggins, have van ished In the slugging era. "Nowadays, lea off men, like the rest, go up to the plate to take a healthy cut at the ball, instead of making the most of waiting or defensive ladies. Then, If they get on base, they wait there for a long hit to bring them In. "Few base runners today can compare with old timers like Cobb, Collins or Wagner. In the National league, Kilti Cuyler and Frankie Frisch are In a class by 21. IP) themselves. "W lib slugging cut down by the new ball, more attention probably will he paid to all around couch ing of ball players, most of whom come up to the big leaguers who are fully lacking In knowledge of fundamentals, for example most of them think they have been born with ability to hit curve balls. The fact Is they can he taught to hit hooks as well as fast ones." .750 .fill .fir.fi .375 .111 .11 I .ana York state athletic commission and officials of Madison Square Carded.
