NEW YORK, July 20 () If
you hang around with major lea
guers, you'll hear plenty of tall
tales anout tne -gooa oia aays
in baseball and how kids used
to be happy to play with a home
made ball on a field grubbed
out of a briar patch .... and
likely as not you'll hear that
kids nowadays nave 10 ue panv
pered and won't play under con
ditlons that the old-timers re-
carded as normal. ... In contro'
version of such statements, we
present the following letter from
Wendell kalime, vne Newport,
Vt., sports scnoe.
. .
!M HEAD IT AND WEEP
"I' thought you might like to
hear' about the game the Baron
town baseball team played at
East Hardwick the other day.'
writes Wendell. "Barton lost the
game, 18 to 13, but the score
does hot necessarily indicate
poor playing on either side. A
hit ball which would look like
an easy out would hit a bump
and bounce over the player's
head, far out of quick retriev
ing. Even the catchers had to
run over a Knoii alter ioui Dans.
' SPECIAL TALENTS
"The fence which surrounded
the pasture was another bad
feature, Lalime luruier ex
plains; -"Balls hit through the
fence would not have gone for
a double. . . . Some of our Ver
mont ball players know how to
hurdle the barbed wire enclos
ures, and in most cases of this
nature a nit over tne lence
doesn't go for a homer unless
you can make it. ... mere were
five ' pitchers, who had their
troubles, too. . They couldn't see
the plate. The cows hadn t got
around to do any grazing in
that particular spot.

DISPUTED DECISION
What was it those old-timers
were saying about modern kids?

For some strange reason most
