Docs a .ball player liit better play
W'K in tfrntcr field tTiart' in either of
t!ie winjj. Dosiuons, or do managers
select center fielders for their ability
tt hi.? Why is it we find the heaviest
punch of the great' majority of-ball
clubs concentrated in center field?
Is iL that right and left fielders are
specialist, chosen to play those posi
tions necause ot ainiuy to go enner
to right or left better than the other
vrj. or are the center fielders chosen
because they can come in, go out, and
(ravel to right or left with equal
speed? If this is true, why do center
fielders hit better tlian either left or
right fielders, 0 is ft all an accident?
Wc must take these things into con
sideration when we study the center
fielders. Seemingly i they are Uitlc
more important than either of v the
other positions, and that only because
they get more chances. The chances
a-e, in fact, easier in the average than
those of either right or left fielder be
cause the balls they catch are neither
sliced nor pulled and have much less
curve on them,
I would like to discover why the
hitters are concentrated in renter field
and there is nothing in the game that
shows that they should be, nor is
there anything, so far as I can see, in
the playing of the game that goes to
make a' center fielder a better hitter
unless it' can be that right or left
fielders are more Jiable to play sun
fields, which, of course, would hurt
their eyes.
Felsch Coming Strong. . . '
ThV fact remains that the heavy
artillery of almost all clubs is lo
cated in center field: Cobb, Speaker,
Felsch, Milan, in the American and
Koush and Carey in the National.
There is not a weak hitter among all
the ccnterfield probabilities with the
possible exception of Cy Williams of
mo-Phils, whose weaknesses are just
being uncovered.
It is a great fight for the leadership
in the American league between Cobb;
Speaker and Felsch. Cobb, of course,
holding his lead and Speaker and
barely managing to retain the advan
tage over the Chicago youngster, who
appears bound within season or two
to pass one or both in ability. Felsch,
although outhit by both ' his great
rivals, gains a considerable number of
points because he is a right handed
hitter (the rarest of all great hitters),
and he is coming while both the
others are Hearing the turning points
:f their careers.
Milan, already slipping back point
by point, holds fourth place by a com
fortable lead, with Strunk, now of
JJoston, barely managing to keep
ahead of Smith of St. Louis, who is
roming along fast.. Walker, with his
.wonderful throwing ability and his
fielding speed, keeps Philadelphia up,
nd New York runs last and with few
;iiauces of improving its figures.
The first four American leaguers
are closely bunched in the dope and
the second four rank rather close to
gether, so that there is little chance
that any pennant will be decided in
-enter field.
Roush Holds Lead. ' '
Only one of the National 'league
;1ubs deserves to rank with the first
four American leaguers, and that is
because of the great ability revealed
by Roush, who is becoming one of
the really greaf ball players. Even
when compelled tCK figure Neale as
part of the center fielding assets of
Cincinnati the Reds lead the National
league by a comfortable majority and
we find Pittsburgh asafe and sound
second, due to the spfced of Carey.
In figuring Carey I would not ad
vise anyone to calculate him as
strong in batting as his last year's
record would indicate. Of course the
National league players say that any
one who can see ought to bit in the
National but some don't, and the
pitching: will be better this season
than it was last. Carey is a w6nderful
fielder, a great man on the bases, but
he is not the hitter the figures of
ast season lead one to think.
While the Cubs again make a
rather bad showing in the center
field figures, they are improved there
because. Paskert certainly is a better
man for them than was Williams.
This is not saying Williams will be
a bad man for the Phils. He cannot
hit is incurably a bad hitter in spite
i bis promise of greatness when he

first broke in, but his fault with the
Cubs was a weak arm and weak
arms do not count much on the short
Philadelphia field. Moran, for some
rfason, has an idea he can get good
results from Williams. If he does
he will succeed where everyone else
failed. Williams, when he first broke
in, gave promise of being a great star,
but four managers have tried to cure
his batting faults and surrendered it
as an impossible job. At that Moran
is the best manager to handle Wil
liams he ever has had and such things
have happened.
As to Kauff.
' The loss of Kauff is not as hard a
blow to the Giants as some think.
Of course we are compelled to cut the
figures because neither Willloit nor
Young figures as) high just now as
Kauff did, neither have they the
Broadway temperament' that went to
spoil Benny. St. Louis we find very
much improved in the outfield, and
you must not figure that the gfeat
showing of the Cardinal outfield last
season was false form that is a
great trio and they have reserve
strength not to be despised.
I admit frankly that I am adding
points to each of the Cardinal, out
fielders in firm belief that Hendricks
will get more out of them than they
showed that he will teach them
base ball, especially on the offensive,
they did not know.
1 Altogether the. center fielding
situation in the two leagues is the
healthiest it has been in a long time.
In the next article we will figure
the right fielders; weaker by far in
attack, but essential, and thus com
plete the study of the regular posi
tions. (Copyrighted, 1U, by tha Ball Syndicate,

Silber Writes Tribute
To Mason & Hamlin Piano
Sidney, Silber, recently elected
president of the Nebraska Music
Teachers' association - and one of
America's foremost musicians, art
ists and educators, has written to A.
Hospe a letter of thanks for the
courtesies extended to him by, that
company on his visit here and con
cludes with r "I desire to remind you
that my loyalty to nd preference of
the Mason & Hamilton, piano remain
unshakeable. As I have said before,
I cannot conceive of any piano better
meeting the severest demands of an
artist than the Mason & Hamlin. It
was again an inspiration to use it at
my recital, as it has been in the past.
I intend to use this piano exclusively
in the future." Mr. Hospe says that
the artist has had numerous financial
offers to use other American pianos,
but has consistently refused them all.

feature, "that do not know the joy
and thrill of baby voices, baby ntics
and baby love. And there are many
little, helpless babies who deserve a
good home and the care, attention
and guidance and foster parents. It
was with this in mind that we ar
ranged for this feature, believing many
more will have the opportunity of
seeing how cute .and deserving are
these little tots of good homes."

perience in the packing industry.
SOUTH SIDE
SOUTH SIDE SENDS
CROWDS TO PARADE
Estimated Six Thousand Per
sons Marched in Liberty
Demonstration; Streets
Deserted for Tine.
South Side was well represented in
the big Liberty parade yesterday
afternoon. All business was prJc
tically suspended for three hours, and
the streets had much the appearance
of a "deserted village." One might
have imagined that a warning had
been given of a boclic air raid and
the populace had sought shelter in
doors. Before noon every northbound
street car was loaded to capacity
carrying those who were to march
and spectators to' the scene of the
"big doings" uptown.
It is estimated that 6,000 South
Siders marched in the parade, and
many more thousands were there as
spectators. , All the big industries--the
packing houses, stock yards,
stock exchange, etfc., declared a half
holiday and turned out en masse to
witness the greatest patriotic pageant
Omaha has ever seen.
Five hundred marchers from the
Live 'Stock exchange, 300 from the
Traders' exchange, 400 from the
Stock Yards, and several thousand
more men, women and children from
ail walks of life formed the sixth
section of the second division.
Not until long toward 5 o'clock,
when the long lines of street cars
and automobiles dislodged weary but
happy-faced crowds returning to their
homes, did the streets again take on
the animation of a live, hustling city.
DANIELS GIVES
NAVAL SECRETS.
IN LOANADDRESS
Cleveland, O., April 7. A great
fleet of American warships number
ing more than 150 vessels and includ
ing, in addition to the far-famed
destroyers, battleships, cruisers, sub
marines, gunboats, coast guard cut
ters, converted yachts, $ugs and other
auxiliaries is operating in the war
zone.- '
Manning this ieet and the many
small submarine chasers, which are
not reckoned in the total and doing
duty on air patrol, water supply sta
tions ashore are 35,000 men.
These hitherto carefully guarded
facts were disclosed here by Secre
tary Daniels in an address at a cele
bration marking the opening of the
third liberty loan campaign. Mr.
Daniels said that while he was not at
liberty to tell the toll the fleet has
taken of submarines, the nation could
"rest assured that. our forces have
inflicted telling losses up'on the en
emy." f
"As an instance of naval activity,"
said the secretary, "I may cite the
work of one detachment of destroy
ers for a six month period: Total
miles steamed in war areas, 1,000,000;
submarines attacked 813; single ves
sels escorted 717; convoys escorted
86; total number . of days at sea
3,600. .
Brogan Says Board All
Favors Commerce High
"Why does the proposition for
school bonds omit specific mention of
the object for which they are asked
namely, construction of the Com
mercial High?" asks a taxpayer in
a letter.
In relply Francis A.' Brogan, chair
man of the judiciary committee of the
Board of Education said: "Each mem
ber of the Board of Education is
strongly committed to the proposition
to build a new High achool ot Com
merce if the bonds should be carried
and this new high school will be
given the right-of-way and will be
completed without interruption."
On January 21 the board adopted
a resolution committing the members
to "relieve the conditions now ex
isting in the High School of Com
merce" if the bonds should be ap
proved by the voters.
Explanation is made that reference
to. the High School of Commerce is
omitted in the bond proposal on the
ballots because bond buyers are not
attracted as readjly wheu bond pro
posals contain specific reference to
the purposes for which the money is
needed.
Cheers for Patriotic
Mother and Her Child
Mrs. G. C. Thomason was the
only woman in the parade who
.pushed an infant in a baby car
riage. She was in the fraternal
section. Many cheered this
patriotic mother, who seemed
quite unaware .of, the attention
bestowed upon her.
M'ADOO CALLS ON
U. S. TO HALT HUN
LUST FOR POWER
Philadelphia, April 7. The soul of
America is uplifted; she knows her
duty and will not be afraid to perform
it," exclaimed Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo. at the conclusion
of one of the four ringing speeches
he made here today in opening the
Liberty bond campaign in the Phila
delphia federal reserve district. Mr.
McAdoo was the central figure in a
celebration in which the patriotic
spirit ran high. ;
The secretary made his first speech
at a luncheon in which he told his
hearers that it is idle to talk of peace
until America has achieved a victory
for the principles for which she
fights.
Germany, he said is the champion
of lust and dominion, and literally
seeks to enslave the world. '
"Send Me Some Funny Papers"
Is Appeal of Omaha Sammy
"Send me some funny papers 1"
That's the burden of the S. O. S. call
of Paul D. Kinney to an uncle in
Omaha. Young Kinney is a son of
Omaha, a machinist by trade, who
served part of his apprenticeship in
the Union Pacific shops here and is
now serving Uncle Sam "somewhere
at sea" as machinist's mate on the
cruiser Pittsburgh. "We are doing
our bit," he says, "to make the kaiser
eat out of our hand nd like it.' No
mention of where or how, but just
enough to keep uncle guessing. As
the letter used up 36 days on the way,
"somewhere at sea" must be consider
able distance from home. The "fun
nies" are headed in that direction.
Victor Berger Burned in
Effigy by Wisconsin Men
Janesville, Wis., April 7. Victor
Berger, socialist aspirant for the
nomination for United States sen
atorship, vas burned it) effigy in Ed
gerton tonight after more than 1,000
citizens had paraded the streets bear
ing banners inscribed:
"Be all American and back our sol
diers." Berger adherents wtfre
threatened with tar and feathers, but
were saved from violence by the in
tercession of the leaders.
Bond Drive in Eustis.
Eustis, Neb., April 7. (Special Tel
egram.) Without any ostentation or
parades or other patriotic movement,
the first day's drive jn the sale of
the third Liberty day bond netted $4,
650. Local Chairman L. P. Sorenson
is optimistic and sanguine that Eustis
will romp in under the wire with an
oversubscription. Four-minute-men
are doing excellent work in spreading
Liberty loan gossip and the reading
of late war bulletins at the movie
theater on Tuesday, Saturday and
Sundays is stimulating great interest
among those who can afford to pur
chase bonds.
Fifty Thousand in
Line, Says Col. Hersey
At least 50,000 people took
part in the parade Saturday, in
the opinion of Colonel Hersey,
commandant at Fort Omaha.
"There were at least 50,000,'
declared the colonel.
"When Omaha does a thing it
certainly is done right. I ex
pected something big when this
parade was announced, but the
reality far exceeded my ex-
pectations. It was a thrilling
sight."
