The Altoona hurler-battei 1 Was hit with the ball and he was waved to his base, but nobody i could tell what Became of the ball.that hit th6 batter. Grove ambled to first sack and as he was donning his coat before becoming a runner, he reached inside his blouse.

Out came the baseball with which he Was struck. The apple was handed to Dewey -Logue and the question of another "lost" ball was solved. Friend of Schoolboy athletes in Altoona, High will regret the loss of- Professor John P. Lozo ae assistant principal at tho maroon and white. Mr.

Lozo. goes to Reading High as principal during the' next school term. Mr. Lozo came to Altoona. some few years ago.

He was a popular schoolman. Ho was interested In athletics and displayed a real help In furthering the athletic prestige of the maroon and white. He Is just the'kind of a principal that Altoona High long desired, one who favored athletics along with other school duties. The assistant principal was a regular attendant -at all Altoona High games a.nd never missed the animal track and field championships of the No. 0 district.

Altoona High needs a principal favorable to spdrts, and Mr. Lozo's place will be hard to fill. He will be missed by all athletically Inclined students. Willie all Altoona hates to see him go, his friends are glad to learn of his advancement, his selection at Reading being a tribute to his unusual ability.

The battle at this time has a lot of bearing on the 1626 Roaring Spring has dropped from the top rung due to recent reverses, while Claysburg la in the midst Of a winning streak.

And a Claysburg win tomorrow will very nearly mean a Brlcktown pennant. Claysburg holds B- decision already this seasoiv and tomorrow's game will be close, also. And the crowd will be enormous. Things Vou.Should Know Roaring Spring and Claysburg have played 25 games since they joined the Blair county league eleven years ago and Claysburg holds the margin of victories even though Roaring Spring won. tjie' mbst pennants.

Folks who follow the MidUle Atlantic Baseball league don't quite believe that Jcannette lost to the Altoona Works In Altoona this week and the Mid- Atlantic fans don't believe it possible for Altoona to have a. team good enough to beat the minor leaguers but it happened Just the same. The July 4 holiday Is past and now the next vacation date is Labor day, if. that means anything. The Fourth sure was busy enough for everybody.

If Ernie Slrclght, Penn Central hurler, could be used twice weekly as a hurler he would have a remarkable season record. He works only once every few weeks and generally wins but he could stand much more work. He'has to suffer because he is with a team with too many hurlers.

With' the, Squawk about the ball again heard In the land It Is in teresting to note that major league hitters have become so powerful major league pitchers so weak that the starting hurlers are usually unable to go the route. Let's look at the record tot 478 games. There are, of course, two starting pitchers for every contest, making total of 956. Of these only 436 have come through to the last out. Thus more often than not both throwers have been removed before, the end of the game.

It Is less than a 50-50 chance that any pitcher will be in there at the finish. The mound corps of only twd clubs in the National league have been keep- Ing above a. .860 percentage in staying nine Innings. Those are the St. Louis Cardinals and the Boston Braves and In the of the Braves It doesn't mean anything except that Fuchs has left his hurlers in the box because he couldn't hope to gain by-a change.

There are three in the American league, the Athletics, Tigers and Red Sox. We arc Inclined to doubt any theory that the tosscrs have become suddenly Inefficient, The cause of this imper inanency of pitchers may well be tha jack-rabbit ball. Incidentally it is Interesting to noto that fewer starting pitchers finish In the -National league than in the American league and it is from the National leaigue cities most of the criticism of the lively bail Is heard. Science Works Another Wonder: A London business man 'with a. passion for tennis has come to the aid ot those players who cannot keep their shirts in during strenuous match.

The business man, Leon E. Eeman, has designed a. one-piece tennis Intended to guarantee comfort and prevent embarrassment. The garment buttons up the front and has an open collar. With the addition of a belt, it looks but-little different from the-usual costume.

This Just goes to show how wonderful is science and invention. Tho ground Is not yet thoroughly covered however. WhatV NextT We believe there Is a fortune In store for those who Invent: (1) A bathing suit) that doesn't show the pronounced bulge at the mid-riff (2) An adhesive cap for Frankie Frisch. (3) A tennis bloomer that Is the least bit sightly. (4) Golf shoes guaranteed to take their owner into pits and emerge without a half-ton of sand, (5)'A fishing line that refuses to tangle In an oar-lock.

(6) Waterproof, waterproof boots. Well, they laughed at Edison ana Robert Fulton, didn't they? A I.Fudpr for the Picking a mnn to manage the Boston Braves when Judge Emil Fuchs finally decides he has had enough and elects to turn over the reins of that second- division outfit is a popular pastime these days. The Judge.keeps his opinions pretty well to himself' but it is understood that he has tried to acquire Bert Niehoff, the Giants' coach. John McGraw has been unwilling to release Bert thus far and in the midst of a hot pennant 'fight can not be blamed for his stand. The boys also argue that Frank Snyder, the whilom Giant catcher who now Is guiding the Houston club in the Texas league, has been sought by chs.

But whether that will cbftle to anything is doubtful. Those Brooklyn Fans. The gameness of the Brooklyn Rob- Hs ifl recent encounters with their neighbors across the bridge, the Slants, has earned them a lot of In one game after another the Robins spotted.their opponents a host of and' then came from behind to tie it up and wlnt out. That takes innards. But maybe the -Brooklyn team gets Its gameness from the fans over there.

After all they take about as much punishment as any fans anywhere. 1fet they always manage to come back for more. Year after year turn out in such numbers as to make turnstile-greasing necessary. But such financial support Is not rewarded by the owners. The intra-club row in Brooklyn has ruined opportunities to build a good ball team.

This the Cincinnati club is floundering around the cellar and the fans in the Ohio city have stayed away in droves to display their disapproval. But no niatter how bad Brooklyn becomes there is still a sizeable attendance. It is a sad situation and there ought to be a law. C-H LEAGUETEAMS PLAYING TUESDAY The McMahon Dairy and Red Men baseball teams, deadlocked for the Cfivlc-Mercantile Baseball league championship at the end of the first cycle, will clash in a playoff game on Tuesday evening, July 9 on the Prospect hill field.

R. Aukerman of the circuit. A three game scrap Is to be featured. The second game will be staged on Thursday, July 11. If the third game Is necessary it will be played at Junlata next Friday.

A meeting of the league officers is planned this evening at the Altoona Athletic club and players to be used the second cycle will be approved.
