Archer's squat throw made him famous. He gets the ball down to second while squattlns on his heels, saving the time lost by most catchers in straightening up to get power. The photographer snapped archer on the job In his characteristic crouch. Jimmy Archer became a great catcher through an accident.

At catching runners trying to steal or runners off base he is equally good.

The wonderful record he made while catching for the Cubs last year was due to the fact that he can throw by using simply his right arm and with- fT out hiking a standing position. Other catchers havo tried tho Archer method without success. They find they can't throw unless the entire body Is brought Into action. The time It takes to get Into an aerial position and take proper aim gives the bape runner the necessary opportunity. They have been unable to solve Archer's method.

Or. William K. Kenne, physician for the Detroit Club, explains how Archer hns acquired the ability to throw In his peculiar Btyle.

"When Archer rolled up his sleeve I noticed scar tissue extending from above the elbow to nearly the wrist. 1 asked him what had happened to him and he explained that a few years ago he was badly burned and the scar remained. "This scar tissue enables Archer to snap the ball to the Infielder.

He simply has to use his arm. The 'snap' in the tissue gives the ball tho same speed that the mnny muscles employed bfr other catchers In throwing give them. No one could consistently throw the way Archer does It. It would tire a man out In a short time." Lorry Sehufly, a former Toronto manager, and now with Newark, tells how he made his triple play unassisted. "It was the simplest thing In the world." sayB Serially, "and many a harder play is made every day by myself und many others that pans unnoticed.

I was playing with Portland at the time, and we were stneked up ngalnst the Seattle club. It was on June 14, 1904, In Portland. Walters, of the Seottle club, was on second, and Rusk Holl, who afterward played with Baltimore, was on first. Larry McLean was catching for our club and Kssiek was pitching. I was covering the keystone sack.

"With two men on bases and no one down and Big Pill Kenner next at but, the intlcld moved up, expecting a bunt. Hill was lucky nnd got two balls called on him. With our pitcher In a hole I signaled McLean for a throw to second to giit Walters off the base. F.ssirk couldn't see things that way. lie put the ball over the plate and the runners, who had been tipped off to a hit-and-run play, got a big start.

Kenner met the ball and slammed out a vicious liner just over the pitcher's head. I was on my way to cover the hag and grabbed the liner with one hand, stepped on second, forcing out Walters, and then chased Hall back nnd touched him before he reached first. That Is how the trlplo play made, jnnd the same circumstances arc llahlo to arise in every game of baseball played." C. P. R.

The trustees earnestly request that all voters who ore in favor of the bylaw will vote In order that there will not be any chance of tho same fata overtaking the bylaw as In Klldonair recently, where owing to lethargy on the part of the ratepayers, those in favor did not think It worth their while taking the trouble to vote, and the bylaw was overwhelmingly defeated, while not five per cent of the ratepayers voted. aHBanaBBanfnaannnBjBaBBjBnfaaannjannn ii ii i ocam) fSjinfifB-' Trainer of Sprinters Signed to Put Speed in Big Leaguers There'a a cud of reflection for baseball managers to chew upon In this story.
