Because the cost of LIBERAL Want Ads has remained so low, you, as a small advertiser, will have the opportunity to cash in on the tremendous reader interest and potential for profit that be- longs only to the Want Ads, ata cost that makes even the smallest transaction a profitable one.

First that you just get the habit of waiting for the ball to come where you seem toI hit it most effectively. This de- velops because when young play- ers first start, they don’t get any special training regarding learn- ing to hit the ball regardless of where it comes ‘in he strike area. He. suggests that coaches should make a point of teaching this skill. Secondly, he feels that too many players have the attitude that they will wait for the right one, be- cause the pitcher will eventually throw it. The third point he brings up is the stance. He claims that the stance of the hit- Frankie Frische, famous base- ball expert claims that “special ball” hitting is the worst fault of hitters in all types of baseball from the youngest kids up to the major leagues. By "special ball" hitting Frische referred to the ba- bit of developing a liking for a special type of delivery. He claims that many strike-outs are caused when a “special ball" hitter gets two strikes called on him because the ball didn’t come in the area he likes it and was forced to swing at the third strike regardless. This fault also makes you a set-up for a control pitcher. Frische claims that learning to hit the ball no matter where it arrives in the strike area will do more than any- thing else to improve batting avâ€" erages. Don’t Be A “Special Ball” Hitter The Sports Clinic Merchants Finance “Black Cats” Last Friday evening a meet- ing was held and the follow- ing officers were) elected â€"- President and manager, Mrs. Ralph L. Robinson; treasurer, Mr. Gibbons; secretary James Angier; coach David Barbour. TwentyJive merchants from Thornhill and district have volunteered to help finance the “Black Cats" hockey team.

Too wide a stance, for example. sets up the batter for outside cur- ves.

The fundamental that will help the average shot putter to effect the most improvement is to real- ize that it is speed that gives you distance, much more so than strength. You need strength and weight of course but it is the speed with which you use. your body and strength that makes the big difference. So when practic- ing try as hard as you can to make the complete shot put action from ‘beginning to end as quickly as you can. Keep reminding your- self that “speed means distance!" Use Plastic Bags For Application Of loe P ck As we ha e told you before the appliéation of ice to bruised areas of the body is an excellent way to speed up Nature's healing action. However, sometimes it is awkward to use ice because it is hard to‘ apply to the area concerned. Then too if you apply the ice directly to‘ the skin for any length of time it becomes quite uncomfortable and may irritate the skin.
