PIAA The PIAA, District 11 Com- mittee at a meeting held in Tam- aqua, Pa. suspended Allentown High School from all competition with PIAA memberschools for two years. The committee voted that Al- lentown High had violated the eligibility rule which states that no pupil shall represent his school in athletics if he has been in at- tendance more than 8 semesters beyond the eighth grade. R. B. Stapleton, district chair- man, said the Allentown High School had the right to appeal the vedict of the district commit- tee to the State Board of Control. Robert Haas, president of the Allentown School Board, denoun- ced the action of the committee and charged that the case had been “prejudiced before the meet- ing.” Allentown won this year’s state championship by defeating Du- quesne in cage tournaments. An investigation also has been started regarding the eligibility of athletes at Bethlehem and Hazelton High Schools. Ostermuller Main Prop of Pirates Fred R. Ostermuller, pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates, who both hurls and hits left-handed, has been a main prop of the Pirates’ hurling hill as the result of an amazing comeback after being sentenced to the minors 3 years ago. Now nearly 40 years of age, he stands 5 feet, 11 inches, and hits the seales at 175 pounds. He was adjudged ‘washed up” when the Dodgers gave him a ticket to Sy- racuse on May 31, 1944, but the] Pirates got busy and bought him one day later. During the remain- der of that season “Osty’” won 11 games and lost 7 for Pittsburgh, and several of his defeats were heartbreakers. He was inducted in the Army in May of '45 and dis- charged in August of the same years, and his record for the sea- son was 5 victories as against 4 defeats. In 1946 he won 13 games while losing 10, and pitched 16 complete games out of 25 starts, including 2 shutouts. Ostermuller has been pitching professionally since starting with Quincy in 1926. * ATTENTION MANAGERS Baseball managers are asked to contact this paper for forms to fill out when reporting games to us.

THiS SEASON BUT HE'S STARTING OUT 10 PROVE DIFFERENTLY Note, Would-Be Umpires! Bill Klem Is Giving Advice Gives Answer for Player Who Talks of Fighting Out of his years of experience, chief of staff of National League Umpires, Bill Klem, has drawn up a set of tips on good umpiring. His suggestions follow: “Regardless of what happened yesterday, when going on the field through or close to the bench, al- ways give the players the time of day by saying, ‘How are you boys’ and keep on going. “Remember you are umpiring for the baseball only and it must be done in a businesslike manner in order to establish yourself. “Be in stride on every pitch. This erables you to have confi- dence and get set to time and to judge a play as well as to be ahead of anything that may hap- pen. “When umpiring back of the plate, after the third out, turn quickly to the club taking field and shout ‘All right, let's go,’ and just as quickly take your position, which is from 25 feet to 35 feet back of the plate. “Stay away from the huddle when the manager is changing players. When you think they've had ample time to solve their problem, command from your po- sition, ‘All right, let’s go!’ By get- ting even close to the huddle an umpire lays himself open to sar- casm. “Never talk fight or use bad language. No fighting umpire ever established himself. “The answer to a player talking fight is ‘Are you a fighter, too? I thought you were a ball player.’ “When convenient to do so, al- ways look away from a player af- ter calling him out. Should he turn to argue, walk away. Also lo.k away after calling a strike. “Don't go to the bench when it becomes necessary to order a play- er or manager off. When you do vou lay yourself open to heaps of arguments.

If manager or captain is among them, which is practicaliv always the case, say, ‘T'll talk tc you.” Explain to him and say ‘All right, let’s go!’ “Walk away from arguments and kesp on walking. If he, or they follow, they ara guilty and it is up to you to use your authority. “Be very careful about calling ‘Time’ when you're a base umpire. Once the pitcher is set it is best to let the pitch go through. The rules govern anything that might happen. When you do call time, be sure the plate umpire or the pitcher sees you. “Don’t run two or three steps ut first base when a pitcher tries to catch a runner off. Straddle the toul line and when the ball comes over, take just one step on fair ground and croutch. “The finest curled hair shoulli always be used for a protector, and shin guards should be extra well padded. “When a fair or foul hit ball is ciose to the line, demonstrate very quickly by pumping with arm and the other umpire shculd also de- note as quickly as possible what he called it in a like manner. Should the spot where it hit be near you, point with finger and shout, ‘That's a fair (or foul) ball’. The reason for this demonstration is to correct a player or anybody's mind that it is or might be pre- judiced. plate and bases are white and ir goil is damp and they become dis- colored, call on the groundkeeper to whiten them as often as necess- ary. Pay strict attention to this, especially in resuming play after rain. You may think it O. K. be- cause you are only a few feet aw- ay, but spectators, who are a long distance from it, appreciate this act immensely. It is a ‘hazard’ for an umpire to time and judge close plays when the bags are nol white. “It has long since been proven in a positive way that the best way to judge a ball or strike is {rom a croutch position between the catcher and the batsman, with a weave or an up and down move- ment as the ball comes to the cai- cher. “Please be reminded that w= have a Special and Strict rule per- taining to any player, coacher or manager coming from his position | or from the bench to argue (or {held up the game) with the Um- | pire-in-Chief over a called ball or | strike.” | On July 24, 1946, an innovation | has taken place in the National League as follows: When the | groundskeepers appear ten min- utes before game time to arrangz the pitcher's mound and batter's | box, they bring a fresh and dry “Always see to it that the home | You are entitled to enjoy BIG-CAR QUALITY AT LOWEST COST «+ « and only Chevrolet offers it!

Your Health... From the Medical Society of Pennsylvania and the Cambria Co. Medical Society Some call it dermatophytosis, but most persons call it athlete's foot. Such a form of ringmorm af- fects from 50 to 90 percent of the population at some time dur- ing their lives. Frequently its presence is triv- ial, and the patient is unaware of the infection. In other cases is assumes sev- ere and disabling proportions. In order to prevent athlete's foot, one should keep the feet clean and dry. The condition is contagious and the germ causing it may remain alive for a long time in rubber mats, wooden floors and articles of wearing apparel. Athlete's foot is usually picked | lup in public places where the bare feet are exposed — such as swimming pools, gymnasiums and shower baths. Excessive sweating, heat and friction add to the possibility of infection. | Some persons are more suscep- | tible than others and there is a; variance in reaction. | Persons who have sweating feet | should wear socks that can be boiled and changed daily.
