BASEBALL IN ENGLAND

THE "LANGUAGE" DIFFICULTIES

THAT SEVENTH INNING STRETCH

London

Pconuts and the good old seventh Inning stretch are subjects which baffle British baseball fums in their efforts to learn the sport's primer.

These rites connectert with Ameri- en's national pastime intrigue British sports writers who are brave enough to comment on base- boll.

The local season has opened with seven teams competing for the Lon- don championship,

as the or cup British prefer to call the league race.

CRICKET CIRCLES DISTURBED

Cricket leagues, especially in the north, pre disturbed about the in-

roads which baseball muy make against their traditional gentleman's Kome. Even raild protests against baseball have been made by some cricket quarters. Certain authori- ties advocate a tightening up in the standard of play to withstand any competition from baseball. Renewed cforts ure being made to usare brighter play In cricket matches.

One sports columnist in attempt- ing to explain the seventh__inning_ stretch wrote:

"Apparently, as soon as the op- posing side has completed its seven- th innings, everybody in the crowd gets

his feet, strelches, turns around and sits down again. Same the chair to walking around change one's luck at cards, 1 sup- pose."

Another writer commenting the traditional stretch which was instituted a number of years after baseball started in the 1830's stated: PEANUTS MYSTERY "This stretching business has been done over here.

"Some years ago when the Chicago White

Sux played ut Stamford Bridge in an exhibition game, a large crowd, including the King, then Prince of Wales, and George Bernard Shaw heard and obeyed the exhortation to 'stretch' given by white-clad cheer leader in front of the stand."

The practice of eating peanuts and the expression "What's a ball game without peanuts," is a mystery to the British Inn.

Peanuts are used In this country to feed a certain specie of animals at the zuo

and therefore are called "monkey nuts."

Even peanut butter which is a new food introduced into the British tehen during recent years is called "peanut spread."-United Press.
