KAMM WAKING
RECORD AS A
SLAB ARTIST
SAN FRANCISCO, May 7 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Of the individual
players in the Pacific Coast league
who thus far have drawn attention to
themselves, probably none has re
ceived more notice than Willie Kamm
of the San Francisco club. Kamm is
only 18 years old and this is his first
season in fast company. Both his
fielding and his batting have bordered
on the sensational. His play at third
base reminded many of Oscar Vitt
when the big leaguer still was a
youngster and covered the same sack
for the Seals. Kamm covers a lot of
ground, is quick and handles himself
prettily in making his plays.
Of the veterans, much interest at
taches to Harl Maggart who is play
ing centerfield for Salt Lake City.
Maggart has been playing baseball
for many years and, in his prime, was
rated among the best players in the
coast circuit. During the last year or
two it frequently has been predicted
that his day was finished and that his
name would no longer be seen in the
box scores.
Thus far this veteran has been
quite able to hold his own with the
leading players of the league. Much
depends on whether or not Maggart
has a recurrence of his old leg
trouble. Maggart is an anomyly inas
much as he is at once one of the most
popular and once of the most unpopu
lar players in the league. His ability
and fighting spirit is admired by the
spectators while, on ocasions he dis
played the latter quality to an extent
that sets the crowd against him.

FEW ACCIDENTS OCCUR
IN UTAH COAL MINES
SALT LAKE CITY, May 7 (by As
sociated Press).—Utah coal mining
camps are unusually free from ac
cidents, acording to C. A. Allen, fed
eral inspector of mines, who recently
completed an inspection of Utah col
lieries. The low accident record is
due, according to Mr. Allen to the
fact that more sprinkling is done in
Utah collieries in proportion to their
number than in any other state in the
union, and also the fact that no shots
arc fired in any coal mine in the state
until every man working therein has
been hoisted to the surface, the shots
being electrically fired from the
surface.
Mr. Allen says that Utah colleries
were never in better condition than
they are at the present time. He
praises the conditions in the different
camps, particularly complimenting
conveniences for the miners, and
housing and sanitary conditions.
