NEW YORK (AP) — The re cent television shots from Bos- ton’s. Fenway Park showing the catchers giving signs to their pitchers — and the subsequent barring by commissioner Ford Frick of far-sighted cameras — have focused attention on one of baseball’s most fascinating facets —<sign stealing.

Sign stealing is as old as the

best, sign stealers baseball ever had included Eddie Collins, Chief

Bendar, George Stallings, John

McGraw, Johnny Evers and Leo Durocher. The best among the present signal thieves are Charhe Dressen, Frenk Crossetti and Paul Richards. Lb The club that picked off signs to a tremendous degree was the old Athletics of Connie Mack. Collins, Bender and. Eddie Murphy were wonders at it. Col- ling in 1912 stole six bases in @ game twice within a period of 1] days. Tt was Bender's ability to steal the rival catcher’s signs | that was responsible.
