lAppl icati'on filed February 11, 1-914. Serial No. sigma,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that'I, WiLi'aAmM ILRoir, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rochester, in the county of Monroe and, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Base-Ball- Game Apparatus; and I do hereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable 'others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, refer-. ence being had .to'the accompanying draw,-
ings, andto the letters and figuresofreference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification. i
This invention .relates to new and useful improvements in baseball game apparatus and the object in view is to produce a simple and efficient apparatus of this ,nature so arranged that the various plays ii'i'agame of ball. may be reproduced.
I My invention is illustrated .giii he .-accmpanying. drawings, in whichz-1- 1 7 Figure 1 's atop plan view of the apparatus. Fig. 2 is a sectionalview oi'i line. 2-2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectionon. line of Fig. 2. Fig. 4: is a sectional view. transverselythrough one corner of theframe of the apparatus. Fig. 5 is a detailed perspective view of a closure for the reception'of the ball, and Fig. 6 is a View of oneof the men which are utilized for designating different locations where the players are -posi- Reference now being had to thedetails 0f the drawings by letter, A designates a board which has-a circumferential flange A to prevent the ball from rolling off the board and at the lower corner ofthe board is a slot Bin which a plate 0 isfastened by screws C and which plate carries a pivotal pin C upon which a bar D is pivotally i mounted, one end D of which bar has its] ends bent, at right angles and apertured for thereceptionof the longitudinal'sha-ft E,
' -which latter has; a scoop-shaped-end E for the reception of the ball A coiled spring H is mounted intermediate the outer end of said angle bar and a-washer I'which is held by means of a pinI'. ,A buffer spring K is mounted 'betWeen theheadE of said shaft and the adjacentangledend-Df of said-bar D.

A movable trigger, has a(-pertured flanges Q, through which the rod passes, said trigger having-also an integral hook; head E oftheshaft E when it is desired to pullthe shaft back to put the spring H under tens on. Said trigger has a laterally extending hook Q over which one end of the coiled spring Q passes-and which spring has its free end. bridging the space Q formedin the plate forming the trigger, said spring being provided for the purpose of holding the index finger of the hand 'in said space, as shown in Fig. 1 i i Theseveral bases are designated in the drawings, the home plate by numeral 4, first base by numeral 1, second base by numeral 2, third base by numeral 3,, and inclosures,

similar spring-pressed shaft designated by letter S, with a head S at one end and said f" shaft is mounted upon a bar S pivotally. mounted upon a p votal pin S and saidbar S has an oscillating movement in a recess formed in the corner of the board, while the head thereof is adapted to have a range int'e'rmediate'the vertical partitions T which. extend out at right angles from the sides of the board. The home plate 4 is positioned l vided for the purpose of,-allowi ng th ball to roll into the inclosure but preventing the i midway between-the ends-of said partition. I
The various Inplaying'the game, batter is supposed to place the ball upon thev scoopshaped end E and, by catching the hookpart up over thehead of the shaft and pulling back upon the same, the spring Hwill be put undertensionJ A. lateral swinging movement to the trigger will release the men are designated byi'let- I shaft and the ballniay be fired toward the openingbetween the partitions T.. It is thepurpose of -the' -batter, who operates. the spring-pressed shaft with the head S. in
