PATENTED NOV. 21, 1905.
W. F. GUBBINS. BASE BALL BAT. APPLICATION FILED APRA, 1905.
WILLIAM F. GUBBINS, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
BASE-BALL BAT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 21, 1905.
Application filed April 4, 1905- Serial No. 2531 To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM F. GUBBINs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Base-Ball Bats, of which the following is a specification.
This invention is a base-ball bat, and has for its object to lessen the hitting of fouls by the batsman. To effect this object, a sleeve of'corrugated rubber fabric is placed upon the striking or body portion of the bat and serves to prevent the glance or angular rebound of the ball by which fouls are produced.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of a bat provided with my improvement, and Fig. 2 is a cross-section thereof.
Referring specifically to the drawings, 6 indicates the body, and 7 the handle, of an ordinary bat. The body is covered with a sleeve consisting of an inner layer of cloth known as friction-cloth, as indicated at 8, and an outer layer of corrugated rubber, (indicated at 9,) the corrugations extending lengthwise of the bat. The cloth is cemented or otherwise suitably fastened to the bat and holds the rubber firmly in place.
In the use of this bat the corrugations contact with the ball and tend to hold it from the lateral bound which causes fouls and to impel it in a straight and fair direction on a line. The knocking of fouls and high flies is thus prevented in a measure.
Although the invention as shown and described has a rubber cover, the same idea may be applied by the use of corrugated leather or other material.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A bat the striking part of which has a covering comprising an inner layer of cloth cemented to the bat and an outer layer of rubber corrugated lengthwise of the bat.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WILLIAM F. GUBBINS.

THEODORE J. KUETTLER, H. G. BATOHELOR.
