Good sports: Teaching kids to play the right
way-
Albert Pujols stands lingering in the
batter’s box after hitting what he thinks
will be a home run.
When it becomes clear the ball he is
admiring won’t be leaving the park, Pujols,
the St. Louis Cardinals’ star first baseman,
begins to leg it out, only to be thrown out
easily at second base. It’s a poor display
of hustle from one of the most respected
players in baseball, setting a bad example
for every youth league player who likes to
mimic Pujols’ every move. |

Go behind
the scenes
at
Springfield's
Illinois
State
Museum:
It’s been
documented
that the
Kodiak bear,
a
large-bodied
subspecies
of the brown
bear, is
found only
in the
Kodiak
Archipelago,
a group of
islands
south of
Alaska.
But there’s
at least one
in
Springfield.
A mounting
of the
Kodiak bear
— albeit one
that’s
stuffed and
not alive —
stands as a
focal point
in the new
exhibition
“North to
Alaska:
Photographs
by Robert
Glenn
Ketchum with
Collections
from Aleut,
Inuit,
Koyukon, and
Tlingit
Peoples” at
the Illinois
State
Museum.
Near the
bear, which
is 8 to 9
feet tall
and could
have weighed
as much as
1,500 pounds
when alive,
a Koyukon
man’s outfit
is
displayed.
The clothing
could have
fit a man
standing
5-foot-8.
