      No matter how long I looked at a baseball, I could not figure this curve. But I had a fine tailor's tape and measured the longitudes at intervals. Luckily I had to measure less than 1/8 th of the ball.

              Wonderful, I didn't take enough notice of things when I went to school because I didn't have tuters like you fellows. Thanks from the Snow country. πŸ˜„
