 America : Hat Trick - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Hat Trick peaked at number 28 on the album charts, faltering mainly because the songs lacked the cordial folk-rock melodies and mindful songwriting that prevailed on the earlier releases.
The rest of Hat Trick failed to garner any hits and is a slight disappointment after the success of their self-titled debut in 1972, which harbored the band's first number one hit in "A Horse With No Name," and after Homecoming, their satisfying follow-up.
The unsuccessful repercussions that evolved from Hat Trick both commercially and otherwise were not overlooked by the band, and they rebounded with 1974's Holiday, an album which yielded hits in "Tin Man" and "Lonely People," which both made Billboard's Top Five.

 The Mavens' Word of the Day
Hat trick is a term first found in the chiefly British (and British colonies, many of whose members whip the homeland's butt in international matches) sport of cricket.
While the term hat trick is used in baseball, it there refers to what is usually called "hitting for the cycle": the hitting of a single, double, triple, and home run by a single player in one game, an exceptionally rare achievement.
The main reason that the expression hat trick is common in hockey and soccer is that those sports are ones in which a player can have three notable successes in a single game and have it be a big deal.

 Questions & Answers: Hat trick
Hat trick was first recorded in print in the 1870s, but has since been widened to apply to any sport in which the person competing carries off some feat three times in quick succession, such as scoring three goals in one game of soccer.
However, it is sometimes also said that the phrase alludes to a distinctly more plebeian reward in which the bowler was permitted to take his hat around the crowd for a collection (not necessarily a bowler hat, of course: that was named after a couple of completely different chaps, Messrs Thomas and William Bowler, hatmakers).
It seems to have been the custom in the nineteenth century for such a paragon of the art to be awarded a new hat by his club as a mark of his success.

 Urban Legends Reference Pages: History (Hat Trick)
It is true that Kennedy almost never wore a hat after becoming president, but his hatlessness was much more likely the continuation of a trend that had long since begun, not its origin.
Either way, the common claim that the shunning of hats by American men began because Kennedy declined to wear one to his inauguration is flat-out wrong.
In this case that call isn't necessary, however, because the premise is flawed: Kennedy wasn't hatless at his inauguration, and we have to wonder whether all the journalists who attended the ceremony and now claim he was bare-headed were paying attention.

Although I call this "The Hat Trick, it has nothing to do with hockey and everything to do with a method for recovering downed birds in the field.
The best practice one can undertake after the bird is down, is to quickly proceed to that location and mark the spot with ones hat, as shown in the accompanying photo.
