The argument for the s o'clock hours Is
that under the 9 o'clock opening It Is
necessary to have classes o Ule in the

football, baseball and crew, which re
ntilrc that th- entiro team shall work

and frequently not before 8 o'clock It

BERMUDA RACE IS
TO BE REVIVED
Seven - hundred - mile Ocean
Yacht Race to Be Staged
May 22.
There will be a revival of tho Bermuda
race this year. For various reasons this
contest, which began so well some jears
ago, fell off In popularity, and It la
thought that the rules of measurement
and tho time allowance tables were
chiefly responsible for this lack of In
terest. Under the last rules It was
claimed by owners of falr-elzed boats that
they had no chance of success against
smaller craft because the time allowance
was excessive). Under these rules tho
Philadelphia boat. Dream, won tho raca
for two successive seasons and then the
vent was abandoned Now tho rules
have been changed In taking- the horse
power of tha engines ths number of revo
lutions a minute are taken Into considera
tion, and thus the actual rating of the
engine can be figured.
During the recent New Tork inotorboat thaw
Captain Thoroat Fleming Day waa so pleased
with tha model and arrangttnantg of th
Crulsetta that ha agreed to demonstrate the
seaworthiness of that boat by taking It to
Kermuda. 1-ater. Captain Day thought It
would be a good opportunity to make a raca
and he said Tie waa will ng to race anything
under any conditions Now It has been de
ctded that the annual Bermuda raca lor tha
liennett Cup shall be revived and the Cm Is.
ette will start In that event A boat la being
built by tho .Luders Construction Company at
trfamford which also will enter, and U Is said,
that Samuel Cochran will start the Krone I.
whi:h waa built In 1010 and won the race
that year. ... , . .
Iha race it to b started from a Una off the

ATHLETICS' MASCOT
DIES SUDDENLY
Louis Van Zelst, Familiar Fig
ure for Five Years as Bat Boy
for Mackmen.
One other familiar figure, besides those
of Collins. Baker. Bender, Coomb? and
Plank, will be missed by Athletic fani
at Shlbc Park thin season nnd forever
It will be little Louis Van Zelst, famous
for five seasons past as the mascot of
tho Mackmen, who died ;.ee.terday morn
ing at the home of his parent!, 3717
Spruce street, following a four das' III
neis with a complication of diseases
The sudden denlh of Iho llttlo hunchbacked
bat boy, who was the Ahtletlcs' fetish of good
luck during the winning of four pennants nnd
three world's championships, will be a surprise
and sorrow to his baseball fan frlendh. Since
he joined the team, In the fall of IDOii, Louie
alvvaji trotted out on the field with the plav
ers. garbed In n regulation Athletio uniform,
took part In tho vvaimlng-up antics and
stooped jchlnd the plate, near the plajors"
bench, to rout tho "Jinx" and "pull" for base
hits and runs
The coming of little Louie to the Athletics
was an accident Ueforo he became mascot he
httendel all the home games and It was
ishnrtly after the opening of the seaaon In 1!)9.
while ho was perched In his regular scat above
the Athletics' dugout at Shlbo Park, that his
chance came. The "A's" had been losing too
steadily Just then to suit Mack, and It was
one aftenoon nfter their first victory In many
games that Connlo noticed little Louie rooting
lor nls team. He called him In on the diamond
and asked hlm to take care of the bats Lotila
accepted on th Jump, and from then on he
wn firmly esconced aa mascot
Hans Wagner's Place
Reports from Hot Springs regarding the de
position of Honus Wagner are conflicting One
sajs ho will he used as pinch hitter, another
that he will pla firtt base Polka who ridi
cule tho suggested plan that he play tlrst
base for the Pirates van find a. notable paral
lel to his caso In the person of Hughey Jen
nings Hughey was about the bevt shortstop
of his time when In the heydav of his
glory with the old Baltimore Orioles. Find
ing himself slipping a bit and unabl to
cover quite as much ground a.v formerly or
with his old agllltv, ho decided to try It at
first base He was almost as much of a.
success thero IVagncr, of course. Is older than
Jennings was then, but it must be remembered
that Jennings, though n star of great magni
tude, was never a Hans Wagner.
Hugh High, late of tho Detroit Tigers, has
landed the permanent berth In left field for
the New York Yankees, displacing Roy Hart
zell. There Is still a battle on tor first base,
Plpp and Mullen fighting for dear life for place
In. tho regular line-up
Paddy Slgllu. Central Association star, has
been advanced from tho anlgan Inneld to
the second-sack job of the Pirate regulars.
Blglln has hatted at a 'l(!l clip In practice
and fielded brilliantly.
Enforced Praise
New Torkcra am still talking about the race
in which Meredith ran nvvav with a field of
track artists in tho Manhattan College games.
These same New Yorkers laughed when Phila
delphia announced that she had a great athlete
several jears ago Ted liad to prove to them
thit he Wds n wonder toy trimming the whole
New York middle-distance running contingent,
not once, but many times, before they vvero
convinced Things aro different now, Ono
New York paper jesterday printed the follow
ing comment. '"Meredith ran away from
Glsslng, Caldwell and the others with ridiculous
ease." Verll, the sun do move.
IxkaI track and field athletes will hive onn
more fling before the Indoor season closes. The
Third Regiment Is to promote a set of con
tests next month which will mark the close
of the season. There will he two open 'A. A. U.
events and a big list of M. A. I., tests.
The weak-hitting .Yankees are angling for
stick artists. The nltlees wonders of Chicago
have annexed L'ddle Collins.
