Tic Stranger Tells a Funny Story to the Boys Haskins

breaks the news to the boys, explaining
that the old man thinks the Rebels are
weak on bralnwork. Atwood. the icout.

Lett alone In the hotel, he Indulges his
natural girt for talking and tells a strange
all about It. Ho explains all about the

old-time rowdy ball player ls past. The

The stranger wriggled in his seat.
"Great stuff!" he muttered under his
breath "Oh. fine!"
"Now I am going to see about my
uniform." said Haskins. "I hopo I shall
seo you at the game?"
"Oh, yes!" said the young man. "I'll
be there all right. Are you thinking ot
playing today?"
"Tho manager didn't mention that part
of It," said Haskins, "but from the busi
ness arrangements I made with his rep
resentative. I have been led to think that
ho wants me as soon as possible. Till this
afternoon, then."
After he had gone the stranger walked
Into the bar, where he held on by the rail
and laughed until he could laugh no more.
Then he asked for his key and hurried
to his room, from whence came the clat

no ono had Invited him to Join them.
From his scrutiny of tho Rebels he de
ckled that they wero "a good sort" and
a "keen bunch." From time to time ho
caught snatches of conversation from
their long table; once he was aware that
several of tho players turned to look at
him, and he blushed over his salmi.
At another tnblc he recognized his ac
quaintance of the morning. Ho seemed
to be telling a very funny story to soveral
young men, who laughed Immoderately,
and J. Arthur had an unpleasant sus
picion that they were talking about him.
When he came- down Into the lobby,
cairylng his suitcase, the old man In
troduced him to several members of the
teum.
"Shake hands with Harrington," said
he.
Tho ball players grinned nnd offered
their hands, passing him from one to tho
other. The ceremony was quite formal.
Some of them looked hard at tho yollow
tufts nbovc tho cheek bones, but every
one was most polite almost too polite.
As the bus rattled over the paving stones
tho men laughed and talked. All their
conversation vns of baseball. "Harring
ton" was Ignored and tho sensation wns
not a pleasant one.
In tho dressing room he found a locker,
cleared away some superannuated gar
ments nnd stripped quickly. The Itobels,
eyeing him surreptitiously, found no fault
with his physical equipment. Ho was
lithe, flat-nmsclcd nnd slim and trim as a
racing hull. And lie knew it that was
the worst of it ho knew It. In point of
physical perfection he wob easily the most
striking figure In tho room.
Old man Terhunc. very portly in his
uniform, dropped his hand on tho re
cruit's shoulder ns he walked across the
nelc..
"Am I going to play today?" asked tho
boy.
The old man coughed until his neck
grew ns red as a turkoy's wattles.
"No; you better limber up with tho rest
of the youngsters," said he.
Tncrn began the process ot taming the
haughty spirit. J. Arthur Haskins. who
had counted on electrifying the baseball
population without warning, was permit
ted to plav "catch" with the other prom
ising children of the team. They would
not even allow him to take his turn at
batting rractke on the first day, and this
was a bitter blow.
During the gnme J. Arthur, roosting on
tho extreme end of the bench, saw lit to
criticise the performance of "Tib" Con
key, the Rebel third baseman, and the
other raw recruits held their breath when
they heard him.
"He doesn't think fast enough." argued
J. Arthur. "He's a good fielder, though.'
Shanghai Scott, ono ot the pitchers,
overheard the remark.
"First class In baseball stand up! he
said. Some of the players laughed;
others snorted Indignantly. At the end
of the Inning Shanghai Informed Conkey
of what he had heaid.
"Iley, Tib!" said Scott. "Whiskers here
thinks you're a bonehead."
"I didn't say that," explained Haskins,
"I thought you should have run down that
man Instead of making the throw to the
plate."
Conkey's Jaw dropped.
"Well, I'll be blistered!" he said.
"You're going to teach us how to play
ball, are you? I suppose you think you
know something!"
"Shut up! You're In bad!" whispered
one of the youngsters beside Haskins.
"They'll make your life a hell on earth
if you talk back."
"J. Arthur took the warning along with
a sizzling blast of ccarcastlc comment in
which the entire infield Joined.

hla achievement In the following telegram
to E. B. Jackson, manager of the Pack

"I drove a Packard Twin Six from
Philadelphia to Pittsburgh today In 9
hours and 20 minutes elapsed time. I
checked out at the Bellevue-Stratford at
5:28 this morning and In at the Schenley
at 2:46 this afternoon, thus establishing a
new record for this difficult 301 miles of
winding and mountain road. Best pre

Ebbs In 18 Phaeton. Fastest train time,
8 hours 63 minutes. This required changing
locomotives. I made no adjustments and
had no tiro trouble."

MAIM IS ELIGIBLE
TO ROW MOR RACE
FOR PWJ)N MONDAY
Board of Stewards at .
Poughkeepsie Has Ruled
That Any Oarsman May
Compete in This Eace.
Precedent Established.
I'OUOHKEEPSIeC N T.. Juno M. Th
question raised as to the eligibility of
Marcy, who stroked Pcnn'n first eight In
last years race, rowing in the Quaker
Junior eight this yenr, has been definitely
settled. The Hoard of Stewards has an
nounced no rule barring a man from the
Junior eight who rowed on a former Var
slty crew. The enmo rule which applied
to the varsity four-oared race until It
was displaced by the Junior eights last
year applies to this race, and any oars
man la eligible. '
Courtney, the Cornell coach, raised the
Question, ns he was misinformed that
the old rule of 10 years ago, which was
applied to the Junior races held la Stay
between Columbia, Cornell nnd Pennsyl
vania, and which barred men from par
ticipating who rowed In a former -varsity
crew, was the law for this race.
Courtney therefore left Ellms and
Welles, two men who rowed In the IthacA
varsity last year, but could not make It
this senson nt home, thinking they were
ineligible for his second boat. This rule
does nbt apply to the Junior event: in
fact, any oarsman may row In this race,
and In 1304 Cornell had Eddto FOoto, a
former varsity oarsman, row In both the
four nnd eights.
Pennsylvania's three crews rowed time
trials over their respective race dis
tances this morning, the freshmen tak
ing the 'varsity on for the first two miles
and tho Juniors racing thctn for the last
two.
The freshmen , started with a three
quarters length handicap and added about
a length In the two miles, making the
distance with a fair tide back of them in
9:62, the 'vnrslty being ofnclally clocked
by Michalla at 10 even. At this point
tho junior crew got under way a length
back of tho 'varsity and soon picked
them up as Marcy kept the stroke about
31 for the full distance to SO for Shoe
maker In the first boat. At the bridge
tho two crows" got into rough water and
raised qulto a splash, but the juniors,
having the higher shell, weathered tho
waves much bettet1 than the first eight
and consequently less water.
At the end the Juniors had a good Ave
lengths on tho flrBt eight, which rowed
rather raggedly, and made tho two miles
In 9:33, The varsity did tho two in 10:01
and the four in 20:03. Hunter, No. 2 in
tho freshmen, was still out today nurs
ing his bolls, Iteukauft holding down his
seat.
Following Penn, Columbia cam) down
over tho course on a time trial which was
announced, but was most satisfactory for
Rice, ns his varsity, rowing but 23 beats
to the minute, licked the strong Juniors
by two and one-half lengths In the first
three miles. All the other crews Indulged
in light work.
