RESIGNED POSITION
AS PENN'S COACH

Complete His Three-
year Contract Witn
Crews.
Vivian N'lekalls, coach of the University
ot Pennsylvania crows, has not resinned
his position, as reported, but will return
; nnd eompleto the third esr of his con
1 iract This positive statement was made
today at noon by Howard Elsenbrey,
chairman of the Bowing Committee.
"The statement that Mr. Nlckalls re
signed Is totally wrong," said Mr. niacn
brey, "Naturally, ho was much disap
pointed at the poor showing of his crews
In. tho IoUghkeepslo regatta. Ho wns
more or less worried over the outcome,
and tho day following told tho committee
that they need feel no hesitancy In tell
Ing him If they thought nny one else
could flit the position better. Thcro has
been the best of co-operation between Mr.
Nlcknlls and the committee and no one
Would listen to such a suggestion.
"Mr. Nlckalls has no desire to terminate
his contract, and every one connected
with rowing at Pennsylvania, Including
the members of the rowing squad, are
unanimously In fovor of him
"No one blames Klcltalls for the failure
of the Pennsylvania crew. Wo havo seen
enough of his work In tho last two years
to appreciate the fact that ho Is ono ot
the best coaches In the country. No one
could have developed a. winner with bo
many men taken out of tho boat at criti
cal momonts with sickness, Ineligibility
ond other causes."
Mr. Nlckalls IntendB to remain In the
City for most of tho summer. In addition
to coaching tho Pennsylvania oarmnen
ho Is the coach of tho Undino Boat Club.

Braves' Cause Is Now
Up to Trojan Evers
By GRANTLAND RICE
Lines to J. Evcrs
Let others ptck this star or that
A huskier wicldcr of the bnt
A swifter bloke upon the ptat
In lanJfclnfl ilfMcDafl's Greatest Sons,
Let others pick their favored ones
Who kltl off hits or bat in runs;
But where the Hearing Rabble shout
At fancy stop or iclnnlnp clout,
Both up and down and lit and out
Where Brain and Nerve both make their
plea
For triumph down the swarded lea
Old top, iou're good enough for me.
Facing a Tesreau or a Krupp
Wheie Famo toasts from the laureled
cup
Ilfce tho guy whose Head Stags Up;
I like the guv who through the gate
Qoes stalking forth to meet his rate
With red, raw Courage for n( mate.
So where the millions get their fog
Bg yelling "Chtcse" or "Atta bog"
Jig lote goes to tho King of Ttog,
Up to the Trojan
The Braes causo Is now up to tho
Trojan. No fan who saw his return last
Tuesday at tho Polo Grounds can fall to
appreciate the tremendous value he Is to
tho clan.
In four successive occasions the rally
ing Olants had tossed tho keen harpoon
Into the world's champions' quivering
flesh nnd Just ns they looked to be on
tho edge of tho Big Skid Colonel Kvers
dashed back Into the fray nnd turned the
tide.
Evers' value Is not so much a contribu
tion of base hits and great stops where
ho Is also an nthlcto of worth Bather
It Is from his excessive vitality, magnet
ism, energy and unceasing alertness and
courage which are ncer checked by de
feat. Ho Is a grand ball player nnd
something more. He Is a vital spark that
Fate has been unable to quench the soul
of a machine that only knows how to
keep on fighting.
Matty and Evcrs
Old stars aro hard to dim. On tho day
that Evers, supposed to be all In. broke
through with so much glory wo had a
brief talk wlt'n Mathewson. Matty was
another more than ono solemn prophet
had Ilgured all through, but at the first
real outbreak of summer weather he
cut back In with two victorious starts.
"My arm." said Matty, "feels every
whit as good as It ever did. I haven't
had the slightest soreness, and now that
neuritis In my left shoulder has passed
out, I can't remember when I felt more
like pitching." The return of Matty means
as much to the Giants as the return of
Evers means to the Braves. Matty has
been the main Giant factor Tor H years.
and when rne Is pitching winning ball the
entire club seems to show Improvement
an Improvement probably brought on by
renewed confidence, which happens to De
n big port of nny success.
Certainly Mathewson never looked bet
ter in his life. He still looks as young as
ho looked 10 years ago. His Judgment Is
still the rarest in baseball. Granted that
a poitlon of his speed has vanished, It,
Is Impossible to Imaglno a man who
known as much about the art of pitching
as ho does, who Is In prime physical
shape, and who has an arm that has
never known a day's soreness Is any
vvheio near the end of his career.
The Case of Plank
Take the case of Plank. Plank Is now
40 years old flvo years older than Matty.
Vet only a day or two ago Plank, nt 40,
worked ngulnst Bender, at 34, and Plank
won by the count of 2 to 0.
If Plank is still pitching fine ball at 40,
Matty, who Is as exceptional as Plank
and who Is much the same type, should
have at least four or live more years ot
first-class pitching left.
Value of the Spirit
As Is shown In the uprising of Mathew
son and Everr, It la hard to hold the fight
ing spirit down. There Is again, the case
of Travers, who was Ilgured all through
after Oulmet and Travis had beaten him
In four straight matches. Vet those who
Ilgured In this vein apparently forgot
that no man rises to the heights Travers
held without having had both skill and
courage. And no man who has skill and
courage can ever bo figured out of the
running as long as he 1b able to take the
Held In shape to play.
The game battle that teland Stanford
furnished at Poughkeepsle must stand as
one of the big achievements of the sport
ing year. The Far "Western crew wasn't
figured within 10 leagues of a flrst-cliss
showing. Yet, against almost Impossible
handicaps, the Callfornlan made one of
the gomest fights ever seen upon the
rowing waters of the Bast.
Ol.Ol
Dlr This is neither a, prediction nor a
propheoy but a statement of fact- Har
vard's victory over Vale in baseball wis
the last victory Harvard will know In
soma time. What the Yale crew began at
New London the Yale eleven will take up
at Cambridge next fall. Feroy Haugbton
la a wonder but event Haugbton i,n't
wonderful enough to build up a roaehlne
that can beat the eleven Frank Hinkoy
will carry into Boston next November.

COURTNEY TO RETIRE
AS CORNELL COACH
Rumor Has It That Jim Rice
Will Go to Ithaca Old Man
Prefers Advisory Position.
Tor about 35 years the "old man." as
Courtney Is familiarly known to all
Cornell men, has been tho rnttBtcr of the
rowing destinies of tho Ithaca university,
and In that time ho has made probably
tho most phenomenal rocord of any row
ing coach. Several times In the course
of his career at Ithaca Courtney ha3
been on tho point of retiring, but each
timo ho has reconsidered his determina
tion. In every Instance It was because
of friction, which was. however, later
smoothed over.
Other colleges havo made bids for his
sorvlces, Harvard moro often than any
othor, hut nothing has Induced Courtney
to sever his connections with Ithaca.
Only recently art offer was mado to him
to go to Harvard In on ndvlsory ca
pacity, says the New York Times.
There Is little doubt that Courtney,
who Is 68 years old, now desires to re
tire. Ho has run the gamut of success,
nnd In his remaining years would like to
bo free from the worries of coaching.
While victory has been so frequently
with the Cornell colors, Courtney has
probably seen fewer of them than any
of the others wiio havo frequented the
Highland course Ho so keenly feels the
uncertainty of tho race that ho cannot
bear to look on while hla bojs aro strug
gling In the actual competition.
His contract at Cornell has one more
year to run, but It Is understood that he
would welcome a change that might al
low him to act In nn advisory capacity.
This was true beforo ho was Injured,
and It will probably bo doubly true now.
Jim It! co, of Columbia, Is mentioned as
the most likely to go to Cornell. Bice
and Courtney have always been warm
friends, their methods are much the
same, and In ability Bice stands almost
on a par with Courtney. Ever since
Jasper T. Goodwin retired ns coach nt
Columbia Jim Bice has held the position,
and ho has, considering the material with
which he had to work on, proved n great
success. Onco he won the varsity raco
and several times ho has been only Inches
away from tho victory.
But It has not been an altogether rosy
path that Bice has had at the Morning
sldo institution. A year ago thcro was
considerable friction, and thero wero ru
mors of It this season, though denials
have been frequent. Whether Rice is free
to leave Columbia Is doubtful. Morton G.
Bogue yesterday would not say for Just
how long his services were contracted.
but he did say that next year was cov
ered and there is understood to be a re
servo clause providing for another con
tract. If, however. Rice has an offer to go
to Cornell. It la unlikely that there would
be aggressive opposition from Columbia.
While his services are appreciated and
while there would undoubtedly be an ef
fort made to hold him, tho matter would
hardly be pressed if It was Rice's wish
to leave.
To havo him stay where his heart was
not In the work would bo no particular
asset for Columbia, for the successful
coaching ot a. crew requires aa much the
enthusiasm of the man at the head as
that he be endowed with a particular
adaptability for the work through his
knowledge of rowing,
Rica receives J33O0 for his services at
Columbia, and It Cornell wants htm any
Increase which Columbia might make
would bo topped, for rowing Is probably
more ot a bobby at Ithaca, than at any
other university, ond money for 1U sup
port Is provided freely. It la said by
many that Cornell's offer Is already In
Rice's possession and that the present
year will be his last at Columbia. Court
ney has alwas expressed tho wish to
pick his successor, and no other seems
to be so logically In Una for the place
ma ufM, blto.
