M
Ruled Out of Philadelphia Title Play Because He Happens to
Know Something About Coaching Football Teams Chief
, Bender Also Victim of Clumsy Regulation.
, -
Amateurism Is the most elastic word In Us definition nod application that the
widely known Mr. Webster evtir produced. Every tlmo tho so-called amateur
tandlnpf of a given athlete Is questioned and Investigated ridiculous conclusions
are- reached and more ridiculous Judgments arc given by tho povcrsthatbe.
Recently Clcorjro II. fcrooke, coach of tho University of Pennsylvania football
team, wis entered In the golf tournament for tlje championship of Philadelphia.
Neither Brooke nor any ono clso suspected that his Btandlng ns nil amateur would
bo questioned. But It was.
After Brooko hod been allowed to enter nnd to play In the qualifying round
for the team championship, as n member of tho Philadelphia Country Club's
team, he was barred from competition In the qualifying round for the local
municipal title. Tho excuse for his disqualification was that ho accepted money
for coaching a football team. It Is truo that tho United States Golf Association
has a. rulo which forbids a plnycr entering an amateur tournament who has
received money for Instructing or participating In any sport, llenco tho local
authorities aro not to blftmo for their action In barring Brooke.
However, the absurdity of preventing n, man playing In a golf tournament
because ho knows something about football and Is nblo to convert that knowledge
Into cash Is evident to every Intelligent person. Brooko holds many amateur
titles at racquets and court tennis, yet he Is barred from playing golf. The logic
of this 13 as clear ns midnight In Pittsburgh.
Nor Is Brooke tho only victim of this amateur absurdity. Last fall Chief
Bender, formerly of tho Athletic baseball club, was barred from Competing for
the golf championship of the Aronlmlnk Country Club becauso ho received money
for pitching baseball. Tho commltteo In charge nt Aronlmlnk nllowcd Bender
to pay his cntrnnco fee and his namo was drawn In tho pairings, yet at tho last
moment ho was not allowed to play.
Tho sooner thoso In power In tho various fields of sport realize that ono
port should have no official connection with another, the cleaner will each be, and
tho higher tho standard of excellence In each sport.
Tom Thorpe Would Be Boon to Football nt Columbia
If Columbia University engages Tom Thorpo as football coach this fall, tho
New Yorkers will havo as good a" man as can be found to restore tho gridiron
game. Thorpo was one of Columbia's best players ten years ago, when tho
game was abolished by President Butler. Since then ho has dovolopcd Into a
splendid ofllclal and has boon following tho gamo closely enough to qualify as
a coach for tho modern game.
If Columbia authorities aro wlso they will not Join tho rush to engage some
gridiron star with o, national reputation and Just out of college, on tho theory
that ho can coach as well as ho played. Unfortunately, many of theso great
players provo to bo poor coaches. Thorpo was a good player In his day, though
not In the class with Harold Weeks, who played halfback when Thorpo wns In
tho lino. However, Thorpo knows tho gamo thoroughly and how to handle men,
prime requisites in a coach.
Sale of Jack Barry Was Expected
Tho Balo of Jack Barry to Boston was no surprise, as Manager Mack
had been contemplating making this movo for some time. Barry has been
one of tho game's greatest shortstops, but was unquestionably slowing up,
and Manager Slack made a wise movo when ho decided to mako tho chango
now instead of in the future, when ho would, perhaps, bo forced to tear
apart n, now combination to make this shift. Barry"B successor Is a matter
of doubt, but It Is likely that Healy, tho University of Pittsburgh lad Just
signed by Mack, will hold down tho position before long. Kopf Is now play
ing short and Is playing wonderful ball. Ho is unquestionably a great field
ing shortstop, and If ho could hit ho would havo fow superiors In major lcaguo
ranks. Manager Mack believes that Kopf will strlko his stride when the now
team Is built, and ho Is one of the few members of tho club who aro sure
to bo hero next season. Even If ho should bo forced to step out In favor
of Healy, Kopf will bo general utility man. Persons who havo seen Healy
play declare that ho Is due to bo ono of tho game's best youngsters in
another year If ho has the heart. Ho ha3 all the natural ability that goes to
make a star.
Good Business to Dispose of Barry
In view of the fact that Manager Mack Is being severely criticised In
some quarters today for selling Jack Barry, It might be well to call attention
'to a. few facts. Jack Barry has played seven yearsof major lcaguo base
ball as a star. Tho avcrago life of a star Inflelder Is about six years, and ns
Barry had shown signs of slowing up, thero Is no reason to bellovo that ho
will be a star two years h.onc.e. Local fans naturally havo a soft spot In
their hearts for Barry, who was always a hustling, fighting ball player, a
gentleman at all times and ono of the most popular ball players who over
represented this city; but tho fans should remember that few ball players
go past tho 10-year mark In major lcaguo ranks.
Mack declares that economy is not being considered In his breaking up
of the team, and ho Is probably correct. But ho Is also protecting himself
and the club. If ho had kept Barry for two moro years ho would havo been
forced to school a new man to take his place.
Thero was little chance of the Athletics malting money or finishing up
in the race this season, and it was therefore good business and good Judg
ment to tear apart and rebuild the team during a period when thero was no
chance for financial gain. If Mack had waited two moro years before making
his changes he would then bo in the same, position as he is in today, also
just at a tlmo when a winning club would mean money. Tho tall leader has
always made good for the fans, and he Is entitled to consideration now. Clvo
htm a chance before condemning him.
Schoolboy Athletes Being Developed Too Rapidly
Wonderful athletic work by schoolboys tho last season has brought out a
striking point: "Does It warrant 'pointing youngsters for athletic competition
If, in their college years, they are practically worn out physically?" It Is the
belief that young men who aro pushed too fast along In athletic training will
never equal their scholastic performances in later efforts at college.
Many brilliant scholastic performers fall utterly in collegiate competition,
and the reason Is readily understood by trainers and athletes. In the recent
schoolboy meet performances bordering on the sensational were registered.
These must be taken as a sign that the young men have been forced to their
utmost in training. This Is harmful, and the sooner the coaches of the schools
realize this the better will American athletes of the future develop. There are
exceptions to all rules, and the hard training work of the scholastic has, no
doubt, developed men who probably would never have had a chance otherwise.
As a general thing, however, young men who aro experts at 18 seldom amount
to anything at 21, when they should be In their prime.
Hard training work for the growing youth should not be outlined. Better
to have mediocre scholastic records, with all-around physical development a
development that will mean success in the college work than to have early
sensations developed with only a comparatively short period of top-notch
performances.
Cadet Teale Runs Remarkable Sprint Races.
A new athletic flguro has arisen on the sport horizon In tho person of Cadet
Teale, of the United States Military Academy, 'Who won the 100-yard dash at the
annual closed games of the West Point institution In B 4-5 seconds and the 220 In
21 3-5 seconds. When it is considered that the athlete ran on a grass-covered
track it makes his performances all the more remarkable,
New York critics do not credit his performances, but say that Teale or
any other athlete in the world could not make such time over a grass court.
They painted out that not a man in the East has won a. big event In better
than 10 seconds this year, and even Howard Drew when at his best could not
do anything like 9 4-B seconds on a grass track.
When Ted Meredith was uncovered, the experts "knocked" his performances.
It appears to be the same trouble now In the Teale case. As for Drew, this
great sprinter traveled 04-5 seconds on a slipping pebble track three times
during orle afternoon, and possibly he could do 9.4 on the grass. Teale may be
a sprinting prodigy, so why "knock."
Several unusual pitching performances were recorded In the major leagues
yesterday. Fieh, of New York, won a l-to-0 game from Jim Shaw, of Wash-
iun, in which New York made two hits, while Washington made but three.
L MeadowB. the St. Louis pitcher who wears eye-glasses, held Cincinnati
19 oae tone single and shut them out; Jack Coombs held New York to four
kite and blanked them in wiuting a pltehera' battle from Mathewson, while
Jean Dubuc broke Urban Saber's winning streak and incldentaly out dawn, the
leM of lite White Sox.
