CALLAHAN PICKS PIRATES
AS BEST OF CONTENDERS
FOR 1916NATIONAL FLAG
One More Pitcher Will Cinch Championship for
Pittsburgh This Year, Says New Leader.
Tinker Switches Infield Players
JIMMY CALLAHAN la tlm latest nnri most Rlncero contender for the tietinnnt
In the National League. The former White Sox boss, nnd now chief
buccaneer In the l'lrate en nip, boldly asserted Hint his tenm Is better than
tho others, nnd with nny kind of luck it will bo In the first division from tho
beginning until tho end of the season.
"All I need Is one more good pitcher," Cnl says, "nnd tho old ling Is ours.
With Mnmaux, Cooper, llabe Adams nnd Knnthlchner on tho firing line, tho
Pittsburgh twlrlers look better thnn nny other crop In tho league. Hut one
more good one Is needed, and I bcllcvo I have him. Just who he Is will bo
announced In n short time, and then nil will ngreo with me."
James certainly Is optimistic when he places his pennnnt hopes on one
Blnglc pitcher, Identity to be divulged Inter. Also, we might go so far as to
suggest that the pitcher must be a wonder. However, tho grnndolddopo Is
very uncertain at this time of the year,
aro saved up lor nuuis to lie used
If Callahan can dope out tho relative strength of the other seven clubs
In the league he Is a wonder. It Is harder than ever to get a lino on tho
teams nt this time, ns the numerous changes that will be mado through tho
acquisition of Federal League plnycrs nnd the trades, which liavo or will be
made, will place the teams In tho "unknown" class.
Pittsburgh might Ikivo the goods at this writing, but the same Is true of
tho Cubs, the Giants and other clubs In tho league. As for Jlmmle's new
pitcher well, let's wait and sec who he
Tinker Will Appear at Shortstop
Joe Tinker has chnnged his Infield again. The latest dope, spilled by
tho famed Joseph himself, Is Hint ho
Zimmerman will be nlaved at third.

be the best second baseman In the league."
Doolan played second bnso on tho Phillies for five days in 1913 nnd made
a good showing. His speed and nblllty to get the ball away quickly made n
hit with Charley Dooln, who now predicts with Tinker that Mike will be
the sensation of the year.
Walking Backward
The world of sport Is filled with
tho world is so Interesting as freak feats and freak bets. Probably the most
unique has just come to light. A San Francisco nthletc, with considerable
walking nblllty, Patrick Hnrmon, by name. Is walking backward from his homo
on tho Pacific coast to Now York to win a bet nnmed as $20,000. Tills freak
athlete already hns reached Chicago In 184 days, nnd claims to be 35 days
ahead of his schedule. To win his bet ho must reach New York within 200
days, and he will then have covered n dlstnnce of 3900 miles.
Harmon, who Is regnrded ns the greatest backward walker In the wot Id,
, walks almost as freely backward as tho ordinary Individual does facing the
proper direction. He has a unique method of Judging his direction. He has
rigged up a short polo attached to his shoulder, and at Its end is a looking
glass, which enables him to see which way ho Is "headed."
Injury Forced Rousch to Change in Throwing
Kddlo Rousch, the Federal Leaguo outfielder signed by New York on
Tuesday, is probably tho most unique player In baseball today. Ho is re
garded as ,a greater ball player than Benny Knuff, the famous Fed outfielder,
With tho exception of one thing, and that Is his throwing nrm, and in another
season ho Is expected to surpass Kauft in this respect, and the reason is
apparent.
Only two yenrs ago Rousch broke his right arm badly, so Injuring it that
tho muscles were seriously affected, nnd he was never able to throw properly
with his right arm again. Such an accident would have put most men out
of baseball, but Kousch Is mado of sterner stuff. He nt once set to work
to learn throwing with his left ni-m. Ho had never even tried tho exnerlmont.
ifi- bo tho task was monumental.
He lost almost a whole season, but he stuck to his task and can throw
now nearly as well as the ordinary outfielder, and Is gradually getting
strength In tho nrm. But for tho fact that Kauff'ls un exceptional thrower,
Rousch would now bo regarded as the better man.
Many A. A. U. Sports Arc Scheduled
According to tho official announcement of tho Amateur Athletic Union, this
city is in for some activities during tho next two months. As this body con
trols swimming ns well as other kinds of athletics, the list contains many athletic
competitions. Tho first event staged hero under A. A. U. auspices will be tho
marathon race of the Clover Athletic Club on Washington's birthday. On Feb
ruary 24 two swimming championships will bo decided Indoor, They are tho
100-yard swim and fancy dive for women and the tho 500-yard swim and fancy
dive for men.
Tne gymnastic championships or tho .Middle Atlantic Association of tho
A. A. U. aro registered for February 26, while on March 4 the swimming cham
pionships for women will be staged at the Germantown Y. M. C. A. On March
11 the Meadowbrook Club will hold its annual Indoor meet nt the Convention
Hall. This contest will attract leading track and field athletes of the Fast.
On March 18 tho Philadelphia Swimming Club will stage Its Indoor cham
pionships, while on April 1 the Freelnnd Athletic Club will hold a cross country
run. On April 15 another set of swimming contests will be decided at tho CJer
mantown Y. M. C. A., this bringing to a conclusion the real season of Indoor
athletics under tho A. A. U. auspices.
Name of Neil Snow Is Imperishable
Of all the men that stand out prominently in collego athletics, past as well
as the present, Nell Worthington Snow, who, during his four years at Michigan,
cornered 11 varsity letters, stands far out In tho foreground. The school whose
colors ho wore has an athletic history second to none, and the "M" meant a
world to the athlete who earned It In competition with the sturdiest and
strongest athletes in the United States.
Neil Snow, of course, has passed over to the Great Majority, but tho laurel
he won on the fields of sport still remain green out at Ann Arbor. Four times
Snow won his letter In football, four times In baseball and three times In track.
The 15th letter was his for the asking, but he treated himself to a vacation
t a time when his alma mater was not In need of his services. However
his fame already had been established sufficiently 'to give him tho unim
peachable title of the greatest all-around athlete the University of Michigan
ever had. If not the greatest In this country.
Snow entered the University of Michigan in 1898. He was only 18 years
old, but he immediately became the Bensatlon of the athletic world. He stood
S feet 1 Inch In height and weighed close to 190 pounds, but he handled himself
like a lightweight.
The recent announcement that Jonas Ingram, the former great lineman
and crew captain, now a lieutenant In tho United States Navy, had been
reappointed head coach of the Navy football eleven at Annapolis for 1916 Is
of especial Interest to Philadelphia clubmen, as Ingram spends most of 'his
lima here, is a member of the Racquet Club, and at various times has played
ball on the nine of that club In the Interclub League and also played in the
squash racquet contests at the Racquet Club.
During his career at Annapolis, Ingram, who Is a gigantic man, played a
remarkable game at tackle, and also stroked the crew, being the best oarsman
the Navy ever had. He held that position and captained the first crew that
the Navy sent to the Intercollegiate negatta at Poughkeepsle.
After bis graduation he was stationed at League Island and took an active
part In athletic sports at the Racquet Club, of which he was an Army-Navy
member. He was In command of a detachment at Vera Crur, and his athletic
propensities made him so popular that he had a hard time to get away from
Mexico.

LUCK IS FACTOR
IN GOLFING, SAYS

TRAVERS WON ON FLUKE
By GRANTLAND RICE
What part does luck play In golf?
The keenest nnnlyst of the nge could
never figure this out to any set percent
nge, although luck Is always a factor
one way or another.
One bad nhot may roll within two
feet of n bunker and ston for nn easy
pitch to the nrcen. A better shot may
I ram Its way Into the c-ind and bring on
. untold anguish: also Innumerable strokes..
In big llclilf. where bo many nrc nboiit
i evenly matched, the winning golfer must
; certainly linvc his slmro of the luck,
HICK,
o than
, Often he will get Just a trifle more than
his share. Hut those who lire always
claiming that luck has won for thlK or
that entry forget thin nddenduui that
tuck to win must nleo be backed by skill
and pluck. Hnw luck nlonc never won
n championship or a tournament of first
class.
McNnmarn's Theory
I A ccrtn'n Western golf writer charged
1 Jcny Tinvers with being lucky" nt
Daltusrot last .tunc. Wo put the matter
mi In Tnminv .MnN'niiiiita. the star home
bred, who finished one slioke back of
.lorry and who had the most consistent
I record of the year.
"Anv mail," said Tommy, "who wins
a cliPinplonohlp Is bound to have the
luck Ids wnv. Hut luck Isn't nil of It.
I Kvcll Willi the lllclt tllC Willlier llltlst 1)0
' I'luylmf fine golf, which mcani showing
, Mmlsun Hk)1 muI ,muaual nervo undo.'
i fire. Take the enso of Tinvers. Many
mvo sn Id t nit Jerry was hick) ni mi-
lOtti hole that nfternoon, where he sliced
his drive out of bounds hooked his sec
ond to the rough nnd then got a par
four. There was fcne luck to this four,
of course. He would have been very well
(ntlslled with a live. Hut don't foiget
i this part of It after Travers, under n
I heavy ."train, had wasted one shot and
i half spoiled another. In place of losing
i lih head or quitting he still stuck to tho
i guns His third shot from tho routtli
of that was luck. But more of it was
nerve and skill. No half-hearted or dis
couraged stroke would have over brought
any such .'eward.
Luck Counts
"I.uck counts, of course." said McNa-mat-a.
"A woman, for example, may be
putting well nnd have putt after putt
from S to 13 feet away from the rim of
the cup or Just ,llp by or roll In and pop
out. On one day few of these will stick
On nnother day most of them will keep
dropping In. On one day shots to the
rough will have n good chnnec for re
coveiy. On nnother dny they will all be
almost Impossible.
"Hut It you will notice," continued Mc
Nnmara. "the man who Is playing well
always seems to hnvo tho best of the
luck. This Is because he can tnko advan
tage of his good luck nnd stand up under
a bad break. Hut If n golfer Is playing
badly ho Is soon discouraged by anything
that bleaks against him."
Luck and Otherwise
Tom Shcimim enrt claim his share of
hnrd luck In his match with Bob Gnrdner
at Detroit. At the fourth holo Sherman
was 2 up At the llfth Shciman had i
2-foot putt lor a half and bumped Into
a dead stymie. At the sixth he had a
bine two anil Gardner holed out In one.
the llr.st tlmo this tilck wns ever done In
ii championship In America. At the sev
enth hob- Sherman hnd nnother 2-foot
putt for a half, and again a dead stymie
cost him th" hol. Under normal condi
tions Shorinnn would have won one holo
and lriled tho other two. Ho would have
been 3 up nl the eighth. As It was, ho
was I down. He wns finally beaten, 2 up
and 1 to play.
There are diffeirnt varieties of hard
luck. At Detiolt, in Ids match with Max
Mai ston. Ti avers played the last 12 holes
In par. lie was 2 up nt tho tlmo. But
Mai ston played the last 12 holes I under
par, the best matih of the meeting. No
othur smele 12-holo finish in the tourna
ment would have beaten Travero that
day. It was his bad luck to Ret against a
flnlh that would have beaten Warden or
Bey.
Break Again at Kirkby
One year ago, when tho Metropolitan
open was held at Bnglcwood, Oswald
Kirkby had a good chance to win. He
was leading the field nt tho time and
playing around 70 or better. When he
was tra cling his faHtest ho came to tho
12th hole, an easy four at 300 yards.
Klrkby's long drlvo was a trifle hooked,
took n bad kick and finally finished jam
up against a cluster of rocks. The hole
cost him eight nnd ended his chance.
Playing In the British open champion
bhip one seaBon, Ted Bay nnd Harold
Hilton both came to the last two holes
with a par three nnd a par four to win.
At the 17th hole both thumped their tee
Bhots into a trap guarding the green. And
the hams fate befell ench. Both landed
Jam up against tho bunker In a deep
heel print, whero It was Impossible to play
out In one bhot The hole cost each five
and the championship.
If you will notice from this and other
instances, most bad luck In golf follows n
bad shot. It 4s teiilom, despite the many
plaintive outcries, that a good shot Is
punished.
Brady's Misfortune
In the open championship at Baltusrol
last bummer Mike Brady was leading the
field by one stroke at the end of S3 holes.
He was then playing magnificent golf.
Coming to the eighteenth hole, he planted
a long drive down the middle, leaving an
easy pitch to the green. Just as Mike's
mauhle-nlbllck was half way down to the
ball some one only a few feet away yelled
in, litutllv MrirtL'n In fnrnt ' Tlrn.1i
shied, almost missed the ball, which trick
led away at right angles Into a deep rut
In the road. The hole cost him 6, and
through no fault of his own.
If he had been leading when he started
that afternoon no one can say what a dif
ference It would have meant in his game.
Two strokes thrown away at that point
looked to be a barrel full.
Wo once put the question to Walter
J. Travis as to what part he figured luck
to play. "About 3 per cent.," was his
reply. "For luck evens up the bad and
the good so I do not consider it a con.
trolling factor, although it may be in
some Individual match on rare occasions."

Official of Bethlehem

in National Play
PROBABLY no man in tho Eastern
Pennsylvania soccer district has mado
such a remarkable record In all depart
ments of that rapidly growing game nnd
has become so famed the country over as
II. 13. Lewis, manager of the Bethlehem
eleven, champion of the United States In
the t'Jll-1915 season and picked to repeat
again in the cup competition that Is now
in progress.
Lewis has Just been chosen a vice presi
dent of the Bethlehem Steel Company,
which means that he la a brilliant man in
other spheres than merely soccer. The
soccer men, nowever, hall the elevation
of Lewis, as they regard this ns an omen
of future success, and also tho assurance
that ho nnd that company will be behind
the sport with greater vim than ever, nnd
will struggle to keep the game in Its pres
ent state and bring more championships
to this section.
As a result of Lewis' activity and en
ergy, the Bethlehem team now has the
best boccer field In the country, Jin all
around athletic equipment that would do
credit to any university or college. Within
three seasons of his first entry Into the
sport ns a manager he had developed the
wonderful team which wop the National
Cup competition last fall. He worked as
methodically as Connie Maek In building
up his team, trying out player after
player until he found the proper units
for his combination. Ho had the patience
to work along, and finally he obtained
tho results when his team Hashed through
last year, going through the finest teams
In all sections of the country.

Has the art of boxing advanced? lias
the science and development of tho game
been carried along? Undoubtedly, most
peoplo will sny. 13ut 21 years ngo John

Can nny ono say that cither Wlllnrd or

Or that either Wlllnrd or Mornn had

If so, we'll bo much obliged to receive

RACE MAY BE HELD
James Gordon' Bennett Cup
Again to Be Big Prize
for Event
Plans nre being formulated to again
hold the Bermuda, cruiser rare, which haB
been ono of the features in tho motorboat
gnme In this vicinity and New York slnco
IKiT. For the last two years Interest In
tlio contest has died out. One of the
prima movers In back of tho project Is
Commodore J. G. ,N. Whlttnker. recently
elected chief ofllcer of tho Yachtsmen's
Club of this city.
A prominent merchant in this city, It
Is understood. Is In back of the move to
have tho race run, nnd according to rumor
he Is offering a handsome trophy besides
tho ono for which the cruisers raced In
former years, that being the James Gor
don Bennett Cup. As there Is n $1000 cash
prize offered for the winning craft, tho
attraction for tho race should bo more
keen.
Slnco the start of tho race nlno years
aKo six races have been held. In 1911,
1911 and last season no races were con
ducted, although an nttempt wns made
to run tho ovent in 1911. That year the
contest was scheduled and a number of
prominent boats from various sections of
tho country were entered. Up to almost
the day of the start of the race the Inter
est was nt white heat. Then for some
unknown reason tho contest wns called
off. Last season Intoicst was nil.
Probably ono of tho icnsons which killed
the Intei est In this long dlstnnce raco
was the weather encountered by tho boats
In tho raco held In 1913. Tho Dream,
owned by Commodore Chnrles Lagen, of
the Yachtsmen's Club, after encountering
heavy storms on reaching the Gulf Stream
went nwny out of her course, ulthough
sho managed to come In a winner. The
