Brown Preparatory cannot very well help
to win baseball games when "Bob" Mc
Kenty pitches. If Connlo Mack hasn't
already signed him up It wouldn't hurt
tho Athletics' manager to look McKenty
over, lie has tho stuff, as tho Chestnut
11111 and many other schoolboy players will
admit.
Brown beat Chestnut Hill yesterday 4
to l. nathcr. McKenty beat Chestnut Hill.
In spite of the fact that Romctsch "brought
down the house" with a catch In right
field, a one-handed grab that robbed Mc
Kenty of a two-bagger; notwithstanding
tho fact that Cramp gathered in Wlttmaier's
long lly to deep center field by making an
"ovcr-tho-feft-shoulder." catch and regard
less of Taylor's wonderful running catch,
tho Brownies won.
McKenty Is tho nnswer. He allowed only
one hit. That was Boss's single along the
third-base foul line. Tho Brownies think he
should bo credited with a no-hlt game, but
the Chestnut Hill scorer thought otherwise.
At any rate McKonty's feat was excep

According to tho Germantown Academy
boys tho St. Luke's School baseball players
thought they wero perfectly Justified In
leaving the field In tho third inning and de
faulting tho gamo to Gcrmantown Acad

coacher at third base had no right to
touch tho "Wuyno players who rounded
third on their way to tho homo plate.
Greer nays tho Wayne coacher touched
the men. Tho rulei state that a player can
not be touched'. If ho is ho la out. There
fore, St. Luke's players erred In leaving the
field. Even If tho umpire made a mistake
tn rendering such a decision the game
should havo been played and protested
later. It is a poor policy for any team to
leave the field, and schoolboys should know
better.

Johnny Tltzel, pitcher of the University

THE OLD BALL LOT HE WAS YOUNG;
AND AS VETS FADE HE, TOO, AGED
Youth Remains With Fan as Long as It Does With
' Old Stars, and When Players Pass He .
Grows Old Overnight
By GRANTLAND RICE
HL' WA
of tho
S what you n ght call a fan
o old regime, lie was a con
firmed delegate to Hooters' Itov more than
twenty years ago back wnen LaJolo and
Wagner were ju.st breaking in when big
ICd Delehanty was tearing down fences and
Wlllio Kceler was piking along around .372.
Tho first tlmo we ran across him was
back In 1905. when Mathcwson smashed all
world series records by pitching threo shut
outs In a row against one of tho hardest
hitting clubs of tho game. He was then
nearly forty and that was twelve cam
paigns ago. But ho looked to be something
under thirty.
For his demotion to sport the game that
fielongs to youth had held him young. He
was following play, and in doing so he had
forgotten to grow old.
Last spring, when he had passed fifty, he
had still forgotten that Time had been
checking off tho hours and days. Ho looked
to bo under forty.
"Old?" ho sain -Why. fifty Isn't old.
There's Hans out lliero at tony-two, biiii
showing up most of theso lnflclders around
twenty-five.
And Larry at forty looks like
a kid. Fifty may bo old ft you woric in a
bank, but it's nothing when you are out
hero In tho stands watching these kids llko
Wagner and Lajoie and Matty flop uround."
Wo saw him again a few days ago, and
we hardly knew him. He looked to bo be
yond sixty. He looked wrinkled and tired.
In a yar ho had put on over ten years. Ha
was 'looking across tho field In a listless
way. We thought nt first ho probably had
como upon some Fcrlous Illness.
"No," he said, "I haven't been sick, but
I guess I'm not as young as I thought I
was. But I never realized It until a few
days ago until I looked over the box
scores to see how Lajoie, Wagner, Kvers
and Mutty were getting along. But all I
saw was Waul and G rover and Masscy and
Schneider whore the old bunch used to
be "
"Ward and Grower and Massey and
Schneider In place of Wagner, Lajoie, Evers
anc. Matty and I had been thinking they
wero still a lot -of kids "
Snort and Youth
Sport comes iloscr than anything else
to being that fabled fountain of eternal
youth which Ponce de Leon hunted for over
a sportless waste.
This last winter at Plnehurst wo watched
two golfers leave the first tee. One was
soventy and the other was seventy-three.
But neither looked to bo a day over fifty
five. Both were tanned a healthy brown
and tho eyes of both still carried tho vital
spat k.
"I remember," remarked an oldtlmer,
"when these first started coming here, over
fifteen years ago. They looked older then
than they look today, and In everything
except years thoy were."
Tlio bun and the wind and the open
places, mixed with the spirit of play, are
the great Youth makers.
And not even three-score-ycars-and-ten
can hold them down.

The pentathlon championship on Friday
tho first day of Pennsylvania's two-day rel
lay race carnival, promises to bo ono of th
big features. All eyes of Philadelphia
will bo turned on Howard Berry, one of
tho mos famous athletes In America and
a real Philadelphia product. Berry has
won this all-around competition, emble
matic of tho collego all-round championship
of America, for tho last two years. n
will need to bo In tho best of shape, for th
entries nro tho best that havo ever been
received for such a college competition.
They contain fifteen names.
It is possible that Burke, of Wisconsin
and Thomson, two very good men, will not
bo allowed to como becauso of the war
but even without them Berry will, 'have
very hard competition. Coach Mercer, of
Swarthmoro, has been grooming another
Philadelphia boy over slnco Christmas for
this event. Ho Is Hoot, formerly of the
Friends' Central School. Hoot Is good with
tho javelin and the discus and a fair broad
Jumper. Ho should run Derry very close
In theso threo events. Coach Mercer ex
pects him to win tho discus and possibly
tho Javelin. Ho has thrown tho long spear
more than 1G0 feet in practlco. Berry also
has dono this, and It may bo that the re
sult of the contest will hinge on this event.
It Is thought that Berry will win both the
200 meters and tho 1500 meters run, though
it la said that Hoot lias shown excellent
speed for tho shorter distance.
Glllo, of Colgate will bo backed by hie
Hamilton, New York, friends to beat Berry.
Glllo is a flno all-round athlete, being espe
cially good at tho runs and tho broad Jump.
Ills chances ngnlnst Berry will depend on
his ability to throw tho discus and the
Javelin.
Jones, Dambly and Wilson, of Penn
State, havo worked faithfully for tho last
three months on this ovent. Coach Martin
pays that they aro all good men and that
ho thinks one of them will prove to bo the
winner.
In addition to these men, Ganzel, of
Bucknell; McCarthy, of Lehigh; Roberts,
of Syracuse and Crelghton, of Pennsyl
anla, nre entered.
