I the' hardest workers and most conscientious ball players I havo ever seen.

Eyflrst wo years. We would tell him tho strength and weakness of every
i&suatter, but that wasn't enough. He would hang around after the gamo to
I? K . .
...jnsK more questions and put tho answers in his little dopebook. Jack was
$ha close student of baseball and a deep thinker from the first day. He took
&S- nothing for granted, and Insisted that everything should be proved. After
couple of years ho had all of tho Inside dopo and this helped him con-
K siderably frdni 11)09 to 1912.
,; "I never will forget the first time I saw Jack Coombs. He resembled
'anything but a pitcher, and had the small-town mark hanging all over him.
t his long arms napped at nis sides, ana lie wore a iook or Bewildered amaze-
gfexnent-for weeks. He never had traveled far from Colby College and his homo

fv:ilm that the opposing batters were bums and couldn't hit the ball if some
gfi., one carried It to the plate. Jack really believed It, and poor old Doc Powers,
?y-Who was catching, helped things along. Coombs blindly followed Instruc
Mtfons, refused to get rattled and emerged with a vlctoiy.

PRO INSTRUCTORS
NEEDED IN GOLF
Employment of Profes

sential, Says Chick Evans
HELPS DEVELOP 'GAME
By CHARLES (CHICK) EVANS
One of tho rather surprising things to
me about golf Is tHe number of players
who seem to doubt tho wisdom of em
ploying professionals at clubs and pub
lic courses. There Is rather a firldely
spread Idea that tho "pro" at a big
club makes a lot of money.
The public seems to figure that tb the
retainer which the club pays him the
professional adds a large Income from
lessons gien and from the sale of clubs
and other golf equipment. The sprend
of this Idea, haa caused many to feel
that tho professional is a parasite on
the golfing public. t
I know a great nany professionals,
not only In the United States and Can
ada, but abroad, but I never have met
one who by any means could be called
more than comfortably well off.
Should Have Pros
I bellee It Is highly essential to the
development of the game that every club
of any pretense nt all and every public
courso should hae a competent profes
sional ,aallable. The professionals hae
rendered not only golf, but the public
In generals big servlcebecause through
them the Interest literally of thousands
of men and women has been developed
In golf with great benefit to health.

BUSY MAKING DENIALS
Veteran Columbia Crew In
structor Has Signgd With
Three Colleges Without
Knowing It
CREW TUTORS SCARCE
By EDWIN J.pdLLOCK
SOME of these days the publlo is going
to- be fooled. It is expected that
some time between -now and next spring
a story will be nrlnted tn'thn ffv-t fhnr
Jim luce has signed to coach at "What'fl-
the-'name" college, and it will bo TRUE.
It Is scarcely likely that Jim has a
press agent at work, but some one In
New York town is -frianaglng to keepjtls
name In print. So far it has been
learned from "reliable sources" that
Coach James has Bigned with three dif
ferent colleges, and Just as many times
has It been denied.
Following are headlines which haVe
Informed the rowing public of Mr. Rice's
prospects for the coming year:
November 22 "Jim Rice .to Coach
Pacific Coast Crews."
November 23 "Rico Denfes He Will
Coach on Coast"
December 3 "Rice Will Return as
Columbia Coach."
Decomber 4 "Rice Denies He Will
Return to Columbia."
December- 16 "Rice Signs to. Coach
Cornell Crews." ' ,
December 16 "Rice Denies. He Has
SlgnedWith Cornell."
Coaches in Demand
From the above It can be learned that
James Rico Is still a free agent and
furthermore he )s about the only capable
and well-known Instructor who has no
strings attached to him. Right now he
should be In demand, for there are sev
eral colleges without crew tutors.
If rowing is to be revlved7atid there
is every reason to believe It will be,
despite the enormous cost, any college
that signs Rice should consider Itself
fortunate. His contract with Columbia
expired last spring and frcm all ap
pearances ho does not intend to return
to the Mornrngslde Heights institution.
As far as Can be ascertained Prince
ton, Harvard, Penn and Annapolis are
the only colleges which have coaches
under contracis. Perhaps neer before
In the history of the sport has such a
situation existed. Cornell," Syracuse and
Columbia, In the east, and Stanford,
Washington, and California in the west,
are without coaches.
Penn has Joe Wright under contract
and ald contract embraces i. war clause,
but it is likely that tho Red and Blue
authorities will call him even for an
Informal season. Dick Glendon is at An
napolis and is a fixture; BUI Haines
is at Harvard and John Fltzpatrlck will
care for the "Princeton odrs. In the
absence of Dr. Duncan Spaeth, who Is
expected -to return to the university
shortly.

Fred Plalsted, who was assistant to
Rice at Columbia, Is stilt on the job, but

Courtney has retired and his assistant.
Jack Collyer, is working at Hog Island
