TTARRY DAVIS lias it-joined tlic Athletiis. The ci-onptnin. n-slstnnt
" inanngcr iiml first baseman of the Shibe l'nrk tioupc. who ipiit the game
.two jenrs ngo, decided today to linml himself n viicntinu. forget about hi lion
and steel bus ncs mill assist Connie
Si 'irk lll.tll furthrr notice. He will un
vote iniixt if his time to uplift work -uplifting
tin- drooping and wilted A's
from the dark, dismal, lonely cellar which
they Insist on occupjing.
This is the bct news the Athh'tii'H
nnd their lojnl followers hnvc heard in
some time. It menus the team will he
nt least "(l per cent more effective on the.
offense, there will h' no moie terrible,
bone-headed. Iirnlnb'ss hiiscriimiiiig. nnd
it will not take ii ilo.i'ii hits to wore one
run. Harrj will be on the job to diieet
things from tin atlilng box nt tliiid
base something Connie Mack cannot do.
With Connie on the bench and Davis on
the coaching lines, ever) thing should run
smoothly, for Harry knows his boss's
methods, thinks along the same lines
and thej are as inseparable as forty
pinochle.
Ilnrry Davis needs no introduction. He is as well known in riiihidelphin
us the liberty Hell and bis record on the baseball field speaks for itself. He
is a lojul friend mid an ardent booster of the American League t lubs nnd
Klvvnys is ready to lend a helping hand. Unwball no longer Is a menus of llvc-
lihood for him. He has a piop"riug business in tl it, has made lots of
money and will make more; but when he learned that Connie Mark was hning
ft hard time of it, and theie was no one m the club who could lend a helping
hand, lie arranged his affairs o he lould be absent pint of the summer and
t told Connie to cull t"i him any old time. Connie called, nnd Davis will begin
work next Thuisd.iy.
The presence of Davis on the field does not mean that the Athletics will
become a pennant contender and win all of the games, but they will be a more
formidable aggregation. No one knows how weak the dub has been when men
got on base been u so of poor coaching. That was n big hnudicnp to overcome,
for in these modern times the eonohcr is one of the most important men on the
ball club, .lust look over the nrnt) of talent in the American I.cngue. When
"Washington is here, (iriflith, Mcl'iide and Nick Altinck me on the lines. New
"ork lias' Ililgginsi, Juik Harry woiks for Iloston, I.ee l'ohl for Clcw'hind,
Hughey Jennings for Detroit. Kid (ilcnsnu for Chicago and Jimmy Ilurke
for St. I.oilis. Connie generally uses a collide of green pitthrrs.

Harry Davis Is a Great Sivipcr of Signals
TT IS said that Hurry Daio was icsponslbie. in a great measure, for the
" bliccess of the Athletics when the were winning pennants, world's chuni
'plonships and things like that. Hery hatter depended upon him when nt
the. plate, and his advice made social ."00 hitteis. Harrj could stand at
third base and swipe ncnrl ever sign that was pulled by the opposition. Then
Be would pass it on to the butter and hitting was made much easier.
A batter lins a big advantage if lie knows what kind of a ball he is goiug
to get. If he gets set for a fast one or a eune, the pitcher is licked before
he starts. Jt must be remembered, howee,r, that this is peifeotly legal nnd
there is nothing underhanded about it. If nn opponent c.in diagnose the other
fellow's s'gnals, it is his privilege' to take advantage of it.
Harry could tell what kind of a ball the pitcher was about to throw by
Watching his hand and noting the vvn he was holding the sphere. Davis
tlicn would shout something at the batter and certain words meant a certain
kind of a pitch. His information was lorrect most of the time and the lilts
flew thick and fast. It is said he was the originator of that style of coaching.
Now, however, ever body is using it. ljeincmber the last Washington
scriesV Well, (iriflith used that same stuff and tipped off his men on every
'pilch. That's how the A'n happened to be walloped so bad!, (iriff got the
Figus, warned his men as to what was coming, nnd how they did clout that
ball ' liig Jim Shaw, who can't hit the size of his lint, hammered three homers
out of four'trips to the plate. He hasn't done any hlttiug since, so we must
assume thnt foxy Clnrk has been unable to get any more advance information.

Gavvy Cravulh Uses ''Follow Through" in Batting
It a long time golf experts have tried to introduce the "follow through"
baseball, but never have they been able to get very far with it. Chick
fiviius went to the coast with the Cubs a couple of enrs ngo to show the
boys how to bash some hingles, hut his only reward was merry laughter from
'tbeplacrs. They turned down all of his .suggestions'vvltli lofty disdain.
" Hut the time lias come for golf to step in for some glory. Gavvy Cra
.vnib, who at the tender age of thirty-seven is hitting better than nny man in
either league, uses a real honest-to-goodness golf gjrlp when he grasps his
but. We saw this with our own eyes the other da.v when the slugger was
iitttiug in batting practice. He held the bat loosely, had his thumbs In n
straight line and every time he hit followed through with his swing.
"Did you ever play golf?" we asked.
"Never in my life," he replied. "Don't know nuythiiig about it."
"Then why do jou hold the bat that way?" we questioned. "You have
jour thumbs in a straight line and ou swing a bat like n golf club. Why
dp jou do it?"

Hy ItOItKUT T. PACI, -
Shortly after .the Annnpolis vnrsil
eight had clinched the colleginte row
ing championship of Amorien by hand
ing Penn Its second defeat of the sen
son on the Schuylkill river Snturday
afternoon n report was current along
Itoat House Itow that Dick Olendon,
the Middies' conch, had tutored his last
crew.
The rumor, which originated from
n semiofficial source, couldn't be denied
or affirmed, so it still is n perfectly
good rumor. 'Olendon couldn't be lo
cated, for, intend ot wniting around n
hotel lobby to receive congratulations
for the showing of his wonderful crew,
he boarded a limited back to his home
in Itoston an hour or so after the races
were over.
Praise for Olcndnn
Hill Ingram, the tali, limber, versa
tile athlete of Annapolis, wdio had the
great honor to captain the champiou
ship eight, knew nothing concerning
the retirement of Glendon, All Ing
ram nnd the other members of the
squad would say was praise for their
conch,
"All the credit for our wonderful
showing tliis season belongs to Dick
Clendon," said Captain Hill. "It wns
through his efforts (lint the Navy
cleaned up. He treated us like men
and we knew we weic men when he
got through with us.
Has Wonderful Record
"We went out on the river to bring
honor ifm! glory to the Navy and Dick
Clendon, the Grand Old Man of the
Navy. He inspired us to greater ef
forts aud we arc proud to have been
the pupils of such a splendid coach. He
has surely made u wonderful record."

NCK again the Red aud White -was
carried to a championship by the
athletes from Cornell in the nnnunl in
tercollegintes track nnd field carnival
at the Harvard Stadium on Saturday.
It was the fifth consecutive time the
college blue ribbon lias been won by
Jack Moaklcy's scholars.
Cornell's victory was not n surprise,
if such n statement is comprehensible.
After the elimination t'ri.ils of Friday
it was predicted by man that the boys
from Lake Cayugn would land the
title, but even the most ardent sup-
porteis of Moakley iul not believe me
Cornellians would win with lOVijioiuU

the first part of the twin wind-up, with

Hut through in worn and battered line the Prussian Guard came crashing,
Picked infantry to drive the icedge or gaudy Uhlans dashing
Hy shattered road and broken toien to lead thclast advance.
Was this the end of all they dreamedt Wat this the closing story,
The kaiser s "shining sieord" at last to reap its golden store!
The highway into Paris stormed Kith every Crossroad glory.
The Marseillaise a song of death, a chant of vanished Oloryt
And then they heard the tramp of feet they had not heard befoic.
They came with even, steady swing, above the rolling thunder,
A drift of khaki through the dust, young faces all a-thrill,
And as their biasing rifles tore the sudden hill asunder,
The dazed and startled Prussian saw his last and greatest blunder -As
surging lines icio "conMii' fight" came charging tip the hill.
Their crosses rest in Jlcllcau Woods, where summer cinds are blowing,
Their year-old graves arc lichen-grown where drifting shadows creep;
A year ago today their blood through youthful veins was flowing,
Hut now is red rust on their guns, where they are past all knowing
That crimson poppies bloom again above their final sleep,
A Year Ago
TODAY America is one vast carnival of sport, where after shadow her pcopU
hnve turned to piny ngiiln.
Hut n year ngo todny this June her advance legions were slogging on to
the first great test of the war, hiking by night, swinging up in trucks and
enmions, to face the fourth German offensive thnt wns crushing nearer to
Paris each tiny.
It nil seems simple enough now. Hut we wonder just how mnny this June
day n yenr ngo figured that within another twelve months they would be roister
ing nguin with the war, behind them, taking their play through "pence in the
quiet sun"?
Up and Doivn
ONE of the oulslnnding fascinations of sport is that you never can tell. So
it never pas to quit as long ns there is a fighting chance left. The once
harassed Jtrowns, around the start, lost something like ten of their first twelvo
games. They looked to be bended for the soup trough with n tremendous Im
petus imparted. They were fading through the mists.
And then, without any undue preliminaries, they suddenly whirled nnd
bagged ten out of the next twelve played.
This Ilrovvn spurt recalls to a certain extent the Giants of 101C. Starting
at home, they chopped fourteen of their first fifteen games. They were grow
ing with defeat.
Home crowds were giving them the hoarse hoot up nnd down the. lint?.
And then, without batting an eye, they left on a western trip and nailed seven
teen straight. ,
w
IIOW do you account for it! You don't, if you have followed base
XT. ball long. You take it as it comes, There is no dope in the world
that will explain any such bewildering shifts of form.
Queer Turns of the Game
THE Yanks recently made thirteen hits for sixteen bases and collected thereby
one lonely tally.
Some years ngo King Bailey pitched n no-hitgame and yet was beaten
Ti to 0. Later, n pitcher nnmed Adams (not the celebrated Habc) yielded
fourteen hits nnd yet secured a shut-out.
AXD we recall one somber afternoon watching the old Cleveland
club iii a double-header against Chicago's Ifitless Wonders get
thiily-fivc hits for fifty-two bases nnd yet lose both games.

Dundee and JaeUson
Walloping Johnny Dundee, hero of
dozens of important engagements, will
be on the same card. Dundee, the boy
who has been nglitlng mem an wuuuui
protest or complaint for the last ten
years, still is aoie inorr i
his-own with the topnotchers.
Only once iu Ills career, that by AVIl
lie- Jackson, did Dundee ever' take the
count, Henny Leonard was unable to
do it in four attempts. Dundee will
meet an opponent who uses a similar
st)le when he battles the rushing,
slam-bang Joe TipliU, Tiplltz is an-
other pleasing performer.
Willie Jackson, the only man ever to
score 'a knockout over Dundee, will en

Johnny. Willie is down to battle an

points over Pennsylvania. The absence

Mayer also won the half mile, with
Marvin Gustafson, ot Pennsylvania.

along at a much faster pace than was
necessary without tiie Pittsburgher, and
(hcrefore it is doubtful if Mayer would
have been able to repeat Iu the half.
I am not trying to detract from the
glory of Mayer's achievement in winning
botli the "440" and the "SK0." He is

As for Life
A line cast out into Jir tun,
.4)iif from all the human lore;
A icd flash where the salmon run
Through pool's and eddies off the shore;
A sudden swish a crimson gleam
Don't icake me up but let me dream.
Qr say a lone place in some hill i
Apart front all the human brood';
A rod that watts the coming thrill.
To startle Nature's solitude; i
A hooked trout in a mountain stream
Don't wale me up but let medrcam.
