Vcdncsda) It is a trick of fate that he should be pared through nil the hail
o roachlue gnu bullets and the rain of shell to fall a victim of an ailment
supposed to be well tinder the lommund of medicine
Tucker was never a great athlete,
ho jfencrnllj was civcti credit for being,
on indomitable will aud a soul that was more competitive than aggressive, lie
flayed football only one i.ar at rcniis.vlvnuia, but he competed on the wrestling
ttam twice.
It was in 10I.T that he first entered IVnn. lie came here from Harvard.
Tyhcrc he had spint one venr. lte wasn't known and he hnil little to do with
Kports until he came out for the wrestling team At that time Mike l)on..is
?H3 the big splash. The lireek was considered as strong and about) as easj to
throw as the Oitj Halt before they stnitctl to undernnue it.
After Mike plajfull tossed around mk Ii a weakling as Rob Fohvcll and
pinned his shouldeia to the mat in thuteen socoutN. he began to discover that
opponents were ns scare1 as bonded tirewater He couldn't get a sweat up
Vith three or four lightweights tugging at his arms and legs. Whenever anj
one near his own weight appeared in wrestling togs he greeted i im like a
brother Elk, and thin proi ended to dust off the mat with him.
One daj when Mike came out for his workout he noticed a chap in wrestling
clothes standing around and looking as busy as an Indian outside a cigar store
Ho was fair! heavy and the muscles on his arms and legs bulged out worse than
Low Little's no-i" Mike -jw a prospect and approached.
"Would you like to wrestle?" said Alike m wa of invitation.
"I don't know much about this game,'' the jouug chap nnsvvcictl. ' but
I'll try it '
"I promise I will not huit jou." ussuied Mike as he stepped to the 111,1 1
Thej squared off. and before Mfke knew the bout had started he was skid
ding across the room mid almo-t knocked the side out of Weiglitmin Hall when
ho struck the wall.
"No! No'" the tireek exclaimed "You must not do that. T did not
know jou weie rcael.v."
This jouug-Iooking Hercules had tackled Mike light about the Kuees and
run him across the mat until they were stopped by the wall.
THAI nas SyKcs Tucker's introduction to Penntyhama sports. Ih
couldn't throw the Greek, hut hr threw a big surprise into him
i'r7wi that time 011 Tucker aacendid m Ucd and Iilite alhlettvf.
Hard to Slop in Open
THE following fall Sykes was a candidate for the vjrsitv football team. He
wasn't thought of as a possibility for 11 regular post, until he began ripping
tip the varsity line and gaining big chunks off tackle Then he was tried as
the fullback and more than made good. Not onlj was he a good defensive man.
hut he was a Casey in the open field and he could pnut This combination
was enough to make him about the best back in college
Sjkes wasn't a speed demon. He was n trifle slow getting stalled, but
once under way be was as easy to catch as l'rwin 1'ergdoll. He had big,
powerful thighs and he depended mainly on strength to get him by tacklers.
Instead of slowing up and dodging when he approached a tackier, he would put
on speed and run over him.
I remember Tucker distinetlv 111 that Penn-Swarthmore game in 1011.
The Red aud Blue handed out one of the worst beatings ever administered the
Garnet. The score was 40-0, and Tucker had n lot to do with the high score.
Ho ran over the goal line twice for touchdowns. On one occasion he caught
the ball on the kick-off on his own o-jnrd line und he didn't stop until he had
planted the ball behind the Svvarthinore posts That 05-yard sprint is one of
th'e longest in football history.
The following winter Tucker decided to devote his time to his studies
instead of going out for wrestling, but it o happened that Mike Doiuns was
unable to wrestle in the Lehigh meet Mike was conhned to his bed with
tonsillitis and was f 01 bidden to gi apple
' Lehigh had .1 big heavyweight named Tons, who ruined every scale that
couldn't stand more than '-!50 pounds. He weighed close to 275, He was billed
as the star attraction against Mike and the Penn management didn't want to
disappoint the spectators. Tucker was hunted up and asked to compete.
g " j'"' Despite the handicap of mors than
the big boy Jlc threw iiim down scveial times, but could not pin the shoulders
df the Lehigh heavy to the mat. This is just unother example of Tucker's
Sameness.

Yale Should Have Waited
mriEODoni: Augustus dwigiit .tones, who foi tvpogi.iphic.-u ua
-I- sons is called "Tad" Jones, has decided to return to Yale next full and
coach the football team. While nothing definite lias been said as yet, it is
assumed he will work with Dr. Al Sharpe, director of athletics, and it will
be a harmonious combination.
Tor a long time it has been hinted that Jones would be back next fall, but
e,vrery time the report came out it was denied at New Haven. However, much
pressure was brought to bear by the alumni and Jones finally consented to
take another whiil at the job
Doctor Sharpe coached the team last year and lost three games. Boston
College, Princeton and Harvard spoiled the season's record, and Sharpe was
Unjustly criticized for the defeats. It was the doctor' first year at New Haven.
He had to install a new system, but they couldn't wait until next fall to sec if
the system was successful. This should have been done, inasmuch as Doctoi
fjjharpe did not accept the position until he was assured that Jones had no in
tention to return. In other words, he did not take Tad's job.
( But Jones is a very popular man, stands well with everybody and he and
Sharpe arc warm friends. In 1010 Tad returned to Yale and distinguished him
relf by scoring victories over Princeton and Harvard. The triumph over the
Crimson came after several years of defeat, and it placed Jones in the fore
most rank in Yale football circles Tad went West in 1017 when football was
i;lTcn up for the duration of the war, and found he could not leave his business
last year when the position was offered him.
JONES teas one of the greatest bascbltll and jootball stun ever turntd
out by Tale, graduating in 7!0?. Jlc coarhfd at Syracuse in W00
v and 1910. leaving there to establish a system of athletic? at the Paul
1 ing School, on the Hudson, iftcr one yinr of success at that place he
' went to Exeter, where he had winning teams for four ycuri.
h
WHEN the proposal was made at Yule at the dose of the 1010 season that
Jones be appointed university representative of athletics on the college
faculty, it was pointed out that the outstanding principles of his successful
regime in the 1010 football campaign had been:
1 Rigid medical supervision of athletics, with the elimination of every un
bound pluyer, whether injured or liable to injury or illness
Loyal support of thc athletic teams by the undergraduates, with public
reprimand of undergraduate or alumni indifference wherever detected.
1 Careful observance of the training rules, with the prompt removal from the
squad of anv player violating them
A truining code not technically 6evere, but reasonable and liberal when
compared with the traditional training system at eastern universities fifteen
years before
A bpirit of enthusiasm and an alert mental attitude by members of the
athletic squud.
k Perfect frankness in his relations with every one.
Jones will take up the vvoik next fall with the united support of Tale
alumni and undergraduates and with the good will of all Yale men. His suc
cess in 1010 is one of the brightest spots in Yale football history of the last
fifteen years.

New York Yacht Club Can't
Agree on Dates or Course, So
Compromise Is Expected
At .1 lnte hour last night the nee
committee of the Now Yoik arlit Club
was still in conference teg.irding the
proposals of Thomas I.ipton for the
America cup race. Several important
details have arisen in connection with
the race, but it is expected that befoie
the meeting adjourns evervthing will be
settled to the mutual atifaetinn of both
parties.
The fust thing to be determined is
the date of the l.ue Sir Tliomn 10
nuests June 2i as the time, which date
lis completely nt variance with inciiig
I customs over here. This request was
made probably because the Shuuuock
'IV is already on this side and the tun
ing up i.ices will theiefore begin curly .
The usual time foi the sailing of the
cup uce has not been earlier than Scp
I tember 1 in the past. In the face of
American lacing conditions the New
York acht Club committee could not
!-ce its way clear to agree to the June
,21 proposition. It is understood that
a compromise lias been leaihed and
I that the first race will be scheduled for
about August 1, or about a month be
I fore the usual starting date.
1 Manj membeis of the New oik
1 Yacht Club nrc still opposed to even
'this much of a compromise on tin
ground that the blue ubboti vac htui'
event has always been legarded as the
climax of the lacing eion Tf it be
held in curly August the rest of the
seuson may seem tame bv comparison
