EVENING PUBLIC IEDGEBr-PHILADELPHlA, PEIDAY
BARLEYCORN RETIRES
UNBEATEN CHAMPION
' ' s
His List of Knockouts Would Fill Ten Million Volumes.
He Passes On Without Finding an Opponent
Who Could Go Full Distance
By GHANTLAND KICK
(Cowrtoht, 1010, all rloMs reserved) V
JoJih Barleycorn January 16
You have come to the. end of the highway, Traveler,
Here where the Last Inn waits;
You have turned at last from the byway, Traveler,
In through the Twilight Gates;
And we who know that your drcavi is dead
Shall lift one cup where tho wiifc is still red, v
To one who has only gone ahead
' Through lines of the phantom fates.
You have come to the cjid of the Long Road, Traveler,
Here where the stars gleam pale;
And there's never a chance it's tho wrong road, Traveler,
Winding beyond the valo;
Time marks each entry when he's due;
All things must pass so why not youf '
Here's one last cup of the ancient brew
Till we, too, come to the trail.
J
OIIN BARLBrCORN is tho only
champion on record who retires un
beaten. He retired under pressure, it is
true, but lie retired without finding an
opponent who could stick with him nud
go the full route. His list of knock
outs would fill 9,000,000 or 10,000,000
volume?, printed iipon thin paper. What
a kick he had when he was in the pink !
W".1
mnnn do they all go? Well, there's
flabby Street, who first caught
Walter Johnson, and who in addition
,, fi,p first man to handle a ball tossed
from the Washington Monument. It has
been more than a day or two since
Gabby's name was heard in big league
circles, but ho is busy now gathering
talent to handle the Suffolk club of the
Virginia League. By wandering off the
beaten trail yon can stumble over many
an old itar still plugging away at the
tame, now far removed from the head
line and the welcome roar of the big
league ciowd.
One by Ono
THE minors never caught Hans Wag
ner and j on say they will neer
catch Ty Cobb and Walter Johnson,
Perhaps not. But at the finish they
caught Napoleon Lajoic, Bill Bradley,
Art Devlin, Chief Bender, and a few
more whose names will not be forgotten
very toon.
Have You Felt It?
THREE-CORNERED hunch seems
be in the process of dcvolonment
that quite a number of folks are soon
going to ue aoie to stand up under a
day wherein the financial arrangements
of the Dcmp'-ey-Carpentier contest are

TAD JONES WELCOMED AT ELI
Yale
News Pleased With Return of
Head Football Coach
New Haven, Conn., Jan. 1G. In
forming the Yale undergraduate body
that T. A. D. .Tones would return as
head football coach, the Yale News
today said :
"The University welcomes back the
creator of Captain Black's great 101G
team and the famous Exeter teams of
1013, 10M and 1015. with open arms."
Tho News, fuithcr mini j zing the
(hango. said:
"This change will enable Doctor
Sharpc to fous entire attention on
directing Ynlo's general athletic pol
icy, 'More men engaged in athletics
and a place on a team for every Yale
man.' This was the original concep
tion of Doctor Sharpe's position as
director. "

IT MAY be a severe strain at first not

Dcscamps, but time will help to cute

"Looking at the Ball"
THOSE who still fail to appreciate the
necessity of looking at the ball in
golf, tennis or baseball, at the moment
of impact, might consider the case of
lied Roberts, of Center College, in the
Wc-it Virginia game.
Roberts was standing on his own five
ard line on the fourth down. The sig
nal, of course, was for a kick. In his
eagerness to see just w here the ball was!
going after leaving his foot, Roberts
lifted his head just before nlaking the
punt. The Jesuit was that he missed the
ball all together, one of the rare times
this peculiar play ever came up in any
football game.
L0OKIXG at the ball isn't a necessity
that belongs to golf alone. One of the
main icasons that count for Yaller
Johnson's success rests in hts ability to
pat moir speed upon the ball than the
human eye can follow.
THERE is always n keen eagerness to
see where a ball is going after
you have hit it, whether at golf, tennis
or baseball. The result is a sudden lift
ing of the head before the blow has been

From tho appearance of the new row
ing machine thnt Coach Wright in
stalled yesterdny for use in the trniinsc
of Penn's oarsmen, all that will be
necpssnry to nsiiire the thrills of actual
outdoor rowing is the hplah. Tho new
machine nro singular in thut ecn the
blades of tho onrs arc there. The oars
men will no longer be able to fool the
observing Canadian tutor by not "skim
ming the water" properly, ns can be
readily done with the old tjpe of ma
chine. From a mechanical point of view the
principle of the old machines of hy
draulic pressure to serve as resistance
is substituted in the new Kcarns ma
chine by a brakeband attachment simi
lar to the article of like name familiar
to nutoists. Two leather btraps pcrfrfrm
the function of n band, and when the
oarsman' pulls heftily nn his oar friction
sets in which cnuses the leather straps
to tighten and create a resistance to the
efforts of tho man.
In speaking of the relative merits
of the two machines, Coach Wright
stated: Tlie Ivenrns mac line in with
out an equal ; it is iibtd considerably in
Canada and to some extent m the JJu
luth Boat Club. The princinle advan
tage of the new type, in addition to the
presence of the 'blade, is its similarity
to a shell, particularly in the relation
of the seat to the foot rest, which gives
a wider range to the benefits to be ac
quired from the indoor practice. The
new man wi,ll be in a better position to
familiarize himself with actual river
rowing when the outdoor training be
gins this spring."
The four new machines complete
Coach Wright's oiiginal plans of having
two eights in the rowing room. Some
fourteen full crews wcrk on the .ma

That was the thought foremost in our mind when we submitted
our plans to he Government. We wanted to be the leaders and do
something big and get out of the beaten track of high prices so
after our plan was APPROVED BY GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
we adopted the Government plan viz 10 above cost so now, gentle
men, it's up to you. Your material support is required to maintain
this plan adopted by a firm that had courage enough to accept smaller
profits and at the same time save thousands of dollars for Philadelphia.
