MlfCII fame and glory 1ms come te Philadelphia In big league baseball.
Allheuch the 1IUJI season Ih ever and both of our teams are cleaning
out the cellar for further occupancy In 1022, we have fcemcthltuj te be thankful
for. We wen one championship and were runner-up In another.
! The little ray of sunshine wns furnished by none ether than I-.rnle Lam
ina, the Agger Albert. Halu; been mew-bound for n few days, hrnlc went
oil an exploring expedition, n personally conducted tour through tha musty
filc, and made the startling discovery.
, "The Phils," said Krnie Impressively, "arc champions of the atiennl
league. "
i Complete and absolute silence greeted the opening chorus. The laborers
became Interested, but a creduleiin leek appeared en their faces. They
Wanted te ay something, but didn't.
"Don't get mc wrong." the flgger expert hastened te explain. "I urn
net putting unythinK ever en you. Honest, the PIiIIb were champs, and I have
the tjgger& te prove It.
' "Wint club In the National League made the greatest number of home
runn Inst season? Yeu don't knew and I will tell you. The Phils connected
with eighty-eight, which Ih live mere than the Cardinal. Perhaps the short
right Held had hemcthlng te de with It, but whatever It was, the hometown
boys kicked in with the b"st mauling mark.
k "There were many hesiers mutle in the league lest year. St. Loele had
eighty-three, the Giants sevunty-tlve, llosten sixty-one, Brooklyn flfty-nlne
and se en down the line until you get te Cincinnati. The Beds poked twenty
circuit clout in the entire season. In all, -ICO homer swere made lu the
National League.
' "And new for another surprise. The Athletics finished second te New
Yerk in homers, with eighty-three. The Yanks, lucludlng 'Babe' Ruth,
ecked a total of 134, which lu something like u record, although I can't prove
it (Until the next snowstorm. Take Babe's fifty-eight away and the A'h have
the YankB trimmed. The Browns were next te the A's with sixty-six, which
shows the superiority of the Shlbc Parkers. Kxnctly 477 homers were made
In the American, which inakea a total of 1)37 In both leagues. This 1 net
likely te happen again.
c
k
tCVOO Bad the home teams can't tctn ball games iciih these home
runs. Perhaps they have discovered the system and trill try it
this year. Anyteay, let's hope se."
t Old Timers Going Geed
TTS hard te put the old boys en the shelf. Majer leaguers who passed out
J- of the picture and landed out en the Coast last season kicked In with
some very thril'ing stuff and have come back strong. Fer example, take Duffy
Lewis. Duffy wcut te Salt Lake, played in 105 games and piled up n batting
average of .403. Net se bad for an old timer. He led the league, which Is
going peme.
Others also did some geed work. Paddy Slnglln, the old second baseman,
hit the pill ever the fence twenty-two times, winning the home-run title.
Charley See, who was shipped te Seattle by Cincinnati, get Inte forty-three
games nnd ended with a batting avrrnge of .3Jm. Old Sam Crawford net only
hit .318, but pulled n big surprise by stealing ten bases in 17." games.
"Gavvy" Crnvath ended his playing career with Snlt Lake, but had n
poed year just the same. He played lu 112 gnmes. hit .320 and socked
eighteen homers. Oavvy's legs went back en him, nnd nt the end of the bensen
he decided te devote most of his time te fishing and hunting near bis home in
Laguna Beach, Calif. If he returns te baseball again it will be an a scout or
a nen-pluying n.anager.
The Chicago Cubs purchased Hack Miller, the Oakland outfielder, nnd It
leek as If it was n ery geed purchase. Hack plnyed in 1S4 game and hit
.347. O'Connell, the $73,000 athlete secured by the Glaut.s, made seventeen
homers during the season.
Of the former Phils out there, "Snooks" McOaffigan, the little second
baseman, gained tome glory In leading the league In stolen basest. Snoeka
swiped fifty-five IcaBt year. Paul Flttery, who hurled for Pat Mernn several
years age, still Ih en the job. Paul wen twenty-five and lest fourteen games
last year, which la net se bad for a veteran.
a
nrJTJJY play 100 games nut there, and that accounts for the mai.y
home runn. .1 total of .7.W tens made, which may or may net re
flect en the caliber of pitching.
Seme Depe en Texas A. and M.
IKE ASIIBL'RN, the genial commandant of Texas Agricultural nnd Me
chanical College, of College Station. Tex., arises In righteous indlgnntlen
and takes his pen In baud te dash oil tome Information about the college
which scored that unexpected gridiron victory ever Centre in Dallas en Jan
uary H. Mr. Asliburn has something te say, and lie say It.
"Yeu probably de net remember it," he writes, "but some years nge
Hnbbard City. Tex., the birthplace of Tris Speaker, let out nn nwful howl
because the upstage papers in the Knst called It a hick town. Being that you
and your fellow Phi'udelphlans are laboring tinder some delusions an te "the

United fitatcs. Incidentally, a larger per cent of its former students nnd
graduates, proportionate te tnal number . were enrolled in the sen ice of the
country in the army or navy than nny ether college in the United States.
"I am telling you these things for your own information, se that veu

By ALEXANDEH P. CUTIIBEBTSON
Coach of the LafajHte C-ellrne Swrrr Team
In the Pennsylvania State Intcrcel-
legiate Soccer Ieague this season the
'Sng of the b ovehadthrtle mCghty Walsh that used te bet
of the forwards. There was an abun abun
dance of geed defensive players who
turned nslde the many attacks of the
opposing forwards.
-Thla can best be shown by the num
ber of low-6eerlng games nnd tie con
tests. The Lehigh and Swarthraore.
Lafayctte and Swarthraerc. Havcrfertl
nnd Lafayette, Swarthmerc and Penn
sylvania matches nil ended In tics,
while the first three were of a 1-1 score.
In addition Lehigh managed te win from
Lnfayctte 1-0.
Fer thin reason the selecting of the
halfbacks, fullbacks nnd goal keepers is
much hnrder than picking five forwards.
The men hnve been chosen for their
work throughout the entire year, and
net for one single game. The final
selection gives Lafayette Jeur Swarth Swarth Swarth
eoeo three, Pennsylvania two, and
Hnverferd nnd Lehigh one each. Thus
every team in the association Is rep
resented. Paul Star Geal
Macintosh, of Pennsylvania ; Brewer,
of Lehigh, and Paul, of Lafayctte. wcrv
the leading genl tenders. Paul had
mbre opportunity te show his ability
than the ethers and his work therefore
attracted mere attention. Paul had the
best record of the goal keepers, permit
ting but three genls te be made through
him the entire season.
Lowden, the Swarthmere captain, and
Hnlnec. of Hnverferd are given the
..ni.nMr nndHnnu hecnune of their nil-
nreund ability. Lee, the tall Lafayette
fullback from Seuth Amcrien; aicicncr
of Pennsylvania, nnd Mcner.es, of
Lehigh also played well all season.
The three hnlfback positions go te
former Northeast High Scheel athletes:
"Nick" Carter and Buss White, of
Rwnrthmere. nnd Guy Wntten. the
Lafnyetie captain. Carter nnd white
were the stnrH of the Garnet.
Watten wan the pivot of the Lafay
ette defense and attack. Watten hns
been playing soccer only a few years,
vet he has come te the firent with n
rush. Other fine halfbacks were Dob Deb
son, of Pennsylvania: Warren, of Le
high: Fecg, of Lafayette, nnd Parke,
of Haverford.

Early Fan Wonders if Dcmpsey Will, Rank
as "Greatest" When Through - ''
By GBANTLAND RICE
Gheeta Frem Yesterday
(Ed Walsh Is te be n major league
umpire this season. Ncwa Item.)
Aa you, arrayed in natty Hue,
Call out "Strike onel" or tnavbe
"Twe!"
As tnarliny voices oreiol at you,
i
I tcender if, amid the blur,
Dull memencs begin te stir .
And speak again of Days That VTcret
I wonder if you'll teem te hear
Tha echo of a rearing cheer
That halted you- in a vanisJted year?
Or if there'll come the purple dream
Of flashing curve and blinding 'team
Frem days when you were All The
Tcamt
Or if, iehen modem batsmen oleut
With savage 'swing the pill about
And there is nene te curl the rout,
If, in your dream, you'll seem te see
Stalking across the swaraca tea
'Where, far above the day's abuse,
With nnrlnnt ivheca I1O10 let loose.
The shout gees up "The Meese' The
Meese!"
""TvEMPaEY today is rated by many
L' as the greatest heavyweight Uiat
ever lived," writes Ringside, "but will
they still Btlck te thlH rnting two or
three weeks or months after he has
been knocked out?" .There will be
tlme enough te consider all this when
Dempscy'B record Is completed nnd encj
can judge the full set of werlts. There
are many who believe .thnt Dcrapsey
will still be champion eight or ten years
from new. If he is there will be little
question 'as te where he belongs In
fistic history.
Ways of the Depo
pEPLYINO te the widespread rumor
iv that Texas A. end M. was pretty
lucky te beat Centre College, W. B.
Buggies, of Dallas, has this rebuttal te
eiler :
"The team that beat Centre was
without th servlceu of cither of Its
regular fullbacks, Plnsen having
broken an unkle and Buckncr hav
ing broken n leg ft short while
before. In the first eunrtcr of
the Centre game Captain Weir also
had n leg broken, and Merris, the
qunrtereacic, was lujureu ami nan e u
taken out. By far the greatest part of
the came was played with an entire
substitute backfield. It was Texas, A.
nnd M. that had most of the luck. I
might add that meat of the football
critics have overlooked McCullough, nt
end, nnd Murrnh, in the line, two of
the finest football players of the year."
Sudden Turns
SPOUT offers cny number of striking
examples as te hew quickly the tide
can swing forward or backward unless
etcrnnl vigilance nnd effort arc hooked
together.
