ARE NECESSARY TO
MAKE GREA T A THLE TE
Spert That Draws Most Heavily en All These Attributes
Hardest Game te Play Boxing, Baseball and
Football Make Greatest Demands
SINCE the days of the Greek, gemes In which a ball figures have consti
tuted the principal athletic recreation of peoples of every nation.
Here In America, of the ten outstanding sports, six of them are played
With n ball baseball, tennis, foetbnll, golf, basketball and pole.
Twe games boxing and wrestling ere the ancient forms of single
combat In which each contestant seeks te vanquish his opponent In hand-t)-hnnd
battle.
The ether two rowing and running are tests of speed.
Every one of these spirts has its loyal adherents, who, naturally enough,
IIm that It demands most of Its participants.
Which really is hardfst?
Which sport requires most from these who play It?
It would probably be hard te gather u group ei ten representative sports sperts
Mn and have the majority of them agree en which was the hardest game.
There are live fundamental attributes that the great athlete must have -tamina,
muscular strength, co-ordination between eye and hand, speed, both
f brain and body, and a cool, logical thinking equipment.
Seme sports de net draw en these in the same proportion. The one that
drains most heavily en nil, it would seem, is the hardest game te play.
Running, for Instance, in either the sprints or distance drives, requires
tamina and speed and a modicum of hendwerk, but muscular strength
and co-ordination such as required in tennis or golf are net necessary.
R
01V1XG takes muscular strength, but net speed us understood by
snrnl of toot. Wrrstlina. in these decadent timci of the tee
held and brnin-S'furcsing headlock, it mere a metter of brute strength
than anything else.
Requirements of Gelf
THE successful golfer must have co-ordination In higher proportion than
any ether single element. Te thee who have never played the links
fame It may net seem te be a hnrd task te get up there en the tee and drive
a ball or te acquire the "touch" required in putting. Yet it is.
Gelf is a game of skill and requires little physical strength, as Nerman
Maxwell and a number of ether stars have proved.
Tennis is harder en a man because of the terrific pace It sets. Se is
basketball, which is a cataclysmic whirl from start te finish. Pole is perhaps
ren n keener test of co-ordination between hand and brain than is golf. It
requires dash and quick thinking, but Is net the drain en the physical
system that ether sports nr.
There are three games that demand mere of a man's body and mind than
any ethers. They are baseball, foetbnll and boxing. The first two nre compli
cated efforts of team-work as well ns indUidualiMu while the latter is raw,
sheer combat, the reversion te primal instincts.
Take the matter of co-ordination that n ring man must have. The
locating of an opening In his opponent's defen-e and the driving of his
punch toward it takes an infinitc-lmul fraction of time. And stamina?
Here is an illustration :
yEAHS age. when Battling Xctsen fought Jimmy ZTrr't. for the
tchtte lightiecight championship of the world, he teas given as
terrific a beating as a fighter ever assimilated before he knocked liritt
out. Yet he never stepped coming in; never halted for an instant
in his terrier-like worrying of Iiitt.
Out en Their Feet
AND last winter at the Ice Palace there was duplicated In the manner of
beating that Nelsen-Itritt affair. Geerge Chaney, who hits a mere
pulverizing blew than any man of his inches, fought Jimmy Hnnlun, the
"Denver Caveman" the "second Hauling Nelben," as they call him out
In Colerado r.-arhes.
Hanlen had no mere thought of defense than Nelsen ever had. Chaney
hit him time and again with that terrific left struck bim with every ounce of
power he possessed. Ne ether lightweight in the world could have kept his
feet under that bruising aasault. Though Jimmy was out en his feet nt the
end of every round a daied and helpless target for the Chaney assault he
toyed en his feet!
In the sixth round he landed his own bone-crushing right flush en the
Knockout King's jaw, and there the two steed, practically unconscious,
fighting Instinctively like a couple of maddened cats.
That is stamina.
As for speed of feet, nothing need b said. The difference between the
lancing legs of n Leenard and the plodding slowness of the preliminary
lighter is self-evident. And brains?
e
AS Jilt f'ORBKTT once said, a brainless fighter has as much
i chance in the ting as a brainless shortstop would in the big league,
and when he said that he exhausted the subject.
Concerning Baseball
WHEN the Spanish tennis stars watched their first ball game at Shibe
Park last month, Manuel Alonse, c-nlled "the Jim Thorpe of Spain"
because of his versatility in athletics, declnrcd that baseball was the fastest
fame he had ever seen.
Speed is the first essential, but brains, co-ordination and no one will
deny that co-ordination is vitally necessary in cracking a fast-breaking
curve ball stamina and physical strength nre nls-n required. Dec Johnsten, the
Athletics' first baseman, for instance, can go like n house en fire for two
months, and then he weakens. The yean have tapped his stamina, and he
cannot keep the pace.
Fer a hitter like Ruth tremendous muscular strength Is also necessary.
The long-distance drivers must have powerful shoulders and arms and
thick wrists.
CO
THE list is complete. Like the beser, the ball plover must
possess all five attributes te le a success in his profession.
On the Gridiron
r$ FOOTBALL, as well as baseball, a similar condition Is true. The autumn
game leans a trifle mere toward men with stamina and muscular strength,
though speed Is also an asset net te be sniffed at an asset far mere impor
tant in these days than in the past.
Under the old regime brute power was the big thing. The heroes who
come down te us out of the misty past are the giants like Hlckek and Heffel
tnger. These of last year were Killinger and ethers of his swift-footed breed.
And brains!
Don't let any one tell you that brains are net absolutely necessary In
the quiet little game of football. A dumb quarterback can make the meat
powerful of tenms ineffretlve.
As for stamina, if you ever played through four bitter quarters in fast
football company you'll find that you need all the stamina that is hidden
way in your frame.
BASEBALL, football and betingt They're tough garnet, all, for
any man te tackle with hopes of starring in them.

JACK DCMl'SHY'S next bout, prob
ably before the end of the summer
season, will be with Ilnrry Wills, the
N' Yaw litis Negro. .Tnnies P. Dough
city snjs e, and the fiaren contends
thnt he ought te knew whereof he
speaks.
Returning from New Yerk after being
en the Reception Committee for the re
turn there of the heavyweight champion
and Jack Kenrns, Dougherty said
today :
"Dempjcy and Kearns have con
cluded the bout with Wills Is the one
In demand. He's black, Dec sajs, but
he's human.
"The stand of Demnsey nnd Kenrns
new is te turn nside all ether eilers nnd
discuss only n clash with Wills. And I
hardly need te add that taking this at
titude means the champ is ready te leap
into the ring with Wills ns early 11s pos
sible mid wherever arrangements can he
made te put the crusher en an argu
ment enfegged in erds and tjpe as te
whether the world's champion really is
the world's champion or will meet his
master in Wills."
Commission
"nuts In" Here
A statement has been issued by the
chairman of the New Yerk State I?ox I?ex
ing Commission. William Mulduen, that
the promoter of a Wills-Dcmpsey set set
te must first put up a guarantee, of
financial responsibility in the umeunt
of S-TiO 000 ; thnt he must provide for
40,000 admission at net mere than two
dollars and that arrangements must be
innde te seat at least 100,000 persons.
Tins would be a physical impossibil
ity nt the Velodreme or any ether place
in" New Yerk City, ether thnn the Pole
('rounds'. In which case lex ulcknrd
would net be "in" en the bnttlc, ns the
back urd of the (ilants is privileged,
for boxing purposes, only te the new
Republic A. C. headed by Jehn M.
0'Cos.ner.
Whether this means anything or net
is unknown. However, it is believed
that Kenrns nnd Deiapsey would favor
Kt.kard in doing business with a pro
moter. Dougherty, though, says thnt Keurns
has been closeted with O'Connor al
ready, en the Dempsey-Wills mutter nnd
quotes the latter as saying that lie did
net ee where the conditions of Mudnuii
r..!nli"i.l the making of the match
v. hull impossible.
Ne Proof of $300,000
! Ikmand Made by Champien
I There are rumors current thntDemp
sev has been offered 37' per cent for
a "match with Wills, but the champion
has turned a deal ear te such n propesi
tien niul tins uemanuvu a guurumee ui
$."00.(100, half te be turned ever te him
at the time he tdgns te meet the Negro.
This wild information has reached
Muldoon, bfit he denie-j that the com
mission has uuy proof of such a de
mand. The chairman, however, has
made himself plain in sajing, "If
Dempsey, through his manager, has in
sisted upon any surh guarantee his
license will be revoked."
Anether report, which no doubt is
but the opinion of a "wise cracker
is that conditions laid down by Mul
doon are k drnbtic the champion and
his chnllenger will have te go te New
Jersey or some ether State te decide
their pugilistic pteclivities. This rumor
probably is founded en the belief that
both Kearns n.id Dempsey would much
rnMi-r have Hickard handle the con
test.
Muldoon Is out te protect the public.
Kenrns is after as mucli money as lie
nehsibly can get. There Is going te lie

CASUAL visitor in the training

Seldom in the history of early train

at Jersey Scheel
THE two Dills Tlldcn and Johnsten hav ruled the tennis world for a nnm
ber of years nnd new they are the favorites te come through te the Jmi
round in the American championship at Mnnhelm. "
But with ench passing season tney get closer te tne peak, and after tkt
h Is reached the down-grade is the only read. "
What about the future of American tennis? Are there enough geed yw
players te take the place of the veterans wnen tney are overtaken by ripe, oil
athletic age? '
The appointment of Vincent Richards en the Davis Oup team meant tin
passing of Watsen Washburn ns an internationalist. One by one they drop out :
of the nlcture.
Aside from Richards, the best looking of the younger players are the Eiein
brothers, of California. This pair probably is the most interesting of thei wS
nre a few notches under the leading stars.
Beb Klnscy can scarcely be classed as a youngster, as he has pasted the '
twcnty-flvc-yenr mark, but Heward is only twenty-two and shewa the tUuu! '.
and class of n real contender.
Phil Necr and Jim Davies, the Leland Stanford pair, also are hlM
regarded nineng the younger players, and Wrny Brown, of St. Leuis, ahewtd
nromlse bv ttlcklne In the Intercollegiate until the final round.
Lucicn Williams, Yole's collegiate tltlchelder, also bears the marks of i'
future great, and Walter Wesbroek, of Michigan, is another who has attained!
degree of prominence. ,,

Difference Between Winner and Leser
THE difference between a winning pitcher and a losing pitcher Is often luckv '
And geed luck and bad luck frequently are separated by a fraction of ai
inch.
If in a pinch the curve does net break wide enough it mny stay right in the'
groove of the batsman. If the ball had curved an inch further or dropped a Ml
lower It would luive been missed.
Delivering the wrong kind of a ball establishes losing streaks for niaj
pitchers. The winning hurler may threw ns many wrong bnlls ns the ledns

A tintnble abrenten among the candi
Elwood C. Cornog, the former Swarth
more College football stnr of several
years back, has been appointed coach
of the Moorestown High Scheel eleven.
He succceda C. J. Miller ns coach of
the Jersey eleven.
Cot neg's exceptional knowledge of
football is recognized highly in these
parts, and his appointment Is received
with much rejoicing by the alumni nnd
backers of the Jersey school. They are
looking forward te one of the best sea
sons that a Moorestown team has ever
had.
Cornog has Immediately started prep
arations for a busy campaign. Al
though there are only n few veterans
buck from iatt year's eleven, he has
plenty of strong material with which te
meld out a formidable combination.
He had the players out prut-tiring
Wednesday and Thursday, sending
them through light scrimmages and in
structing them in the proper method of
carrying the pigskin and tackling.
Scheel was reopened en Tuesday, nnd
a squad of twenty players greeted the
new coach. After giving them n little
heart-te-heart talk en the rudiments
I of the game he took them te the field
and put them te work.
PHILADELPHIA tennis galleries undoubtedly are fair te players and
the fans will respond te the requests of the officials. Occasionally
their enthusiasm carries them off the beaten patli, but it is with nt
intent te show partisanship.
The One-Year Rule in Collegiate Sperta
mHE one-year rule in collegiate athletics is almost universal, nnd it will net
J- be long before every college will adept the law which prohibits athletes from
competing until they have entered upon their second yenr.
Notable exceptions In the East are Lafayette, Washington and Jeffersen,
Colgate and Lehigh. Freshmen nre permitted te play en vnrslty teams at then
colleges, but it is known that thev are t-enslderlnir tlie mm.,... ,,i ...i...i.
The absence of the freshman rule works a hardship en the opponents of tbt'fl
college which does net maintain it, nnd mere and mere there is nn lnclinstles

It is doubtful if the coming academic yenr will pnbs before the rule will b
