FOOTBALL SHOT TO PIECES AT BIG COLLEGES; TECH TACKLES LEBANON WITH CRIPPLES
"Strange and Rollicking, by Jove"
Was Baseball to Cricket Sharp
The man who writes cricket and
football for the London Telegraph
made his first effort the other day to
report a baseball game twixt teams
of American soldiers. Have a laugh:
"Yesterday in Hyde Park on a
ground given to them by the king,
two teams of American soldiers play

around and stood about many spec

curious folk, and obvious novelty

and quite a largo gathering of well

"Sufficient food for the cinema hav

side affecting red costumes and the
other blue, itched to start, and so.
with great huroar, the lord mayor
consented to pitch the first ball—an
exacting and scientific proceeding far
beyond the capacity of the average
Briton, but done in such a way by
Sir Charles that the ball fell short by
a yard or so. and the striker, in an
effort to swipe it, fell in a heap.
Which was voted to bo all to the
credit of the lord mayor.
"Thereafter eighteen men, about as
fine physical specimens as one could
see, all on fire with keenness, masters
of repartee, gloriously indifferent to the
susceptibilities of 'the other fellow,'
experts in 'rattling' the opposition, in

in the band of the camp followers —
one had an accordion, all glittering
with gold and silver, the other boat

FRIDAY EVENING,
It was all very strange and rollicking,
but it served as nothing else could
have done so well to bring the
stranger into the very heart of base
ball, und to understand it. These
American soldiers, split up into rival
parties, shouting with gusto, chiding
the striker, poking fun at the pitcher,
and generally holding high revel, took
the many novices who looked on with
them through the phases of eighteen
innings of hustle. .
"And it was agreed that the base
ball player enjoys a position of splen
did isolation in the world of sport. He
is never still; his energy, his capacity
to shout and to make merry is in
exhaustible. So Intent were the sides
on winning that it was easy to sup
pose that nothing else mattered but
victory.
My Word! "Unbridled Admiration"
"Every incident was duly noted,
analyzed and given its proper place in
the game. Pitching done well called
forth unbridled admiration; pitching
done indifferently earned derision of
an uncompromising kind. There is no
loom for failures in baseball; every
man must be so keyed up that he
makes only a minimum of howlers. In
one of the innings one of the strikers
was bawled at to 'hit out,' which he
didn't, whereupon he earned 'How can
he hit It when he can't see It?'
"A reason counted good enough by
everybody; cruel logic.
"But if thero is much of the harum
scarum about baseball from the point
of view of those who have not lived in
it and played it. it has this virtue, it
demands that the player shall be no
slacker. It is essentially a game for
fit men only, such men as those of the
American services undoubtedly are.
And this game yesterday, understood
as it must have been before it ended,
provided an index to the mind of the
American fighting man, the mind of
the keen, serious man out to excel and,
above all, to succeed.

War Causes Boston
Ball Club to Look
For New Owner
When the baseball races were
shut down by the government on
September 1 of this year, it was
predicted that several big league
clubs would be unable to with
stand a period of war idleness and
would go under financially.
; The first crack is likely to take
place in Boston, where the National
League club is about to go on the
rocks.
James E. Gaffney, former owner
of the club and a contractor of
New York, said he would take
back the franchise next Monday
unless the present owners of the
club met their obligations. There
is a considerable sum due GafTney
for rental of Braves Field, while
the present owners also are behind
in the payment of interest on bonds
held by Gaffney and associates.
The Boston Nationals had been
sailing along on half a rudder for
some time and their finances were
not in the best condition even be
fore General Crowder issued his
famous "work or fight" order.
Percy Haughton resigned as presi
dent of the club to accept a com
mission as major in the chemical
warfare service. The club since
then lias been without a real ex
ecutive. its affairs having been left
in the hands of Walter Ilapgood.
its business manager.
The Boston Nationals are owned
by a syndicate of New England
bankers, who purchased the fran
chise from Gaffney in 1916. The
club lost money continually from
the time the new owners took
charge and has been on the market
for the last two years. But in
these war times there nre few base
ball purchasers. Efforts were
made to sell the club back to Gaff
ney at a considerable loss, but
Gaffney would not buy.

Baldwin's to Build IJSOO
Locomotives For U. S.
Philadelphia, Oct. 11.—From the
government the Baldwin Locomo
jUve Company has received an order
for the construction of 1.500 loco
motives and it is estimated that the
cost will be about $60,000,000.
The locomotives will be of the type
which the company has recently
manufactured for use upon the
American-built roads in France.
This means that the new engines
will be powerful and entirely up-to
dato. The Baldwin Company has
been manufacturing locomotives for
the United States government on the
basis of ten per cent, profit and on
this basis the profit to the company
on the new' order will be around
$6,000,000. Probably more than a
year will be required to fill this or
der.
Powerful locomotives for use upon
the American railways are much
needed by the railway administra
tion to handle the large amoun of
freight required to meet the de
mands of war and domestic pur- I
poses and the addition of this new
equipment as rapidly as it can be
manfactured wilr be of vast assist

"Why don't you write something
about that little Jockey over in New
York who killed himself the other
day,demanded a Harrisburg horse
man, one of the few left who takes
a genuine concern in the equine
race. "I never heard a story more
pathetic and true to life than thut kid
killing himself because he wus pre
vened from riding his favorite horse
and then heard that the animal
broke his leg in the race and had
to be shot. That is the real soul
of race track life. These men have
hearts and they have love for the
horse, more real and lasting than
most humans have for each other."
The Horseman's Home
The sailor sings about his life
As all there is worth while,
But he ca™ have his stormy strife —
Llkewjse his seas that smile;
Give him his far off ways to roam,
Give him his seas that roar;
But he who calls the saddle home
Knows joy forevermore.
He learns to love the music of
His horse's flying feet;
No harplike sound in spars above
Can e'er be salf so sweet;
The silvery cadence of the spur
That jingles at his heel,
The smell of sage and distant fir—
Such Joys do horsemen feel.
So swing into the leather, pard,'
And give the bronc his head;
The prairie's wide, so hit it hard I
Before the day has fled;
The cactus flowers are white as foam
Upon the plains land's floor;
And he who calls the saddle home
Knows joy everywhere.

New York, Oct. 10.—If you were a
heavyweight wrestler instructing the
soldiers at Camp Dix and a sport pro
moter came along and called you a
German, would you consider it un
due violence to spank the promo
ter?
That is what Wlgdez Zbyszko told
the West Side Court when he was
arraigned upon the charge of strik
ing Lewis Meyer, of Mount Vernon,
a-promoter of sporting events.
The big Polish wrestler said that
he was in the office of Jack Curley,
the modest violet of sportdom, in
1482 Broadway, and Meyer came
along and called him a German.
"That got my goat," said the man
with the scrambled alphabet for a
name, "as I am 100 per cent. Amer
ican, so I picked him up and spank
ed him. When he fell his head struck
a cuspidor."
Magistrate McQuade wanted to see
some marks of the encounter and
when Meyer could not show any he
dismissed the case-
Just because a mail may hail from
San Francisco,
Or have a name so scrambled as
Zbyszko
Docs not say thnt he's a Hun
Or a spongy hot-cross bun;
And you want to look out when his
husky lists go!
In formation that has been re
ceived concerning Jimmy Wilde's
recent bout with Joe Conn in Eng
land, leads Joe Jackson of Detroit
to observe that it must be a source
of Joy to Benny Leonard that the
aUieid nations have not standardized
boxing, as they have munitions and
motors. Benjamin boxed Ted Lewis
September 23 and drew down sll,-
908 as his bit while Lewis got ss|-
506. Shortly before this mill, Jimmy
Wilde, who is a world champion, fly
weight division, and also an enlist
ed man in the British army, assign
ed to the teaching of boxing, a post
similar to Leonard's in- the Amer
ican army, had a bout with Conn,
a feutherweight. Wilde is a fistic
idol in England—so -well liked that
he and his opponent were able to
demand a $20,000 purse. It was to
be split, 75 per cent, to Wilde, re
gardless of outcome. In England the
government doesn't regard sport
either as a thing'to be squelched, ot
to be disregarded. The authorities
stepped right in and forced the club
to give a winner's and loser's end,
with a 60-40 cut. This at one and
the same time forced both boys to
go the limit, and, with a decent
loser's end, removed the temptation
of crookedness. Just before the bout
the miliary authorities passed an
order -forbidding any man in army
or navy competing for any reward
other than a medal or trophy of
some sort. Money prizes were ta
booed. Wilde had to fight, because
he was under contract. But he
couldn't collect. Being a pariot—
he had a battle to get into the army,
because of his weight, 100 pounds—
cost him $12,000, while his oppon
ent, who is doing nothing for his
country, took a knockout and SB,OOO
cash. The $12,000 is still in the
hands of the stakeholder, who
doesn't know what to do with it.
