sullivan ON His Fight with corbet,

hulllVan on H1s F1Sht with C0fbotts
John L. Sullivan, was recently inter-
viewed, and had the following to say:
81 am teetotaler now. I have not
drank drop in five months, except in
St. Paul during the week of the Fitzsim-
mons Maher fight, and drank little all
of that week. But from now on until I
begin training will not take a drink.
&C will begin training about June 80. I
would like Bay st. Louis if 1 had my
choice. However, my training quarters
will be decided upon by my hackers. 1
will train in quiet place and out of con-
venient reach of too many people.
81 have not the slightest idea who will
look after my training. 1t will not be
Muldoon, for will not train like / did for
Kilrain. I took long walks; this time I
will not walk SO much. The principal
feature of my training will be skipping
the rope. think it the very best kind
of exercise for a pugilist. 1t is an exercise
that keeps arms and legs going, and your
chest is brought into play as well. Be-
sides, will have big ten-pound ball to
toss and fighting bag to hit. I will also
play foot ball.
"Corbett is clever boxer, and, pre-
sumo, a nice fellow. Of course will win,
and win easily. I don't want to appear
in the light of blusterer, but look on
that purse and 5000 stake as very easy
money!"

HARVARD'S CRACK PITCHER
John Ashley Highlands, Of Whom
Much is Expected.

His Style Differs From ali Others-Con-
sidered to he One of tho Best in the
Country-Nine Ianings without .
Base Hit.
John Ashley Highlands, who Is con-
sidered to be one of the best pitchers OF
the present day, either amateur or pro.
fessional, makes his first appearance this
season as member of the Harvard Col
Iege team.
He is left handed pitcher of remarka-
BILE ability. His style differs from shat OF
any of the prominent left-handed pitch
ers who have gone before, except possibly
Dupee" Shaw. Highlands is like him
only in the way he poises before deliver
ing the ball.
During the recent visit of the Harvard
team to New York, Highlands gave fine
exhibition of his skill in his game against
the Manhattan Athletic Club at Manhat-
tan Field. He pitched throughout the
entire nine innings, preventing the Man
hattans from making single base hit.
Highlands is calm and deliberate in his
movements while in the box. His pre-
iminary motions are not graceful, but
very effective. He swings his body far
back before delivering the ball, so as to
get as great degree Of speed as possible.
When he let's it go his hand is high above
his shoulder and the ball shoots out and
down with bewildering curve, coupled
with great speed. 1t is not remarkable
that his opponents have hard work in
hitting it.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1892-04-30

Highlands is taking special course in
the Scientific School at Harvard. His
early studying was done at Saxton's
Academy, Vermont, where he put in one
year. He spent ono year at the High
School, Boston, and then went to the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Four years of his career were taken up
there. He entered Harvard last fall.
He was born at Fall River twenty-three
years ago. His height is feet u inch,
and he weighs 100 pounds when trained
down to playing form. He is a member
Of the Boston Athletic Association, and
pitches for the team of that organization.
Modesty is one OF Highlands charsc-
teristics. While in New York, playing
the st. Johns College boys at Fordham,
he said: /" consider Laurence Young, of
Princeton, the greatest pitcher who ever
wore college uniform" That compile
ment should be appreciated by the Jer.
sey twirler, as it was paid in utmost sin.
cerity.

Some Odd Looking English Hats.

Stubs, in his Anatomy of Abuses"
describes pleasing variety of new
fashioned headgear-hats perking up
like the spear or shaft of temple; hats
fat and broad on the crown, like the
battlements of house, and round
crowns with bands Of every color. This
variety of shape consorted with an equal
variety of material-silk, velvet, taffeta,
sarsenet, wool and "a fine hair, which
they call beaver, fetched from beyond
the seas" Whose had not hat of velvet
or hat of tafeta was held of no account
among the gilded youth of the time.
and so common a thing was this osten-
tation in the matter of head covering
that every serving man, countryman

HEFFELFINGER LEAVES YALE.

One OF the Greatest Athletes who Evex
Graduated from a College.
William w. Heffelfinger, the noted
Yale athlete, has permanently retired
from the university, and will enter the
employ of the Union Pacific Railroad
Company.
In his way Hefelfinger is one of the
greatest all-round athletes who ever
graduated from the university. He began
his career by playing foot bail as fresh
man, and at the same time made reputa-
tion as a sprinter, notwithstanding his
200 pounds of weight. Each succeeding
year he gained additional glory on the
foot ball field, and concluded his under
graduate career by being one Of the crew
in New London last summer.
When Heffelinger returned to college
after the Christmas recess, it was an
nounced that he would complete his
course in the law school, and thus appear
on the foot ball field another season. A
ren1unerative offer from the Union Pa
