Regatta at Springfield

Special Dispatch to The Star
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, November IL
Indications are that the next annual re-
gatta of the National Association of Anna
teur Oarsmen, the championship races, VIII
De held here. The oarsmen in this section
are preparing an application to the execu-
tive committee which will contain the
usual promises, and it is believed that they
will be carried out, which cannot be said of
all of the promises that have been made
in recent years by cities that have had this
regatta. 1t is understood that the Boston
oarsmen will support the Springfield petit
ton.
Prominent among the more active In the
sport in this city is John p. Coogan, a rep
resentative business man, and it is proba-
bic that he will be elected to succeed the
late Walter Simpson as member of the
national executive committee when thar
body meets next March. Springfield Will
thus have representative on the commit
tee for the first time.
The Springfield course on the Connecticut
river is familiar to many oarsmen In differ
ent sections of the country and is well
spoken of. 1t is straight, has little current
and Is ordinarily smooth No opposition 10
its selection would be made in different
sections. ii is thought because the rowing
conditions and the transportation are good
Many of the regattas Of the New England
Amateur Rowing Association have been
held here. and next to Boston the city he's

who sometimes get all the glory when the
forwards do all the work.
Shevlin, the Yale end and captain comes
pretty near being the best foot ball player
IN the east. Blessed with a physique that
makes him not only very strong but very
tast, ne Is also a player who uses his head
10 good purpose. He has shown ability as
a leader, and while sensible enough TO fol-
low out the policy of the coaches and ad-
vlsers. has just the right amount of self
dependence to make whatever deuartures
are necessary TO deal with situations that
cannot possibly be foreseen In short he
has foot ball instinct. is not so well nIeased
with himself as not to abide by the advice
OF Older and wiser heads, but vet has
enough assertiVeness to handle situations
When they are up 10 him. Defensively and
extensively he Is the best end in the country
and by his individual ability is conspicuous
IN every game. He knows when to take a
chance and when to cling religiously to or
thodox tactics. He is one of eleven or an
individual as the occasion requires In adj
dluon 10 all this he comes as near being
an all around player as any foot ball play
er. He has played tackle and fullback with
success and is heavy enough TO play guard
or center in pinch. Then again, his all
around ability in his position is equaled
by few contemporaries, whether they be
ends or what not. Whether carrying the
ball breaking up plays, tacl<ling or getting
down under kicks he does them all well
Hurley, the Harvard halfback and cap
tain; Cooney, the Princeton tackle and cap
tain; Stevenson, the Pennsylvania quarter
back, and Eckersall, the Chicago quarter
back, are other players whose work makes
them worthy of consideration Hurley
knows the game from A to Il, plays the
halfback position In hrst-class style. is thor
oughly game and makes as much out of his
position as any player in the country Coon
ey, like all of the other men mentioned is
greatly in evidence in games. and that be-
cause his high-grade play warrants It.
He is a fighter, like all of the others and
a man whose natural attachments on the
checkerboard make him an inspiration for
others to do their best. He may not be as
good an all around man as some. hut his
spirit and his proficiency "A tackle put
him in the first rank Of players.
Stevenson is the great player in his posi-
ton His generalship, betokening instructive
knowledge of the game. and his individual
prowess, making him al all times dangerous
to the other side, and his ability to get
work out of his players, put him In the top
notch class; but he is overscrappy and needs
to acquire better control of his feelings be-
fore he can be classed as the best. Ecker
sail, while a small man. is as good a quar-
terback as foot ball ever produced, IL not
the best He is wonderful kicker, swift
runner. fine dodger, good general, sure
tackler To call him great is not laying 1t
on too thick He is an important factor at
all times, as much so as any other one man
in foot ball despite his compare lively small
size and it is close between him and Shev-
lin as to which is the best player in the
country.

PHILADELPHIA, November 11.-Abe At

for the international featherweight cham

from Bowker in London announcing his de-

not care TO spend her honeymoon nursing

has been battered out OF the majority of
his good looks. he has determined to
defer 10 her wishes.

Fencing at Cornell
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
ITHACA, November 11-Fencing is hav-
ing a great boom at Cornell this winter.
Plans have been made for a long schedule
and more men than ever before are out for
the team. Although the fencing club is the
organization which bears the expenses of
caring for team, the gymnasium depart
ment has taken the sport in charge and is
paying in part for the services of coach
and instructor. In consequence a large
number of men are out preparing for the
novice meet which Professor Young, the
physical director, plans TO hold later in the
winter.
The prospects for turning out a good
.eam are excellent. Two members of last
years team are back. as well as all of the
substitutes. A number of good new men
have reported, including several men who
have had previous instruction. There are
at present about forty men fencing under
Coach Gelas. 1t Is the intention of the
club. If enough interest is manifested to
organize a broad sword team which may
be entered in some of the out-of- town con-
tests. 1t is believed that under the new
system men will receive more satisfactory
instruction than in previous years.

HARvARD'S 0ARSMEN
Outlook is Good for a Winner
in the 1906 Grew.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass November lin
the annual struggle to defeat Yale at ath-
letics the Harvard rowing program for
next season is not being neglected by those
to whom this department of college sports
Is being delegated. 1t has been long time
since Harvard had such bright prospects
on the water. OF the eight men who rowed
such close race against Yale in the var
sity eight-oar at New London last spring
seven are in college again this year and
eligible for the crew. The only man miss
ing is Ted Meier, who rowed No. z. Ernest
George is the only man from the four-oar
crew that vanquished Yale that will not be
back again. In addition to these seasoned
men there are all the men from last years
freshman boat. The Harvard 1908 crew is
considered at Cambridge as one of the best
if not the very best freshman crew that
the Cambridge institution ever turned out.
James Wray, the Australian coach who
did such good work with the crimson oars
men last year, will be again in charge.
Wray should do much better this year than
last, owing to the fact that this will be his
second consecutive year with the men with
whom he Will have to work. Capt. Oliver
Filley has done more for Harvard rowing
than any other captain in a long time. He
was the chief factor in bringing Wray to
Cambridge ana making 1t possible that the
latter should have sufficient authority to
turn out fast crew. FiHey stuck to his
professional coach last spring when after
the Cornell-Harvard race, In which the
crimson oarsmen were disastrously beaten
it appeared as though Wray's efforts were
a failure.
Capt. Filley will undoubtedly stroke the
Cambridge eight again this year. This will
make his third year as stroke. In his fresh
man year he rowed in the varsity eight
Meier, who rowed last year. is not in the
university this year. His place will prob
ably be taken by Dan NeWhall, the hockey
captain, who rowed on the varsity crew
last spring. Newhall is a very powerful
man, and last year did much to make him
a clean and finished oar. Both stroke and
No. from last years freshman boat could
supply excellent men in the persons of
Morgan and Amberg, who rowed those
places on the 1908 crew.
Morgan is rather short for the ideal
stroke, and Amberg needs a years matur-
Ing before he reaches his best for four
mile race. He is very tall and had the
reputation last year of being the best oar
on the Charles river in point of clean
blade work. Bacon and Lawson. No q
and No. . on the varsity eight, are both
eligible for the varsity eight again this
year Emmons and Glass are two strap
ping big men who did not row last year, but
both are out this year. Flint Tappan and
Burchard are eligible for the bow posi-
tons as well as Fish, Richardson Wig
gins and Fahnestock from the freshman
boat Corlett, Gill and Farley are the men
from the four-oar eligible this year.

PICKING THE BEST
FOOT BALL PLAYER

Who is the best foot ball player in the
country? One way at which to arrive at an
opinion on this subject is to consider which
man plays his position best; another, to
consider which combines to the most extent
foot ball brains with the necessary physical
qualifications; still another, to deal with
the question from the standpoint of the
greatest all around ability. And the ques-
ton of the players value as unit in team
work cannot be overlooked. Foot ball
brains, or instinct. or whatever one is
mind to call 1t, the knack of being able to
cope with emergencies on the field and IL
necessary assert individuality and get away
from the requirements of cut-and-dried
policy, are mental qualifications without
which no foot ballist could ever be consid-
cred In the best class. One difficulty in ar
irving at a conclusion is that much of the
very best work in foot ball is done in the
line, where it does not come under general
observation, as does the work Of the backs,

lures the game stands as the most note
WORTHY in diamond history. 1t was the
second longest game ever played and the
longest in which runs were scored
me game was played in Houston Tex
on October g. The contending teams were
the South Texas Lumber Company and
the Ramblers. Both are amateur organ
izations of fair base ball class. All of the
twenty-four innings of the play were
fiercely contested.
The longest game ever played was be-
tween the Fargo and Devils Lake teams
on July Is, 1901 The score was 0 to 0 and
was called at the end of the twenty-fifth
inning because of darkness. The Man
chester On. H.) professional team and the
Harvard College team played twenty-four
innings to a scoreless draw on Nav IL
1877
In this last addition to the long-game
records the Ramblers scored two runs in
the first inning, The Lumber Company
team tied the score in the third inning
and the score remained tied then until the
twenty-fourth inning.
In the final round both teams were near
exhaustion. Blakeney, the Lumbermen's
pitcher, had held steady from the first
inning, but he wavered in the TWENTY
fourth and five runs were scored against
him.
Miller, the Ramblers' pitcher. was but
little better off than Blakeney when his
turn came to face the music and he was
hard hit, but the game ended after two
runs had been scored against him. The
final score was, therefore, Z to T.
Thrilling episodes We're frequent in the
game. Each team made three errors The
batteries were Miller and Germ for the
Ramblers. Biakeney and Breeding for the
Lumbermen. Both pitchers lasted the game
through and were In fairly good condition
at the end. Miller had shfrty-six strikeouts
and Blakeney had thirty-four.
The exact time of the game was not re-
corded. but II occupied about four hours
Unfortunately for the records OF the game
and baseball In general, no score was kept.

slender Corbett would faint when he grasp

Corbett rose to Bernhard heights. He
wanted demonstration, and, to the sur
prise of all. he made Sullivan the object
direct.
''Grasping Sullivan by the huge shoulders,
he tugged him half out of pose. saying at
the same time, Now, Mr. Duffy, it is all
right to break like this, isn't it Duffy an

said Corbett, bowling acknowledgment to
the referee. 'But-and he again grasped
Sullivan roughly-'would you interpret tbs
as a clean break from a clinch? Yes, an
swered Duffy. Thank you, Mr.. Duffy.
That's ALL responded Corbett, as though
he were just giving a boxing lesson.
Then the men were ordered back to their
corners for the sound of the gong. Corbett
caught Sullivan looking back over his
shoulder in bewildered way at him. That
was the first time in his ring career that
Sullivan had ever deigned to look over his
shoulder at an opponent, and it gave 10
Corbett a world of confidence. He had the
