MAN AND HIS WAYS.

Actors travel so much on their nerve
nowadays. 1t makes 'em think they're
nervous" said the old carpenter. why,
I was with a show that had to delay
opening two weeks because the star
discovered a fancy interior done in blue
and gold He said blue got on his
nerves; so we lost time while the scene
was painted over. Same way with an
Other-a woman star. She wouldn't
work because n parlor set had panels
decorated with peacoclSs. Said she was
pecked once - a peacock, and even pie
lures of 'euI scared her.
But you Gun bet that's done mostly
for advertising. They do their acting
for the preSs agents, and the more hot
air Is WrOte about 'em in the news
papers. the better actors they think they
are.
Used 10 be actors had to produce the
goods-4and do It on real acting, too.
They could act and talk so as to make
the audience think IL was a baimy
moonlight night for instance, without
q lot OF electrical stuff to help 'em out.
There's often more stage hands work
ing realistic effects. nowadays than
there are actors in the whole cast; and
sometimes what passes for q good show
would be just as interesting II there
was no actors in IT."
what is lacking il the modern actor
compared with the old sChoOlP' asked
the student.
Most of 'em amt got the backbone to
be good actors" replied the old man.
"Can you figure any of tn 5se dude So
ciety stars pulling of fierce sword fights
and struggles like Mccullough or For

And that's what makes us sick when

TRENTON STILL OUT
FOR EASTERN LEAGUE

TRENTON, Dec. 3O.-Although Mana
ger Carney gave up hope Of seeing Tren-
ton in the Eastern League some time
ago, Lewis Perrine, president Of the
local club. is still confident that his
team will not open in the tri-state. but
will begin as a member of Pat Powrs'
league Perrine expects the national
commission to take some action on the
case OF Montreal at its meeting in Cleve-
land on January 8.
IT is the consensus of opinion hero
that the Tri-state League will not pan
out this season with the reduced salary
limit, and the fans are clamorfng for an
Eastern League outfit. Under present
rules Trenton cannot become a member
Of the Eastern League, but Perrine ex-
poets that rules will be made whereby
Trenton can leave the tri-state and take
Montreals place without disrupting the
former outlaw organization.
Meanwhile Manager Carney is going
ahead signing players.

BALL
ENDORSED BY
DAVE FULTZ

NEW YORK. Dec. 30-In view Of the
determined attempt that Is to be made
by the intercollegiate Athletic AssOcia-
ton 70 eradicate. or at least modify the
playing of summer baseball by college
students. the ideas Of Dave Fultz,
former center fielder or the Philadelphia
Athletics. now a practicing lawyer and
a lecturer In the religious field. are in
teresung.
Fultz's views follow: Il see no rea-
son why the bona fde college student Of
gooG standing, good moral character,
who engages in athletics for money dur
ing the summer months as a means OF
obtaining his education. should not rep
resent his college. Our students sing
I'm churches, or in summer opera com
panies and then return 10 college and
sing on our glee clubs; the writer may
contribute % newspapers. magazines
and still write for our college publica-
tlons. He OF much wisdom may coach
the delinquent student. and still repre-
sent our debating club. All this is done
for money, but the ethical status Is
never questioned.
I'VE are prone TO view this question
from hut one standpoint. In many cases
the man has not taken money simply
FOR moneys sake. but because he Is in
sore need OF Il. and then they say.
oh, there is nothing wrong In mans
playing for money, only he should not
afterward play on college teams Why
not, If he has done no wrong? Are two
rights ever repusnant in princlple?'
During his days as a student at Brown
University, Fultz was one OF the best
ball players in the college ranks.

Harlan, the great drop-kicking half

leaves that institution IN June. may
enter the University Of Virginia next

Should he do this his presence on
the football squad would materially
strengthen the Orange and Blue. even
though eligibility rules would bar his

Ian is also a baseball player Of note. and
his decision to enter the University Of

PROBABLE CHANGES
IN GRAND CIRCUIT
Cleveland and Detroit May
Not Enter-PrOSpective
Places.

NEW YORK, Dec. S0.-The stewards
Of the Grand Circuit will meet i'm New
York city on January 13 10 determine
on the tracks that shall be included in
the big chain Of meetings for the light
harness horse during the season Of 1908
It is practically assured that the
Cleveland Driving Park Company will
not give a meeting next season. and
unless some other Cleveland club comes
TO the front there will be no Grand
Circuit meeting at the Forest City.
Detroit IS also somewhat in doubt,
for the reason that Daniel J. Campau
the man who has managed the big trot-
ting meetings there for many years,
announces that he positively Will not be
identified with the sport next season.
This will mean a change of tracks even
though a meeting is given.
No Dearth of Tracks.
Kalamazoo, Libertyvlue. and Lima are
three applicants for places, so there IS
no question about the strength Of the
Grand Circuit in case Cleveland and
Detroit do both drop out. The Liberty
Vile meeting preceded the opening of
the Grand Circuit last year, and many
horses that started at Detroit were
given their first races at LibertyvilIe
il was there that Highball made his
record Of 2:O6l. in his first start, beat
irg SonomR Girl, and II was also there
that the great gelding met his first
defeat, losing to the speedy California
mare IN a second race over the same
track tho following week
Kalamazoo was hot FOR a place in tho
Grand Circuit last year. and would
gladly accept dates ahead of Detroit in
case the lattr holds onto the week
usually assigned for the Blue Ribbon
come in ahead of Kalamazoo. and
Lima, II admitted, would have to take
the place usually assigned Cleveland.
Buffalo Circuit Intact.
From Buffalo the circuit will very
likely be about the same as last year
Poughkeepsie, Readville, Providence,
Hartford. Syracuse. and Columbus the
latter with a two weeks meeting.
There should be a chance for Phila-
dolphia TO get into the circuit. taking
one of the weeks given Columbus, but
so far no one has come 70 the front
with the necessary amount of backing.
II is believed that a firSt-class trOtting
and pacing meeting conducted on up
to-date lines would prove a winner at
either Of the Quaker mile tracks, par
ticularly at Point Breeze, because OF
the good transportation facilities, bG,
there would. of course, be some risks.

Halpin Comes Out
With Arrangement
Of Gotham Critics
Caustic Comment on Conduct of OIympan Ath-
Ietes-Flays AccuserS, Claiming That
They Acted Under Pressure

NEW YORK. Dec. 3O.-Smartiug un-
der the continued failing OF members OF
the American team which he managed
on last years trip 20 the Athens Olympic
games, Matt Halpin has broken his
period of silence.
Last night at the New York Athletic
Club Halpin gave out a long statement
in defense Of his position:
He said in part:
Realizing that ] have been placed
in a false position by my recent de-
termination not TO publicly defend my
self against the criticisms Of members
Of the Irish-American A. c., and others
with reference to the late trip Of The
American athletes 10 the Olympic
games in Athens. have reconsidered
TO the end Of the subjoiued statement:
Not Responsible for Arrangements.
L have been held accountable for all
the work Of the American Olympic
committee Of that time. who made all
the arrangements for the trip long be-
fore I was appointed TO the position Of
manager Of the American team make
this statement IN order that the respoa-
sibility for the steamship lines, hotel
accommodations. and all side Issues Of
the foreign trip may be placed where
they belong, namely with the American
committee
I was simply concerned with the IT.
cidental arrangements and the physical
condition Of the men. With special
reference TO the hotel arrangements at
Athens. we were provided with quarters
ir the Zappion, this place being set aside
by the Crown Prince of Greece for ath
ietes TTAn al Oyer the world. This
hospitality, represented by quarters and
accommodations in the Zappion, was
gratefully accepted by the oxford and
Cambridge men, who readily accepted
the quarters in the Zappion vacated by
tho disEruntlcd members OF the Amer
lean team.
Result of Club Rivalry.
Il have insisted that the persistent
attacks being made upon me were not
caused by my treatment of certain Of
the American athletes on the trip 20
Athens.
