Rudy UnhOlz, the BOer with the
comical face and winning way, appears
to be happy now that he has a match

has enough confidence in his ability to
win any kind of fight. OF course
this is all right. but confidence as
rule does not count for much when Joe
Cans is on the delivering end of

eeived from the Boer by the writer

Where Spokane Is Wrong.

So Spokane has released Frank
NorthrOp This is the information sent
ever the wires from the northwest, and
the writer believes Spokane made a
serious mistake. Northrop is 4 ball
player and a hitter of exceptional a0ii-
ity. This statement is made only after
watching Northrop for two years when
he played rings around men who are
considered stars in the Northwestern
league. Northrop has one serious
fault however, and it is without ques-
ton this fault that was discovered by
Spokane. He is strictly a hot weather
player. Here i'm Utah Northrop never
got going until the season was at least
a month old. Whether it is because he
will not work hard to get in condition,
or whether he is naturally one of those
players who cannot play until the hot
weather rolls around, is not known,
but, at any rate. one would not pick
him out as a ball player when the
bunch gets together for spring prac
tice Northrop has signed with the
Spokane City league, in which there is
some fast company. If the old dog
gets down to work and performs rs he
did in Utah. both last season and the
season before, some of the teams in
the Northwestern league will be sign
ing him before the season is over. and
they will all wonder how they ever
overlooked him.

TRAINER CUTS OUT MEAT
Pennsylvania Man Discovers That
Vegetables Beat Beef
steak

Philadelphia. May IN c. Murphy and
Captain n. J. Cartmell of the Penn
track team. have adopted a new training
regimen for the University of Pennsylva-
mia. 1t prescribes a minimum of meats
for diet and a substitution of oranges and
vegetables within moderate limits. The
new theory that thick steaks are not
speed producers is vouched for by Cap
tain Cartmell. the Intercollegiate cham
pion 100 and 220-yard Splinter. who has
made some tests on his own account.
He claims that they prove that the less
meat a runner eats the faster he is and
the quicker he gets into condition. Muir
phy is not so insistent on a regulation
diet but he admits that sprinters, hurdl-
ers and jumpers should eat very sparinglY
of meat because Of the tendency to eat If
too quickly and not allow for its proper
digestion.
With the loss OF Guy Haskins. the
intercollegiate half and mile champion,
Pennsylvania men know that they have
before them the most severe task in years
TO turn out another championship team.
This has been impressed upon every man
in the squad.

Rowing Should Be a Utah Sport.

There is no reason in the world why
rowing should not be one of the most
popular sports in this state. The Great
Salt lake and Utah lake are ideal
places for holding rowing races and,
with a year or so of the game to edu-
cate the public up to this SPORT, il
should take its place along with the
other leading amusements of an
amusement-loving public. Saltair could
well afford to father the sport in this
state, as this resort would be the great
est benefactor from the game in a fin
ancial way. The pavilion would make
an IDEAL grand stand. and a course OF
any required distance could be sur
veyed on the broad exDanse of water
in front OF this pavilion.
