COLLEGE ARMS ARE
 SOMETHING GRAND"

Well seasoned ball players. those who have been in the game for live lihood for a, long time. marvel much at the termerity of the youngsters who step out on the field for the first prac. tice of the year and heave the ball in caterpult fashion. The collsgian Is also a mark for a wonder with the pro- fessional fellows. the reckless manner in which he .expends energy and pure physical exuberance in his efforts to bring glory to alma mater attracting unbounded. if somewhat plying admiS ration. l
 In sizing up the comparative styles of play. Manager Hugh Jennings of the Detroit Tigers. who haK had much experience with college men. having coached Cornell when taking the law course there. expresses himself as im- pressed particularly with not only the abandon with which the collegian goes at the game. but with the uniformly fine throwing capacity of the varsity product. He terms the average college arm as something grand
 He says:
 College boys don't take the same kind of care of their arms that the hall players do. On the arm of the coliegian depends a college letter. and he's going to do his level best to get the ball there. On the ball players arm depends his, bread and butter, and he's going to take care of it. so when the ball player finds his arm

Sharon. Pa. March 2s.--It required but . few minutes this afternoon for the preliminary hearing of James H. Boyle. charged with the abduction of Willie whitla. Two questions and an- swers made up the proceedings
 "What iS your name?" asked Justice 8. S. Gilbert.
 James H.. Boyle" was the reply.
 DO you want . hearing onN the charge of abduction nowr he was asked.
 Not at this time." he replied. and the hearing was over.
 ~BAn was fixed at se5.ooo, which 1t is said Boyle has no chance of securing, and the prisoner was returned to the jail at Mercer on the first train.
 About 800 persons. impelled by curi- osity, surrounded the station where Boyle was waiting in mortal terror for the train. but not the slightest demon- stration against him was made or in dicated.
 Tonight it is stated Mrs Boyle will nor be brought here for hearing at all. The statement that she was Helen McDermott Is doubted here. from the fact that not one of the McDermott family has extended her any aid so far as the public knows, or put in an ap- pearance since her arrest. She has been positively identified by sharon people as James Boyle's wife. but be- yond that, her identity is not known here,
 The Whitla family will leave tomor- row for some place which they refuse to name, in search of quiet and rest af- ter their recent narrowing experiences.
