SPRINT MARK
is TOO FAST

Arthur Duffy in the Boston Post
says:
| see the westerners are claiming
that at last the 8 20 seconds sprinter
for the hundred yards has been dis
covered. They claim that In the per-
son OF Givtn Henri, the Texan, they
have found the champion who prom
ises to make all heretofore champions
fall into insignificance. Perhaps such
might be the case, but the willy" ones
have sprung this tale before Some
years ago In Rush and Maybury and
few others they claimed the same
thing, and while they were wonderful
short distance runners they failed to
show any such ability when they came
east to tackle the fasteners. II was
only recently also that Dan Kelly was
credited as being the marvel, but all
the critics who saw the young Oregon
ian In action claimed he was an ex-
ploded phenom.
This Given Henri might prove an
exception to the rule. Some day the
8 2-5 seconds man is sure to come
along, but the question now IL will
young Henri do the trick. The Texan
as the outsider champion, outstripped
all the fasteners In the furlong dash,
and many claim that had 1t not been
for false start he would have won
the hundred. Henri must surely be a
wonderful runner, but we will have to
see more OF him before We believe
this 9 2-5 seconds tale.

NAVIN is LIBERAL
WITH HIS PLAYERS

This, from Chicago paper, Just
about hits the transforming nail on
he head:
Section (revised) in the articles
pr agreement binding between bail
player and magnate OF the American
eague was played both ways from
he middle by President Frank Nav In
pr the Detroit Tigers. President John
BON OF the youngest circuit and his
colleagues last winter approved this
Regulation, which was outlined and
hdopted chiefly as a barrier against
transforming during the on seasons.
Here's the added section:
"Ninth-The party of the sec
bnd part will not be permitted at any
Time, either during the playing sea-
BON or before the commencement or
bitter the close thereof. TO participate
n any exhibition baseball games. In
floor baseball. basket ball or football,
Except that the consent OF the party
'bf the first part has first been secured
n writing"
Prior TO the ratification OF the added
bection President Johnson fiat-footed-
~ promised Wholesale crusade
against transforming, branding this
BORT OF play in foreign lands black
bye for the pastime. Moreover. the
players engaged daily flirted with pos
bible injuries liable 10 disable them
FOR all time. or perhaps to shorten
heir days OF usefulness In fast com
'pany.
The Detroit times., 1910-11-11

Especial stress was laid upon the
failure OF Addie Joss, Cleveland's star
hurler, TO remain in shape during the
long campaign, high moguls OF the
league attributing his slump TO mid
winter playing. The new rule was
preached after Connie Mack's Ath-
letics had whisked through Chicago
for long and successful stand on the
coast and after the Detroit club had
descended upon Cuba.
President Nayin Is one OF the
American league magnates TO see the
rule through clear lenses. According
TO the Tiger chief, it's all right for the
boys TO sojourn In Cuba II the coin
is there TO be plucked. President Shibe
OF the Athletics is another American
Lacquer approving transforming, CIV
ing his champions permission To play
in Havana. whittier they will soon be
pointed.
Hut to interpret the rule in another
light Mr.. Navin wired Tyrus Cobb.
his brighter twinkler advising the
latter to withdraw from his scheduled
match race with Napoleon Rucker
on the Atlanta motor speedway. Tyrus
and the Brooklyn left-hander were
booked TO do a three-hcat event for
the championship OF Georgia and the
big leagues, but Mr.. Navin allowed as
how good ball player intact was
more TO be desired than the kind Of
athlete likely to emerge from wild
and woully dash around the big oval.
