The Rrutaf Truth.

The stout lady on the summer hotel
veranda Ia blushing %furiously.
F~uriously is a strong word, but 1t is
the best word for the place.
Her fond friends tell her that her
figure is, if anything. a little too slen-
der, but out of the mouths OF babes
and stockings m the truth.
Yonder ~six-year-oid boy with the
whip played fishing who will be my
Ash" he cried.
IN be your fish, dear" the stout
lady answered.
"Aw, | want q Ssh. not a whale"
the u~nfeeliIg hoy retorted.
Is it astonishing that babes and
sucking are not elcome at summer
hotels?

THOMPSON TALKS new RULES
Famous Referee Would Abolish 90
yard Zone.

Mike Thompson. the famous football
official and former Georgetown graduate
manager OF athletics, spent Sunday in
town visiting friends. Mr.. Thompson UNI
pired the Army-Navy game in Philadel-
phia and his work was praised by both
teams after the battle.
Commenting on the new rules and pos
sible changes, Mr.. Thompson said
While / am not in a position to state
authoritatiyely. yet I hardly think the
rule makers viii institute many changes
IN the code for 1911. There has been a
lot OF talk about doing away with the
20-yard zone. and, for my part, I would
Ike 20 see this done. II has also been
suggested that the rule prohibiting any
aid to the man carrying the ball bs
amended. and that one man be allowed
10 hike him. have not the slightest
Idea what will be done
THE new rules have undoubtedly made
the game safer, and I would be the last
man TO advocate changes that would fur

Mr. Thompson is professor OF chemis-
try az Washington College and coaches

football eleven this fall although com.
posed OF green material. made splendid
showing. and since Mr.. Thompson has
been al Chestertown he has virtually
put Washington College on the athletic
map.

by WILLIAM PEET.

One OF the new players 20 be tried out
by Manager Jimmy McAleer next spring
viii be Charley Conway, OF Youngstown,
Ohio. an outhelder, with the reputation Of
being a heavy hitter.
There is n possibility that McAleer VIII
try Conway behind the bat in case the
latter does not fill the bill in the fleld.
a it is claimed by many that a mighty
good catcher was spoiled when Conway
was shifted TO the outer garden.
Two years ago Conway was the best
backstop in the Pennsylvania and West
Virginia League, playing with the Char
leroi club, He did not finish out the sea-
son for financial reasons. and was signed
up by Youngstown. of the o. and p.
League. Youngstown being Conway S
home. AS the Youngstown management
was well fortified with catching ma
terial, Conway was induced 10 try out
field, which he did with considerable sue
cess.
Last season he continued as an out
fielder, and ranked up among the top
notchers, but IL is claimed that Conway s
Place IS behind the bat, and McAleer may
give the young man chance TO see what
he can do IN this position.
The writer's informant also states that
COnway's habits ara exemplary. He IS
described as Weighing 1S5 pounds, feet
10 inches tall. and twenty-four years old.
AS a catcher Conway's throwing and hit
ting were his strong points. his one weak
ness being on the bases, but his slowness
did not handicap him so much In the
minor leagues. as lie usually stung the
ball hard, oftentimes for extra sacks.
Before Manager MeAleer left town last
fail he made tho statement when the
question Of trades was brought up that
he would trade anybody on the Nationals
II by so doing he thought he could
strengthen hisssclub. ali Of which fur
hlshes a good excuse for story that
Gabby Street may be traded.
The only deal McAleer would consider
for Street would be one involving another
catcher and catchers Of major league
caliber are scarce enough these days. SO
IL looks very much as if Gabby would
continue 10 wear a Washington uniform
Tor some time 10 come.

President Taylor. OF the Boston Red
Sox, has delivered an ultimatum. All
players who sign with him for 1911 must
give their best efforts TO the club or else
leave promptly for other fields OF en-
deavor. The strikers and those who are
out for the long-distanoe highball record
will find no welcome on the Boston team.
President Taylor says: II certainly in
tend 70 make a few changes before an
other season. Discipline IL 10 prevail
In the years since I controlled this club
we have followed a policy OF trusting inc
plicitly 10 the ball players. allowing them
10 conduct themselves OF tho bali field as
they saw 1T. and relying upon them 10
do their share or the work on the ball
field. Last seasons results show the fall
lacy OF that system.
"On the ball field one OF the big things
1 am going TO insist upon this season is
the running out OF hits. The pitchers
have been the chief offenders Ia this re-
spect for the past two seasons.

hard game and comes 20 bat in the
seventh or eighth inning with two men

Owen Moran's victory over Battling
Nelson does not make the Briton a cham
pion. Not that we want 20 rob Moran OF
any glory. but the fact that he knocked
out the Dane does Aot make him any
greater than he was before he entered
the ring with Nelson last Saturday.
Moran did exactly what was expected
OF him. He whipped man who has
been steadily going back for year or
more. He beat a has-been. When VOL
CAST stopped Nelson and won the light
weight championship It proved that the
once durable Dane had seen his best
days. He tried to come back. but like
many others. failed. He met an ordinary
boy named la Fargo a few weeks ago
and was fortunate 70 secure a draw
This showed how far back the Dane had
gone. He was really made TO order for
Moran.
Nelson, unlike other champions we have
lad. lived a clean life, Fast living was
not the cause of his undOing lie simply
wore himself out fighting. Ills downfall
had TO come. Nelson, when things were
coming his way, was a thrifty lad He
saved his money and through sensible
investment has accumulated a snug for
tune. But his reputation will live for
years. He was a great battler. Nelson
never was even awkwardly clever. In
all his battles he had TO take a bad
beating. but was such a glutton for pun
ishment that his opponents wore them
selves out trying 10 beat him to the
floor. When his opponent grew weaker
Nelson became stronger. 1t was this
punishment that gradually robbed him
OF the stamina. 1t can always be truly
said that Nelson really beat himself. He
wore himself out fighting.
