Invitation Assured
Washington Schools

That the Washington schools will re-
ceive an invitation from the Univer-
sity of Virginia to participate in the
scholastic meet held at Charlottesville
during Easter week, is In a measure
assured by Manager r. r. Cecil, of
Virginia.
In talking over the situation Cecil said
he would do all in his power to obtain
for the Washington schools an invita-
ton. He said the Washington alumni
have sounded the management on the
proposition, and that the invitation
would probably be forthcoming.
Pop Lanigan. the veteran Virginia
trainer, was much impressed by George
Hamilton's win in the open quarter,
and remarked that Williams, who won
tn 1,OOO yards for Virginia in the George
Washington meet, was the only Wash
ington boy that Virginia had had in
years.
There was a small Washington delega-
ton in the Richmond college meet last
winter, and if the invitation to the
scholastic meet at Charlottesville Is
given II is more than likely that Wash
ipgton schools will be strongly repre-
sented.

Davis Signs Eleventh
Year With Athletics

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 7.-Harry
Davis, captain of the worlds champion
Athletics. set all rumors at rest regard
ing his becoming manager of an Amer
lean League club by signing to play
With Manager Mack in 1911.
1t will be Captain Davis eleventh year
with the Athletics. Manager Mack was
very much pleased in getting Davis sis
nature to a contract.
Almost at regular periods since the
close of the season last fall Davis name
has been connected with several clubs
as prospective manager. At one time ii
was intimated that the Washington
club desired his services. From Cleve-
land came the report that President
Somers was anxious to purchase his re-
lease from the Athletics, in order 20
place him at the head of the Nap team,
while many rumors have emanated from
St. Louis that President Hedges and
his associates were angling for Davis
menting upon his signing contract
yesterday, Manager Mack had the fol-
lowing to say:
Harry has acted splendidly through
out the entire matter. He has had d
number of opportunities to go with 9TH
er clubs, and l didn't want TO handicap
him any in preparing for the future.
Harry, though, said that he would stick
to the Athletics as long as we needed
his services, and 1 am we'll pleased to
have him with us again this year. While
l was not exactly worried about Davis,
nevertheless, some of the offers that he
had were so tempting that l feel better
now that The whole thing has been set
tied by his deciding finally to remain
with US'

Yankees Eagerly Await
New Manager Chase

NEW YORK, Feb. Hal Chase il
storm-bound on the way East from San
Francisco.
Mrs Chase informed President Far
reIl at the headquarters of the Yankees
that the manager would not get home
until late this afternoon or tomorrow.
There are a number of things for the
new manager to consider before start
ing for the training camp. RumOrs of
a trade between the Yankee and the st.
Louis Browns have been circulated, and
Chase must have his say. Hedges wants
to trade Hartzell for Jimmy Austin, but
1t is possible that the new manager
thinks too much of the peppery little
third baseman to part with him in spite
of his weak hitting
Laporte, however, may be traded If
he would be acceptable to Hedges. IL
not, the White Sox have shown a leaL-
ing toward the substitute infielder Of
the Yankees, and If Farrell wants to
get rid of him Laporte might find a
perth with Comiskey's nine. 1t is un-
likely that anything definite along the
lines of trade will be done before the
meeting of the American League owners
in Chicago on February IA.

Tigers Refuse to Play
The Cubs in March

CHICAGO, Feb. 7.-Evidently the De-
troIt Tigers still feel the pain of the
lashlpg given them by the Chicago
Cups in the autumns of 1907 and 1903,
tor they have gracefully turned down
the plan of meeting Frank Chance and
his warriors in combat at New Orleans
in March.
Word 10 this effect was received from
Detroit. President Navin, of the Ameri-
can League club, being quoted as say
ing he could see no way for his team to
do battle with the National League
champions.
Much as We would like to meet
them" said Navin, and there is a hint
OF sarcasm in that, II can see no way
for a series of games. We are booked
for practice games up until March q
and have already closed to meet the
Cincinnati Reds, so it looks like buy
training trip without taking on the
Cubs.
"The Philadelphia National League
cluD wants to meet us, too, but will
be turned down for the same reason. l
have not had any direct word from the
Cubs officials, but rumors have come
to me that Charley Murphy was de-
sirous of playing a series with the
Tigers. I'm sorry, but / guess We'll
have to disappoint Charles this time"

Dan Reed Is Urged
AS Coach for Cornell

ITHACA, N. Y, Feb. Ralph s.
Kent, Cornell, 'O3, formerly center on
the football team and a wellknown
alumnus, is out with a letter urging the
selection of Dan Reed as permanent
coach of the Cornell football team, with
power to pick his assistants, with sal
AIRY commensurate to his work.
Kent urges alumni to quit knocking
and constantly demanding a change in
the coaching system. stating that he
can recall in the last ten years how
Cornell has tried them all. He recalls
that Haughton and Sanford, Reed and
Starbuck, and Warner preceded the
graduate coaching system, and recalls
Reed and Starbuck's team was the only
one that beat Pennsylvania.
According to Kent, it is time to stop
knocking and to give one system a
chance. He urges that Dan Reed be
made the incipient Old Man Courtney of
football, and that If let alone he will
work out Cornell's football salvation.
He thinks the faculty should cooperate
also in the matter Of schedules.

Baseball prospects at the Cathonc

yesterday when it was learned that the
team may lose the services OF Capt
Martin A. Topin, who is severely III
with pneumonia at his home In New
York.
Coupled with his sickness. Tobin Is
suffering from an old injury received In

enough to keep him from getting In any
kind of condition, even should he re-
cover from his sickness within a month
The candidates for the bal lteam are
all wrought up over the condition OF
their captain and feel they will be
greatly Handicapped without MS t xalut

as one of the heaviest hltters On last

team.
Tine candidates for the baseball team
will be called out during the latter part
of this week for light work IN the
gymnasium. Coach Noonan will nave

Dected a meeting of the athletic asso-
citation will be held shortly for the pur-

Well washed hands and billed
shirt do not necessarily mean a
white soul; but the man who keeps
his body and his clothes clean is
more likely to have more consider
alton for his morals than has the
one who lives in perpetual dirt.
Some years ago there was formed
in England, and spread throughout
all other civilized countries, an as
sociation known as the information
al Needle Guild" The members
we're women, who pledged them
selves to contribute to charity a
certain number of new and clean
garments during each year. A cir
Gle of the society was formed here
in Memphis, and the members did
their full duty.
The plea made for this asSocia-
ton by its founders was that a man,
woman or child was better helped
and encouraged by the gift of such
garments than by things taken out
of the family cedar chest, half-worn
and oftentimes greatly soiled. 1t
was held that an old suit Of clothes
carried with it, in some intangible
way, something of its own worn-out
nature. The grease spots, the torn
pockets, the ragged cuffs were as
unseen weights that kept the mans
ambition at low ebb and left him in
the pauper class.
On the contrary, a suit that was
new, that bore the impress of no
other mans carelessness or poverty,
became in some subtle way an in
centive to higher things. The beg
gar who donned it was lifted to the
plane of eentility, and if there was
one spark of manhood left in him
he would try to live up to the new
conditions.
It is on this evidence that we
build the principle t h at clean
clothes help to make clean morals.
And we believe that those Of our
city who have the training or are
interested in the welfare of the
little brothers of the rich" must be-
