George Goulding Of Toronto. who holds

his career as a walker by q mere acct

Goulding had never taken part In q

Indifferent success. On Jan. l. 1908, the

At tho time of the London Olympiad
in 1903 Goulding was among those Sc
lected for the Canadian team. despite
the fact that he had been walking less
than six months. He was not seasoned
enough to cope with the great English
walkers. but Gouldfng's perfect and fair
style excited favorable comment from
even the soul mouthA English ex-
pertS. Ths Engffah press commsnted
favorably IN his performance, but later
when he began to mash records these

when WAGNER CAME NEAR
GOING IN VAUDEVILLE

Larry Latoie, tho Cleveland Ameri-
cans great second baseman. almost
went into vaudeville last fall. He was
willing and anxious, so anxious that he
tried to induce Hans Wagner to go on
the stage with him. Hans promised
and then backed out, and thereby
hangs a tale.
Bill Gray, secretary Of the New York
National league club and formerly a
theatrical manager, had a batting act
for Larry, Wagner. Cobb and Collins.
He had a machine that tested the
speed Of a ball off the bat. A ball was
thrown up automatically In front of

was to be nightly batting contests be-

Here is the tale Of Hans' promise and

WITH THE INDIAN ATHLETES

One of the best known athletes In the
country Is Frank Mount Pleasant. who
was graduated from Carlisle and holds
records for the quarter mile, 100 yards,
220 yards and the broad jump.
He was a famous football player and
represented the United States IN the
Olympic games In Europe two years
ago. He was graduated from the aca-
demic department of Dickinson college
last year and was the first indian to
get the diploma and degree Of this col
lege. He has been selected al athletic
director In charge OF all student sports
at Franklin and Marshall college. Ian
caster. Pa, where he resides.
Another OF the Carlisle students who
had the honor of being an All Ameri-
ear quarterback is James Johnson. a
Stookbridge Indian. OF Wisconsin. He
was considered one of the most Won
derful athletes of his day. After being
graduated from Carlisle he entered the
dental department. of the Northwestern
university, at Chicago, working his
way. and was graduated in 1907.
He is now at San Juan. Porto Rico,

1.-THE man I killed was a remarkably
clever Denver wrestler" said Olson.
He was sailing under another name.
So was L. The Colorado grappler had
been cleaning up everything down that
way and seemed invincible. A friend
wrote me that l could make 81. 800 by
defeating the stranger. That looked
pretty soft, and as there are only four
men In the world who can throw me
Gotch, Hackenschmidt, Zbysco and
Mahmout-I decided to slip down to
Amarillo and cop" the $500. We
wrestled on q Saturday night. Both
Of us were billed under assumed names.
The Colorado mar was bigger than
me and was some wrestler. He knew
that I was there with the real wrestling
stuff the moment We clinched. After
We had been working for fifteen min

was a better man than I had figured on

always keep that way, because YOU
never can tell what's going to happen
in the wrestling game.
After working thirty minutes with
the Colorado chap | tried TO place him.
He was as strong as an OK, very clever
and game as pebble. I asked who he
was and where he learned TO wrestie
between breathing spells, but he only
smiled and wanted to know who l was.
I told him the truth, still he refused TO
reveal his own Identity except to say
that the party who was seconding him
was his father. Well, after we had
been graphing for fifty minute 1 be-
gan to get tired. The stranger was not

tiers father jumped on the mat and
made Il terrible scene. My friends
hurried me from the place as fast as
we could get away and took the first
train out of town.
The Colorado wrestler Is the second
man have killed in graphing matches.
Five years ago I tackled a big negro in
Montreal. He was twenty-five pounds
heavier than nae and was about the
most brutal grappler L ever met. He
didn't hno much about the game, but
his strength was something terrible,
and he resorted to the most brutal
tricks to punish me. Finally I got a
good grip on him and tossed him off
the stage, Hs landed out in the par
quet, his head hitting the back OF an
iron chair. That ended his wrestling
career. and there was a job for the I'M
dertaker. But that Amarillo affair was
entirely different. I got 3t,6eo for win
ming, but I'd give everything l have in
tina world, and I'm far from being a
poor man, to bring that poor Colorado
boy Jack to life again"
