Merely idle gossip.

Barney Oldf1eld, who has tried every
other form OF publicity, is making him
self look foolish by his talk Of Jim JEFF
fries being doped before the fight with
Jack Johnson.
To start with, Oldfeld was not on the
scene of the disaster and whatever in
formation he might have comes from
Jeffries, who is naturally prejudiced.
Practically every fight expert now
agrees that Jeffries' miserable showing
on July was due to the fact that, up
to a couple of days before entering the
ring. he thought Johnson was to lay
down. When he learned from a reliable
source that his opponent was deter
mined to go the limit and exchange
blow for blow, the surprise was so
great that the white man was COM
pletely ruined physically. He realized
that he had not done the proper amount
of work. knew he was not in shape,
and for two days before the match
could not sleep.
He entered the ring a wreck and was
easy. picking. That's about the true

Long Trip Is Planned
For Cathedral Team

Ono of the most pretentious trips ever
attempted by a scholastic athletic or
ganization of this city is being ar
ranged by the Cathedral School base
ball team for the Easter holidays.
Gus Todd is manager, and he is in
communication with a number of promi-
nent prep school teams in the East. in
Lawrenceville. Haverford, Mer-

will extend over nearly a week and will
include three or four games

Can Gotch get ready?


! Supposing that Hackenschmidt Sue
ceeds in his plan to lure Frank Gotch
out OF retirement for a CHAMPIONSHIP
wrestling match, the same old question
of coming back viii be repeated. and
repeated with no one knowing the real
answer until after the men have actu-
ally been on the mat.
That triple-plated trimming which the
wise ones got last Fourth of July will
never be forgotten by those who staked
their currency on the blackhand victim.
The lesson Of Jeffries' downfall will not
soon be forgotten, and when the grap-
piers peel for action IT Is doubtful IL
there will be near as much money
staked as there would have, been had
the match been held previous to last
Independence Day.
While Gotch has always made Il q
point to keep in the best possible condi-
ton on his farm in Iowa and has had
the advantage of several months Of
workouts each season, he has arrived at
the age, after a long and active career,
where It Is doubtful II he Is as powerful
as he was in 1905, when he made the
Russian Lion look foolish.
So marked was Gotchs superiority on
that day that he might win easily the
next time out, but the ones who thought
they knew something about Jefries will
probably be found unwilling to back
their Judgment should the two wrestling
giants meet.

Pick Team Early.

There are about half a dozen Ma
tlonals whose future relations with
the Washington club will be decided
before many weeks have elapsed
after the players report in Georgia.
McAleer appears reasonble enough
to give everyone a fair trial, but he
does not propose to carry players
along. hoping against hope that they
may be able to regain the form which
once made them famous. He will
give all to understand that they must
strike their stride early, for by the
time the season opens Mike Kahoe
will be sent out scouting for men to
I'LL the positions that appear weakest
In order to talk business, Kahoe
will have to have a string of men
available for trading purposes, and II
is McAleer's intention to have this
list ready when the team reaches the
Capital. At the outset of a race 1t
is no easy matter to get managers
to let go of good ball players, so the
will have to be pretty well defined
before Kahoe can approach any minor
league owner on the proposition of
obtaining any player that might ap-
pear promising.
With six men of major league expert
ence on his hands, however. the scout
should be able to get action, and Nc
Aleer does not propose to handicap Ka-
hoe by being undecided as to whom he
is willing to trade.
The Washington times., 1911-01-11
PLAYERS Not Wanted.

One of the few things that Jimmy Nc
Aleer has really admitted has been that
he was never an active bidder for, Jack
Flynn. the Pittsburg first baseman.
When the report was first circulated
that Washington wanted Flynn McAleer
simply said that he would be willing to
receive the player should Pittsburg send
him this way. At the league meeting
Fred Clarke, the Pirates leader, spoke
to MCAleer about Flynn, but the head
of the Nationals simply answered that
he had never even seen the man.
Clarke talked of a financial PROPOSE
ton and McAleer said that 1t might
prove a good investment, but nothing
further was done In the matter.
McAleer always disclaimed all respon-
sibility for the story about Flynn and
Clarke soon saw that the Washington
the idea of bringing the first baseman
here.
The same in the case of Johnny
Priest. When New York sent in the
name Of this player, McAleer did not
want him, so a waiver was wired to
the Yankees. There was the usual
tempest but, aside from confirming the
waiver. McAleer said nothing, but just
stood pat.
And so the prospect is that James r.
McAleer, and James R. McAleer alone
will be IN the pilot house from now on
He will brook no interference from
ahy source, but he will run the Ma
tionals as he sees fit, knowing full we'll
that next October he will be called
upon to give an account of his steward

of the club he has been selected to

Cathedral in baseball.

Coach Green, of the Cathedral School.
is now looking forward to the baseball
season and believes that he will be
able to whip together a team to do as
we'll in baseball as his football team
did last fall.
One Of the handicaps under which
Cathedral labored last spring was
rather limited number OF candidates, but
judging from the assurances which the
coach has already received there should
be no dearth of material in the spring.
There Is a most healthy athletic spirit
at the Wisconsin avenue school, and
the institution Is fortunate in having a
coach who is familiar with all branches
Of sport.

Wlber was a success.

II Is source of qualification to A A.
U. supporters in Washington to learn
that the South Atlantic Association Of
ficials will follow the campaign outlined
by the late Dr. Wiber.
For {. while it was feared that matters
might be revolutionized and the hold
weakened, but, judging by the reports
from Baltimore, the sane-and-safe
policy will be followed, and Washington
athletes will have nothing to fear,
either from more stringent or more
elastic regulations.

Quirk to Atlanta.
One of the first representatives of The
| Washington club to reach Atlanta will
be Trainer ice Quirk.
Realizing that the worst drawback OF
the whole of last campaign was the
miserable start which the Nationals
got, McAleer is more determined than
shape before the northward trip Is
started.
The number of veterans who 60 to
Hot Springs will be larger than at any
other time in the history of the club,
ana each of these players received with
their contracts strict orders that the
stay at the springs is not to be simply
a pleasure trip, but an opportunity to
prime them for the more strenuous
work they may expect when they get
The work in Georgia in the spring will
be harder than the program at Norfolk
last year. Man for man. the Nationals
do not compare very favorably with
most of the club they have to meet,
once the championship race gets under
way and with tiIC Western trip coming
early. It will be necessary TO rush the
players SO they can get away decently
and gain by that advantage at least.
While McAleer is a believer in hard
work in the South,-he also understands
that the work can be overdone, and IL
is IN order to avert overtraining that he
will have Quirk at his elbow from the
outset.
1t will be the young ones in particular
that the trainer will have to watch, but
he will also keep a close eye on the
others, and If he does not bring the
Nationals back to Washington in
proper condition II will be a decided dis
appointment to this experienced ham
der of athletes.
Many a promising career on the
diamond has been ruined by players

Boost for new rules.

One OF the most effective systems thai
universities OF the North have found to
enlist promising scholastic athletes, Is
to send coaches and captains to address
the prep football squads at the annual
banquets.
At a recent event of this sort Brown
was represented bv Coach Robinson and
Captain Sprackling and in discussing
the revised gridiron code, the coach
said: ~
THE rules should be left alone and
given a fair trial for a few seasons and
more attention paid to the development
Of players and teams. This constant
changing OF the rules does not improve
the game, and more changes Will make
1t worse. Leave the rules alone: give
them a chance and the game will take
care Of itself"
