Records for the A. A. U.

Joe England, the official Handicapped
for the South Atlantic Association OF
the A. A. u, today sent me the fol-
lowing. which should interest the ath-
letes of Washington:
The handicapping department OF the
S. A. A urgently requests that every
athlete in the District send to the Of
fee Of the Handicapped a complete list
of all his performances and records,
whether in open or closed meets, since
such athlete has been in competition.
This request is made for the following
reason:
Less than a year ago the handicap
per was provided with the means and
facilities for compiling all the neces-
sary athletic data of the s. A. A. The
t1les are now large and contain much
interesting data, but they can only be
made complete by the interest and CO.
operation Of each athlete, as above sug-
gested. The data, which It Is hoped Will
be received in response to this re-
quest, will be used for the purposes OF
alteration and amplihcation OF the ex-
listing records. This is a matter which
each and every competitor, no matter
what his age or ability may be, should
take pride in. These records and data
will undoubtedly be of value to the
athletes and officials Of the years to
come"
All data should be sent to J. I. Eng
land, 213 CORTLAND street, Baltimore.

Letter from fan.
A. N. Nally has written me as fol-
lows:
1t is, indeed, very gratifying to
note the heavy thinking displayed and
the rare judgment exercised by the
manager of our Nationals. He has now
taken Clarence Walker out of the
regular lineup so that he may be de-
veloped on the bench as a great out
fielder, and has injected into the fray
Veteran Lelivelt in order that IL pos
sible more games may be won. regard
less of any desire on the part of the
fans that the matter of games won be
left out of the accounting, and that
an honest effort be made to rebuild the
team with young blood. Apropos OF this
man Walker, II may be said that his
future Is being ruined early in his career
by the insistence. as we learn from
the newspapers, of the manager and
Third Baseman Elberfeld. that he re-
frain from using a long bat and try
to change the style of batting which the
player has been using since childhood.
"Of lberfeld II may be said that he
is a grand little player, and no doubt
knows the game. II he does not, he
has no one to blame but himself as he
has been connected with 1t long enough
to learn something. In this connection
1t makes one very weary to note that
some of the patrons of the game want
EIberfeld made manager. After the
exhibition he gave as manager of the
New York team, it is really a joke to
think that any one could urge him for
that position and spoil his future. On
the other hand there Is a certain in
clination to knock Player Schaefer,
whereas the player has just the sunny
disposition t,nd the brains to develop
into great manager and keep harmony
among the players"

DIET Fur THE TUBERCULOSIS
General Idea That Too Much Food
Cannot Be Given, 10 Shown to Be
Erroneous.

Many traditions with regard to the
feeding Of tuberculosis patients and
with regard to food In general. are
given severe blows in a series of ar
ticles published in the October num-
ber of the Journal of Outdoor Life. the
official organ of the National Associ.
alton for the Study and Prevention Of
Tuberculosis. DR.. John R. Murlin OF
New York. assistant professor Of
physiology at the Cornell university
medical college. holds in an article en-
titled THE Dynamic Principles Of Nu-
triton" that consumptive will gain
weight and do well on three pints Of
whole milk. eight ounces Of cream,
five ounces of milk sugar, six eggs and
two slices of buttered toast as a ra-
tion for "a hours. The entire diet,
with the exception of the bread and
butter could be prepared in advance
and served for a cost of about fifty
cents for the day. Miss Cecilia Flick
OF the Henry Phipps institute OF Phil
adelphta also offers some sample diets
which the ordinary family can prepare
for even less than fifty cents a day.
III. DdNiu II. Ly uan Vi WdiiuSioiu,
Conn, and DR.. Paul B. Johnson of
Washington. D. c., both agree that
the ordinary person eats too much,
and that the old notions about stuffing
a tuberculosis patient at all times and
seasons have been proven false. DR..
Lyman holds that eggs are not nee
essary article of the consumptive's s
diet, and that q tuberculosis patient
should eat anything that agrees with
him that is nourishing. He thinks
that tuberculosis patient should eat
only a little more than a person i,
ordinary good health.
