LOOKS LIKE GooDALE
 TO STROKE HARVARD
Set the Pace for Last Years Freshmen
 Crew That Trimmed Vale.

With tha-cal for crew candidates for the Harvard varsity eight only fortnight distant, there is some specu- lation among the followers of the row ing sport St Cambridge as to the man who will stroke the varsity shell this spring, but it looks as though Coach Wray would not have to hunt very far for first-class man to fill this seat.
 Com GoOdale, who captained his the crew to victory over the Yale youngsters. is regarded as almost a certainty for this most important po- sition in the varsity eight.
 Goodale is one of the hustiest all- round athletes. in the university He stands over feet, weighing ITO and is of an unusually strong build He first won fame at Harvard by playing on the 1913 football eleven, which, though far lighter than the average first year team turned out at Cam and came out victorious in the cham pionship game with the Eli freshmen.
 Goodale played left guard and was considered one of the steAdiest men on the team. He might have become a candidate for the varsity eleven this last fall but tn rowing authorities prefer to keep their best men out of football work, claiming that gridiron play stiffens theS rowing mustles.
 From the very first of the rowing practice last spring Goodale was the crew. He was the best man in the boat, and it is conceded that the suc- cess of the eight was largely due to ,his efforts. He seemed to be a, natural stroke, and drove the men behind him with life and dash.

cY PERKINS TRADED
 FOR A CATCHER.
Former Norwich Player Goes to Al
 hany From Springfield.

'sCy" Perkins, who helped out at last season. has been traded to the AL bany club of the New York state league for Catcher E. G. Porte. The deal was g. straight one, no money be- ing given on either end. Negotiations for the catcher have been pending for few days, as the Wilmington eS.. co club put in u bid for Porte's services. However, Springfield won out and Manager Teller feels that he has se- cured a clever bael1step.
 Porte is a former Pennsylvania State college player and after leaving school with big ball reputation he went with the Wilmington (N. C.) club, which has been so anxious to get him back. Then the Trenton club got him by draft and he was later sold to Albany.
 Manager Teller and several sother Connecticut league men saw Porte work out in one of Albany's s games toward the close of last season and all noted what a peppery playe he is. As a batsman, Porte has still to become famous but in bacl1stopping he is considered the proper thing.
 Jimmie Ball of last seasons club will be first catcher the coming season and Porte will fight it out with anoth- CT man and Larkin for the job as change catcher. Larkin is now q stu dent at Massachusetts Tech" and will not be able to report until June 1. Zel- Ter intends to secure another backstcp and the new one with Ball and Porte will make the trip to Asbury Park. About a dozen pitchers will be taken to the seaside, and that means that there are three more booked.

NO DATE AGREED ON FOR YALE-HARVARD RACE.
Harvard Will Not Agree to June p
 on The Thames.

Captain Frost and Robert Whittier of Yale have returned to New Haven after an unsuccessful attempt to per- suade the Harvard rowing manage ment to agree to have the annual row ing% regatta on the Thames river be- tween the Blue and the Crimson rowed June 22.
 Captain Cutler of Harvard is adam ant against race on that day. and in- sists that it be roWed on June 29- Both arrangements are desirous of having their own way, and long, bitter con- troversy is possible.
 Harvard and Yale are having more than their share of squalls of late, and each is showing but little desire to arbitrate.
 When the dates were assigned for the annual baseball series with Yale the second contest was found to be sched- uled here on June 23, which is liar wards class day, and which will inter fere considerably with the celebration of the day.

IS PLANK SLIPPING?
Some Think Veteran Southpaw of Attn
 cities is Losing Ground.

Is Eddie Plank, former star Of the Athletics, slipping?
 By some, Connie Mack's failure to use Eddie in the worlds series Is talk en as an indication that the willy man. ager of the Athletics is losing confI- denee in the ability of his star port sider.
 While to seme it may have been e surprise that Mack failed te use Plank, still those on the inside re- garded it as excellent judgment on the part of Connie. Tho Cubs have always been decidedly partial to southpaw and there was every reason to believe that Plank would have been no excep- ton to the rule.
 Plank's showing last year in the American league, when he won 16 and lost 10 games, is not quite up to the Plank standard.
 The fact that he was taken out ot seven games because the opposition was getting entirely too familiar witt, his offerings. is another bit of evidence

FOOTBALL MEN SHOULD
 MAKE GOOD oARSMEN
Yale Coach Sees No Reason Against Entering Both Branches of Athletics.

In discussing football men for Yale crews Coach John Kennedy says:
 Football men to make good oars men must go in for crew work before their last year in college. They can not expect to win their laureIs for three years in football and then in their senior year do brilliant work as oarsmen. There have been at Yale in years past some football men who would have been star oarsmen if they had gone in for that sport early in their college work.
 There is nothing to prevent men from going in for both branches of sport if they are fitted for both. The crew work during the late winter and spring keeps football candidates in better trim for football the following fall than if they dropped all training g at the close of the football season. Rowing does not injure football men, whereas football may injure oarsmen. While there may be and are instances in which brilliant football players mako poor oarsmen, there are many good football men who could dc good work in 2 boat"

NEVER A GAMER PITCHER.
Radhourne Stands as Model, Says
 Hardie Richardson.

Hardie Richardson says Radbourne was the greatest pitcher who ever toed the slab. He was a man who never despaired of victory, no matter how the tide of fortune flowed, saws Rich ardson. He did not know the meaning or the word quit Why, I recall a time when he set 2. record that has never been approached. In one week ne pllcned five games and won all of them. Three of these were victories over Buffalo, and in the three games ne pitched 37 innings altogether Twice ne> peat Detroit, though it took him 2S innings to do it. Just think of what tnAt meant! Sixty-five tough innings. or meSe than seven ordinary games, TOT one pitcher in week Where could you find pitcher today who WoQd even warm up five times But 1tadoourne thought nothing of it.
 TWO games ill which the Old Hoss yorked l remember well. It was in lS9O, during the Brotherhood days In the frst contest Radbourne pitched Tor Boston against Brooklyn. It was one or Radbourne's few poor days and Brooklyn simply hit him here, there and everywhere. They smothered Rad- bourne by the discouraging score of 27 to 6. It was one of the real slaugh- terS Of the season. But Radbourne never thought of quitting. His team mates asked him to retire, but Charlie stuck to his guns. The more they hit nina the harder he gritted his teeth and the harder he tried. He took his medicine like little gentleman, with out a whimper. To the taunts of Brooklyn he>would simply grunt to his teammates: well, we'll get them yet, see if we don't" The next day Rad bourne declared he was going to pitch again. lis teammates laughed at him. When he went out to warm up they thought him 2 fit subject for an insane asylum; the manager even threatened to have him arrested. But there was no stopping Radbourne. And he had got his revenge on Brooklyn, all right. He shut out the team that had mas sacred him the day before, allowing only one Brocklynite to reach first base.
