KEEPS PITCHERS ARM GOOD
Be Excellent for Condition
Ing TWIrlers.

According to Leon, alias Red"
Ames, the merry little game of golf
is the best music in the world for
keeping pitchers arm in condition
during the winter.
and If you don't take my word for
it," chirped the strawberry haired
twirler of the Giants, II can prove it
by Vic Willis, Ed Konetchy, Ed Reul-
bach and Doc White. They have all
taken whirl at it this fall and 1t is
wonderful developer.
That is no kid about this golf bust
ness" reiterated Ames. IT am going
to follow 1t every year, and I believe
it has done as much to get me in good
shape as anything I ever tried. The
long walks between IT'S and the slow,
long, swinging stroke is just the thing
for an arm. There is nothing about
golf that it violent, and still 1t is
enough exercise to keep a good arm or
a good pair of legs from going stale.
Il used to laugh at those fellows
with the funny clothes who came
around Warren and played golf, but,

pie around where we lived called 1t

Up until I was grown thought this
game Of golf a tame sort of foolish
ness for men who didn't know how to
do anything else. But since I have
come to know something about it l
think golf one Of the most fascinating
as well as healthful games in the
world. If I show up in good shape
next spring and have a good year of it,
you can just put it down as the result
of golf, or, to be exact, mountain bill

MACK SURPRISED BY SOCCER
Connie Throws interesting Sideilghf
on Football Games in England
Receipts Small.

Connie Mack, throws an interesting
sidelight on the foot ball games in
England. He started to take in one
of these contests, and it got so foggy
that he thought the game would be
called. 1t was played, however.
There we're 10000 persons present
at this particular game. However, the
receipts from these phenomenal at.
tendances do not begin to compare
with our base ball games. Where the
worlds series, with an attendance OF
10000, would bring in more than that
number Of dollars, the Englishmen
only get $500, or $4,000 of our coin.
Under the circumstances, when the
crowd reaches such huge proportions
as 5000 for game, they take in about
as much as one of our $4,000 crowds
would yield in base ball.

with the team during the whole sea-
son.
This evidently marks complete
change in the football policy at Yale,
which heretofore has been to invite
the outgoing captain to carry on the
work of coaching at Yale in the capa-
city of head coach. 1t is rumored
that either Tom Shevlin or Howard
Jones will fill the position of head
coach at Yale in 1911, and it is hailed
with much delight among the student
body because it is the presence of the
old heads on the field that seems to
be able to develop the material
1t is expected that Walter Camp will
also spend great deal more time
with the team than has been his GUS
tom in the last few years. The mate
rial for next year is going to be as
difficult to develop as the 1910 season,
and it is rumored that this will be the
most important feature in the chang
ing of the new system.

to Forsake Links.

Golf almost played havoc with JACK
Coombs' success as a pitcher last sea

president of the Athletics, Uncle Ben
Shibe, ably assisted by Manager Con-
ME Mack. The Athletics great pitch
er learned the ancient and honor
able" game while student at Colby
college, but for his first few years
with the Athletics did not indulge in
the game. While training at Mobile
during the spring of 1909 Coombs was
invited to try his hand, along with
several other players, at the Mobile
Country clubs links.
Coombs could not resist the tempta-
ton and spent all the time he could
get away from practice on the course,
driving the little white gutta percha

Jack coombs.

became quite an expert player after
he had played long enough to perfect
his work on the greens. His driving
was phenomenal; his keen eye, great
height and strength, and his batting
ability made his drives long and true.
Some Of the best professional golfers
who saw Coombs play predicted
bright future for him.
All the summer of 1909, whenever
he could spare the time, he played
golf Every Sunday he was on the
links of the various country clubs.
When the Athletics went south last
spring they spent ten days at Hot
Springs, Va, where the great game is
golf. Coombs soon had the entire
squad out playing, and it almost for
got that baseball was its mission in
the south.
The fad became even greater last
summer, and for the first few months
Of the season Coombs INDUCED it.
Then Comics pitching staff began to
break down, and Coombs and Morgan
alone remained to bear the brunt of
the work. The game Of golf demand
ed the expenditure of considerable
energy when a whole day was devoted
to the sport, as it meant five to seven
miles, and sometimes ten miles of
walking over hill and dale. 1t usually
required a day or two to get the legs
and body thoroughly rested after a
Sunday of this sport.
So Coombs was told to give up the
game, and he did.

she sighed Hugh Wentworth had al

She fairly haunted the dear old
garden. She knew just where her
father had loved to play when boy,
as a man. The sweet tangle with its
hallowed associations had charm OF
which she never tired.
One late twilight she wandered I'M
der the trees until the gold was quite
gone from the sky. She had flung
about her wrap of oriental silk, long
and voluminous. 1t had been her
mothers. She still had it on when
she entered the quaint old library
where her grandmother and Hugh sat
in the lampIight
One look, and the old lady started
violently to her feet. THAT cloak" "
How did you come by it?" she almost
shrieked.
Without waiting for a reply she
crossed to her desk, fumbled in a
secret drawer with trembling hands,
and held card photograph up to the
light Leslie gasped with dismay

selfsame wrap. Madame glanced at it,

her throat

mother-the best woman in the world
and the most beautiful"
Madame sat down heavily, pound
ing the arm ST her chair with her fist.
You dare say that-to me?" she
cried, her voice rising louder and
sharper with each word. Leave my
house-this Instant"
Leslie turned, with a wonderful ges-
ture that was a legacy from the stage.
On the threshold she paused an in
slant
Grandmother" she said, 81 want
you to forgive me for coming here
like this. My poor father had told me
so much about Overlook and the hap
by days of his boyhood I wanted to
know more of the dear old place. And
he always spoke tenderly, forgivingly
of you. He loved you in spite of your
harshness; or he never would have
named me Leslie, after you"
Madame said nothing; she turned
away her face. Hugh came close up
to the half-sobbing girl and took her
hands in his.
81 am your friend" he whispered.
"Now-and always. Don't forget
that" Unspeakable things were in
his eyes.
A new, sweet Joy thrilled Leslie's
heart as she climbed to her room.
Nevertheless a few scalding drops fell
among the belongings she gathered
hurriedly together. Still enveloped in
that picturesque old wrap she de-
scended the stairs. Hugh Wentworth
was waiting in the lower hall. With
out a word he led her back to the
carved mahogany chair, where sat
Madame Graham like a queen upon
her throne.
Slowly the old woman lifted her
bowed head. There was a wonderful
new softness in her wrinkled face.
''Nobody-ever called me grand
mother-before," she said brokenly.

GOVERNOR
CANCELS THE
CONTRACT

When the convict labor contract Of
Going & Co., manufactur-
ers, of Portland, was declared for
feited today by Governor West, there
came to an end all convict contract
labor in the state.
The contract was declared forfeit
ed because of the failure of the COM
pany to meet It's payments. The
company once before refused to meet
its payments, but was granted an ex-
tension. This is the second failure,
and West availed himself of the OPP
portunity to declare the contract
forfeited, and announced that no
further contracts of this kind will be
awarded under his administration.
There are about $50 conVicts en-
ployed by the company at the peni-
teniary manufacturing stoves. These
convicts will now be used for road
purposes and for crushing rock and
for construction of state buildings.
