Fighting as In the days he was
believed invincible, Battling Nell
son today decorated his 1919 oal-
endar with win over Jack Red
mond of st. Paul, which was
gained in way worthy of his
palmiest days.
Up-to the ninth round the bat
tier was slow. In the seventh
and eighth he was hammered un=
mercifully and at the start of the
ninth looked to be all in. But he
was still the durable Dane, and,
delivering a couple of stiff
punches to Redmond's middle sec
ton he slowed up his opponent
until his head cleared, and from
then to the end of the twentieth
round 1t was all Nelson with Red
mond stalling and hanging on
while the battler fought like q
demon.

When the pair weighed in at 10

McGRAW-The Giants were
the team in 1911. We proved It
after one of the hottest fights on
record and we will repeat it for
good measure in 1912.
CHANCE-The Giants were
mighty lucky. Our pitching will
be better in 1912 and we will
beat out the Giants. With good
pitching we would have won
easily.
CLARKE-The injury to Hans
Wagner beat us out of the pen
napt. With anything like an
even break next season we will
win another pennant beyond
doubt.
ODAY-There is a lot in the
Reds that will come out with the
right kind of handling. I be-
lieve the team has a first rate
chance to land first.
BRESNAHAN-The Cardinals
proved to be the National league
surprise last year and they will
be a sensation in 1912. The win
ner must beat us, believe me.
DAHLEN-Brooklyn has just
about reached the point in its de-
velopment where it will demon
strate its real ability. Support
ers will be content.

tives in the worlds series next
year. We will play the champion

the program of any forward movement of mankind, in our day; here they are:
 The elimination of the swamp, that is the abolition of the things that ought not to be, which imperil the things that must not be; the harness ing of the Chagres, that is the mastery of the material in the service of the soul; the building of the locks, that is opening the gates for a greater tomorrow; the coronation or service; the extension of democracy and the federation of nations, world friendship and world peace.
 The canal and the exposition bear a tremendous relation to this program.
