Some speed-msd bug in Indianapolis
has Inquired out that Bob Burman in his
fastest automobile could circle the bases
twice and reach first base on the third
circuit while Ty Cobb was going down
to first base from the plate. AT that the
paths would have. to be banked some.
Cincinnati sport writer's are beginning

no stopping it. Pitching weakness is the
alibi.

who isn't quite good enough to stick with

The bleachers pestered Bill Foxen with

the unmerciful beating that the Crackers
got but in the sixth inning he raked a
foul through the bleachers that had 'em
all ducking. 1t looked as though he did
it on purpose
Foxen looks as little like pitcher as

shoulder bound and there is nothing Of
ease or beauty to his pitching swing Yet
he is tremendously effective

WORLDS CHAMPION ATHLETE.


TN dealing with this subject l
must draw more from my oh
seryation than from personal
experience. for as yet I do not
judge that have come into the
afterlife of an athlete
| have heard athletics objected
to on the ground that it was
strain Nothing could be more
narrow. a strain? Surely it's
strain, and therein lies whatever
of good there may be in it. And
the word strain l am using as 1t
was used to me-that is. tension
or stress And those who claimed
it was strain thought that their
point, in objection to athletics,
had been won when l readily
agreed that athletics was d strain.
But rather than winning their
point, by their own statement they
lost it, and that hopelessly. For
the very worthw likeness of athlet-
les lies in the fact that it furnishes
a strain. a tension. a stress, pro-
baton, if you please. But the
strain of athletics is a drain" they
cry; 1T breaks men" I'll admit
that 1t breaks men
The Abuse of Athletics.
But that tells me nothing against
athletics.
Men drown in water. Does that

fuse a parched, thirsty child cool
glass of water? Men have been
burnt With fire. For that reason
would YOU refuse to hold your
numb hands to the welcome
warmth of some CHEEKY blaze?
The objection is not to athletics,
but to the abuse of athletics And
| object just IS vehemently-p
sibly more SOTO those abuses and
they are many. But in that num-
Der the mere fact of a strain con-
sequent upon athletic activity has
no place. Why the possession Of
free will entails a strain. Would
we, then, throw away free will?
When a child learns to walk It
is a tremendous strain on the I'M
tried. unhardened muscles. For
that reason would YOU keep the
sons of men crawling on hands and
knees wherever they go? Does the
birth cry mark an easy. a simple
occurrence? Why. everything that
counts follows strain
Sacrifice Is Well Rewarded.
But strain may break! surely
But that is not nearly a S impor-
tant a fact as that nothing but
strain can make.
But how does all this fit the top

To Withstand the strain of ath-
letics a man must take such and
such care Of himself He mus eat
such and such things. Certain 9TH
er things he dare not do nor eat.

more enticing.
Let me make this whole thing
very definite. The man who is not
by nature prohibited and treats
himself fairly. before, during and
after. will never be hurt by and
will be greatly helped by what
ever he may do in athletics.
Real Athlete Must Live Clean.
To be as good as any man may
be in athletics he must live clean
ly. He must pay the price. Does
that sound like hard statement?
1t isn't.
To be as good as anay man may
be. in anything. he must live clean
ly. He must pay the price. More
than that, TO HOLD ONES
SELF-RESPECT A MAN MUST
LIVE CLEANLY. MORE EVEN
THAN THAT. TO BE A CHRIS
