RACING MAGNATES ANXIOUS.
Commission to Render Decision in
Pari-Mutuel Case After January /.

BALTIMORE, Md, December 3O-Rac-

racing commission as to whether pari-
mutuel machines will be installed next
spring on the small ovals. 1t is said the
commission will arrive at a decision this
week.
Should the body. which is composed OF
Redmond C. Stewart, Frederick Won

must be used IN future on all the courses
In the county racing officials connected
with thes small tracks declare that they
will be put out Of business because they
will not be able to meet expenses under
the new plan. The commission granted
q hearing to these officials a few weeks
ago, and announced that they would hold
the matter under consideration until after
the first of the year.
There are four half-mile tracks In the
county. During the summer and fall
these tracks. have nearly fifty days OF
sport. They are now looked Apon as pay

interested, they will cbe cut up into build

1t was considered almost foregone con-
clusion that Harvard would win the
trophy, because the Crimson this year
had very good team. The Tigers fur
nished surprise first by winning in sin
giles. which brought them up on even
terms with the Quakers and the Crimson
PrincetOn's subsequent victory in the
doubles was very much of surprise, but
thoroughly earned.
iale's victory in soccer was especially
credita Bile in view Of the Ellis being the
last college to take up this sport When
it was first tried to introduce soccer into
the college world the Ellis rather scorned
it, but they eventually took it up, and
for all it is worth. Heretofore the cham
pionship had usually alternated between
Pennsylvania and Haverford.
Yale was likewise supreme in gymnas-
tics and golf In both Of these sports
Yale has always been unusually strong,
and particularly in golf had more vic
tories to its credit than any other col
lego.
Pennsylvania returned to first place in
swimming, ard the Quakers may be said
to have quite as much a monopoly on this
sport as Columbia has in basket ball or
Yale in golf. Pennsylvania, also by vir-
tue of having so many English students,
was once more supreme In cricket. AS a
been beaten in cricket except by Haver-
ford. The Intercollegiate Cricket Asso-
citation has not met with much success
in getting the other colleges to take up
this game. Harvard dropped out several
years ago, and Cornell. which took the
Crimson's place, has played the game
only in an intermittent fashion.
Probably the most pronounced feature
of the college year was the era Of good
craftsmanship that prevailed almost
everywhere. intercollegiate quarreling
over eligibility codes and similar ques-
tions that once had the college world by
the ears have almost entirely disappear
ieges are still kept apart. but it is no
longer the fashion for college men to at
tack the integrity of their rivals. With
out a doubt the time is not far distant
when all colleges will conduct their
athletics on the 'honor" system, and
when good fellowship will be nearly uni
versal.

Things Easy.

south at least seven weeks and already
the groundkeeper of the club has gone to
Marlin Springs, Tex. to get the playing
field into shape. According to Mathew
son, McGraw has planned to keep every
one on the move down in Texas, and that
he hopes to duplicate his success OF last
spring Of taking his team out in front
early and keeping 1t there.
Manager Mack has not announced how
he intends to make his players put in
their time while in the south. This, it
is possible, the men will have to find out
after they reach San Antonio. 1t has
been the policy OF the Athletics leader
for several years to let the men do as
little or as much work as they desired.
Morning practice has been very light. and
the exercise In the afternoon has been Of
not overly vigorous character.
In the Athletics camp in the spring
base ball is almost the only form Of exer-
else INDUCED in by the players. They
warm up and they play a game. Then
they knock of work for the day. II they
want to get other recreation it is usually
in bowling alleys or by playing pool or
billiards. In the Giants camp 1t is diff
ferent. McGraw makes his players wear
out their shoes running around the ball
park. He has a tennis court for them.
and he is now having q hand ball court
constructed at Marlin Springs. In addi-
ton, McGraw has what he calls Slid
ing pit" He has several yards Of soil
players are compelled to rush full tilt and
slide feet first into a bag in the pit.
No wonder McGraw's players dread the
invitation to take the southern trip.

of the Athletics when they receive in
structions from their manager a to when
they shall report for training.

PHILADELPHIA, December 3O-'How
to train for the championship base ball
season is a topic which would be dis
cussed from directly opposite standpoints
, by Connie Mack and John j. McGraw,
managers who have been very successful
in recent years. in landing remnants.
. McGraw believes in training by working
his players as though they were made Of
iron. Mack's idea is to use kid-glove
methods while in the south. McGraw's
players dread training trip as much as
they do visit to the dentists. Maek's
ball tossers look upon a journey to the
south as If it were joy ride.
The leader of the Giants believes that
it is good policy to have his players right
ON their toes when the championship sea-
son starts. He desires to get the jump
on the other teams. Mack believes that
the right plan is to work his men into
condition by slow degrees. He figures
that II the team starts slow IT Will grad
uaIly get up momentum, and that then
there is less danger of its going stale.
McGraw wants his men to be on top In
the race from the opening week OF the
championship season. Mack likes 10 get
his combination in front along about the
Fourth of July and then hit up the speed.
Mack's theories worked out like
charm In 1910 and 1911. Last year he tried
methods little different. He brought his
regulars. barring the veteran pitchers
and Catcher Ira Thomas, home first.
Bender, Plank. Coombs and Morgan were
left in the south with the second squad,
with the idea of having them on edge
when the American League race started.
1t looked as il the scheme was correct
when Coombs and Morgan held the
Washington team down to a total of
three hits in the first two games of the
season at Shibe Park. Shortly afterward
Coornbs was injured and Morgan became
a backslider and the real value of the
plan of keeping the star pitchers in the
south a couple of weeks longer than usual
could not be sized up accurately.
