URGE TRAINERS FOR PLAYERS
Little or No Attention Paid to Phys
ieaI Condition After Preliminary
Season 10 Finished.

A good many professional athletes
do things which amateurs never would
think of doing. This is particularly
true Of baseball players.
In order that the point may be un.
derstood. one must appreciate the
hardships under which amateurs get
ready for contests. They quit smok-
ing and their diet is regulated with
as much science back of 1t as physi-
clan gives to a patient. The amateur
mortif1es his flesh and punishes his
stomach with the one single idea of
making himself proficient in the con-
tests in which he has undertaken TO
engage.
The professional baseball player.
on the contrary, pays little or no
attention to training after the prelim-
mary season is finished. The average
baseball player. like every other hu-
man being who exercises a good
DEAL gets pretty hungry and permits
himself to over eat, says the Milwau-
kee Sentinel. After dinner. while
loafing around the hotel he over
smokes and few of them take very
good care of themselves generally.
They do not over drink as rule,
but they have other foolish ways Of
not taking care of themselves. The
average baseball player is in such a
hurry to get to the bus after the game
that he does not properly clothe him.
self and good many of them find
themselves stiffened up after hot
finish because they ride to the hotel
without properly cooling of.
What every baseball team ought to
have Is a professional trainer who
has absolute power and control over
the physical welfare of the men. He
should be heartless dictator, whose
orders are to be obeyed. and the
management should back him up in
everything he does. In this way base
ball players could be kept in condi-
tion and 1t Is about the only way that
good condition can be assured.

WILL HONOR HoosiER POET.
Six-Day Celebration Of James Whit
comb RIIeY'a Birthday.

Indianapolis, Ind-During the Sec
ond week of October. James Whitcomb
Riley, the beloved Hoosier poet, Will
be the center of the greatest ovation
ever rendered an American writer, Octo-
Der Z. is the poets birthday. but owing
to the fact that the celebration In his
honor will be OF such proportions that
1t will be impossible to conflne 1t to
one day, 1t has been decided to extend
1t over period of six days, beginning
Monday. October Z. and ending Satur-
day. October IL. Indianapolis. Mr..
Riley's home town, has taken the lead
In this event. but the movement has
spread like wildfire and 1t is doubtful
whether there is city or town in the
United States which will not have one
or more events scheduled In honor OF
the poet who through the medium OF
his vcrCes has struck a responsive
chord in every breast and has sue
cecded In bringing poetry home to tho
peopls.
Riley programs have long been pop
ular with literary clubs and during
Riley week these programs will take
on an added interest. Mr.. Riley Is
widely known for his love OF children.
Like his great predecessor, Longfel-
low, he has been able to fathom the
beauties of the child nature better
than most men, and many OF his best
poems have been written for. or about,
children. For this reason Riley
Week" will be generally observed in
schools with special exercises.
Mr. Riley is now enjoying excellent
health. The paralysis which manifest
ed itself in his right arm little more
than year ago is rapidly disappear
Ing and he says he feels as well as
ever he did In his life. Every day he
takes long ride about Indianapolis
and the surrounding country in his
big touring car and he is known as an
enthusiastic motorist. He is always
happy and is usually surrounded by n
group of close friends.
There Is no more popular man in In
dianapolis than James Whitcomb RI
ley, and this popularity does not come
merely from the fact that he is
world figure. He was popular long be-
fore he was famous and when in his
presence one forgets the fact that he
is the greatest American poet He Is
Just man, simple, unassuming, llk-
able. His fellow townsmen have al
ways taken pride in doing him honor,
and that pride will be greater than
ever during the celebration OF Riley

WIfe's Loyalty.

Harry Aubrey. who recently was
forced to give up his place with the
Worcester team of the New England
league because Of tumor OF the blad-
der, owes his life to the loyalty and
courage Of his wife. He entered Johns
Hopkins hospital at Baltimore for an
operation, which surgeons said was
necessary to save him, but he was too
weak to submit to the knife. Trans
fusion Of blood, 1t was believed, would
give him the strength needed. His
wife came to the rescue and blood
from her body was used to fill his
veins. Even then It was decided not
to use knife. but the tumor was de-
stroyed by the insertion in 1t Of a
white hot electric wire. 1t Is believed
Aubrey will recover. His wife suffer
