CAN Ed WALSH
COME BACK IS
BURNING QUERY
Realizing Lack Of Sufficient
Training This Year, Pitcher
Arranges for Extra Work.
BY James Garrison.

y HICAGO, Nov. Whether OF
not Big Ed Walsh, the price Of
the South Side for these many
seasons, viii oe able to come back"
next spring is a subject that is fur
nishtnG considerable fuel for those
who gather around the hot stove in
the Headquarters Of the Winter
League these dreaTy November after
Moons.
There are many who argue that Ed
Walsh next season will be as good as
or better than he ever was Then, Of
course, we have heard many argu-
ments 10 the effect that the Big
Moose. a man of whom the entire
baseball world should feel proud. is
through. Regardless of all the chat
ter concerning Walsh. there is bur
one individual Who is In d position to
say whether or not Ed Walsh will be
OF any service to the White Sox next
season. That individual is none other
than Walsh himself Walsh believes
that he Will cut the same capers in the
American League during the 1914
season that he cut for many years be-
fore. Bat Walsh realizes that he's
got to do a lot Of work conditioning
himself and in that respect he made
a farewell request Of Manager Gala
han before he departed for his home
in Connecticut
L DIS request was simple. and it will
- be complied with to the letter
Immediately following the city series
Walsh. in the presence of the writer,
informed Callahan that ne wanted to
go to the Soy training camp in Cali
fornia a least two weeks In advance
Of the other SOx PLAYERS next sprins.

right in and DO the real hard work
the kind of which I am capable Of
doing Walsh told Callahan II diI
not take Callahan long to instruct
Secretary Harry Gardiner to furnish
Walsh with transported ton to the
coast the moment he makes a request
for same next spring.

~ NE of the very earliest things q
football player should learn
properly 10 do is to hustle
down the field under punts and tackle
the man catching the ball,
This is very important depart
Went of the gridiron game and one
That takes a great deal of time and
practice in order to attain proficiency.
The ends are the ones who are de-
pended upon most for getting down
field and taCkling the receiver. They
should be fast men and good, sure
taCklers. AS soon as the signal for 4
punt is given the endmen should leave
the rest of the rush line and go well
out toward the boundary lines. The
idea is TO go down the sides of the
field and thus outtiank the catcher.
The ends start down the instant
the ball is snapped and they should
run at top speed nearly all the way,
They should not look back TO see
where the ball is going, except very
heetinR glance over the shoulder
when the attitudes and postures of
the man or men receiving the catch
are such as to render 4 difficult to
tell just where the ball is going to
land. Ordinarily "a close study of the
receivers while going down Will indi
cate, after "a little practice just what
part of the field the punt is going to
~and who Is going to try to catch II.
HAVING done your fast Sprinting
IL Mt the start, you will probably
get reasonably close 10 the receiver
before the ball comes down. This
will enable you to slack up somewhat
when YOU get within eight or ten feet
of him, and set yourself on good bal
auce. so as either to be able TO tackle
him the instant the ball strikes his
arms. or to respond to his lodging in
case you are still a little too far away
from him.
Now. the rest Of the rush Hne-eN-
Cept under certain special kick forma-
tions-hloCks steadily in the line SO
the opponents can not get through to
block the kick. until they hear the
SOUND Of the kick, when they in
stRntly drop their opponents and
scurry on down the field after their
ends as fast as they can SO. But
whereas the ends went down on the
outer edges Of the field these other
men so down more nearly straight.
The ends continue to STAY ON THE
OUTSIDE Of the receiver, and turn In
toward him only when they are sure
that they have outranked him.
II an end runs right straight at the
receiver IL Is generally an easy matter
for the latter TO dodge TO the outside
OF the taCkler and bring the ball all
the way back up the field along the
side line. What the ends must do Is
TO keep the receiver turned in to the
middle OF the field. for, coming up the
middle rapidly, are the other FIVE
rush linemen to help out on mailing
the runner.

He Deserved the Dinner He Got With
 So Much Cunning.
 Here is an, amusing tale of an ele. plants artfulness told by Mrs. A. M. Handley in "Roughing It In Southern India:"
 "One very bright moonlight evening while camping on the Brahmagiris we were sitting out in the cool air after dinner when one of the elephants somehow contrived to unhobble him. self and walked away from his own quarters into ours. We saw him go up to sleeping native. snuff at his pillow and then ever so gently draw 1t away with his trunk. At the same time he edged his own foot under the mans head and shoulders that no jerk might be felt.
 "The pillow was bag of rice. put there for safety against pilferers. Al. though tied up in a knot the bag w's deftly opened and its contents devour ed to the very last grain, the thief look. ing watchfully round him the while.
 "We were not likely to disappoint him of his cleverly won feast. as he seemed to know. for, just letting his tiny eyes rest on us unconcernedly for second or two, he fell to considering his next move
 "He drew q stone toward him with the ever handy trunk and got 1t under the empty sack. Then he worked bott together under the mans head. Final ly be stealthily withdrew his own foot and. having waited no longer than was necessary to make sure he had left al safe he moved off,"

ON THE BRINK OF NIAGARA.

Three Hours of Peril, but He Still
 cIutched His Knife.
 On the afternoon of June 1. 1872, an old painter named William McCul- tough while painting the bridge above Niagara fails between the first and second Sister islands fell into the rap ids. Instantly he was swept furiously toward the cataract, but whirled into lesser waves, so that he struck against and seized rock not far above the brink.
 Hundreds quickly gathered on the shore and watched. all eager to help. but ignorant what to do. Among them was Thomas Conroy. who secured q coil of rope. fastened one end to tree on shore and with the other end in his hand waded out as far as he could and occasionally swan, the water being from eighteen inches to six feet deep.
 He aimed far up stream to allow for the power of the current and at last with great difficulty reached the unfor- tunate painter and bound him to him. self with the rope. They were swept of their feet several times on the way back to shore. but the rope had been firmly fastened. and they finally landed safely.
 When they reached shore 1t was found that Mccullough still clutched his putty knife firmly in his hand, hay ing held it during the three hours he had been on the brink of the falls.
