at least, Norman Brookes and A.
w. Dunlop, the Australian experts,
are going to try for the cup, and so
Zealander who defeated McLough-
lin for the English championship this
year. So our task In regard to inter-
national sports is to be some task,
as you can see. We may feel more
or less safe about our yachting hon.
ors, despite the terrible secrecy that
Upton is maintaining in building his
craft. At polo, we are not beaten
by any means, but for one reason or
another we will not be as strong as
last year. Our hold on the Davis cup
is in danger because out of the in
ternational tennis matches next sea-
son is sure to come a most formid-
able team of challengers. We have
something to worry about, even
though we possess all the honors.

It cannot be said with any degree
of truth that Dots Miller is slowing
up. His apprehension for speeding on
the Hudson boulevard is sufficient evil
dence of that. Another thing, Miller
wants it understood that he is not
angling with the outlaws" although
false rumor has 1t that Dots is
dangling from the Pittsburgh team.
However that may be, Miller is con-
Quoting profitable business in
Kearny, and he has not begun to
worry over next years diamond mat
terra so he says.
With Dave Fultz as the president
of the Federal League baseball would
be in furry surely. 1t would mean
an open war, although organized base
ball would not give the OUTLAWS" any
more attention than possible The
tendency at present is to ignore them
but they are getting so strong thai
they may require attention. If it /:
really so that Fultz has accepted tn,
presidency of the Federal League, i
will put the Players Fraternity in 6
peculiar position. AS president of tina
organization Fultz would be expected
to lead the players on the right road
but as president also of the Fedora
League he would naturally feel thai
there was only one road. and that tn,
froad to the Federal League. The stu
alton is peculiar, and 1t is doubtful /
Fultz will be able to hold down tn,
two jobs. Still, If he forsakes tn,
players, they will naturally be sor,
and will not follow him to the "out
law league On the other hand, 4
he keeps both positions, he may in
duce some of the men to join him, bu
organized fold will not want to b.
lgoverned by an "outlaw" president
The chances are that Fultz as presi
dent of the Federal League isn't SO
and a denial is almost sure to follow

Fred Kimball, teacher in mathe
matics, during visit to the Evening
Star office, had some nice things t,
say about McEwan, of the West Poin
football team:
Before McEwan entered Yves
Point" said Mr.. Kimball, ct coaches
him in mathematics. Well do l re
member the first time I saw him
fresh from Minnesota, In Washing
ton, d. C. Some new instructor
thought I. for he was strapping BIZ
fellow. He had been studying at tn
University of Minnesota, but he need
ed polishing In some of the element
in West Point refinement. He game
ground more steadily and surely tina
any other student I have observed 1
a decade of years. On the baseba
field he was home-run hitter, at tn
pool table graceful and accurat
! performer, at tennis a sure winner
