the Forest" giant redwood In the
Calaveras big tree grove In Califor-
mia. 1t is supposed to contain l4O,-

claims, according to foresters, can
not always be verified.

Tales of the Diamond
Humorous and Otherwise.
By BILLY EVANS.

Forest Cady, who caught such good
ball for the Boston Red So2 I'm the
last worlds series, and JEFF Tesresu,
who did no well for the Giants In the
tox. were both members Of the East
ern league In 1911. Cady starred as
receiver with the Newark team, while
Tesreau pitched brilliantly for To-
ronto.
/ don't know how the two players
regarded each other when in the
minors, but don't believe shall ever
forget the conversation that passed
between the two, when either was at
the plate. 1t was interesting for a.
t:ns, then got quite sarcastic, and
finally waved warm, at which stage

called IL a. draw. II all happened in
the seventh game OF the series. The
Giants had made six runs on Wood
in the opening inning and sewed up
the game. The Red Sox figured with
Wood pitching the game was cfnch,
and naturally they were a bit peeved
at the way things were breaking. The

May Bar Brickley
AS A Professional
for Writing Yarns

BOSTON, Dec. 31.---T'he same rul-
ing which barred Paul wilmington,
the sensational Harvard athlete, from
participation in amateur contests may
make Charley Brickiey, the star foot
ball player and all-around athlete. in
eligible to compete IN amateur con-
teats
This question is worrying the Har-
ward athletic authorities
Brickley, who has been working his
way through college. has taken money
for number of jobs which were more
or less indirectly connected with his
football ability, and he has also acted
as correspondent for newspapers. IN
addition he has accepted a position
from firm OF tailors In New York
which some people declare WAS OBJ
tained merely through his record as
an athlete.
This, according TO the ruling OF the
Amateur Athletic union In Withing-
toms case. is professionalism. OF
course there has been q great deal
of this sort of thing that large
number Of people would like to pee
eliminated. but why the Indirect profit
from his football should make Brick
ley professional la puEzling the Har-
ward men. Meanwhile Brickley nolds
the unique position OF being IN dan
ger Of being barred from the grid
Iron and also Of being elected captain
for the coming year,
If the case comes before the Anna
teur Athletic union there would be an
interesting problem TO siive.
