THE COLLEGE ATHLETE.
Not Wholly the Product of the Coach
 es After All.


 One is forced to conclude that the college athlete is not altogether the handiwork of his coaches. Even for him, natural ability Is a desirable in gredient. It may be better to have no ability except the ability to follow their instructions thon to have everything else and lack that, but as conditions are, there is a multitude of players who have the requisite physique, and why may quite possibly be taught the rest. Why should our college not get some of these for it's team next year Well, our college, if it is up to snuff, sees no reason why 1t should fly in the face of Providence in this matter and it proceeds to do all thot may become an institution of learning in the laud- able endeavor to land It's share of these husky young fellows. The ways of achieving this end are as numerous achieving 1t. One famous coach at a famous eastern university dozen years ago was So fortunate as to have @ brother who was teaching in a mid de western college.e attended by sim ewy farmer boys. Is 1t any wonder that for a long period the teams of the university were built around stock 1ods who came out of the west better known instance Is that of the most famed preparatory school athlete of his day, who as the time drew near for going to college, kept more than one university in more than one state in hot water. In the end, he went to the university whose location would naturally have been thought sufficient to decide the point, and gove it four years of brilliant achievement. upon which it looks back with pride, and an occasional sigh. to this day.
 It is as difficult to draw the line be- tween proper and improper induce ments to a promising athlete to go to a certain university, as 1t is to define the difference between speculation and gambling.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
IRREGULAR MOVEMENTS. Reaction in Specials While Standard Issues Are Strong and Active.

New York, Jan. 5.-The end of the first three days of the new year which was recorded in the half holiday ses- sion yesterday of the New York stock market displayed some irregufarity in price movements Specials which had been strong during the earlier days of the week had their period of reaction, while some of the standard issues ex- hbited strength and fair activity. There was a continued heaviness in Western Maryland. American Beet Su- gar, Mexican and California Petroleum, which tested the strength of other 1s- sues responsible for the good under tone of the market as a whole and the gains made on the days trading, The action of Western Maryland was gen. erally accepted as indicating the pass ing of ths dividend this week. If the apparent underlying strength may be accepted as a basis for the further action Of the market, considerable en- couragement may be drawn from yes- teTday's transactions.
 In the meantime, however, the Min nesota, rate case hangs as a scarecroW ahead, and until a decision is handed down by the supreme court there will be an exercise of caution on the part of traders who favor new commitments on the long side. The report of foreign peace negotiations presented the usual daily change from favorable to unfa- ToraDie and vice versa, and the action Of the London stock market and the continental bourses reflected a tone of Encouragement of yesterdays situa- tion, while on Friday cheerfulness pre- vailed. In the home news the i'm proved bank e1eaTings afforded an op- poTtunity for a moderate degree of op- urnisrn.

Of course, I won't be SC bold as to say that I will be as great a boxer as my brother, but I just want to show them that l can do something on my own account. Stanley never wanted me to enter the ring, though he boxed with me great deal.
 T am, and have been, training hard here daily on Col. R. P. Dickerson's 8 ranch, the place where poor Stanley lost his life. He has been very good to me, and he has just erected s2,500 monument over Stanley's grave at Grand Rapids in the Polish ceme- tery. It was long time before he would consent to my following in the footsteps of my brother. and he is con- vinced that I will be credit to his memory, and so I'm coming to New York to try my best I feel just now as if I could go forty rounds like a race horse.''
