ling and Musser may work in the
Southern League next season. coming
back 10 the Climbers for trials in the
fall, providing their work in the bushes
seems to warrant.

the Los Angeles club of the Pacific
Coast League. He did fair work there,

International Matches
Looked for by Golfers

NEW YORK. Jan. LIN looking
ahead into the coming season for
golfers. Robert C. Watson, secretary Of
the United States Golf Association,
says that international matches should
be numerous next season, American
golfers planning to go across the pond
TO try their skin.
Speaking of the golf outlook. watson
says:
There is a noticeable tendency on the
part of many of the clubs, especially
the more prominent ones. to spare
neither pains nor expense in bringing
their courses up TO the best possible
state of development. On many we'll
known courses the system Is to place
a premium more than ever on straight
play. although In some instances the
bunkers are so situated that IL a per-
son doesn't care to go aIter the hard
est carries he may avoid trouble by
placing his drives. The International
phase for next year looks unusually
bright, and / wouldn't be surprised to
see number of our leading amateurs
and professionals competing with the
best on the other side during the late
spring and early summer"

Is often 'bloomer.' Baseball is the
most uncertain game I'm the world. In
jurIes may kill the best-lald plans.
THE only time I thought my Giants
would surely cop the flag was in 1876,
the year after they defeated the Ath-
letics for the worlds championship.
Then, the Cubs came marching along

Of James S. o'Neill. boxing commits

year 1913, TO my mind, Is destined to
be a great one for boxing in every

we'll as Europe and Australia is just
becoming educated TO the idea OF gov
erning the sport by means of boxing

win flourish in 1913 as never before. He
says:
Il believe that 1913 win be the great
est year in American track and field
sports for many reasons First and
foremost is the fact that athletic en-
thusiasm and competition Is steadily in
creasing throughout the nation II fol-
lows logically then that each succeed-
ing year win be more impressive In per-
formances that preceding seasons.
There are other factors. however. that
make for greater growth In this de-

Walter Camp Predicts
Some Great Football

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. Walter
Camp. footballs great tactician, says
that the game next fall should be the
best in the history Of the college sport.
Experts and layman agree that the
present football rules, tried out during
the season of 1872" says he, promise
for the year 1913 season of unparal-
leled interest and possibilities. Behind
these rules stand an array of football
talent in the colleges and schools
throughout the country unequaled In its
promise. Supremacy can no longer be
held on form-it must now be demon
strated on the gridlron by the far
broader craps of the possibilities of the
play. A safe defensive game may now
offer the chance OF escape without being
coupled with an attack well rounded
out and adaptable TO emergencies"

CROP REPORT
BELOW AVERAGE

There will be a small general
crop this harvest, according to the
department of agriculture. The
bureau of statistics has issued a
report showing a general average
of ten per cent lower than the ten
year average.
The figures were included in a
new publication, the first issue of
which appears today and which is
meant to give the farmers market
news. Weather conditions have
been responsible for the crop de-
clines, the departn holds, due
to extreme heat and lack of rainfall
over large sections of the west. It
predicts an off year fer apples
and Il short crop of potatoes.
