self-confidence; yet it will be equally
necessary to hold it back from over
confidence and extravaganza. There
will inevitably be required of you a
constant and supremely difficult bal
ancing of restraint and energy, of
sympathy and steadfastness, of cour-
age and caution. For the full test of
you and your party will be nothing
less than this: that through you de-
mocracy shall win victories and yet
shall not abuse them.
But if, Mr.. President, we are thus
candidly mindful of all that confronts
you, we are also happily mindful of
much, of very much, to hearten and
help you. Happily for you, as for us
all, you are the choice of no one Sec
ton, but of the whole country. AS
your elevation excludes not one Sec
ton from power, you will escape a
kind of bitterness that has borne hard
on many of your predecessors; and
yet you will not lack the fine inspira-
ton to be drawn from the peculiar
pride in you of particular section, a
section strong in loyalties. Southern
born, 1t is your privilege to restore the
South to a full share in the country's
affairs, to help her prove her fitness
for it, and to revive, let us hope for
ever, the great tradition of her spa
cious patriotism in the early days of
the Republic.
| Less than this, perhaps, but far from
little, will be the inspiration of your
academic memories. At every crisis
there will be the inspiring conscious
ness that to an extraordinary degree
you represent in American public life
the training and ideals of American
colleges. There will be something
still more poignant-the passionate,
intimate appeal of your own ancient
university, calling upon you, as with
bells and songs, to win for her still
greater honors. If need be, alma
mater may serve you better still. If
the worst comes to the worst, if the
path of duty becomes the way of sac
rifice, if it so happens that you must
lay down even popularity itself on
the altar of patriotism, you can still
see the tall tower with which she
commentaries that other President
of whom, in the hour of his seeming
failure, you yourself wrote:
"The men who assess his fame in
the future will be no partisans, but
men who love oandor, courage, hon
esty, strength, mistaken capacity, and
high purpose such as his"
Yes, Mr.. President, the task is
great the dangers manifold, and mani
fold the temptations. But all your
youth will now, surely, rise up and re-
inforce your manhood. The great
thing has happened-has happened to
you, of all men. Surely you will not
quail before it. Surely you will not
lack in the face of opportunity and Of
danger the supreme human quality;
you will not lack courage-the kind Of
courage that is one with sincerity. As
you go to meet Fate's call, the times
demand, your country's summons,
your mood will not be one Of pride or
self-sufHciency; yet surely it will be
as if, in your own heart, drum beat,
or trumpet sounded.

T f If the Brown Abel bout dem
onstrated anything il proved
that real fight referees are not
found in any days walk. While
Harry Matthews is an amiable
young man and his decision pleased
AbIe's supporters hugely. it was ev-
ident, especially in the first five
rounds, that Matthews needs most
careful schooling in the science of
boxing as laid down by the late
Marquis of bloomsbury.
Time and time again in the sec
ond round when the two light
weights closed, fighting like wild
cats and treating the spectators to
the most brilliant kind Of might
ing, Matthews, needing the call of
lot of misinformed ringsde en-
thusiasts. made them get away and
wallop at long range.
Harry's friends contended after
the mill that Brown was taking real
delight in the infghting and using
the occasions as an opportunity to
use his head freely on various parts
of Abel's body and face. Matthews
claimed in defense of his breaking
tactics that Brown paid no atten-
ton to his warnings and continued
to butt with will every time the

Frank Chance Plans
New Infield for His
Highlander Outfit

r OS ANGELES. CAL, Jan. %
Manager Frank Leroy Chance,
Frank Farrells chief hope in the
reorganization of the New York High
landers. is busying himself just now
with smudge firepots and Jack Frost on
his ranch near Glendora. When seen
today he seemed more disposed to talk
of the orange crop than of baseball
and the 1913 prospects of the High
landers.
Il have to laugh when | hear it said
that I'll bring the Highlanders through
the season to the head of the percentage
column from the position they held last
year." said Chance. "Pennant prospects
in 1914 or 1915 would not be so bad,
but the team is all run down, and it will
require al least one season to bring it
up into top form
Il don't yet know just what changes
will be made in the New York team.
Hal Chase is the only one of the team
whom | have seen play, and that was
years ago, right here in California
Farrell says Chase wants to play at
second base this season. and if he
makes good at that station I will prob
ably play first. The fact that Hal is a
left handler will handicap him some
what, but he is SO fast that | think
he will manage all right
Il expect to go East about February
> and will meet President Farrell on
February II, to take over deals for the
coming season. He will need a short
stop and a third baseman, and if we
have to keep Chase on first, we will
need new man at second.
The outfield appears to be good
Lelivelt batted .34S last year. Cree had
a percentage of 1892. Wolter hit .S44.
With at least four men batting over the
300 mark, we won't have to look for
hitters but can get the best there is in
fielding.
That is about all the changes I'll
make in the team. at least until the
season is we'll advanced. The New
York club has good bunch of players,
l understand, and if there is any base
ball there, can get it out of them"

SEWANEE WILL SECURE
JULIAN TO HELP COPE

SEWANEE. TENN. Jan. 25.-Frank
Julian, the former Sewanee football
star, will in all probability act as as
sistant coach of the Tigers for the en-
suing year. Julian has just completed
short visit to the mountain and plans
for his return next fall to help Coach
Cope with the football team were dis
cuSsed.
Julian played center on the cham
pionship team of 90. and the same po-
sition in 10, being All-Southern choice
for that position both years. He took
active part in the activities of the uni
Versity, and was head proctor in 10
and II. Leaving the university in 1911,
he went to the West Texas Military
academy as chaplain ard athletic
coach, where he has turned out some
exceptionally fast teams.

body, for the X. o, is essentially
an intghter of the SIAM bang va
rtety who instinctively hunts for
his opponents stomach and heart.
Be it remembered also that Abel
is nothing if not clever in the best
sense of the term, and to reach his
jaw (Which is said to be his weak
est point) his rival must be a
superlative boxer with a lightning
like punch. Abel refuses to swap
punches with anybody and exhibits
rare judgment in doing so.
For the benefit of those not
aware of the fact, Abel entered the
ring overweight The c hattanoo-
ga boy agreed to make 135 in the
afternoon, and he didn't get closer
than 1856 pounds and eight ounces.
Brown weighed l29 and there was
considerable argument about the
weight before the fighters finally
climbed into the ring Abel's man
ager refused fatty to make Jake
take off the eight ounces and for
a period Brown baked, as he
should have done, when he was
conceding some five or six pounds.

Sillfted his attack and bored in,
swinging both hands for the body.
But Abel had solved how TO get
away from that deadly left. Every
time Brown would turn loose his
southpaW mitt. Jake would beat
him to the punch with his right.
Abel Failed to Counter.
Abel made Brown miss many of
his leads, but he failed to counter
on the leads when he had the New
Yorker wide open. And every time
the boys got into close quarters

session, and Jake. by bringing all
his cleverness into play, managed
to keep from being foored.
Again in the tenth. Brown had
his man tired and weak. And it
was that deadly left hand that
caused all the woe to the little

MattY Is Some Referee, But His Foot Slipped
Fighting Sidelghts, Picked Up at the Ringside

the fifth round the referee changed
his angle of vision on the one-arm
free method and let them fight
pretty much as they would.
Browns head didn't seem to give
Abel much trouble from then on.
And to the eye of the average spec
tator, it didn't give much trouble
at any stage of the bout.
Mike Saul, Atlantas habitual
referee, who has given eminent
satisfaction at numerous bouts,
said after the fight that he would
have called the bout a draw, and
it is safe to say that Mike saw
everything there was to see in the
bout
Dan Morgan. manager of Brown,
objected to Saul on the ground that
he was related Gacially, at leasD
to Abel and Mike was disqualified.
The crowd wanted the local fighter
to otficiate in the main bout and
cheered him as he left the ring
Mike said if there was any edge.
Brown had it.
There are those who say that the
tow -headed New Yorker made the
mistake of his young and siren

to land body punches Abel is noted

self into close quarters, hung on

Brown Made Great Finish.
1t was Browns fighting in this
spasm that, at the very worst,
should have earned him a draw,
according to my way of thinking.
And if | had been forced to give a
decision. this one session alone
would have caused me to give it to
the New Yorker by the barest of
shades.
There was no knock downs dur
ing the ten rounds, and every ses-
sion was practically the same.
Abel did all his fighting at the
head Brown all his at the body.
Local fans do not seem to appre-
ciate that body blows count every
bit as much as wallops to the face.
They overlooked the fact that
Brown was always jamming in both
hands in the clinches.
1t was a great fight and at a
great place. There is no building
in the country arranged better than
the Auditorium Armory for boxing
contests.

1t seems that when Vanderbilt went up
