vI.-THE ATHLETES MENU.

Until within the past few years, the
athletes course OF training and especially
that course followed by football trainers,
ran about as follows:
First, the man went through a daily
series of good hard workouts, which
stimulated the appetite enormously.
Next, after coming in from his squad
work. he sat down, las hungry as a
hunter to a series of gluttonous, Gar
gantuah meals, during which he stuffed
like a broiler for market.
Third, he went STALE
Fourth, he took a lay-off of several
days and was sweated. bathed. massaged
and physicked till he was almost as weak
as a cat
Fifth. he went back on the squad and
repeated the whole experience from be-
ginning to end.
Now at last, however, trainers are be-
ginning to wake up to the fact that diet
Is fully as important for the development
of a good team of athletes as exercise
and practice are. They have found out
that athletes do not need to go stale;
that they wouldn't go stale IL they fed
right. This statement is clearly proven
by looking up the record of the Indian
team of Carlisle this season, which played
one of the longest football schedules that
any football team has ever played and
at the end of the season. not player
was stale nor in any wise the worse for
wear. except a few minor bruises here
and there. In fact most of the men were
not wearers of the blue and black spots
They know now that the meals which
these men had been eating were too
hearty; that the exercise gave the men
a sense of false hunger. a hunger of the
stomach rather than of the. system. and

NEW RINK FOR TIGERS
Special % The Washington Herald.

Boston, Mass. Jan. 25.-It is just about
as hard to get Hobey Baker. the Prince
ton hockey captain. to talk about him
self and hockey as it is to take the
puck away from him in a match.
Baker is not given to many words.
but the views he expresses carry con-
siderable weight For instance, when
he was asked il he preferred football
to hockey. the Tiger replied: Most
emphatically no. Football. as much
as ] like it. does not compare with
hockey for a minute. In hockey the
play is steady and exciting. 1t de-
pends sometimes on your own indi-
operation OF your teammates. Hockey
is a game that you derive lots Of fun
out Of in practise.
Football Practice Is Hard.
Football. on the other hand is
sport In which one gets mighty little
enjoyment from in practice. 1t is
guelIing drill. while in hockey one acts
and feels as though he were in
game"
Asked about the hockey practice at
Princeton. he said:
We have good hockey players in
many laureIs in the past two years
that the students rather expect us 10
go through with a steady run of
championships. As a matter of fact.
we have had but little practice at
Princeton. For the match tonight with
Harvard We had thirty minutes practise
at the ST. Nicholas rink In New York
last Thursday. which. outside of our
half-hour practice here. represents our
preparation for the Harvard game.
Asked whether he had improved as
hockey player since he left st. Paurs
School in Concord. y. H.. Baker was
reluctant to answer. After long per-
suasion, Baker replied:
81 do not think my hockey playing OF
to-day is as good as that displayed when
was a student at ST. Paurs School.
Up there We were on the ice every day.
Down in Princeton. IL We get on the ice
once a week we consider ourselves very
fortunate.
when a man comes from a famous
hockey school like St Paul $. he is
expected to show wonderful work. n
man may not reach perfection. but he
could show development provided he
had ice to play on. At Princeton We do
not get that, and / think II is a re-
markable thing for the work our teams
have done in the past few years. in
view of this handicap.
There has been talk about building
a rink in Princeton. l doubt IL this will
come about for some time, but there
is a feeling there that rink should
be established. Hockey is the big at
traction for the students at st. Paufs
School, and there is no reason why
this policy could not be carried out with
success at Princeton"

THE BASEBALL SITUATION
IN LITTLE OLD new YORK
McGraw Says He Is Glad Frank Chance Will Manage the
Yankees-Means More Coin for the
Giants

Graw concluded. we did not do nearly so
well as we should. We would come home
after a trip Of triumph expecting record
crowds. only TO find that the public had
forgotten US in our absence. The class of
ball furnished by the opposition was so
mediocre that the fans drifted away TO
some other sort of amusement-golf.
tennis, bathing. and the like. I wish
Chance every success. The better he does
the better il will be for me-
Hunch followers are getting aboard
the Highlanders as a good thing for
the current wear. The advent of Chance
marks a new epoch in local American
League circles. Under his management
the team will train in Bermuda. This
will be the first time the club has over
looked Georgia. which has come to be
to the very best accounts. should prove
welcome change from Dixieland. The
climate is superb and unvarying Base
ball practice may be supplemented by
bathing. bicycling. and golf. But best
of all, the team will be properly fed
Frank Farrell has chartered a hotel,
which will be occupied exclusively by
his athletes. Special cooks, chefs, wait
ers and domestic help will be shipped
down from New York to look after
Chances athletes. For practice games the
Kilties will have Jersey City, the team
that trained at the island a year ago and
which came back in perfect shape.
Chance will have the greatest incen-
tive of his life to build up a cham
pionship array ON the ghost OF Farrell 8
rank tailenders So much is expected of
him that his lot may be bit hard at
first 1t must be born in mind that the
Peerless Leader is coming to a strange
company. 1t will take him some time
to get his bearings. But no one doubts
his ability and every one is as confident
as Chance himself that eventually the
Highlanders will be as much a factor
as the long established and deserving
Giants.
To hasten the day will be the aim of
''Husk'' Chance. For when the time
comes that New York can boast two
really great teams just SO much quicker
will open an avenue for really great
under such circumstances why the local
rivals should not meet each spring in
an exhibition series for the champion
ship of New York. Such games would
prove far more entertaining and benefl-
cial than transforming through the
brush"
Charles H. Eboets. too, is likely to
benefit by the coming of Chance. Charlie
has a new ball park, which cost him a
whole lot of money. He will have to
improve his clubs standing at once un-
less he wishes white elephant on his
hands On paper his team Is Of first
division possibilities. But year after
year it has always proven bitter dis
appointment. The trobule Is much the
same as that which hampered Frank Far
rell-too much experimenting with man
agertal talent. Let Chance give Farrell
a winner and Ebbets is likely to whip
into line ready to pay the price and
the salary to real leader.

II is generally conceded by the duck

HUGHEY JENNINGS TO
PLAY IN WASHINGTON
Tigers Leader Opens Next Week at
Chase's in Vaudeville
Sketrh

The famous "Eyah" battlecry of Hughie
Jennings. the manager of the Detroit
Tigers, will be heard for the first time
on a theater stage in this city next
week. when he appears at Chase's.
He is associated with Ben Smith, the
we'll known blackface comedian. and they
are playing a laugh-winning skit called
The New Mascot" The plot concerns
Smiths effort, in an appropriate and
amusing ''corkonian' makeup, to get
Jennings to give him the job of official
mascot for the Tigera This gives
Jennings a chance to get into his fighting
togs and then he proceeds to give his
audience an inside view of the workings
of the great American game. He rips
off his stirring "Eyah," follows it with
the piercing Jennings whistle and re-
inforces with tips as to his grass-pulling
signals. There is a rhyming review of
the old days of such heroes as McGraw,
Keeler, Robinson, Brouthers, Hanlon,
Clark, Brodie, Mcmahon, and others
His method OF handling men and his
ability to get the best out Of them re-
suited in the Tigers winning the Amer
lean League pennant three successive

period OF two years at a largely in
creased salary. He will remain in vaude-
willie until it is time to take his team
South for their annual spring training.

New York, Jan. Frank Chance, the
new manager OF the Highlanders. should
revolutionize major league baseball in
Greater New York. Heretofore the
Giants have had things too much. their
own way, even for their own good.
1t is indeed a peculiar city in this
generation of mad sport that will not
lavish its very tenderest affections upon
winning major league baseball team.
But New York always has been, and al
ways will he an eccentric proposition.
1t has returned tribute to its idolized
Giants. but not in the same measure as
it should.
For the somewhat constrained enthusi-
asm the Hill tribe has been to blame.
FarrelIs forces have been doing bust
ness in this bailiwick for ten seasons and
IN all that time figured seriously in the
final reckoning but twice. Under Clark
Griffith in both 1901 and in 1905 the Kilties
were Just barely nosed out by Boston
and Chicago, respectively. In 1901 the
brave fight was overshadowed because
the Polo Grounders won the pennant
The disappointment in 1903 was doubly
keen because that year the Giants
proved the greatest disappointment of
history and finished fourth when every
one expected them to cop a third
straight flag.
Every other year. without exception
the Giants laid II away over their rivals
1t is true that the two local teams fin
ished second in either league in 1910.
The Giants were a much better second
than the Yankees. however, and vindi-
Gated their claims to distinction by trim
ming the American Leaguers in the only
post season series ever played by the
local rivals. So altogether the Giants
the Highlanders have been a continual
disappointment.
This condition of affairs has hurt both
teams-the Americans. of course, far the
more. McGraw was one of the happiest
men in the country when hei learned that
Frank Chance had been engaged to man.
age his rival.
TT will be the salvation of baseball in
New York" said McGraw. Il am glad
that Chance is coming. for consider him
one of the greatest managers in all base
ball history. He cannot fail to improve
the American League here. And that will
be great thing for me. 1t will prove
the greatest incentive of my life. For it
will make me work with renewed energy
to maintain the supremacy of my league
against the man who has proved for many
years my greatest stumbling block
More than that" continued Mac, 'it
