But there is one player in the Amer

been of such steady and stellar "aliber

consideration by the committee when

Bender of the Philadelphia Athletics,
Indian pitcher.
Bender, almost unaided, has main
tanned the Philadelphia team in the

WHY GO BACK TO THE OLDEN TIMES
 OF BUYING AND SELLING ATHLETES?

writer of London in an article, on the British failure at Stockholm, is very loud in his demands that future games should be open to both profes- s1ona1 and amateur athletics, but he does not get any support from his brother scribes. He seems to forget the old saying that history repeats it. Sc fl The ancient Olympic games of Greece were first confined to purely amateur athletes of Greece, the re- wards being nothing more than branch of olive leaves taken from the sacred grove supposed to have been planted by Hercules. As Grecian in fluence extended competitors were al- lowed from Egypt, Asia and other parts of Europe, and finally in the Roman period we find champions visiting the games from all parts of the empire. Professional athletes were not long in making their ap- pearance, with the result that the far famed games were degraded to the level of a dubious trade and they were suppressed by Emperor Theodosius in 394 A. D. That a similar fate would overtake the modern revival of the games appears to be practically cer- tain. Buying and selling of athletes would take place and the celebration lose both it's present international character and the very high patron age it now enjoys.

The meeting took place in Montreal on April 6, 1906. and the ceremony of introduc- ton lasted less than a quarter of an hour Then the terrible Turk went away from there, totally disi1lusioned and the Turk met during the course of an international wrestling tourna- rnent held in Montreal, and the dis ciple of the Prophet had been eating infidel giaours alive until Gotch ap- peared on the scene With his appe- tite whetted for more infidel meat, the Turk went at the dog of an in fidel' hammer and tongs, mUttering threats as to what he intended to do to the Christian cur" The Turk didn't know a lot of English, but he had mastered the word enough and he soon had occasion to use it.

 IN SLUGGING MATCH

Frank Chance led his doughty band of HighIanders into the lair of the skeeters in west Side Park, Jersey City, yesterday, and in defiance of wintry blasts and fIurries of snow which swept across the diamond ex- terminated the Pests in workmanlike fashion. The score was IS to 2.
 Chances men hit the ball hard, field ed perfectly and showed speed on the bases. Chance preferred not to play. That was a disappointm to the fans but first base was well covered for the visitors bH the youngster, Malcolm Barry.
 Long George Mcconnell was in charge of the delivery department at the start for the visitors and eliminat- ed all chance of Jersey City scoring by restricting the home crew to two hits in the five rounds he was on the rub Der. Hoff pitched the last four rounds for New York, and his lapse of con trol in the final canto enabled the Skeeters to sidestep a whitewash, two hits and a pair of passes accounting for the two taIlies made by Schiahy 8 men.
 Jack Doescher, who showed so well against Chances men in their Der muda practice games, was easy pick ing for the Highlahders, and was driven to cover. at the end of two rounds. Nine hits and eleven runs were charged against him. Viebahn assumed the task when Doescher re- signed, and held the New Workers to a pair of tallies in the interval he oc- cupied the mound.

 IN PRINCETON CREW

Princeton, N J., April 7-Duncan J.

Princeton faces the busiest season in her rowing his tory this spring, with races against Pennsylvania, Columbia, Harvard and the Navy, and there is a corre- spondingly keen competition for seats In the Tiger boat.
 Since the crews have taken to the water Logan, McKibbon and Quinn by have been relegated to the second boat and Chester, BushlIinsky and Putnam have been recognized for varsity honors. Putnam, though a sophomore, is now rowing stroke and bids fair to continue in this place throughout the season. Chester, who is a New York boy, is inexperienced in varsity work and is being closely watched by pr. Spaeth. His develop ment since the spring work began has been exceptional.
