WILLARD SEEMS TO
Be NEXT IN LINE
He Is Now Most Logical Op-
ponent for Conqueror
of PaIZer.

NEW YORK, January At is highly
probable that Luther McCarty will find it
convenient to sidetrack the few remain
ing hopes who threaten his reign until he
has finished theatrical tSur. such as in
variably follows a notable success in the
ring. The elimination of AL Palzer in such
decisive fashion makes the newly ere
ated champions future look exceedingly
bright. But there still remains some work
for him to do before he can feel himself
securely seated on the white heavyweight
throne
That McCarty can justly claim to be
the holder of the new title, despite his
possession Of the McCarey belt will be
disputed in some quarters. Most of this
opposition will come from Gunboat Smith,
Bombardier Wells and Jess Willard. OF
these the siX-foot six-inch form of Will
hard looms up the most menacing of all
1t can be argued that Wells was elimi-
mated when he lost to Palzer Smith, al
though a terrific hitter. is not so much of
boxer. and. besides. is badly handi-
capped in the matter of weight. But Will
llard's right to the next match with Pal
zer's conqueror cannot be argued away.
Willard and McCarty already have
crossed arms. and the result was not al
together favorable to McCarty In fact
during the last two rounds of their ten
round bout, McCarty looked to be all
primed for a knockout He was badly
cut up. while Willard escaped without
mark. After that affair many of the crit
les could see no hope for McCarty, and
put him down as a greatly overrated fight
err. If the bout had had ten more rounds
to go, Willard would have been ten-to-
one favorite. with no takers. But McCarty
has since shown great improvement Still
Willard also has learned a lot since
then.
Willard is very mysterious person.
The exact extent of his ability is still
very uncertain Even his closest friends
do not understand him. "A queer fell
low. a very queer fellow" was Charlie
Cutters comment while discussing Will
Soldier kearns. Cutler is the wrestler
puSilist who helps Willard train and as
sists making his matches. Many shrewd
managers have made overtures to Will
lard. He will have none of them. As
one of them explained it, Willard believes
he can look after his own interests and
thus obliterate the necessity of splitting
the proceeds with manager He figures
that he is now so prominent he cannot
be overlooked, and needs no manager
with the necessary influence in fistic cir
cies to secure for him a championship
match.

enter upon their physical course with
minds heavily laden with business cares.
AS they swing their dumbbells they
think about bills receivable and payable.
They worry about credit. They chafe I'M
der the contemplation of tomorrow, next
week and next month. They are afraid
of the future.
That kind of physical recreation does
not help them. 1t poisons them. 1t adds
to their staleness. 1t dwarfs them. 1t
binds them down to still narrower con-
fines. Their exercise only adds to their
fatigue, and fills them with the poisons
Of fatigue. which are quite as real as
any other poisOns.
The man who would enjoy physical eX-
ercise should learn to enjoy something
else-such as books. or clubs or outings.
He should first of all learn how to isolate
his mind from his business worries When
he has achieved that. he may enter upon
his course Of physical training with the
assurance that it will do him some good.
But the mind bound down to the office
remains there in fact even though the
body be bending. or going through some
meaningless rhythm that is supposed to
bring about regeneration.
No man can be greater than his point
of view.

COBB WILL NOT GET
THREE-YEAR CONTRACT
President Navin Says His Star
Will Not Be Signed for
That Period.


DETROIT, January 4.-Tyrus Raymond
Cobb will not get a three-year contract.
President Frank Navin Of the Detroit
base ball cub made that very positive
statement. Just why Frank is averse to
signing up the Georgia Peach for three
years was not explained.
1t is not likely that Cobb will even
start to slip for three years, but there
is always the possibility Of an accident
which would rob him of his tremendous
speed and dash. Certainly the southerner
will not have become aged or decrepit
in another trio of seasons. He has just
passed his twenty-sixth birthday, and, as
he takes good care Of himself, ought to
last for long time yet.
What seems more likely explana ton
of the Detroit clubs preference for a
one-year contract is that Mr. Navin may
find it more convenient to give Tyrus a
very large sum for a single season and
then taper off than to book him for the
triple appearance at a salary that would

Fitness for Business Men

Too much work. mental or physical. is
like too much rain or a superabundance
of sunshine. Men. like plants. must have
a variety. Continued along one line, the
result is unsa tisfactory. And the time is
apt to come when any man goes stale.
There are plenty Of authors. painters
and professional men who once appeared
to glitter along the trail toward the top
of their callings. They worked tooth and
claw to get up to the top. but the day
came when they began to dry-rot, and
their grip and punch were gone.
Athletes go stale sometimes. 1t may
be a temporary, passing condition. It
may be permanent. But through the very
force of entertaining they sink into that
condition where everything looks dull
drab to them. and they have neither the
interest nor the force to proceed.
Now. the average business man takes
to physical exercise chiefly to relieve his
nerves and body of the strain Of inces-
SAINT labor He wants to keep the fighting
edge that will carry him through.

Hal Chase Says Nationals
Trio of Backstops Is
Best in League.
NEW PITCHER is SIGNED
WHO HAS GOOD RECORD
Victor BiCkers Won 20 Out of
% Games in the Semi
Pro League.
BY J. ED GRILLO.

Even though John Henry has to un-
dergo an operation. there is no need for
worrying about the Nationals catching
staff. Henry will undoubtedly be ready
to take his turn behind the bat when the
season opens, and the most encouraging
kind of news comes from Eddie Ainsmith
down in Texas as to his condition.
Manager Griffith received letter from
his youthful catcher this morning. stating
that he had entirely recovered and that
he was now in better physical condition
than he has been in years.
Ainsmith and Alva Williams could take
care of the catching department il it
should be necessary for them to assume
this task. Both are hard workers and
Williams can catch every day without
going stale.
According To the New York Sun Hal
Chase believes that Washington has the
best trio of catchers in the league. Here
is what il says:
Hal Chase says that the best young
catchers in the American League are
.Ainsmith, Henry and Williams of the
Washingtons. He cannot understand
why the Red Sox parted with Williams.
Chase also believes that Schalk, the ten
thousand-dollar catcher of the White
Sox, Will be a star next season; that Al
exander. the young backstop uncovered
by the ST Louis Browns last fall, will
be heard from. Incidentally Prince Hal
is sure that Chance will make a first
class catcher out of Charley Sterrett. the
former Princeton College man..
While there IS hardly a chance of Griffith
accepting the offer of the Brownsville
Tex. business men to build a training
grounds and house for the Nationals this
year, il is probable that he will make
some arrangements to go there next year.
Griffith wants a training place Of his own.
He figures that it would be of benefit to
any city to have him go there every
spring, and he expects Brownsville or
some other town to make concessions to
have him so there.
Another pitcher has been added to the
Nationals staff. He is Victor Bickers,
who lives in Buffalo. Bickers is young
ser who won twenty out of twenty-five
games for a semi-pro team out in In
dianapolis last summer. Bill Shannon. a.
shortstop in the big leagues some years
ago. recommended Bickers to Griffith. He
describes him as a six-footer. who may
make great pitcher, and Griffith is going
TO take q chance on him.

ENGELHORN INELIGIBLE.
Dartmouth Tackle Will Not Play
Next Year.

HANOVER, n. H., January 4-Because
T. Engelhorn. recently elected captain Of
the Dartmouth College foot ball team
for next season, discovered that he was
ineligible under the so-called three-year
rule, the Dartmouth athletic council ac-
copied his resignation.
No date has been set for the election
of new captain.
Engelhorn told the council he had
played on the Washington State College
foot ball team a year before coming to
Dartmouth. The council decided that
this, with his two years of service on the
Dartmouth eleven, rendered him ineligible
to play another season.

average up the same in the long run.
Good friends of Cobb's say that he is
very anxious to claim the honor of being
the highest paid man who ever played
base ball It would bestow upon him a
sort of distinction that he much covets.
Having achieved this ambition to reach
a mark that nobody else had touched in
the past and that nobody would be likely
to attain in the future, he would be will
ing to accept somewhat less for the fu-
ture years of his service.
Mr.. Navin will not announce what he
is to pay Cobb for 1913 in case the Peach
signs up.
