WORLD IS TOUR
IS AMBITION Of
JOHN NJ GRAW
Leader Of Giants Always Has De-
sired to Make Trip Around
the Globe.
Bv Otto @. Floto.

~ FNVER, Nov. 15.-What 10 the
one big sport event that is at
tracing the attention Of the
fans throughout America? 1t Is the
tour of the baseball players around
the world. There can be no argu-
ment against this statement. True,
we have our big college struggles on
the ribboned field. but these gridiron
battles interest, as rule. only the
colleges between which they are
played or the section of the country
where they are staged. The very
fact that two of our leading baseball
teams, reinforced by star players from
other clubs, are encircling the globe
that Is the one big noise on which
the sporting calcium Is focused at
this time.
Trip His Ambition.
1t was from McGraw himself
learned how the trip came to be a
reality. You know" he said. cit
has always been my ambition to make
the trip Ever since the first day l
read about the Spalding trip, while I
was still a youngster at Truxton,
New York. l made up my mind that
If ever l amounted to anything in
baseball, this trip would be one Of
the ambitions of my life. Then along
came Mr., Comiskey with the same
hot %, a
voted our whole lives to baseball, 1t
was easy to come to an understand
ing.
After or rather during, our first
talk about the trip Comiskey said,
John, | suppose you know there will
be no money in the venture?'
Great Thing for Baseball.
Il thought for a moment and then
told him that it was not the finan-
cial side l looked at, but the great
thing 1t would be for baseball and
the fact that l was one of those in
strumental in making 1t a possibility
was pay enough for me.
"Comiskey assured me that he held
no different views, but wanted to
make this statement so that he would
be certain that l understood it that
way before we got any deeper into
the scheme. Another object of the
trip Is to show to the world how
American athletes can behave.
"What'n you do In countries where
they have no ball parks?" | asked
McGraw. why, we carry the bases
and the home plate with US, also a
tape measure. So you see 1t won't
take but few minutes to lay out a
diamond wherever we may chance to
be" replied the Giant leader. Many
Of US here in the land of the Yankee
hadn't given this matter a thought
and now know how things will be
provided for the green swarth" of
the foreign lands that our American
players visit.

Family Of Heavies Has Dwindled
Smith Looks Like Best of Lot

THE coming bout will be his first
since the lamentable affair at Cal
gary, and to his credit be It said that
he is making no bones about tackling
the most dangerous man in sight. A
championship is a championship, no
matter under what conditions ii Is
acquired, and 1t was in Pelky's power
to select his own opponents for a
while. as champions of lighter weight
have been doing right along,
Instead he has elected to go against
Gunboat Smith, who would doubtless
have been the heavyweight chosen for
him II the matter had been left to a
popular vote.
1t is well to remember this If Pei
ky will go on with the bout with
hard hitting Gunboat There is so
much shilly- shallying with your
champions and near champions now
adays, that a man that does the
sportsman like thing is worthy of a
kind thought.
Frank Moran, who is abroad at
present beguiing himself with the be-
lief that he is going TO get crack
at Jack Johnson, is hard man to size
up. There was astonishment In San
Francisco when the news came over
the wires that he had knocked out Al
Palzer. The local fight followers have
seen Moran In action on many occa-
sions and had about concluded that
they knew everything he was capa-
BILE of.
LIE must have improved" was a
common remark when the result
of the go Fith Palzer was made
known Non that 1t has been made
to appear that Palzer has become a
mark for every new heavyweight re-
cruit, doubt Is expressed as to wheth-
er Moran has made any gain as a
boxer. He will be watched from this
end, and If he gives evidence of the
possession of class, he will be looked
upon as a fellow who was finally
licked into shape rather than one who
performed brilliantly from the begin
ming,
Carl Morris name at present Is on
the lips Of thousands of sportsmen
who have never seen him in action.
They have taken their cue from the
New York critics and they have ar
rived at the conclusion that the big
OkIahoman is deserving Of another
bout with Gunboat Smith.

This New Giant Pitcher
Should Be TemperamentaI,
For He's a Cuban Lefty

Palmero, a Cuban left handler, is
the latest addition to the Giants
pitching staff On the form the
youngster has shown in Havana he
stands a good chance of being a
sensation next season.
Palmero has just pitched three
remarkable games OF ball against
the strong Birmingham Southern
League team. The first time he
faced them he let them down with
out hit He was hit safely three
times in the second and four times
in the third, scoring three shut
outs.
Palmero is but 20 years old. and.
according to the Havana experts,
is by far the best pitcher Cuba has
turned out. This Is a strong state
ment, for 1t was conceded that
Mendez was as clever a performer
as baseball has ever produced

if it never will be. The trouble is that

At this date a match between Gun

HOW DESERVING BUT POOR

why not give a chautauqua ticket
to some deserving person who would

one of the leading merchants of Co
lumbia this morning to a representa-
tive of The Herald.
This idea of thus disposing of sur
plus tickets IS not original with me"
continued the merchant, but was
suggested by citizen of big heart
who-refused to pool his tickets. This
citizen had subscribed for ten tick
cts and when asked to pool replied
that he would need FIVE for his FAM
lily and that he had five deserving
friends who would enjoy the chautau-
qua but were not able to buy tickets.
He therefore intended to give them
a ticket each. Now 1t strikes me
that others could do the same thing
with profit to themselves. l am go

We must help the farmer to get on

He must use better methods in farm
ing. He must be taken by easy
stages, step at time. 1t is worse
than useless to offer him something
out of his reach
We can provide better rural
schools. We can improve the public
roads. We Tan assist in getting bet
ter live stock in the country. We can
show the farmers the advantage to
them in community specializing in
live stock. We can emphasize the
Importance Of the vocation of farm
