Joy for the Golf Players

George Fitch in Collier's: After
many years of anxious waiting, the
first sign of the decreased cost of liv-
ing has appeared. Golf balls will be
slightly cheaper this year.
Those who do not play golf need not
emit a rude, derisive snort at this
statement. They little realize its su-
preme importance. A golf ball is at
the best a vexatious and disappoint-
ing performer, but when it rolls gent
ly down a hill and buries itself for
ever under dried leaf while its owner
hunts for it at the top of his voice
provided there are no ladies present
it becomes maddening affliction.
To unwrap a snow white ball costing
rs cents, hit it once on the left shoul-
der, and then hunt vainly for it while
the whole world comes up and plays
through, is about as irritating a per-

Two events will be carded in the

teams. Each of the teams will con-

lively interest in baseball.

formance as there is on this infuriat-
ing sphere. Men who have watched
thousands of dollars melt away on the
stock exchange without murmur
have lost three golf balls in an after
noon and have gone back to business in
the morning full of contempt for
peace and compromise. Men have lost
golf balls and gone home and said the
last things necessary to lose family.
Once we had a president who played
golf. How do we know which caused
the Winona speech and the rift in the
lephant-natural stubbornness or
few lost golf balls? The latter would
have been ample provocation.
Until golf balls came down in price
to the point where they can be lost
with perfect cheerfulness, they will
continue to exercise grave effect
upon the business and diplomacy of
the country. We should, therefore, hail
the beginning of the descent with re-
lief as national blessing.

Football SOlOns to Meet

New York, Feb. 5.-Whether the
sentiment of public demands that foot
ball players wear numbers on their
backs, so that spectators may tell at
a glance the identity of the player, is
the most important matter which will
come up before the annual meeting
Of the football rules committee, which
is to be held here tomorrow and Sat
urday at the Hotel Martinique Foot
ball experts who gathered here to-
day to attend the meeting were about
evenly divided on the question. Those
who will favor the plan declared today
that the change would mean. vast
increase of interest by the general
public in the gridron sport. Delegates
who are here today said they believe
few changes will be made this year in
the playing rules.

Frank Menke's
Sporting Letter

New York, Feb. 5.-It's consid-
cred awfully vulgar and common these
days for prize fighting persons to wear
the names given them at the baptis-
NAL fonts. In their efforts to be fash
ionable the pugilistic persons have so
far obliterated their childhood names
that fond and loving parents are able
to identify their fighting offsprings
now solely throught the medium of
birthmarks, gold filled teeth >r fond
ness for certain FOODS and liquids.
Willie Richie, lightweight cham
pion, isn't Willie Ritchie at all. He's
Geary Steffens, the same being Ger
man name, which gives lie to the COM
mon belief that Willie is English or
Welsh. Willie was Geary until he sub
stituted one p. m. for fighter named
Willie Richardson who was to take part
in some preliminary scrap, but failed
to be among those present. Geary
whaled the daylights out of his op-
ponent and the crowd being unaware
of the substitution, huzzahed loudly
for Willie Richardson. Geary then de
cided to grab off the name for him
self. Later he changed it to Ritchie.

Louis Wallach-that's the name
Leach Cross used to wear. But friends
commenting upon his showing during
his first ring engagement declared
that he hung onto his opponent like
a "leech" and he Uouis) seemed as
"cross as a bear" whenever his oppon-
ent smote him upon the proboscis. And
there you are-Leach Cross.
When the late Stanley Ketchel made
his first ring appearance the referee
asked his name "Stanisiaus KiecaP'

to twist his tongue around it, failed
and turned to the fighter and snorted:

will pitch for the New Iork Ameri-

appeared at President Farrell's office
today after coming from Chicago with
the Yankees scout, Arthur Irwin.
Several weeks ago Cole was induced
to sign with the Chicago FedeIals by
Joe Tinker efter he had named salary
terms which had been accepted by
President Farrell Of the local club.
Cole said that his lawyer had ad-
vised him that the acceptance of his
terms by Farrell constituted a legal
contract and that he had come here to
fix the matter up. He said:

OF FEDERALS
ALWAYS PICKS WINNERS
(Urited Press Day Serviccj

Chicago, Feb. 5.-Something like 20
years ago nervous youngster with a
bright red tie, S. bill and an empty
"tummy" dropped off train from
Richmond, Ind, and headed straight
for bowl of soup. That marked the
first step in the 1914 invasion of the
major league organizations in base
ball by the "baby" Federals.
Today? Charles H. Weeghman, the
nervous lad with the brilliant tie, the
five "bones" and the consuming ap-
petite, owns ten restaurants, theatre,
billiard hall, part of coal company
and most of the Chicago Federal
club stock. He gathered them together
on program Of Is hours day, push
ed along by lot Of pure nerve.
The man who broke into sport
prominent by plucking Joe Tinker for
his manager right from under the nose
of Charley Ebbetts, thereby spelling
another dedication day at the Brooklyn
field, is only SO years old-and he
hardly looks it. Sometimes he is picked
as just one of the dappcr youths who
play at his billiard parlors.
But getting back to the prosaic en-
try into the Windy City of the lad
from Richmond.
81 had been up to Chicago to see
the worlds fair, and ] was all 'het
up, ;" said Weeghman. "When l got
home, | told the folks it was me for
the Windy City, Dad was a black
smith with six children. He didn't kick,
SO | trekked for Chicago"

youngster to a lunch counter in a mod

deceiver. He wasn't Irish. He was

Mccoy was Norman Selby. Bill Lang,

Young Corbett, former lightweight

Ernest Cutler Rice" Wildcat Ferns
is Clarence McCubbins-a very tame
name. Charley White of Chicago is
Charley Anchovitz. Kid Williams, the
Baltimore bantam, was Jonathan
Guetencko when he lived in Denmark.
Eddie Campi, the coast battler, is Ed
ward De Campus. Harry Lewis was
Henry Besterman, which name ought
to have satisfied him for ring use, but
didn't.
"Knockout" Browns name is Valen-
tine Braun. George Chip, the new
star in the pugilistie armament, was
George Chipulonis. Tony Ross, the
old war horse, used to barber peo.
pie under his right name-Anthony
Rossilano.
Charlie Miller, the "white hope
who came from San Francisco, used
to be motorman there under the
name Of Joseph Costlemagna.

ings, but such action would be dull
going after the playing season is once
on. The Feds have claimed that they
have lot more players, but, coylike,
did not announce them all at once.
Talk of slathers of money, ball
parks and major league stars that
have been signed will do when the sea-
sions are around the stove, but when
the meeting is called to order just back
of first base it means something else
again. The Federals may produce the
something else. This is one time when
the baseball fan stands to lose moth
ing and gain lot. But with the old
timers back in the field, and the smell
of the game in the air it will take real
baseball and not conversation to make
the Federals third major league.
This interna tional tinge to various
sporting events for 1914 is getting to
a place where it smears the entire
landscape. With the yacht races, ten
mis-, golf and polo lined up in real in
ternational array two foreign entrants
may be included for the indoor tennis
championships next month and the
Pennsylvania relay races in April will
also have foreign starters. Harrow
university of England has entered ii
team in the four mile championship
A. N. S. jackson, the Olympic 1900
meter champion, will captain the team.
Germany and Sweden are also consid-
cring sending teams and if the Uni
versities from these countries are not
represented this year it is almost GER
tain they will be on hand for 1915.
Oxford will be represented this year.
Three relay races will be run to
determine the championship of the
world. One will be at one mile, each
man to run 440 yards; the second at
four miles, each man to run one mile
and the third at two miles, each one
to run one half mile.

Freddie Welsh, the English light

Freddie Welsh, the English light
weight, was Freddie Thomas during
his school days. One day someone
asked him if he was Welsh, meaning
of Welsh descent. Freddie, It's said,
answered that 81 am Welsh" and a
sporting scribe thought he meant that
was his name.
Johnny Dundee, the New York
scrapper, isn't Scotch, as his name
would indicate. His right name is
Joseph Carrora. Whom Johnny en-
tered the fighting game and took un-
to himself "Scotty" Monteith, a Scot,
as manager, "Scotty's" first stunt
was to change his protege's name.
There is a bit of mystery as to
what the family name of Gunboat
Smith was. His first name is Ed
ward. The Gunboat part came about
through the dual fact that Smith was
sailor and that a sport writer once
referred to him as "ramming' his op-
ponent.
Jack Britton, the Chicago battler,
was Willie Breslin. Joe Rivers was
Joseph Rievera. Sailors Burgess
