bdecathlon and the pentathlon will
hardly be surpassed, but his other
Olympic figures may be shattered in
1916. Cornell's star is Alma Richards,
the most promising bit of timber in
sight for the next Olympics. Here are
some of Richards performances to
date:
16-pound shot put-42 feet six in.
Running broad jump-22 feet six in.
Running high jump feet in.
Pole vault-10 feet eight in.
1OO-yard dash-1O 4-5 seconds.
Richards is already grooming him
self for the events. He is trying him
self out for the decathlon, the hurdles
and the discus events In all these
branches of track and field sports he
has shown promise. t.&ft
" Headgear for Norman.
Chattanooga, March 14.-Norman
Elberfield, who has signed as assist
ant coach to Wilbert Robinson of the
Brooklyn Nationals, will wear head
gear if he plays any games next sea-
son with the Brooklyns. Aside from
helping Robby to COACH Elberfield
will also act as utility man. Elber-
/ field quit ball playing last year be-
cause of an injury to his head. After
he was hit by a pitched ball Elber-
| field was troubled with a nervous
complaint and pains in his head
These had disappeared, but if he is
called upon by Robby to play, the
| "Tobasco Kid" will use leather
headgear for protection.

Telegraphie advice was received
this morning at the X. NJ. c. A. build
ing to the effect that the Albuquer-
que campaign for a Y. M. c. A. closed
at midnight last night with the much
sought for amount Of $4,000 pledged.
This insures an up-to1date building
for the young men and boys Of Albu-
querque, and the fraternal spirit
should wax warm between the two
New Mexico city associations.
The remarkable things about such a
campaign is that SO large an amount
Of money can be raised in such a short
time. international Secretary q. S.
Bllheimer has learned through years
Of experience in such efforts that
more money can be raised in 10 days
than in 10 weeks, and this idea has
found its way into all sorts Of cam
paigns in the Y. M. c. A., as well as
in many churches. The financial as
sistanoe needed BY the association is
provided for in the early part Of the
year and then it is done and out of the
way for whole year.

HALDEMAN is AN AMHERST VET
ERAN AND is A FAST
SPRlNTER

The Y. M. G. A. football team held
tits first practice last night since the
game with the Normal. Fifteen men
reported for practice, and the coach
is delighted with the prospects for the
Thanksgiving game with the Elks.
Several shifts have been made in
the lineup, and for the first time the
coach has an abundance Of material
for full team with substitutes. Hal
Ideman, new man, is hailed as find
at halfback. Haldeman tips the scale
at 2O5 pounds, and has reputation
as a sprinter. He gained his first
football experience at Amherst, where
he played on his college eleven at
halfback.
Cordova the little end, who was
shifted to the back field in Saturdays
game following Whites injury, will
hold down the other half position Cor
dova, though weighing but 14O pounds,
is exceptionally fast and has five
years experience as a back field man,
playing with the University Of New
Mexico and also on his school team in
the east.
White has been shifted to quarter
on account of Dowden's injury and
Stewart from half to the line. Just
1t the present the coach is puzzling |
,ver the tackle positions. With mex
,erienced ends and no suitable lines
men, some shift undoubtedly will have
o be made in the lineup. Stewart
md Mccullough possibly will be shift
ID from ends to tackles in order to
upply the needful weight for the line.
