'FAVORS MORE
ATHLETICS
1T SHOULD BE COMPULSORY IN
ALL COLLEGE COURSES

Philadelphia, Pa, March 26-Ten
years ago we would have been highly
offended at a charge made by an Eng
lishman that our athletes specialize
too much. But times and manners
have so changed since then that the
latest lectures from Vivian Nickalis,
the English rowing coach at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, instead of
arousing our patriotic indignation are
heartily welcomed by that fast grow
ing host of college athletes and ath-
letic directors that is striving to en-
courage more men to get out and do
something all the year round, Nick
ais says:
athletic exercises ought to be
compulsory part of every university
education as they not only develop
q man physically, but develop his
character more than any amount of
study, and | do not consider that
enough time is given in American
universities to outdoor exercise.
do think the American specializes too
much, but it is not so much the man
as the coaches who make him spec
ialize and do not take up sport for
the exercise, but more for the glory
and fame attached to it. A better
spirit is wanted in that direction ani
am doing all l can here to make
my oarsmen go out for football in
the fall, so that they can keep in
good trim.
Il never found that athletic exer-
else hurt my work at Oxford. 1t IS
up to the man himself. He can
study from 8 to 1 and from to 10
or II, and that is quite enough. If
he does more without exercise he
will only get "muddle-headed."

BIC SHOW TEAMS

N0-HIT HEROES
STARS HAVE HELD OPPONENTS
HELPLESS WHILE WORKING IN
UNDERGRADUATES HAVE MANY
OF THE MEN ON TEAM

There will be on view in the major
leagues this coming season whole
flock of no-hit heroes, for many of the
prominent hurlers in the Johnson,
Tener and Gilmore organizations de-
MED their opponents hits when they
were working in the Glass AA, B, CI
and D leagues. On the Cardinal pitch
ing staff, for example, there are five
plen who have twirled games in which
their adversaries failed to garner a
bingle. Booth Hopper, the young man
Robert Bresnahan traded for a hunt
ing dog, having two hitless perform
.ances to his credit. Both, incidentally,
were against the same club-Pittsfeti
OF the Eastern Association-and they
came close together, one on April q,
one on May IA. Joe Willis pitched two
no-hit affairs when he was in the
Three-Eye League and George Frank
lin Suggs, Kingston, N. C.'s best
known citizen, once went for eleven
innings without permitting any sae-
,eties. This was on Sept s, 1906, when
he was with Memphis and his victims
were the Nashvilles. Suggs was an
iron man that afternoon, for after get
ting this no-hit combat out of his
system he turned in and BANKED his
opponents in the afterpiece of q
double-header, then allowing seven
asafeties.
Niehaus, another Cardinal curver
equalled Suggs' record of not permit
ting a safety for eleven innings when
he was with Charleston Of the Noun
tain States League in 1911. He won
his game, 1 to 0, striking out sixteen
men, and by an odd coincidence the
man who opposed him was George
Raumgardner of the Browns. The
American Lacquer, then with Hunting
ton, kept pace with Niehaus for ten
rounds, and, weakened in the eleventh,
allowed three hits. Baumgardner's
strike-out victims totaled fourteen.
Grant of the Boston Red Sox when
he was with the Beaumont (Texas)
League team in 1912, was the author
of longer no-hit game than either
Suggs or Niehaus. He travelled twelve
innings without allowing a safety aud

THAT submarines are new potent

able. Our success so far, however,
hardly justified the conclusion that
big ships have become obsolete. We
have always figured that submarines
could not stay out more than three
days on account OF the men becoming
exhausted. We now learn that the
larger types have cruised clear around
England and often remained out for
IA days. This is accomplished by
