Interest In Rowing Stimulated Be-
lief Of Coach.

The new crew coaching system at
Cornell, which went into effect recent
~. is expected to materially increase
the interest of the student body as q
whole in rowing. Under the arrange
ment between the Athletic council and
the Inter college Athletic board, the
college crews arc to be coached by
John Hoylc, under the direct supervis-
ion of Charles Courtney. The new sys-
tenn will give the college oarsmen Il
regular coach and will assure them the
daily advice of Courtney. Rowing UNI
der Courtney's instruction is likely To
stimulate interest in the college crews
and form a better source of supply for
the varsity boats than here tofore. BY
the new arrangement the number of
men will be largely increased The
equipment of the university and col
lege navics will be practically mcrgel.
In speaking of the new system

CARPENTER is BUSY MAN.
French Champion Has Number of En-.
easements Ahead.

New York, March 23.--lf Georges
Carpenter goes Through with all the
matches he is reported to have made
the noted F'renchman will have a
strenuous time during the next few
months. Langford, Jeanette and Me-
Goorty are all on the Frcnchman 5
schedule, according to various reports
Any one Of the three should give him
his hardest fight.
Whatever is in store for Carpenter
it must be admitted that he has al
ready made a remarkable record FOR
himself lie is probably the only pu-
gilist who has held a championship in
every class from bantam To heavy
weight.
Carpenter began boxing at IL years
of age and won the amateur bantam
championship of France at 10 years.
As his weight increased he transferred
his activities To the next class always
heading his division.
After he turned professional Carpcn-
tier met with several reverses but he
managed to win tie European middle
weight title, and finally, by defeating
Wells, the heavyweight championship.
Yet, despite this unique record, Car
pentier is now only 20 years of age.

FOOTBALL BEST
PAYING SPORT
Vast Sums of Money Expended by
U. S. Colleges for Athletics

New York, March 23.--The recent
publication of the various college ath-
letic associations annual financial
statement brings vividly to mind again
the large sums of money received and
expended in the course of n year for
the support of varsity sport. These
reports also point with unerring aim
To the sports and competitions which,
because of popular favor and attrac-
ton, not only pay for themselves but
carry the burden of others wherein the
expenditures are far i'm excess OF all
receipts and subscriptions.
Some years ago, during the period
when football was subjected to bitter
attack, a famous defender of the game
declared boldly that football, despite
all the sins charged against it, made
possible all the college sports which
the reformers were constantly COM
pairing with the gridiron game, much
to the latters detriment. That there
has been little change in the situation
i'm recent seasons is clearly evidenced
by these current athletic association
financial reports. Football is still the
big money maker and the sport that
supplies the funds for the support of a
majority of the other athletic teams
each year.
Some idea of the amount of money
received and disbursed by the football
authorities during season of approx
imately ten weeks may be gathered
from the annual reports of the Prince
ton and Harvard athletic associations,
These financial statements. SO far as
football is concerned. refer to the
season of 1912, but since there is not
much deviation from general aver
age they serve all practical purposes
when used on n comparative basis.
Princeton gate receipts for nine games
amounted TO $67,313, of which 1885
or more than onc-half was received
as the Tigers share of the Yale. Har-
ward and Dartmouth games. Against
this revenue were expenses amounting
To $36,O6i, showing Il balance Of $32,-
of all other sports combined.
No other sport at Princeton APP
preached these figures either in re-
ccipts or expenses. Baseball cost
$l5,03i while receipts were $50
500, leaving balance of So
$50. The track and field team
showed net loss of S3,9S2; gymnas-
tic association. $26s; basketball $4Og;
swimming, $7li; wrestling S91S and
rowing $166. Hockey showed a profit
of $75, which puts the ice sport in the
financial category with football and
baseball at Princeton.
At Harvard similar conditions pre-
vailed Football receipts amounted to
$lli,S64, against expenses of $3O,151,
showing that while the Crimson pro-
fits were $i6,47S greater than at
Princeton, the expenses were s5,9lS
less, but it must be taken into con-
sideration that Harvard with its con-
crete stadium escaped the wooden
stand upkeep necessary at Princeton.
Baseball at Harvard was a money
maker to the extent of $6.396, while
hockey made $3l2. Rowing showed a
net loss of $ll,5i1: track athletics 81
Os2; association football Sl,46l; La
crosse, $2,367 and gymnastics 1896.

QUEER JINKES"
IN BASEBALL
Superstition Is an Interesting Fac
tor With Many Managers

Superstition is one element in base
BAH dope" that no one can figure out
In fact, superstition plays an immense
part i'm all sports, Hugh Fullerton
writes. had a letter yesterday from
one of the managers of major leagues;
and in it he said:
THE team looks little better.
| think we have strengthened up in twu
positions. | would be hopeful but for
the fact that every load of barrels |
| have seen since leaving home has been
| full barrels"
| know this manager well; and his
| remark about the barrels is significant
| If he sees a load of empty barrels on
a wagon, he is as confident of winning
filed he is downheartcd. OF course Il
is foolish, but if | We're the owner of
that team | would hire a few wagons,
load them with empty barrels and
have them driven past the hotel sew
eral times; or better have them meet
the players as they are going to the
grounds for practice.
The idea that meeting a hay wagon
loaded with loose hay brings luck is
general in baseball. | have seen plaJ-
from such a load To wear in their caps.
Baled hay, ON the other hand, is UNI
lucky.
Frank Change is perhaps the most
superstitious OF the managers He has
dozen or more good and bad luck
signs. The worst thing he can think
of is to look at the scoreboard during
"a game. If he accidentally sees the
board the luck is sure to change. He
has had the sCoreboards moved on
two parks, SO he could not see them
from the bench. and always hunts .
seat from which it will be almost i'm
possible to see the score.
Clark Griffith, who SCOTS at all su-
perstitions and jokes about them, has
his pets. If Griff dreams that pitch
er is getting hit hard that pitcher is
kept out of the game. He says nc
isn't superstitious, but that it don't
pay To take chances.
There is major league manager
who a year ago was leader of "A team
that seemed the strongest in the cir
cult IT looked as if it would win as
certainly as anything in baseball can
he figured. one reporter picked the
team 10 win. That evening the man
agcr was gloomy.
II thought we'd win sure" he said.
81 never had a doubt until this morn
ing
whats gone wrong was asked.
"Why. that fellow picks us to win"
he walled. "ilc never was right about
anything. He's linked ug. If he'd
have picked us for fourth we'd have
won sure"
And his team didn't win.

BEARDSLEY DICTATES
 TERMS OF SURRENDER
TWO SUBTERFUGES FAIL TO LAND MURDEROUS FARMER,
 WHO oUTWITs OFFICERS.

Mayyille, N. Y, Jan 19-Sheriif Anderson failed today in two attempts to break the seyen-day siege of the Beardsley farm at Summerdale, and to arrest Edward Beardsley. In the first he used two out-of-town detec- tiyes, posing as photographers, to get closely enough to Beardsley to grap- pie with him. beardsley posed for a picture at the window, but never re- linquished his rifle and the detectiy s could not carry out their plan.
 Late this afternoon, Fred Beards ley a cousin of the besieged farmer: Axel Olson a friend, and Luther $. Lukin, county clerk, visited the out law The sheriff though Beardslay might surrender to Lukin Beardsley received them at the window and ta k ed freely, but did not surrender.
 "I will surrender on Wednesday, when the mother-in-law takes the kids he said. Then l am going to jail with Attorney Pickard If there's any monkey business from the sheriff and his gang then there's going to be trouble. I'm going to march to the jail without their help"
 Beardsley said the woman in the house, Mrs. Edna Pier, who was wounded by the accidental discharge of revolver last night, was all right.
 The fact that Beardsley seems to be preparing to make a legal defense has satisfied Sheriff Anderson that the man is sincere in his promise tc give himself up Wednesday. He will not, however, let an opportunity go by to capture him,

RAILWAY STRIKE
 HAS BEEN SETTLED
DISCHARGED EMPLoYES RETURN TO WORK AND ALL GRiEV-
 ANcEs ARE SETTLED.
Arbitration Is Declared Impossible by Officials, Who Urge That Agree ment Be Reached.

Albany, N. Y, Jan 19.-The strike on the Delaware and Hudson railway was settled tonight. Company off, ! cials met the unions demands hat they restore two discharged employees, Engineer James A. Lynch and Con ductor r. A. Shade to their former Do. sitions. All strikers will return to | duty immediately.
 C. w. w. Hanger, a memner or the federal board of mediation and con ciliation brought about the agree ment
 A settlsment was reached only aft CT Mir. Hanger had suggested to com pany officials that they yield to he demands of the men. Arbitration, he | declared, was impossible. Normal conditions would be restor- ed in few hours, union officials promised
 As soon as Clifford s. Sine, vice president and general manager of the railway, and union officials had sign ed the agreement, orders were sent out for .he men to report for work as | quickly as possible Many crews that l had been tied up at terminal points were notified by telegraph to resume their runs.
 Slade and Lynch were discharged more than year ago on the grounds of negligence. when a car on their train jumped he track and bumped miles. The union officials said the accident was unavoidable For several months the company and union officials debated the prop osition of restoring the men to work A week ago 98 per cent of the em- ployes voted to strike if Slade and Lynch were not restored.
 Early today the first body of men walked out At noon it was estimat- ed tha- 5000 men were out, and the entire system was paralyzed. Shop workers and office employees alone re- mained on duty.
 Less than two hours after the last striker had left his work MT. Hanger arrived here from New York and be- gan negotiations with the TWO sides. Mir. Sims agreed immediately to an arbitration. but union officials were firm in their demands. Within an hour Hanger had decided arbitration was impossible. So he drew up an agreement granting the demands, ob- tained MT. Sims signature, and the strike was declared off a few minutes later.
 In a statement, issued after the agreement had been signed, Mr. Sims said that the company officials had yielded to serve the best interests of the public. It was the railroad off cials who originally asked the federal board to intercede.
 No violence was reported as a re- suit of the strike.
