LOGAN CUNNINGHAM IS
SURE NORTH CAROLINA
WILL HAVE FAST TEAM
Former Princeton Head Coach Thinks Tar Heels Will Give Wr
gna Tough Fight at Richmond-NeaIe Will Again Face
Georgetown for West Virginia Wesleyan.
By LOUIS A. BOUCHER

while the material have seen is
rather green, nevertheless, l think
North Carolina should have a strong
eleven this coming season and be
able to make good showing
against Virginia at Richmond"
This is what Logan Cunningham,
former head coach at Princeton, has
to say about the chances of North
Carolina on the gridiron this year.
Cunningham, who was star ath-
lete at Central High School here
before making his mark as long dis
tance punter and dropkicker in the
Princeton backfeld, is TO assist
"Tol" Pendleton in tutoring North
Carolina this year and this means
that the best features of the Orange
and Black style of play will be seen
On Southern fields this fall.

MeQlCOS Will Jackie cunning All
proteges at Chapel Hill. Much hard
work is in line in order to prepare
the team for these early games. The |
weather will probably be too warm |
for comfort and the greatest care will |
have to be taken to keep the beefy |
lads from dropping too many pounds. |

leyan eleven last fall. may be seen in |
action again at the Hilltop on Octo- |

that, instead Of going to some other !
West Virginia institution, Neale has !
decided to return to Wesleyan and |
will try for the team. Neale's cap |

tured the game with Georgetown last /
season. He has been playing profess |
sional baseball this summer in Can |

The Washington times., 1914-09-03

Sometimes we wonder whether or
not the quality of baseball has i'm
proved as much in the last ten or
fifteen years as a good many seem
to think. Take the case of the Ros-
tor Braves. For two months this
club has been playing the best ball
in its league. l. has beer the best
hall club in its league since July /,
beyond any doubt.
And then compare the Braves with the
last Boston National Leabue club to win
pennant. That club, back in 1s9S-six-
teen wears ago-had such pitchers as
Nichols. Willis. and KlobedanZ. 1t had
Fred Tenney at first, Bobby Lowe at
second. Herman Long at short. and
Jimmy Collins at third. 1t had Haml-
ton. Duffy, and Stahl in the outfeld.
In almost every position, save in the
box and at second base. 1t outclassed
the present Braves in playing skill, but
not in playing courage. In at least
seven of the nine positions the old ma
chine was the better.
Take tho Giants McGraw has led
them to three pennants But who will
pared with the old Orioles that started
John J. on his career? With Brouthers,
ReitZ, Jennings. and MCGraw. the Ori-
oies had 4 much better infield, and a
much better outficld with Bill Keeler,
Joe Kelley. and Steve Brodie on guard
Mechanical skill undoubtedly has i'm
proved as old Doc Time Careened along
his way. But there are not nearly as
many ball players out there studying
the game. nor are there many replete
with the keen wisdom Of the old guard
This may be due to the development of
play that I'm large measure
brushes individual play and stifies In
dividual teamwork. The game is set
more in a groove. The manager does
most of the thinking. and directs the
bulk Of the attack.
